I was in LoO for 13 straight pops and 7 claims before I got this guy's earring ... now every time I check my gear and am reminded of this guy I get a little bit angry and go kill a few goblins outside Jeuno to make myself feel better about losing 32-33 hours of my life.

So I decided on a whim to see if he was up yesterday. I get to the spawn point and there was to my surprise NO ONE THERE. He's up, so I without thinking claim him, and two other gobs lovingly join in on the fun. I am a RDM/WHM, so I sleep the other two and get him to about 50%. My stoneskin and blink wear, so I start casting. It then says Mysticmaker Profblix starts casting Freeze. I got it for 600+dmg. I die.

I call to my shell and a Rng and Whm say they are coming. I wait about 10 mins, and no one comes and claims this guy. A passing WHM casts R3 on me and leaves. My whm gets there and we claim him together. Cakewalk. all I get is a Scroll of Thunder III and a Goblin Helm... oh well, it was fun.

Thanks for the help.

**Edit

Got my earring on Saturday night. Went to Onzozo with hopes of killing Ose. Bunch of my LS buds came to help. We stayed there 6 hrs, went 0/2 on Ose and 2/2 on Mysticmaker Profblix. First earring drop Myself and a BLM in the group lotted. Lost by 5, came back 2 hrs later, and got the next drop. Fun night. Go Clan of Chaos!

Yes Mysticmaker Profblix can be silenced, I Silenced "him" 2 times when blm was 60, and again when blm was 68ish(got the drop this time), but found Mysticmaker Profblix could not be silenced after it had used Manafont.

*I had help fighting it >_> but I was the only mage. :x

I was having alot of claiming troubles on claiming Mysticmaker Profbitch this past week. I had gone 0/4 on claims until this morning. I decided I would log out where he pops to see if I could grab him when I got up. When I arrived, low and behold, there he was just sitting there. All in all, I notice 2 fellow Red Mages walk in and so I freaked and claimed him right then. It didn't drop and I died due to aggro.

I went to bed. Zzzzzzz...

Rise and shine, it's 8 am and I've gotta take care of my neighbor's dogs. I log on and Zareth, an extremely skilled RDM who had arrived as I was claiming a few hours earlier, was still camping and was missing some HP and had away status up so I figured Mysicmaker died recently. Meanwhile, my good friend Rinoanwdl shows up to help camp him. I got back from my friends house and people begin showing up. There were at least 8 other campers had shown up around the time I figured spawn window should be opening. I decided I would stand near the hallway east of the stones and look north for a lucky wall-pop that nobody else would catch. After a little bit, I for no reason turn south, just as I do, he pops! I instantly hit my dia macro and his name turns red. Nobody even had time to turn. Rinoan tells me "Nice claim!" and we kill it pretty easy. It dropped the earring and I wet my pants. That put me at 2/6 on claims and 1/2 on the drop. I'm still ecstatic. To top it all off my fiance logs on 2 minutes later! =D

Thank you Rinoanwdl and good luck Zareth and everybody else! ^^

After 20 hours of continuously camping and killing this guy as often as I can get the claim, I'm now 1/5 on the earring...If it wasn't such a great earring I think I might have killed myself...

After reading some comments about this NM and earring, I decided to give it a shot and take it on. I soloed this as an Elvaan 64 RDM/BLM, and it was a very intense fight, to say the least. To begin with, I went at a time when there weren’t so many people around camping him. I did not get the ToD, but since it could not be much more than two hours or so, I decided to stick around. I built my TP defeating all other gobs around, and was waiting on him with 300 TP so as to do some nice damage initially. This may have been the deciding factor in the end.

As I claimed the mob (and another person who probably wanted to kill him showed up, but never ended up helping me despite my being in trouble on one or two occasions) I immediately started with a WS after I Dia’ed him, which took off a decent chunk of his HP. I tried to Silence him on numerous occasions, but it never stuck. I kept Stoneskin and Phalanx up as much as I could, especially the former, but my MP was quickly going down as I also tried to keep Haste, Ice Spikes and Enblizzard up. The biggest scare I got was when he cast Freeze…that ate right through my Stoneskin and I took damage for over 700 HP, putting my HP straight into the red. I don’t quite remember whether I used Convert before or after that, but needless to say I continued the last portion of the fight with no attack buffs, red HP, and just enough MP to recast Stoneskin one or two times. I was very fortunate that he did not cast another Freeze (or Manafont, for that matter) past my using Convert, or I would have been a goner. Finished the fight with 400 HP and around 40 MP.

I did get the Moldavite Earring, and I was tremendously excited! I worked it into my Magic Burst Macro, which looks something like this (depending on the MB, substitute appropriate spell and staff):

/equip main “Ice Staff”
/equip ear1 “Moldavite Earring”
/ma “Blizzard II” <t>

Needless to say, this earring makes a big difference. Without MB, I generally cast Blizzard II for 250+ now, and MB for over 330…that’s not too shabby, and I am saving up for an Elemental Torque, which will hopefully add to this.

I wish all of you the best of luck camping this NM. It is my hope that you do not stumble upon players surrounding you who are callous enough to let you die and steal your mob (which very nearly happened to me, it seems). This CAN be soloed as an Elvaan 64 RDM/BLM, in case you were wondering, but it may be a tough fight. A lot of it, just like everything else in this game, depends in part on luck. If I wasn’t lucky that day, I probably would not have claimed him, probably would have died, and probably would not have gotten that earring on my first try. Again, good luck to everyone!

Myself (RDM60/BLM30) and a lvl THF60/WAR30 friend of mine camped this guy, after I had got time of death about 2 hours earlier. It didn't pop for 2:30 after ToD. There was only 1 other person camping it, a lvl 75 NIN. There was also a high level PT running around, but didn't really seem to be camping it. Anyways, it popped, and I paniced and couldn't get it targeted. Thankfuly my friend had WAR subbed, and managed to voke it. While I had fought it before, with other higher levels, he hadn't, and he was begging for cure, even though he was only down to 75%. So I cure him full, the ******* spams his -ga spells, as well documented. Then I see him start casting Freeze on the THF, at this point he's down to about 50% (Both MmP and the THF) I Cast Cure IV on the thf and then cure3, THF still has hate, Freeze goes off, and takes him down to 83 HP!!!

I again cure him to full, to which I get hate. I'm running low on MP so I Cast Stoneskin, and do a quick Convert and quickly cure myself, but only two about 50% (mistake!) to which I make sure the THF is full, because he's doing all the damage, I get killed when he's down to 10% (Delevel) THF is pretty much full (But crapping himself). He finally finishes him of with a WS (Can't remember which one), but we were both terrified that he was going to cast another ancient spell. Anyways, IT FINALLY DROPPED! And that party that was running around had a WHM that gave me Raise III, I get my lvl back by a hair and I have my earring!

In retrospect, We probably could have beat it without me dying, but I admittedly paniced. But then again, Freeze could have killed him, and I for sure would have been a goner.

Anyways, it's definitely more fun to take on NMs when you're riding the line of barely doable. And the drop feels more rewarding, and earned.

Also, in my time camping this NM, I've found it has 3 Pop times 2 hours, 2 hours and 15 minute, and 2 hours and 30 minutes. I've seen it about 15 times while knowing the ToD. And it always spawns one of those times, never a minute before or after, never inbetween. And of those times, it pops mostly after 2:15. You don't have to take my word for it. Try it out yourself.


(edit: I also wanted to note, that Mysticmaker Profblix seemed to be extra generous that day, as he dropped the earrings on at least 3 people before me too. At least according to people I talked to later on. It was also a full moon waning when I got the drop. The pop before me was on a 100% full moon.
I also got Mary's Horn earlier in the day. I wasn't even camping her, just ran into her. Maybe it was just my lucky day.) :)

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.

Been needing this earring for awhile, but havent really had the time. Got on last night and decided to check out where Mysticmaker spawns, since my high lvl thf friend wasnt on to help me. Get there, no one camping him b/c everyone was trying to be the first to get blue mage. He is just standing there, walking around, surronded by about 15 cockatrices which are T to me (one of my favorite magic cards). Cant solo him, so I shout around asking for some help. A 58 bst (Darknova) and 75 war (Cowgomoo) come over to help me, we pwn him, finished him off with a 600dmg Vorpal Blade from the war and a 600dmg freeze from me. The only dmg we really took was from -ga spells, namely Thundaga and Aeroga II. He drops the earring, an Onzozo chest key, a gobbie mask, and Thunder III. I was very thankful and gave 200k to Cowgomoo, Darknova didnt want anything. Whole episode took about 45 minutes, from time I left Jeuno to time I returned to Jeuno.

3/4 so far on this one. First 2 were for LS mates and the last was for me. Here's some random advice. First off a few friends and me have noticed that the NM only spawns after a Goblin Bouncer spanws. So far this has been true on 20 claims so far between all of us. So if you see a bouncer start paying attention. Second he always seems to appear by the right wall if you enter through the botom of the map. Third and this is rather important. Since you have a decent enough chance of there being an a$$hat camping against you remember to turn off your assists. Almost lost the claim for mine. Second i claimed it a rdm in the area started spamming Cure IVs on me to steal claim. That was quite irritating. None the less I kept hate and claim and the earring droped, which i put on and then gloated to the would-be-stealer ^^

I am sick and tired of this NM. Im now 0/8 on him and counting. What really annoys me is, people go 1/1, 2/2, etc....All I can say is, dont be expecting the drop on 1st kill by what people say. He's completely stingy at times and at other times very giving.

Edit: Finally got the drop. Went 1/12. Regardless, not a good drop rate.

I just got the earring on this NM 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

0mg wow u iz so k00l!! u can claim AND kill a lv 50 NMz...but seriously, you're an *******. I feel bad for the people who have to deal with you on a daily basis. I even feel bad for you "GF", assuming she's real of course.

Anyways, I've soloed him twice as 75RNG/NIN, he's not that tough other than the constant -ga's. I'm currently 0/2, both times he spawned were at the exact same spot. I also recommend clearing every mob in that area, it stops you from getting any links from nearby gobs which can really ***** a 65 or lower person, probably best to kill the Cockatrices too, as they will agro anyone 70 or lower. This has been said many times, but yeah, he spawns usually in 2 hours and 15 minutes or something close to that.

GL with him, he's not too tough as long as you avoid links.
RE: this drop sux
# Mar 19 2006 at 7:45 PM Rating: Decent
Dude, you're an ***. Ever think that the reason why you always get the claim over the lower level rdm that's your competition, is because you don't have to worry about aggro from the surrounding gobs in that area, and even links are not going to be a problem for you?

Ever think that now since you already got the earring from MM, that maybe the other rdm might just need it a little more than you do? If your GF is also wanting the earring, why don't you be considerate, and have her team up with the other rdm while you camp OSE?

Stop being a f*ckhead, and help other players. Not just your GF.

Hehe, I got AMAZINGLY lucky today.

On my way to a PT in LoO, And the leader tells me to go right, Not left. Which brings me face to face with... You guessed it. So, I realize that we have another RDM and BLM.. Ask if they need Moldy, They say yes. I say "Well, You guys wanna fight it?" They say no, Its a horrible drop rate, And we'll die as a pt.. (Full PT of 60/61.. Fools) So I say fine, brb.

10 mins of soloing later.. I rejoin the party wearing a Moldavite Earring. And the RDM and BLM are pissed. :D Go me.

Been camping this with my LS for about a week.

We had about... 7 people needing this.

The day turned out really well. We first camped Mystic, got claim (10 people camping him - 6 were us approximately), Earring Drops, Melantha get earrings. Hooray! We decide to do BCNM30 Creeping Doom while waiting for respawn. We get Wizard's and Genin's Earring and also a Scroll of Erase! NICE! So we go back and camp him for a second time (at least my second time), 2 others there (I think), Mystic is 20mins late lmao... finally get him. No drop. Pooh. Everyone quits except for me (Blm64/Whm32), Nightly (Thf68+?), Oblivionknight (Drk70), and Cze (Blm75). Nightly has a Blm also so it's just me and Nightly who need it. Mystic pops third time that day, killed, Earring drops.

Nightly Lots: ~100
Curcio Lots: ~200

I'm screaming YES! YES! YES! YES! when I see:
"Oblivionknight Lots 650"
"Oblivionknight obtains moldy"

...

We're pissed for a few, Nightly is furious, because Obliv is a drk. Nightly goes to bed. Me, Cze, Icarus (My blm friend who also needs moldy), and Vinces (Rdm65+? - he got a moldy and Assault Jerkin all in one day!) decide to camp Ose. We Manaburn all the toramas we see until he pops. We Manaburn Ose no problem, no Jerkin. Cze and Vinces leave, me and Icarus camp mystic. We get him, Manaburn him, moldy drops, I win lot.

W000000T.

We camped him again for Icarus, but no drop. ;;

Im doing him again later this week. ^_^

Good luck all, drop is actually quite common.

Curcio...didn't know you had an Alla account...

^^ it gets better (btw, Vinces is 71 or 72, Nightly is 70 or 71THF and 65ish BLM...for the record)

The drama continues!
So...Mikrik and I (Melantha) are bumming around Shakrami Maze watching for Argus (in vain) and popping the Aroma Crawler every 30 mins (it's female hume week)...3rd try is the charm ^^

About 2 mins after my Sachet drops (near the Attowa Chasm zoneline) Nightly starts saying that Mysticmaker is up and we have to run to help him...I convince him to claim it (yeah...not such a great idea)...he goes down to nukes and spikes.

Mik and I are hoofing it across Bubu at this time...I had /THF so I could thankfully flee and go about as far as Mik could in the time (twice the distance though ><). Mik goes in first, grabs Profy (only other camper wasn't in the room and didn't notice he was up) and sets about sleeping him and the links.
I'm still fully buffed from my run in with the Aroma Crawler but my MP is lacking...so after Nightly is up (thanks to a delightful WHM 70+ I believe they were named Tamale -- thank you again) and invited, I start whacking away at Profy while Refresh does its work. Put up Stoneskin, had Protect IV and Shell III still up from earlier.

I think the last couple lines of party chat before he died went like this...
Nightly: He'd better drop after all of this!
Melantha: He will...because he loves you...just like us

And he drops ^^
Nightly was still weakened and we had two or three links to kill...but Nightly got his Moldy ^^

I suspect that SE just loves to play karma fairy...
2/5 in case you were curious (both drops with Nightly present as THF70+ so TH might be helpful)
