Sometimes the first group and last group of Rock Lizards will not exist on your widescan depending on where you stand and how big your widescan range is...
I don't know exactly how many monsters are in between each group. It is just an estimate.

Respawn time for Rock Lizards is 5 minutes earth time so once you kill a PH, set a 5 min timer.
Then either the PH will spawn again or LL =)

I would recommend that when you are camping LL, go in a party with 2 members, since LL have a chance to spawn either at the upper floor or at the lower one (regardless of which PH was killed...) With two members you can each take a PH to make it easier to keep track of the pop window for each PH.

Happy hunting!

be careful what you say. ******** like duskrequiem and balmunk will bash you for saying the boots are overpriced.

Finally found her and killed after an hour of waiting as a 18THF/9WAR...easy as hell to kill, no boots though. Lol I shouted that I had killed her and like 5 people started cussing me out <.<

2 for 7 on pops I've gotten. Do I look like a prick for wearing Winged Boots while I hunt her? Heh, c'est la vie. This is more for new people (especially since Lizzy is the first NM many players camp) than for those who know what they're doing, since I'm tired of people who keep /shouting "is this where lizzy spawns?" and "when did it last pop?"

1. Generally, two types of people will hunt Lizzy successfully. The first group is THF, for Flee, for TH2, for whatever reason. The second group is WAR (or RDM, PLD, etc.) for the quick pull with Provoke/Dia/Flash or what have you (I prefer WAR/RNG because Provoke can be spammed while running). Both groups will have RNG subbed (or main) for widescan. This is vital, because otherwise you will have to figure out all the relevant Lizard spawn points and circuit them and run the risk of having Lizzy spawn while you're on the other side of the map with nothing you can do about it. Once someone else hits Flee and gets five steps on you, it's over unless they flub the ranged macro. The two pairs of boots I've gotten were the result of people without scan running spawn points and Lizzy spawning across F-8 from them.

2. You must become like a machine with the widescan. Figure out the sequence of keystrokes or button presses that lets you (as quickly as possible) pull it up, scroll through the mob list, and slap track on Lizzy when she shows up, then stick to it, repeating as often as possible. The monotony is worth it when you're the first off the line to the spawn point because you saw Lizzy first on widescan. Of course, there will be THF with flee, there will be the people who camp down near the fumaroles or up near the pillar and get to her first, but if you're not willing to at least try every time you see her on scan or in the distance, then NM hunting is not for you. Make room in F-8 for people willing to dig.

3. Spawn times: I regret that I do not know as much about this as I could. All the knowledge I thought I had built up from the first several times I'd seen her ('always spawns on firesday', 'never spawns at night', etc.) was proven wrong by the last few times I've fought her. Generally, there will be at least one spawn between all of Firesday and Earthday, she can spawn at night although it's less common (only night spawn I've seen was at 21:38, Earthsday), and I can't exactly disprove the idea that she spawns in pairs, though I've yet to see anything concrete to support it.

As far as I can tell, the people who say she is a lottery pop from all available Rock Lizard spawns are right. My personal anecdotal evidence to support this is the time I once ran down from the pillar, killed a Rock Lizard, and ran back up only to see Lizzy spawn in the exact spot that Rock Lizard did previously. I can't say much concretely about the whether the number of people in the zone stops or delays the spawn time, but it feels like it takes longer when there are two people on top of you scanning as often as you are.

That said, good luck to everyone who decides to camp Lizzy.
hate me now..

i have read all posts on this guy, and have always wanted boots; but i read how difficult it was to get drop so when i was just killing time today i hunted him. i knew i didn't have a chance in hell of seeing him let alone getting drop but i was just wasting time so it didn't matter.. started training lizards... killed about 40. omg saw leaping on widescan. /run like hell ... get to him. while i was fighting him i turned off display for pictures and when he died i turned display back on.. <shock!> leaping boots!! i was so excited i shouted to all of gusteburg. i am still in shock. i killed him with war31/rng1 and i will never try again. no one has that luck twice :)

How will I recognize Lizzy? Is she a lot bigger than normal lizards?
RE: Lizzy
# May 11 2004 at 9:27 AM Rating: Decent
She is slightly bigger than a normal Rock Lizard.

I've always thought she was bigger, but I thought I was crazy or seeing things. Then on one occasion while engaged with a Rock Lizard, I saw Lizzy spawn and engaged her right beside the Rock Lizard.

The only difference between Leaping Lizzy and a normal rock lizard is that the name, 'Leaping Lizzy' will appear above her. It'll show this way in widescan and visually, so if you're trying to tell by the name from a distance, try targeting the mob or looking for the space in the name if the letters are unintelligible.
Fuuu..!!

man.. i was spamming wide scan for 3hours today without a spawn. I needed a bathroom break bad, so i rush off and come back 5 mins to see Lizzy on wide scan. Rush to it and find it dead -.-

Lizzy has been taking its time to spawn lately, like 2-3 hours

# May 08 2004 at 12:44 AM Rating: Decent
i am sick of seeing these, saying she sapwns every 2 days is like saying "ok well according to what i say, she will spawn at 10:15, 10:30, and 11:45, awesome i can go get lunch and now i dont have to worry about trying to find here" dumbasses, its a lotted nm, how else would she spawn on such random occasions....
Bad thing about Camping...

Let's see..I found lizzy. I fought lizzy, some idiot chains three lizards to me, On purpose, of course, and disappears. I get killed, and an overkill war provokes it, taking over...why? Why do we get to see the worst of a person on NM sites?
lizzy
# Apr 29 2004 at 4:09 PM Rating: Decent
So far ive camped it twice.. once with friend once alone... and i got the boots 1 time.. the time i was alone. I was there for 15 mins and she popped up and i killed here and got boots.. man was i happy.. lol well ye i think she does spawn once and then 10-15 mins later and then 3 hours, cuz someone said they were almost just killed by lizzy and i was like no u were not i just killed her and got boots. so we realized she spawned twice in a matter of few minutes.

btw: I was lucky enough to get boots my first fight with lizzy and only TH1.

What's a good combo?
# Apr 27 2004 at 2:01 AM Rating: Decent
Ok, ive been hunting her for about 3 days and only killed her 4 times. When i hunt her i go THF/RNG. Is this a good combo b/c i see alot or WARs and mages running around. Dia and Voke is faster than me doin a ranged attack. Thanks for your help in advance.

# May 05 2004 at 9:44 PM Rating: Default
I personally use War/Rng to hunt Lizzy, but that's not to say that Thf/Rng with thief at 25+ isn't just as good. When viewing Provoke versus Flee, you must consider the distance between you and Lizzy when she spawns. If you and other hunters are a good distance from her, a fleeing Thief will have the definite advantage. If she spawns relatively close to you and other hunters, however, provoke will most likely allow the warrior to snag her first. Oh and one last thing: kill her on Lightsday.

Leaping Lizzy: 3/14

I've been camping lizzie for 2 weekends and got no drop (0/7). It's supposed to come after 3 real hours, then one real hour after that. The extra one an hour later depends on how many lizards u kill....well that's the normal route anyway. Had one not come up for five hours before.

Someone shoot me seriously.. I've killed Lizzy for the 17th time in a row, with Treasure Hunter II, and no drop.

I need those boots.. If I get a pair, I won't have to come back and wait around for that ***** again >_<

I don't know if I just have bad luck or if I'm doing something wrong, but 17 kills with no results isn't something I'm too proud of.

Me and some linkshell buddies camped it today against stiff competition, and got it. No drop, though. That 220,000G looks pretty good.
