Vana'diel Bestiary: Sozu Rogberry  

me 72 war/nin and bro 70 thf/nin and npc's (mine 48) (his 55) both on soothing healers after about 50 mins of trying to get the pop item we got it and spawned him both of us had 300 tp then i mighty strikes rampage him for about 100 dmg then he Dancing edge for about 800 dmg alrdy down to 1/2 then i keep hitting keeping utsusemi ichi up and then when hes at 1% i die but bro gets his knife yay so its a pretty easy fight

Every part of Temple of Uggalepih is swarming with peeps, even Den of Rancor. If their not fighting for Pursuer pops their fighting over Chopper and Stabber pops for the Prelate Keys so they can fight for Pursuers down the Carby Mit Halls.

I was down there to get my Carby Mits, took hours to get a prelate key cause of all the people. We tried that trick for agroing magic thru the door, wouldn't work. There was even a party on the other side I could target, asked a player named Lotus to open the door for us so we could get the Carby Mits, said he didn't understand english, asked in translator "<Please Help Me Out><Gate Breach><Carby Mitts><Thank You>" at which he replied <Thanks for the offer but I'll have to pass>.

Ok, lets say that a JP wouldn't understand that comment and think I was asking for help with the carby rather then the door, but I've seen Lotus doing english /shout's and /say's in both Jeuno and Whitegate. I happened to be on my 75thf at the time for the fight, selfish little tea-bagger was to scared to open the gate thinking our party was going to take all their precious Pursuer pops, the little ******.

I've already made my decision to wait it out about a week or 2 till the rush goes down, I've waited 3 years and killed that Rogberry more times then possibly remembered and I can wait a week more for my dagger.

Point is, please don't forget yourselves while playing, rude people suck and ruin the game for other people, how you act comes back on you, your crappy childish greedy actions will **** off players and tends to make them act that way towards others which gets spread farther and farther like a disease.

Kindness gets kindness, please try and remember that.

As for the little jelly ****** Lotus, guess if I want people to be nicer I should practice what I'm preaching. Guess I should take him off that LS Slap alert and let all the whm's I know they don't have to avoid his cure and raise requests like HIV.

For the lamer who made 92 million off a knife I have wanted and would never sell for over a year....***** you people like you ruin this game. What would you do with 92M in this game anyways.
Well, as of today(right this minute) on the Auction House in Fairy Server the knife went from 60M to 21M to 4M to 3M...lol thank you SE as for the guy I mentioned above I guess you can buy u one. As, for me I am going to get me one and never ever sell it. Yea I got luckier than some but, I have paid my dues and I still have to get the lantern. I have beaten sozu so many times I could set up a Tonberry Coat factory right outside the Castle. To all the real Thf's (and you know who you are) right on! I'm out see ya in Dynamis for that TH4 lol......sniff .....sniff ..../cry aw man I forgot about the arms lol.

can someone post a pic of the drop?

With new update....Get your pop item and bam....U have a knife that drops 100% GO GO GO!!!

Flickering Lantern 
A gilt lantern treasured by the fiend 
Sozu Rogberry. The eerie flame burning 
inside emits a surreal radiance. 

This appears to be the pop item, it's in the dats. What drops it, I have no clue yet.

Yay finally SE does what many have wanted. All the good pop items are gonna drop Rare/EX or by force spawn. So long RMT... Better luck next time to you.

Now only thing I need to do is find out how to find the pop item and go try to get my knife after all this time.

Thanks SE! Your #1

!!!!!!The last 4 days now ive decided to put my time into this NM, and reading the new update we have to pop him with a trade item probably to a ???. Just like the phantom or morion worm. NOW wtf is the drop and where do I go to learn wat to use cause this is insane now. 21 hours I spent hunting this bad boy claimed 0 times and he popped twice. I'm serious about this knife and i will get it by watever means it takes. SOOOOOO........ wat do we need to pop him now, we need to get some info on this fast and by all means we need it NOW!!!!!!!!

Thank you, Sozu. You have grossed me a total of 92,000,000 gil.

Double Post. Allakhazam decided not to post anything this morning until I clicked on Post Message well over 10 times for each post all morning.

I'm not a patient person, I have no time to waste on hnm/endgame shells who would exploit me for th2 or my blm, and often enough I have no patience for sitting for hours in a little room waiting for a little green man.

Btw, regular mobs will not enter the room where sozu spawns they will stand outside and use ranged attacks until they kill you or you kill them.

I have camped for hours usually when bored beyond natural tolerance, or while helping random people with testimonies, coffer keys or just general fun. Every time I camp I notice a room full of lazy peopple just standing there. They'll chat with you while you kill placeholders. It's amazing and they are amazed you can solo placeholders, just like good fekin noobs.

But when your NM you just killed placeholders for hours to spawn eventually does pop they are happy to cash in on your effort. NO offense to those who have successfully camped and claimed this NM over stun, dia, provoke, darts, ki blast, commies, bots, and God himself occasionally, but 8 cgf botting all with different offsets pretty much ruins the dart claim theory.

I am just a humble PS2 player I know my limitations and what my thf is capable of I couldn't cheat even if I had to. All that said to say this, you are all full of ****. Good luck camping against rmt teams from hell and good luck getting this knife unless you have $1.2k dollars to buy the gil for this knife or can outcheat the cheaters. I don't have that kind of money or resource so ***** you and ***** SE, until we find a world without rmt and with a Rare Ex thf knife.

I wrote an extensive guide for camping Sozu Rogberry, thread is in the THF forums:
