Talk:Dynamis - Bastok

Went in on a run 5/12/11 starting on Watersday, approximately 6pm EDT. Group was WHM/WHM/NIN/BLU/RDM/BRD.

AF was plentiful. Currency was not.

Sneak is sufficient to get by all regular Quadavs. NMs are true sight (not sure if they are also true sound).

Steelwall Bijou is the name of the item used to pop the megaboss, Gu'Dha Effigy. This item drops off of the roaming NMs in the area. Doing so shifted us into having a LV cap status indicator added for the duration of the fight - presumably rendering Effigy our mob onry. Gu'Dha's trigger location is approximately at H-10 where you exit out to South Gustaberg. The area in front of here is a fairly safe camp spot.

I presume that most of the Odious pop items drop randomly from any regular Quadav in the zone. It might be possible that the Quadavs near a given NM ??? dropped the items that popped THAT particular NM. That said, these were the confirmed drops that we saw by the F-5 crowd of mobs:


 * Odious Backscale - Vanguard Drakekeeper
 * Odious Engraving - Vanguard Undertaker
 * Odious Charm - Vanguard Kusa

The ??? at F-5 (path to Markets) corresponded to the Odious Engraving. We popped Va'Zhe Pummelsong, a Bard NM, which promptly Lullabied us and spammed Wrath of Gu'Dha. We would've been able to survive this, except that 30 seconds after the time we traded, the mobs in front of the ??? repopped, so the links wiped us.

There was a camp area on the ramp leading to Markets, but not much of one.

We did not experience the other 3-4 roaming NMs doing Wrath of Gu'Dha.

Gu'Nhi was in the stables.
