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!

Where can i find this guide?
got it

0/23 was my record till last night…YES after so much time I finely got the drop.
I use thf22/Bst10 for all low level NM’s because the BST wide scan covers a smaller area then the RNG version, for me it’s faster to scroll down the mob list and find what I’m looking for. Charm also makes a great claim tool because it’s fast and you can use it as you run like voke(No as far as I understand you can not charm NM’s) I don’t stand in one spot and check wide scan. Going around killing the lizards and checking the wide scan as you fight is best bet. She is a lottery ppo if your lucky you'r close to her when she spawns. This has been the way I’ve killed her 24 time with this being my first drop.

OHHH I’ve had her pop 2 times in an hour and take as long as 4 hours to spawn good luck

I've seen a level 14 THF solo it with 2 hour...i'm "pretty" sure a 30THF can kill a level 10-11 NM.

I've soloed LL successfully twice as RNG09/WHM04 and twice as RNG10/WHM05 so far but no drop !!! I needed to bring boost TP ahead of fight and carry some potions.

Yeah i've heard it can be soloed with a little luck as low as 10, and RNG, is probably a very good job, becuase you have two-hour for like at least 1/4-1/3rd of its life. You should take 1-2 potions to be safe though, petrify can be deadly.
duh

Woot! 1/15 on these.

*******must have Ranger sub for wide scan (don't bother with bst wide scan because the range is not wide enough).

i went as 37thf/rng. what i did different in my last fight then i did in the 14 others were that i dragged the fight out. i let LL hit me alot and i never used a weapon skill or ranged att. in fact the fight took so long that i did a /sea for any thfs in the area for an extra TH. i met this really cool lvl 19 thf that let me invite him for his TH and **Bam** i got drop.

-saw on wide scan
-claimed with steal
-dragged out fight so it took about 2-3mins
-had 2x Treasure hunter.

just saved myself 700k (leviathan)

happy hunting and ***** Leaping lizard.
YESSSS

Finally got these, 1/16. Today a person named Slugshot was leveling BST he told he he was 5/7, and because he already had some, and because he said he had a millionarres desk in his MH, he told me to invite him to party when i got claim. What do you know, drop!!! Thank's Slugshot!!!
LL pop rate increase?
# Oct 18 2006 at 11:04 AM Rating: Decent
I'm now at 0/5 on this one. A friend of mine and I think we've worked out a system on Valefor and want to see if anyone's done something similare on the other servers. We worked in a team, one being a RNG and pointing out the PHs from WS and I targeted only those leaving all the other lizards alive. To us it seemed LL poped more often when we were able to succesfully carry out this operation. Of course it doesn't help the drop rate. I just wanted to know if anyone else does this and has found it to help LL pop more often or not?

Well I was doing this last night, waiting for all 5 in group and killing PH. Did it for about 2 hours, no spawn. Then some DRK/low levels came in killing everything, another hour later no pop. Yeah...3 hours and no spawn. Then i logged out

Head to Emperor page for details ^.^ Just say lucky ownages yay

# Oct 08 2006 at 11:24 AM Rating: Decent
Took me a grand total of about 3 hours of camping. Widescan helped out a lot once I got it.
I'm 1/2. Lizzy popped on the east side of the rock both times, within a half hour of when I started camping. Got my bounding boots today. Now I never have to think about this stupid lizard again!

Oh, I got the drop as a Thf 32/Rng 1

I just used my usual camping strategy: always on the move, circling the spawn area. Whm33/thf15. Found LL on the east side of the mountain, and i am 1/1.

I was the only camper there, and I followed that method where you kill the bottom lizard from the eastern group of 5 lizards. (That being the so-called placeholder). Now, I had made sure to kill only that one, but after I killed it, I checked my widescan only to find LL was already up. I didn't bother fleeing or anything to her, cause I was the only camper there.. So I'm unsure if that really is the place holder, (I know a similar method works for Valk. Emperor, so why wouldn't it work here?) Doesn't really matter anymore, since I got the drop.

After 3 years of playing FFXI, and claiming numerous times, this is the first time I have ever got a drop from her. Anyways, glad to not have to buy leaping boots anymore for melee.

Killed Leaping Lizzy at 5:11 AM MDT, No drop, following DT's guide by killing PH's. At 5:28 AM MDT Leaping Lizzy popped again, and dropped boots. I thought window was 1 hour from last ToD?

I was lvling my bst (8) with my gf as pld quasi pl'ing me (17) when liz popped. We grabbed it and got drop, no problem. Since it was her birthday I gave her the boots, but wanted some for myself so I could sell by my Leaping ones. So we waited 2 hours 40 mins for spawn, no drop. (by then i was bst 10, her still pld 17). after that she went to bed, i changed to war 23/rng 10 and after 1hr 10min it popped again, no drop. 40 minutes later popped again, still no drop. Another 40 minutes later, popped again, got my own pair of Bounding boots. I think being closer to the mobs level really did increase rate (i know people 0/30 who camp with high levels) and the PH theory (bottom of 5) really *does* work.
