  • The Time chests give an additional 10 minutes.
  • Drops AF+1 materials for BRD, BST, NIN, THF, PLD, DRK, MNK, RDM, RNG, SAM, DRG, BLM, SMN, WAR, WHM ?

Apollyon-SW1

First Floor

  • Enemies: Fir Bholg x10 (Fomor)
    • About 4250 HP
    • Galka = PLD, Elvaan = THF, Hume = SAM, Tarutaru = BLM, Mithra = RDM
    • The Mage Fir Bholg are highly resistant to magic damage.
    • Each has a chance of dropping an Ancient Beastcoin.
    • Linking by sound.
    • Use 2hr abilities once each.
    • Susceptible to Lullaby and Sleep
    • Summoner pullers need to be very careful, the will link and stay linked at times on pet pulls
    • Once aggroed, the alliance will have hate on the ones that aggro, regardless if you sac pull.
  • You can open only one of the three chests.
  • The Vortex and Chests come from the same race of Fomor, possibly the same race as the person who first entered the zone.
  • The Items chest has 4 Ancient Beastcoins and 1-2 AF+1 material (BRD, DRK, SAM, BLM, WAR, ?).

Second Floor

Arboricole Beetle
Arboricole Crawler
Arboricole Hornet
Arboricole Opo-opo
Arboricole Raven
Arboricole Spider
Apollyon Sapling
  • Killing a Jidra causes one of the other monsters to spawn.
  • Defeating the large, leafless Jidra opens the vortex (and doesn't spawn a kid).
    • The large Jidra has the same special attack changes as Cemetery Cherry
    • Leafstorm dispels all effects and gives Slow instead of damage.
  • The Jidra never drop Ancient Beastcoins, but the others always drop one.
  • All enemies are immune to Lullaby and Repose.
  • When all enemies are dead, the Time, Items and Restore chests spawn. You can only open one.
    • They actually appear farther south than shown on the map.
  • The Items chest has 4 Ancient Beastcoins and an AF+1 material (RNG, WHM, SMN, BLM, WAR, ?).


Apollyon-SW3

Third Floor

  • Enemies: Armoury Crate x8 (Mimics)
    • Often drop an Ancient Beastcoin.
    • They only aggro when someone clicks on them to determine whether they are mimics or real chests. They are passive otherwise.
  • Defeating one of the Mimics opens the vortex.
  • The Time, Items and Restore chests are hidden among the Mimics. You can open all three.
    • They are randomly distributed--they are not in the places marked on the map.
    • You can't tell which chest it is which without opening it; they all look like Items chests.
  • Note: Mimics have the Draw In ability, so trying to use a SMN and a pet to find the real chests won't work.
  • Death Trap (AoE Stun and Poison) has a huge range (>31').
