Category:Allied Notes Notorious Monsters

Allied Notes Notorious Monster (ANNM) battles involve Notorious Monsters that are spawned using key items ("crates") obtained with Allied Notes.

Obtaining the Entry Items
Each nation offers a different set of crates that may be obtained. You cannot carry more than three of these key items at any one time, and cannot only obtain one from each nation once per Earth day (resets at Japanese Midnight).

These crates can be obtained from the following NPCs:

 * Windurst Waters (S)

Initiating a Battle
In order to initiate a ANNM battle, a party member needs to select the Shredded Label in the correct zone. The crate for that particular battle will be removed from all party members.
 * All party members must posess the correct crate in order to initiate the battle.

The Battle
While battling the NM, no experience points will be lost if you are defeated. However, venturing too far from the spawn point will cause the NM to disengage, lose hate, and eventually depop.

Each monster is spawned with multiple helpers, or pets. These do not share hate, and can easily be pulled off.

Upon killing certain pets you might receive a message saying:
 * Your display of Prowess in battle has earned you an experience bonus as a reward!
 * At the end of the battle, a brown chest with black trim will appear. Opening this chest will give you a bonus to the experience points earned.
 * Your display of Prowess in battle has earned you a superior augment as a reward!
 * At the end of the battle, a blue chest with gold trim will appear. This chest contains a randomly Augmented Item.
 * Your display of Prowess in battle has earned you an increase in gil as a reward!
 * At the end of the battle, a brown chest with gold trim will appear. This chest will contain multiple items that can be sold.
 * The (Monster) has stopped moving.
 * The main NM will stop moving for a time, allowing party members to damage it without the monster attacking back (however, party attacks still create enmity that will take effect when the NM returns to its normal state).
