Equipment
This ENM is level 60 cap, please plan accordingly. Any equipment you have on that is over lvl 60 will be automagically unequipped once you enter the ENM. The equipment I suggest is equipment I have used in this ENM. Any equipment that you have that is in the 50-60 range that is comparable should be adequate. You do not need Charm equipment, there is nothing to charm in this ENM, consequently you will want to gear for damage.

 * Range: Bibiki Seashell, Pet Food Zeta, Warm Meat Broth
 * Head: Beast Helm
 * Body: Beast Jackcoat, Scorpion Harness, Haubergeon

 * Ring: Shikaree Ring, STR Ring
 * Back: Hi-Potion Tank, Evasion, or National mantle.

Food
I recommend STR and Accuracy food for this ENM, consequently I normaly use a Sole Sushi. However any kabob or normal melee food you may have should be sufficient. I also bring a Pear au Lait along with me, this will give you Regen for the duration of its effect.

Medicines
I also get a Hi-Potion Tank or buy 2-3 Hi-Potions.

Jug Pet
I normally use Warm Meat Broth which is Saber Siravarde. I have never tried it with another jug pet so if anyone has any additional information please feel free to add.

The Method

 * Use your Hi-Potion Tank if you one so that you have 2-3 Hi-Potions
 * Upon entering the ENM you lose your sub job and are capped at level 60 so check your gear to make sure that all the equipment you need is actually equipped.
 * Eat your food.
 * Use your Pear au Lait.
 * Call Beast Saber Siravarde with your Warm Meat Broth.
 * Familiar
 * Run forward and tell Saber Siravarde to attack the Fantoccini. Do not touch the Moblin Fantocciniman or he will join the fight and you will lose.
 * At this point the Fantoccini will pull out his pet. You attack and kill that, leave your pet on the Fantoccini.  You should kill the pet before you get 100% TP, do not use your TP on this pet or on the Fantoccini.
 * After the Fantoccinis pet is dead attack the Fantoccini but do not pull hate off your pet.
 * Use your Hi-Potions if you need to.
 * When the Fantoccini pulls out his 2nd pet, switch target to this and Rampage it to kill it quickly, then switch back to the Fantoccini.
 * Use your Hi-Potions if you need to.
 * Reward Saber Siravarde with the Pet Food Zeta if he needs it.
 * Sic Saber Siravarde on the Fantoccini when he gets about 130+ TP.
 * Save your TP to Rampage any additional Pets that the Fantoccini may pull out. You can also use it on the Fantoccini if he is close to death to finish him off.

Disclaimer
This guide is no guarantee that you will win, while I do win the majority of my runs I have lost a few. I normally lose when the Moblin Fantocciniman heals the Fantoccini to full health one or more times during the fight.

Good luck! --Drinian
