Notes:

  • Spawned by trading a Trophy Shield to the ??? at D-4 in the lower valley back behind a bunch of Gigas mobs.
  • If you wipe he moves back to his spawn and begins to regen. Got it down to 50% before wiping and it regened to 70% then despawned. The ??? despawns after he is gone and doesn't come back until 5 minutes (roughly) later.
  • Used Standard Gigas moves, Also had an Auto EnSpell effect. He strongly favors Grand Slam using it 3 times in rapid succession around 30%.
  • The aforementioned effect could possibly be triggered by 2hr, our group did not notice any added damage until the NM was at 50% or lower.
  • Head Butt has low rate of landing, Temporal Shift landed 100% Frypan and Tail Slap were ineffective.
  • Has a high (90%) Double Attack rate.
