Rdm/blm can solo
# Mar 12 2008 at 5:17 AM Rating: Decent
We soloed just last night as pld75/rng01 (me) lol and rdm/blm. We went repeated times just to get ToD, but never got any. So 20 hours after update we're early, waiting on pop. He finally does at almost exactly 24 hours after restart ended, and I managed to out-flash about 5 people. The Rdm had just gotten aggro from 2 leeches, and we'd killed the one and 2nd was about half-dead when I saw new bloodsucker on widescan. He slept II the leech and we ran and I claimed him. Lucky! Unfortunate for us, slept leech woke up and linked 2 more on his way to us. Strangely, he didn't de-aggro quickly like the others did. I kept NM claimed while rdm sleepga'd and started Blizzard III and Thunder IIIing the nm. NM was about half dead when all the leeches started waking up, so I cured rdm and sentinel'ed, which bought us a little time. I cure-bombed the rdm and he converted, Cure IV'd, chainspelled, and nuked the living crap out of the bloodsucker nm. It died and dropped ruby and ring! Yay! I lotted super quick and we both died XD. I got it though! 1/1, which is crazy, my luck's never that good :P.

All in all, you don't have to be a blink tank to take him :P Sleep is the only thing that saved our butts though, rdm pretty much completely soloed him. I just took care of links. Was pretty quick fight, lasted maybe a minute or two. Fun ^^
solo?

Any idea if a 75Pld/Nin could take him solo? or would the chance of linking be to great

If you managed to make the pull with zero links, and got no links while killing it - it is feasible. You'd might want to consider bring a haste belt to help keep shadows up. He didn't miss my PLD too much when I was killing him.

Another option that is a little more risky if you have competition... if you get links, run right to the ronfaure exit or to spot where you first fall down from the first level. In many cases, all the leech adds (and maybe any hounds that you linked on the way) "should" depop, leaving you with only the NM to handle.

I can't say I've seen this work on PLD... but I've seen this method of pulling work as a SMN. Claim with carbuncle, run to a safe spot - and the NM will kill carbuncle and come to you with no adds.
good for a redmage?

would this be good for a redmage at any time or situation?

This NM pops at least 23 hours after maintenance. I went at 21-24 hours according to another site's recommendation and sure enough it popped at around the 23-hour mark.

Yes, it's bright blue just like the leeches in Zitah.

Has Drain effect on its melee attacks, can be Slept (at least by BLM). Low HP though, maybe around 4000.

This ring is great for any endgame tank. Bomb Ring + Bloodbead Ring is the highest HP boost you can get in the ring slots, which is nice when you are tanking or kiting mobs that will typically only hit you with large-digit magic damage, in which case using a Jelly Ring is bad.

It DOES Exist :)

I got mine today actually. It drops from the Notorious Monster "Bloodsucker" in Bostaunieux Oubliette. The NM itself has the exact same name as the other leeches in the zone. The only way to differentiat between the two is the NM is blue/green in color and cons "Impossible to Gauge" while the normal leeches are red/tan in color and con "Easy Prey" to 75. Low drop rate (like 25%), I believe my LS is 2 and 8 on the Ring. Happy hunting :)

Aszephoron, you sure you read the description right? This isn't an NM of any sort. ANY Bloodsucker can drop this thing. I'm sure Bloodsuckers spawn at a max of up to 10 minutes per. I'd say the drop is as rare or rarer than Carbuncle's Ruby (I actually got a Ruby while trying to get this ring in Toraimorai Canal...)

Actually, it does NOT drop off just any Bloodsucker; Allakhazam has incorrect info. It ONLY drops off of the NM Bloodsucker, who, because SE wanted to be evil, has the same name as the mobs around him. He is bluish, while the normal mobs are pink, and he checks impossible to gauge, while the normal ones check as EP @75. He spawns once every 72 (RL) ours or so. However, he does spawn 21-24 hours after servers get reset from maintenance, then 72 hours from each death after that.
Myth....

Does this thing even exist!

I've been to the spawn area after Maintenance, waited 3 hours and even went back exactly 72hrs after the Maintenance. NADA ZIP ZILCH!

At times I believe this guy is a myth. ionno might just be my bad luck.
RE: Myth....
# Apr 17 2006 at 4:28 PM Rating: Decent
All 21-24hour spawns = 1-3 hours after Maintenance. All 72-75 hour spawns = 21-24 hours after Maintenace. That prolly why you didnt see him.

Hmmm...does anyone knows what <pos> he's at? BTW I wouldn't really recomend this ring to a PLD...you could just get a Jelly Ring at 63, and a Hercules Ring at 66, which BTW rocks! I only really want this for fun, or when @ 300%TP and have Spirits Within rdy, at beginning of battle and get some extra DMG of it..but other than that I personally would not recommend this to a PLD..unless it was like some for of Earring...cause its kinda usless @60+ when you can get the other 2 rings I mentiones and mobs hit you for like 60-120 DMG..doesnt do much


{Buzzer Sound} Wrong answer! This ring is probably the best +HP ring for a pld when it comes to HNM tanking. Sure the Bomb Queen Ring provides more HP, but it also has the horrible bonuses to fire dmg, which a lot of HNMs spam. Jelly Ring and this ring and you're set in the HNM dept.

{Buzzer sound} Correct! while the novelty of refresh and regen is nice, it is pretty terrible for HNM or God. Because the mob is going to be hitting for a lot more, its more important to have HP and survivability, rather then gain 1 hp/mp every few seconds. Though i haven't done any, i've hung out to watch King Behemoth and Vrtra, and even an extra 50 hp can decide between death and a quick cure V
Pos?

The Hercules is only good when you need extra Enmity, or when your HP goes under 50%.
The Jelly Ring is a ****.
