Farmed these in Ranpere's Tomb as a 75Pld/Thf. Took about 5 hours nonstop. G-8 on the 2nd map. Bats aggro. 1000 eyes dont link, but they do aggro. camp in the tunnel leading to the eyes where a dire bat pops. that's all the info i have, good luck and i hope it doesnt take you 5 hours
Solo'd these easily as 73whm/bst. One bat can take down almost 2 eyes, and silence never resisted so no threat of -aga or ancient magic. Only death was blood aggro from the high lvl undead hati dogs. Perfect for skilling up my staff. Sadly, went 0/30, maybe later tonight.
Edit: Finally got eye today after a few more hours of farming, I just had crappy luck on these i guess, roughly 1/50. Now to go flex my /bst muscles for the damp eye.
These guys sure can be stingy when they want to be. I assume they all have the same drop rate, it's just luck (as is almost everything in this game involving drops and spawns).
These squishy fellows are easy to kill as long as you have 2 over 70 jobs. Their biggest threat is GA spells and ancient magic, but they're really easy to silence.
Safest camp is the tunnel with the EP/DC bat in it. The other 2 have VT skeletons or hounds, so I don't suggest you use those. Those guys are mean.
Read somewhere they do not link. I was pulling them easily with no linking and they cluster pretty good in that room. Luckily got drop on #2 kill as pld/rdm. :)
You may got aggroed by the one but I dont think they link.
0/29 these things are assess easy prey at 70 but wouldnt try to solo. unless rdm/nin or bst..nasty paralyze and spells..no drop.. if you kill the bat in the tunnel south of them (decent challenge)you can pull to there and fight...only safe place

We took them down very easy. Bio III was pretty nasty sometimes so we had to wait for it to wear off. We all died once after a Hati agroed our low HP from the side. EXP party there gave us a RII.
We got one eye for each of us, drop rate was not that bad.
After we went to check out Vrtra and he killed us all, but it was fun.
