Is there a specific interval that this guy respawns at or is it random?

Spawns at (H-7) at the first map. There are two placeholder leeches in the room (there are also 2 ghasts and 1 ironshell in the room). Pigeon's Blood Ruby IS a 100% drop. Likes to use TP Drain fequently and hits pretty fast. Solo ~Lv.58+ for melee. Happy hunting :D

What level do you need to be to defeat it? I am a Thief so take into account i cant solo anything near my level, it has to be alot weaker than me.

That is the dumbest statement I have heard in a long time. THF/NIN can solo better than nearly every other class, until lvl 74 when Utsusemi:Ni evens out the playing field. If I had to, I could solo a VT using Utsusemi:Ichi, Bloody Bolts, Sleep Bolts and my evasion gear.

This is a really old post, and it's a shame no one will see this reply.

Taking into account that Masan links with leeches around him, I'd say you need to be strong enough to very quickly dispatch the Royal Leeches. If you can kill those in say, 10 hits, Masan should die in about 35-40 hits.

Since you would likely take a few hits yourself, you need to be 55+ to keep from aggroing the Ironshells and Ghasts nearby during your fight.

I've submitted a picture of me fighting Masan with my BST partner (not shown in screenshot). Waiting for them to post it. ^^
bug or what?

After going thru the door, coming FROM Norg, go straight into an area with a little pond to your left, kill Leeches, Masan is a lottory pop, and Pigeon blood ruby is a 100% drop, sells for 50k on Siren server.

Very easy, but has high HP and TP drain :(

Im a bard, so that meant a long fight :(
