1/18.... woot! All I can say is, keep at it and eventually the people who out-claim you will get it. Then if you're lucky he'll drop it quickly - I wasn't. :)

Logged in around 1:15 AM and there was no one even in the zone so I figured that he had just popped, prolly wasn't gonna be a while before he came back. So I went and took a shower. Came back and immediately saw 3 gobs where one had been before. Heart racing I immediately Gravity'd him but linked the other two gobs, 245 mp, 700 something HP, i knew I would die if I stayed so I escaped. Ran back and the two gobs are still following him around like bodyguards! I Stoneskinned, Diagad all three and then escaped again. This time when I came back poor profblix was all alone. :` (. Elemental Seal> Silence (Resisted) > Blink > Gravity > Phalanx > Slow > Haste > Paralyze > EnBlizzard > Burn > Blink, hack hack hack. Basically just kept Blink and Stoneskin up while he kept throwing his Tier 2 Nukes at me. He casted Freeze twice. Both hit me for 0 dmg. Dropped the earring too. ^^
Dangers: Spams Tier 2 Nukes (Not so bad)
Uses Stun followed by a nuke frequently (which can be bad if you were busy casting blink/ Ss)
Will spam agas and high nukes after Manafont
Will use Aspir if you have MP
Will attempt to sleep you right off the bat.

Pop can be hard to claim if others are in the cramped room. Stay in the middle near the two pillars and he should pop somewhere around there. Provoke is necessary if other melee are present, Dia for mages. I'm a 72 RDM and I couldn't land Silence with JSE & ++ Int, so meh, he could be tricky if you ***** up.
Got mine on the first try

I log on after a long day at work and find myself with nothing to do since my static isnt partying. I decide to mess around with rdm/war and then for the hell of it i go to LoO to try and get the claim. I walk into the room where he pops and as soon as i turn the corner i see 3 gobs and 1 gob with a long looking name from far away. I got upset thinking i was to late and someone was closer and would get the claim. To my surprise, no one was in the room. I tried waiting for the 3 gobs to seperate but they wouldnt. I voked and all 3 linked. I killed them all rather easily and sho'nuff, the earring dropped on my 1st try. /cheer
Got it on 5 tries

It took 5 attempts (3 tries today), but I finally got this for my Red Mage and Black Mage (which I may restart some time soon after a long hiatus).

Mysticmaker was pretty much mowed down by me and Carbuncle, although that's to be expected at lvl 75 with 2 merits each put into Avatar Acc and Atk. The -ga spells hurt a little, but they were nothing Healing Ruby II couldn't fix. Freeze was a joke when it went off uninterrupted.

This Earring is something all Elvaan Red and Black Mages should try to get at one point or another. If nothing else, it will help you put up damage on Magic Bursts that are comparable to a Tarutaru.

I go to camp this NM for the earring for my red mage fight with maat. So i get there and i'm here with a SAM he a friend name Javiano good Sam he is, but anyways i get there and there are three high level BLm's waiting for the NM. Then they left for no reason. so i was like yeah so happy. Then me and him are talking trying to pass time and stuff. Then i moved my mouse around the screen bored, and i see a guy that is Invisible i see his name and i examine him and its a rdm he waiting for the pop too, so i'm like crap. My friend is like, get ready he might be popping here any minute because we camped there for a long time. Then i see a full party of fighters and mages run to where he pops and stop. I'm like wtf are they doing and my friend is like crap we got visitors. I'm like crap hope we get claim javiano is sam/war for provoke. So NM pops they get claim they dont get drop.Me and my friend are like well ***** this i'm not waiting another 2 hours. So we go back to Jeuno, and he leaves he tired and i'm mad and i need to farm.

Well heres my story! Nothing like all these repetitive same stuff garbage.

Headed out to LoO to camp Ose with a buddy. Me being 65rdm him being 70thf(yes I know not a smart idea). We get there and we pass by mystic's room, no big deal... Head up to Ose room and there he is! I sent a tall to the 75blm GF to get her butt here, she says ok. All of a sudden this bst charms a Troma and sets it out on Ose, we were kinda pissed. Few minutes later my buddy invited the BST to the party. The BST said he didn't need jerkin and he thought he was just attack a troma. Kill it in due time, get the Jerkin, 70 thf got that...

Ok and now something relevant to this earring... Buddy popped on his Assault Jerkin, i'm jealous, none the less we head to mystic's. Camp for about 30mins, BLASTED blm stun beat my dia, and he got drop. Left to go camp enkalados for 2hours, buddy had to log so i head back to LoO. This time i'm on my 66ninja. Get there alittle late like 2hours 10mins past ToD. Waited around till about 2:30, then just surfed the web figured i missed him. O.o there he is, noone else in the room. I voke him before putting up shadows... He starts off with a thunder IV that just ruined me. Got shadows up and he uses manafont... stonaga III, and all else crazy stuff. I get him to about 2%!!! first time ever attacking this sucker and die with him at 2% left. I lay dead for about 15mins wishing someone nice would stroll on by...

I didn't think i could make it back to him in time, but i actually pulled it off, HP'ed to jeuno, waited for a tele, choco'd over to LoO. THERE HE IS UNCLAIMED, unreal. I put shadows up, and he doesn't have manafont anymore so i pwn him to the ground.

1/1 Moldy thingy, that goes on my ear.

I just got this earring and what a story, i woke up early just to camp it, logged on (loged out at LoO) killed gobs for about 1.5 hrs, then 2 rdm, and a thf/whm come. rdm's were in a pt, thf was soloing.

no 10-15 min it pops. i was kinda mad cuz first time there and i needed it for my blm. but i have helped kill him b4. anyway, thf/whm claims it. when the NM was at 50% hp the thf was about the same amount of health. the thf does danceing edge, so i thought it was over.

next thing i see, the NM starts casting tornado, thf sees this and tries to run around and SA it, next thing the thf dies. i spam my flash macro (i'm 75whm/nin) i kill it in 2 hits, i get the earring, thunder 3, gob mask, and gob armor.

What a way to start off the morning, all b4 breakfest, and it's only noon now :0D

the NM didn't pop at the three stones in the middle, he poped at the far side near the passage way where the scrop hangs out
yay just got it!

Just got my Moldy earring. Took rdm to 71 w/o it, then just decided "what the heck, I'll try to camp it"

Went in and there was 3 other people camping it. One guy already had one, but was camping it for his other charachter, a 56blm he also had logged it. I see NM pop, but tab over him. That guy gets the claim, but no drop. I felt bad cause his blm charachter got aggro and died while he was doing it. He told me it was his 5th claim in a row with no drop.

So I log out and come back 2 hours later. Same people camping it. After about 30 minutes of waitin, I see NM pop and get the claim with a quick Dia! Right when I claim; get two links, a Bouncer and a Hunter. Hunter just sat back and shot arrows at me the whole fight though :P

Fight was tricky, since I didn't buff up for risk of losing claim, but had no stoneskin interupts. Just kept the linked Bouncer slept. NM hit me with Freeze and Tornando, it hurt but I survived.

After about a 5-10 minute fight, he goes down and my Earring drops, 1/1 :) Used an instant warp (as I subbed DRK) and got the heck outta dodge. Glad I made it, cause I was running out of MP and had already Coverted. Mighta had problem with the two linked gobs had I not.

You all are gonna really hate me.

3/3 on getting it for my friends.

2/3 on actually claiming it, 3'rd another party member got it. On the second kill we actually didn't even need it so we gave it to a RDM who had been camping there alone for a while.
God im Lucky
# Mar 08 2006 at 7:21 PM Rating: Decent
Hahaha thought i would share with you my experience - youll probably hate me when i finish - Decided one night i was gonna camp him (72blm still not moldavite) so i head to onzozo - a 73 blm there too... so i was thinking... 50/50 chance ill get him.... 10 mins or so he pops but the other blm gets claim... He puts up a good show... taking him down to about 20% before he was killed by multipule links. I was like... bad luck for him, good luck for me. 2 spells later Mystermaker is dead and i got the earring and burst (made 70k from selling it so not to bad). So in the space of 15mins i was 70k richer and had a new earring... what could have been easier? Mysticmaker Problix 1/1 :)
If you don't need it already, don't camp it

I've seen plenty of people who don't even have BLM leveled past 10 or 20 (or RDM at all even) camp this...WHY!? It is horrendously overcamped on my server, I've seen up to 40 people in the room waiting to pounce on it.

I'm 0/2 and missed 3 claims (no drops on any of those either) due to people who don't actually want or need this darn earring. And guess what? I need it for my Maat battle NOW ><

The drop rate is horrible as it is...don't make it worse for people who are legitimately interested in having it NOW for their BLM or RDM who is capable of wearing it by camping it for your level 10BLM because you feel you must have uber gear for it 37 levels early (you'll probably quit BLM and chuck it anyway).
1/1 yeah baby!

I'm a Elevaan 69 RDM. Strolled in one night to see if I could get lucky. Nobody was in the room, so I figured, oh well, he's not gonna pop for awhile. So, I decide to kill a Miner while I'm there. Darn NM pops right next to me just as I start fight with the Miner. Profblix aggos on me and now I've got him and a Miner on me. Anyway, long story short...take out the Miner and then battle Profblix. I finished him off with zippo MP left and about quarter of my HP left. Got the ring on the first drop!!!

i was 1/6 on Midgardsormr after a day of camping as a 70 SMN. Chaotic strike did 1600-1900 DMG each time.

I suggest camping with provoke, because risking a 2hr pop NM on a spell isn't wise. It's best to camp (on Midgardsormr anyways) 2AM-12PM eastern. I did that and had no competition until the 2 PM spawn (which I got drop).
^_^ yay! /wave Lapipa

Ok my story is kinda funny first off im 1/1 ^^

I was logged on for about an hr with some time to kill. My bro logged on and we were trying to decide what to do. We'd been killing the monkey that drops kidney daggar, Mischievous so-and-so, with no luck for about a week so we decided to go for this mob since he'd been leveling rdm.

We showed up at the camp spot and there were atleast 15 other campers there mostly in parties. After about 20 minutes of camping time, the gob pops almost right on top of me. I didn't even know the what it was. I saw another thief ready sneak attack and i went straight for my daggar. I got the claim with a daggar pull (cermet kukri & hornet needle) and as soon as i got it my bro was like holy ****. I was like "Is this the gob", he laughed so hard he fell out of his chair. Before he could answer I checked it and read Impossible to Gauge. I just sat up and hoped i didn't die.

The thing went down without a problem. No manafont or ancient magic(I wouldn't know ancient magic if it killed me). My bro says that i pretty much soloed it and he only threw me one or two cures. I was so pumped to have gotten the claim and then the damn thing dropped.

Congratulations Kirem and thanks for the Utsusemi: Ni scroll. I'll get that nin to 40 before you know it.

I just got claim and killed at 1:50 AM PST on Unicorn and no drop. I think I'll just sleep instead of camping him again in 2 hours since it's about 2:18 AM right now.

Here's my story for tonight....

I was there camping it and a BLM showed up to camp. Well, when the mob popped I was too far and the BLM shot a Stun at it to get claim. I was thinking...damn...another 2 hours of waiting...but no, the BLM ran away. I was thinking "Wtf?" The BLM got 1 add on him and ran out of the room. He ran so far that the mob just gave up and stood there claimed. It went unclaimed and the BLM wasn't back yet so I claimed it and killed him easily. The BLM came back really pissed and slapped me saying I stole his mob. I told him it went unclaimed and just stood there so I took it, but according to him I can't take it unless he dies. Well, I offered him the scroll that the mob dropped, and I felt pretty bad about it. I thought if the mob goes unclaimed it's fair game unless I MPK'd him or something, which wasn't the case. I mean, I didn't get the drop, but I felt pretty guilty about it.

So tell me, did I really do something that's F'd up?

I forgot your name dude - the BLM, but I am truly sorry if I wronged you in anyway. I honestly thought it was fair game.

To the rest of you waiting on TOD on Unicorn...here it is 1:50 AM PST

Edit: I saw him die at 9:25 PM so I went to xp...came back around 12:50 and camped him until 1:40ish.

My moldy earring
# Feb 02 2006 at 5:34 AM Rating: Decent
OMG! I got mine! whee! 1/1...

Was out in Mhaura witha afriend and she logged off... i had a hunch I should go camp this bad boy. Ran out there, invis'd into the area only to see te nm die at the hands of a lvl 75 rdm. I was like "oh crap... 2 mor ehours" Everything in the area checked EP at lvl 68... I chatted with some friends and waited. Nobody except a friend was there to camp him... I couldn't believe my luck.

At around 2 hrs from ToD, I saw him pop, my friend was apparently AFK. I pulled the mob with a low lvl nuke and proceeded ot melee him 1/2 to death . Keeping my defenses up with phalanx and Stoneskin, I was doing decently until he nuked me with Thunder III, Aeroga II and manafont. I managed to cure myself and raised my defenses when I realized 2 other gobs had linked. Keeping my cool I put them to sleep and soundly beat Profblix into the ground. I couldn't believe my luck when I saw it show up on the drop list. I hit my Chainspell Escape macro and got out of there before the 2 links woke up.

Needless to say, I'm a proud owner of a Moldy earring... the difference is pretty amazing. GL to every one else out there.

P.S. Oddly enough, the cockatrice in the area didn't aggro during the fight even tho they checked EP... odd...
Glitched claim >:[

1/15 here. Somehow, the game glitched and i was unable to target Mysticmaker after I claimed it. I went as BST and claimed with Charm (got 2 Hunter links). Following that, Call Beast but the game somehow locked me as the target and I couldnt switch it off to Mysticmaker. I could attack it, but I couldn't do any abilities or spells on it. So I had to disengage and attempt to reclaim before it went neutral. It went neutral, but luckily the BLM that showed up like 5min before it popped didn't attempt to claim it during that time. Or was just not paying attention. But I'm willing to bet on the first. So thank you whoever you are. Claimed it again and everything went fine.
