The damage on this is now 37, the only dagger with a higher base dmg is Relic. Very nice dagger, especially since the dagger buff. Pharpe/Sirocco is amazing. I've only seen 2 drop ever, i got the second one and supposedly im the second NA on my server :D
I heard the damage on this was now 36... maybe it was 38, not entirley sure though since I do not have one for myself as of yet. Sirocco got bumped up as well... anyways good hunting to anyone/everyone. please post new damge if you see one, or aquire one.

wow I have this dagger ^^ i cant belive I never fight with this NM, then 1/1 dagger o.O thxs to Stalitskin, Chakaz and HNMLS DarkLegions, in the server Valefor.
He seems hard at first but he's really not, if you can execute it properly by having 1 person zone/kite the summons be the puller the mobs will literally walk back to Xolotl and aggro people on the way. Their hate does not seem linked to Xolotl at all except on the initial aggro.
As long as the tunnel is clear you can zone, recast utsusemi run though the tunnel zone again and repeat until the fight is over usually without even taking damage.
Xolotl you can employ a couple of strategies by either kiting him or just straight up tanking him. If your going to straight up tank though have someone ready to sleep. Other than that he's really not all that strong. Anyone with utsusemi can handle him and just have someone stun the big spells. He's really more chaotic than he seems if you go in with a ton of people. If your a full alliance I really suggest kiting him or else a couple people always end up dying from charm.
Anyways I'm about 0/30 on the knife myself and my poor linkshell is really being good sports about it coming every day. I feel bad though that for a rare/ex drop it is this rare and dependant on so much help. Every day I ask my friends for continued support it kills me a little more inside to do so, my linkshell really is a great group of people. Why can't the drop rate be like joyeuse.
0/30 ...... Im know as the Xolotl guy now on my server ...... Common did SE change the Drop or something 30 time in a ROw........ and not a single P harpe... GOD help me im gonna call a gm if he doesnt drop it tomarrow!
OK as of today im 0/17 on P Harpe from Xolotl. he has droped the following: 4x B Kote 7x Zoolater hat 0x P Harpe
He really hates me. But im gonna keep killing him till i get that Harpe. Killed him so many times in the last month we are practically pro's now. we killed him with 5 people today.
got my harpe off xolotl about 2 months ago w... was helping a mnk friend get his kotes, and the harpe ended up dropping. very sweet indeed^^
my setup was 3 bsts, thf, mnk and whm. thf, mnk and whm kept zoning the pets to boneyard while 3 bst beat on xolotl. the fight was about 40 mins or so. good luck guys. :)
p.s. it dropped on my third kill. first kill dropped the kotes, second kill only dropped crystals.
So there I am in Tahrongi duoing with my wife and my LS says this guy has popped. They recruit some help and i tag along, and by luck i happen to be the only THF on atm. we try to kill it once, and get owned, charmga sucks. Second try, Titan tanks much of the fight (love my smn buddy) and IT DROPS! <Perseus's Harpe> everyone passes, and omg im racing to 73. too bad im 66, now for that damn AJ he dropped Bandomusha Kote too, but our MNK was dead at the time and our nin lotted them so someone would get some use out of them. we're going back for more kote! <3 OmegaReborn, Fenrir server.
I want this dagger so bad but i cant even find Xolot, Dunno if im even in the right place (right before the tunnel to Boneyard gully near the dead skeletons) or if someone else has killed em, but i camped him after maintenece and he didnt pop for 5 hours. then i left. T_T
If you can get to Boneyard Gully and walk against the west wall and head south then you should come across some Scorps and 2 of the purple plants right next to each other, thats where Xolotl pops.
Got my LS to come, since we had no MP refreshers at the time we had to resort to 2 tanks zoneing in and out w/ the pets and everyone else on the NM. he want down alot easier then the pets did in my opinion. Too bad we only got B kote, oh well, gratz to our SAM. Going back again till i get it. ^^
this is to VTXFool ;; the link for the pics you have posted, has a person that posted a pic of the Hat that also drops from this Nm. Except;;; hes in moghouse talking to LS in BLM AF body gloves legs and boots;;; dual weilding Katanas;; and wearing zoolater hat 73 bst.. >< WTF!!!!!!
Uh you got it all wrong. The reason why that so called person was wearing all kind of Specific Job Items. Is because its a Mannequin. You place a Mannequin and you get to dress it up XD. The mannequin can wear any type of armor or weapon.

Perseus was a hero of Greek Mythology. Long story short, he killed Medusa, one of the gorgons, which were 3 sisters that could look at you and turn you to stone. I'll post the long version later -L- *lazy*
When we 1st ran into the Xolotl HNM in AC there was a Japanese player standing by watching us, when I asked him what Xolot dropped, he said that it had dropped a crystal the previous night. So I was not expecting much.
I believe we were the 1st ones on the Bismarck server to actually get the two drops (Perseus's Harpe, Zoolater Hat).
Here is a link to some great photos: http://archdominus.valkurm.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=980
Sweet pics, I set his /hurray motion as my Desktop Background lol, I used to have a picture of a Thf fighting the "Boss" of Dynamis-Bastok. I like the Harpe pic way more ^^ have fun with it!
Hmmmm... Has anyone actually seen this weapon? On another PC or the AH? Never been sold in jeuno AH on Unicorn, nor have I ever seen it on another player... The stats seem odd... If it is indeed crafted from a "regular" Harpe then it should be a higher level, right? Example: counquest items and leaping boots -> winged boots. Also i do not think I've ever seen an upgraded version of a weapon that has a higher delay than the one it was crafted from... Not too sure on that though, so please don't flame if it exists.. >< Also a damage increase with 3 points? that's alot, especially for a dagger... If someone have seen one please let me know! or even better; if you have a pic send it in! ><
Ok... I appreciate your info, but I do not appreciate the Rate-down nor the snotty "DOH". Had it ever ocurred to you that maybe at the time of posting neither the pic nor the info were available?
Anyway, Thx for the info and you're welcome, you have just been rated down as well. Cheers! ^^
