Notes

  • Average spawn time is approximately 2~3 hours. Has been known to take as little as 30 minutes to spawn and as long as 8 hours.
  • The true placeholder appears on Widescan as the top Damselfly in the group of four between the Snippers and Thread Leeches.
  • Placeholder respawn time is exactly 5 minutes.
  • In Vana'diel time, this is 2 hours and 7 minutes after Time of Death.
  • Valkurm Emperor itself appears as the last listing before the Thread Leeches on the Widescan list in the same set of four as the placeholder.
  • Soloable by all jobs at level 35 and by most jobs at level 30, with some difficulty; Duoable by Beastmaster at level 25. (see testimonials)
  • Best area for using Wide Scan; stand in the palm trees in the lower left corner of (F-8). In that exact place you are able to do a perfect Wide Scan on all possible locations of placeholders and Valkurm Emperor.
