These guys also drop Ninja's Testimony. You can find them on the outer parts of the temple in Yhoator jungle. Tonberry Shadowers share the spawn points, so if you run out of choppers kill the shadowers.
These are by far the easiest way to get your ninja's testimony.

Vana'diel Bestiary: Tonberry Chopper

I just got done killing about 30 of these and I didn't get a prelate key. The drop rate sucks so I don't know what you are talking about. Also,I'm a 75 Mnk/Nin and I didn't have any trouble killing these things. These nin type ones are the hardest one on the ledge there,but only cuz they take a little longer to kill. But most mights I could go without getting hit or at most 1 or 2 times. He likes to used ranged attack alot but he only landed that like twice,not very accurate. Only problem fighting these was the throat stab that knocks you down to 5% health,but only like 1 out of every 7 or 8 would use it. But,after he uses it I had plenty time to get shadows back up cuz it seems he kinda stuns himself using it. So,I didn't die at all but I had RR up the whole time. I think these are alot easier to fight then the stabbers cuz most are a lower level and when I tried to fight a stabber inside before I came to these but there are too many mobs in there and I had 2 others agro that walked near in the middle of the fight. The cutters were alot easier to fight without agro since they are outside and the others out there pretty much just hide in the small rooms. Also,I was killing all of the tonberries out on the ledge there cuz sometimes a cutter would spawn in the place of one of the others in the rooms. The one that roams on the top ledge always respawns as a cutter. Anyways good luck getting the key,I will be back there again tmrw hopefuly with better luck.

yea... i just spent about... 8 hours in temple at the offering camp. me and a lvl 46 thf.. for the first like 7 hours i was a 72 whm/smn . was fairly easy.. moves like throat stab and i think its.. vertical slash.. the def down one.. they make you /panic..unlike some types of mobs.. i coulnd't solo fairly easy .. these are only ep low def - ep high def. so yea.. after about 7 hours i get pissed from dieing about 6 times from random mess ups or interupts and went and got /nin sub... from that point on it was cake.. a drk lvl 60 had joined in and a lvl 51 smn.. but after 8 hours of camping... we ended up with.. 1 smn testimony. 1 offering.. *wth did the ??? go?* 1 coffer key.. alot of coats and seals.. but no prelate key.. killed like 20 or so stabbers... so anyone know if choppers or stabbers have dif drop rate.. or if the glitch to agro the mobs to open the door really has been fixed???? and also.. plz. dear god.. someone tell me IS IT or IS IT NOT one time use....
i need the prelate key for SAM AF Body and it's too hard to solo even with a 75, the minimum you can take it with is a 75 healer and 75 dd of some sort, i doubt me being a 60 samurai helped too much other than target practice for the mob >.>;
from what im told the key drop is EXTREMLY rare which sucks because so are finding the mobs that drop it. I been fighting them for hours at a time and only see 1 or 2 choppers in 30 minutes
if you're looking for the key take some high level theifs with you unless you want to spend eternity looking :(

This thing isn't REAL hard, i'm able to solo these guys as a PLD75, i just make sure i flash him when i see him ready throat stab and the rest is cake. Although the key is a very rare drop. ><
this is with staff though, so if your pld75 that doesn't have staff skill cap'd, don't try this.

Drops prelate key also, I have 100% confirmed this
I second that, they do indeed drop the Prelate Key. Stabbers and Choppers are Ninja type Tonberry.
