Stroper Chyme Picture

History of Stroper Chyme

Stroper Chyme was once one of the most heavily camped monsters in the game, back when it used to drop Archer's ring, an item used to make Sniper's ring. However, in July 2005 -- in an effort to thwart the profits of RMT -- SE changed Stroper Chyme so that the monster no longer dropped the Archer's ring. Information on that update, which affected other notorious monsters and items, can be viewed at July 19, 2005 Update Notes.

Stroper now drops the Shikaree ring, ex duplicate of the Archer's ring that cannot be used in recipes.

Stroper can also be found at G-9 and H-10.

Spawn Spot

I have a question about his spawn points. If I enter by the lake in the Plateau is that the easiest spot? He spawns at H-5 by the stairs right? Or am I in the totally wrong spot?
WTF

Stupid Ring

Possible to get Archer's Ring off this thing, probably... But I'm officially 0/100 and I'm not convinced. /em Cries.

I do like how I can outvoke pretty much anybody that comes along in North American prime time hours (JP is another story)... I've been called a bot, and I've had a GM call on me. Very funny stuff, the ultimate compliment I suppose.

I'm 100% manually controlled.
solo

soloed 53 RDM without it hitting me once
ah

Of all thes times I a have camped this, I officialy give it the VIP title. Bots are on this thing 24/7. I am currently 1/89 with my 52 thf/blm(nin)- yes I can solo it. I heard there was a rumor going around about using your tp during the fight. Meaning, ws= zero drop rate. I think it sounds alittle quirky but better safe then sorry. Still 1/89 I mustive been doing something wrong. ~~^~@

dragoon soloing
# Aug 30 2004 at 1:56 PM Rating: Default
a level 44 dragoon can solo it. I've done it before, but it will be a very close fight you'll have about 80 hitpoints left when it dies.
WHM
# Aug 30 2004 at 12:18 PM Rating: Default

RE: WHM
# Sep 26 2004 at 3:32 PM Rating: Decent
yeah im a 53 drk and it gets hit me hard just think what it will do to a whm/war
RE: WHM
# Sep 02 2004 at 9:41 PM Rating: Decent
maybe thats because a WHM/WAR dont have black magic to nuke him.

Since Stroper is a jelly type guy, he is very resistence to physical attacks. I'd say a any lvl 50+ wit a decent weapon can kill him. But u will have low life and not enough time to run to other spawn spot to get him again. A mage prolly around 45+ could solo it as well.

Im a 55 blm, i can kill Chyme in about 2-3 spells, then move on to the next place. Btw the spawn where its an open room (not the stairs), 2 bombs always spawn there. So if u see them die, just spam like crazy, also watch the weather sometimes for Wind or Water, about 10-20 sec the weather is up, a elemental will spawn in the area about 80% of the time.

Last thing, at where the stairs, i've once kill the Chyme(about the middle of the stairs), no drop. Then looked at the cliff(at the bottom of the stairs) and saw him again. There is sorta like 3 spawns spots for him. I only seen it 3 times which the Chyme spawned directly beneath the cliff. Anyways, has anyone else seen this

Im like 3/200's now =/

Some people in Kujata, are trying to say that i'm using a bot on this monsters.

I feel sorry for them since they are just telling me to leave or they'll call a GM, and i stayed ther and no GM :(

Also, im not using a bot.

this has happened to me at spook, and i have been reported twice. The GM will send u a pop up message that asks u something, and u select yes, no, afk (i dont know how u would select afk ><). then after u i selected one, he sent me a message saying "Please respond to this message with 'Hello'" i did, and he told me "thank you, have a good evening."

so if ppl acuse u of using a bot, tell them to report u, and let the gm handle it.

# Aug 21 2004 at 6:27 PM Rating: Decent
but what if someone is botting at the keyboard? GM can't really do anything about it then either i suppose. As long as you answer those questions.
RE: Losers
# Aug 23 2004 at 7:14 AM Rating: Default
then there's nothing they can do about it, and as such SE doesn't really care
