Giddeus NM

Notes - Giddeus:

  • Lottery spawn of the Yagudo Piper around (H-14) on Map 1 ("surface level").
    • Yagudo Piper's respawn time is 8 minutes. There is a single Yagudo Piper in the NM area.
    • Respawn time is approximately 1-2 hours. Has been known to go 4+ hours without spawning
  • Uses the Bard two-hour ability Soul Voice.
  • Known soloable around Level 30. (see testimonials)
  • Bird Whistle is much more likely to drop than the Bonze's Circlet.
  • Donto Trial 644, This NM must be killed 3 times, you do not need to get the kill shot to record it for your path, making it much easier to camp this with the other SAM's that will undoubtedly be there.

Notes - Campaign:

  • Appears during Campaign Battles as the leader of the Yagudo Theomilitary's Divine Inspirers. They are deployed exclusively to West Sarutabaruta or Castle Oztroja.
  • Uses Ninjutsu in addition to songs, particularly Utsusemi.
  • If West Sarutabaruta (S) is under Beastmen control, Vuu Puqu will typically defend the fortifications.
  • May use Soul Voice.
  • Vuu Puqu's songs are extremely powerful, beyond anything players can match.
    • Minuet will make her regular attacks inflict enormous damage.
      • Minuet will also make Sweep do between 1000 to 3000 damage.
    • Minne will take damage down to single digits for most jobs.
    • Mambo will make it nearly impossible to land a blow on her.
    • March will give her an attack speed close to Hundred Fists.
  • Dispel is strongly advised if you're going to fight this NM.
    • Also be aware of her unit and their songs.
  • Possibly immune to stun effects.
