Description

In Port Jeuno start at the left covered stairway, as you are heading towards the docks, is a npc(dont remember name) standing in the corner there.

He will explain about monsters being trapped inside orbs that have eaten treaure. He explains on how to summon the creature, he tells you that if you take one of these orbs to a burning circle in either giddeus, ghelsba or palborough mines, and trade it to the burning circle, you will summon the creature within. He will give you a different orb for the amounts of 40, 50 and 60 beastman seals that you trade him. After you have traded him for one of the orbs, it may seem as if it cant be done again, but just trade him more seals and he will give you one of the other orbs. I dont think that you can get the same orb again.

The caption included with each orb is about the level cap for the creature within the orb. The level cap is the same thing as how many seals you give them for the orb.

I.E. 40 seals= Lvl 40 cap for creature.

Orbs are called Star Orb, Moon Orb and Comet Orb.

You're going to die

Don't even begin to consider trying to kill one of these NM's unless you've got a full party right at the cap. Party configurations should be seriously considered based on the NM that spawns (one of them, for instance, is this nifty bomb-type where you'll actually want a party of 5 RDM/SMN's and yourself to take it down).

Loot is all high-quality, super-rare, and quite desirable. Each orb can be used at all 3 locations, though the monster that you call is different for each location (eg, Giddeus and Ghelsba have different lv40 BCNM's). Loot varies based on orb and location.

You obviously think you know a lot more about these than you actually do.

There are several BCNMs (specifically the lev 20 ones) that can easily be soloed by a Summoner.

Learn, then speak.

Star Orb
# Dec 23 2003 at 2:55 PM Rating: Default
I just tried this one last night. LVL 30whm/15blm. Star Orb. Kicked the crap out of me. A Rare Monster called Flayer Franz and about thirteen other flesh eaters cast a whole lot of earth-element spells on me before I got into battle mode. Rasp, Slow, Stone II and Stonega II. SO--I wouldn't try this unless you're lvl 40 and have a full party (of lvl 40's). Good thing tho is if you do die, you still have your Star Orb. Also, it seems that all the mobs there are all one element, and you only have to have one orb for the whole party. If you're not afraid of dying, go find out. Nothing to lose but XP.

At Last!

At Last! Now I know what to do with those crazy Beastman Seals I have been saving for god-knows-what purpose.

The NPC in Port Jeuno is named Shami, he stands slightly behind the awning over the stairs leadind down in (H-8). He's close to the San D'Oria Airship Port.

He'll give you a run down of how many seals to turn in for various Orbs, and tell you the places you can use them. When you receive your orb, it will warn you that in order to participate in that Orb's level of monster, your level will be capped to the appropriate level, much like the Mission for Rank 3 dragon.

I haven't gone to try it out yet, but when I do, I'll try to give an example of what sort of treasure dropped.

The NPC is a fat human named Shami. He is in Port Jeuno at H-8 behind the stairs to the duty-free shop.

Does anyone know what the monsters drop when you defeat them? Do you get the treasure even if they break your face in? Curious.

# Dec 20 2003 at 3:03 AM Rating: Default
I justgot my first orb, lvl 24 and got the Star orb. He also offered me some other orbs for Kindred seals or something else. Cant remember at the moment but ill post detail later. Maybe these were added with the dec. 15th patch?

You may hand in 30 Kindred Seals for a different type of Orb, cannot recall the name. These orbs have a lvl cap of lvl 70. In these battles you may attain your Job Rings or RSE Belts.

I don't have any information on the NM that you will be fighting, and if he has minions with him or not.

it says that you can't get teh same orb twice so...are the orbs reusable or only one shot?
RE: reusable?
# Dec 20 2003 at 12:35 AM Rating: Default
They're Rare EX, so you can't have two at once, but I know from talking to Japanese players that you can do the same BCNM several times. You have to be able to, to get all the drops yourself.
orbs?

what does the orbs do?
lv requirement
# Dec 19 2003 at 8:12 PM Rating: Decent
The min level is probably related to the monster spawned, as a LV 40 (capped) monster would still kick the crap out of a lv 21 PC. Just a guess tho.

#Anonymous, Posted: Dec 19 2003 at 7:05 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) i dont think there is a min level. i got a moon orb (60 seals) when i was just lvl 21.
#Anonymous, Posted: Jan 01 2004 at 4:01 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) as it's been said many times in the above posts.. the lvl of the NM is the lvl of the orb/beastman seal's..
