Honestly, this is a pretty simple fight should you get positioning correct, and as long as people are paying attention. Killed with MNK MNK RDM WHM COR WAR BLM THF with very little difficulty. Could easily have done it with less. MNKs had Razed Ruin/Sanguine Scythe Atmas, mages had Minikin Monstrosity/Allure.
Pulled Glavoid to the SE to the slopes at J-6. The MNKs and WAR positioned themselves so that Glavoid was up top, and they were just below it, but still within melee range, like the crude diagram below:
_ Glavoid
Melee _/
This way Gorge and Disgorge were a complete non-issue. Melees turned of course when it TPed. Due to the hate reset from Blood Weapon, we kept both MNKs on it fulltime. Due to it's erratic nature with nukes, we quickly decided to not bother nuking at any stage during the fight. Enough times the chatlog would look something like this which basically slowed us down:
Glavoid starts casting Stonega IV. BLM starts casting Blizzard IV. Stonega IV hits MNK for x damage. Glavoid starts casting Slowga. Blizzard IV recovers 2000HP.
Only things to watch out for really is it's Absorb move. If Glavoid moves out of position the priority is to get him back in place and dispel him ASAP. If your positioning is correct Gorge and Disgorge will not hit a single person.
A vastly overexaggerated fight in terms of difficulty. Really not that bad if you're prepared. Best of luck! Crysten 15:03, December 5, 2010 (UTC)
- If you have a BRD with at least 2 AF3+2 pieces, Earth Carol II will completely nullify disgorge and thus your positioning is irrelevant as long as melee are within range of carol. Can be trio'd BLU+BRD+RDM fairly easily. He's a completely joke with carol. Really kinda disappointing.--Billzey 09:05, December 6, 2010 (UTC)

Should we add regurgitated wings as a drop? From the description it seems clear that he drops them. --Fledrel 16:10, July 19, 2010 (UTC)
It seems likely that Reguritated Wings drop from Glavoid, given the pattern of other two Quest/Mission NMs, but I'd say hold off adding it to the page until some confirmation comes forward.--Mooffins 01:57, July 21, 2010 (UTC)
In the item description for regurgitated wings it said they were retrieved from the glavoid, it must not have agreed with the worms stomach or some such. Seems unlikely we will discover it drops from something else. --Josephpate 02:14, July 21, 2010 (UTC)
Ya, regurgitated wing most likely. Also, I call BS on him being level 75- how does that not have a verification flag? --JoQuo711 05:05, July 21, 2010 (UTC)
I call BS on it being 75 also so I went ahead and tossed the verification tag in. Hitoma 11:12, July 21, 2010 (UTC)
Hitoma 11:12, July 21, 2010 (UTC) After a great deal of searching and reading forums as to the NM's people have been killing. I added Regurgitated Wings to the drop list, but put a verification tag as well, until certain. ---Fledrel
Killed this last night with alliance. It dropped two Glavoid Shells and the Tokon Hachimaki, but no Regurgitated Wings (or Brisk Mask ;;) --Jhubsch 13:30, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
Congrats on kill but uh.... basic alliance pt setup? Mage heavy? DD heavy? what are we talkin here... Donwu 03:39, August 9, 2010 (UTC)
Can the person use key items popping this NM confirm this? Do you lose all your collected key item upon popped? Do you get to keep these key items? It looks to me getting key items is such a big pain >< Chichicha 10:51, August 31, 2010 (UTC)
You lose Key items used when popping any Abyssea NMs that require them. Lost full set of Kulkulkan keys popping Kulkulkan for example. Lunaretic 17:04, August 31, 2010 (UTC)
estimated drop rate on regurgitated wings? can he drop 2? is he gauranteed to drop 1? --Josephpate 02:05, September 15, 2010 (UTC)
no guarantee on wings without !! proc for synth mats. No idea what rate is with !! proc for synth mats.
Two tanks and an extra body stand in front of glavoid. They should turn around when glavoid readies a TP move so they don't heal it as much. Blood weapon will reset hate, so tanks will need to have a plan to spike hate such as cure cheats (cancel hp buff and cure self) or saving TP. Job abilities and 2hours might be down since glavoid kills your ja recast with one of its moves. And TP can be lost if glavoid strips your equipment. Have macros for requipping everything.
smns sit inside it from the opposite side with their garudas out (not autoattacking) and their fingers on their predator claws macros. When glavoid starts casting magic, smns hit their bloodpact macro and then put away garuda. Melee can do the same thing with WS by standing inside engaged and facing backwards until glavoid starts casting magic. Attacking like this should reduce the number of times you accidentally heal glavoid. Slowga is a really fast cast so you need to be quick.
When it absorbs buffs, rebuff tanks and dispel it like crazy.
Stonega IV can be interrupted by the bloodpacts, but it might be worth having one stunner stun it if the smns aren't ready (especially right at the pull) or their bloodpacts are down. You probably don't want to stun stonega IV if the smns are bloodpacting.
