One time i was in the secret room leveling, and someone goes up to the Strange Apparatus and suddenly the Apparatus thing is like "Error, System Overload" and a Water Elemental comes out, and it cons Impossible to Gauge it kills the guy that made it spawn, and just stands there, then dissapears. it was wierd... o and for everyone that was in my pt that night... i still apolagize...... really..... im really sorry about what happened ; ;
Yes! I saw this the other night too. A level 72 NIN (at least - he was anon) soloed this thing while my pt sat and watched terrified he'd die and so would we. Well, he didn't die - he got down to about 50% life and stayed there the whole time, slowly beating away on the elemental. It was a sight to behold. He was Japanese, so we really couldn't talk to him about it, but it was interesting to watch.
From what I know of the Strange Apparatuses, you can trade an Infinity Core (dropped in dynamis or bought at AH) and a coloured chip (sold by Goblins in Bastok, Sandy and Windy) to it to obtain an item. If you use the wrong coloured chip on the wrong machine, you spawn the uber NM elem corresponding to the colour you were SUPPOSED to use. I've done this 3 times so far. Since I did my research before-hand, I never spawned an elemental. Over-all, I've lost about 7K while trying to make money on these damn things. Sucks when you pay 31K for the core and chip and end up getting a water cluster. :P

The best way to get this water cluster is just to go to La Theine Plateau cuz it always is rain there and i have farmed 8 or 9 in just under 2 hours. they spawn near some water ponds on K-11 and 10-L u can solo dem as a whm lvl 30 with no problem. =)
