[Eorzea]

I only recently started playing FFXIV again, so I haven't had a lot of time to fight the various Notorious Monsters (NM) roaming Eorzea. Not yet, anyway.

The two I do have experience with, however, are Pyrausta and Queen Bolete.

I want the Howling Talons from Pyrausta, but am an unfortunate 0/20+. I don't think I will be trying again any time soon.

I was much more lucky getting Eternal Shade from Queen Bolete, however. It only took four attempts!

Next on the list... Venerer's Bracers, Kokoroon's Nestpicker, etc.



How about you? What kind of success/experiences have you had with the various NM thus far?

I saw Daddy Longlegs once... >_>

[Eorzea]

Speaking of Daddy Longlegs, I killed him three times by myself, once with Dracorian. I got Elmlord's Tusk to drop on my fourth attempt (solo), so that was a 1/4 drop rate (25%).

I also soloed Bardi in the Nanawa Mines and got Divining Hat to drop on about my fourth attempt, so that was also a 1/4 drop rate (25%).

I have killed Bomb Baron in Cassiopeia Hollow more than a dozen times and have yet to get Frostbite to drop, so I have given up for the time being (it's not something I need all that badly). Let's just estimate my lack of success at 0/12.

[Eorzea]

I killed Nest Commander about eight times before getting Nighthawk Visor to drop, so about a 1/8 drop rate (13%).

With the help of Dracorian, Eliza, and Inaaca, I was able to get the Bow of Owls from Jackanapes.
