Testimonials

  • Soloable by a PLD50/WAR25 with ease. Just use Sentinel at the start, and Cure III when necessary.
  • Soloable by MNK45/WAR22 when using Dodge, Focus and Hundred Fists.
  • Soloed as MNK42/DNC20 using Dodge, Focus, and Hundred Fists. Have 100TP @ start, eliminate one quickly with Raging Fists, continue the fight normally using Curing Waltz as needed. No medicine or hp/s drink required.
  • Soloable by WHM50/BLK17 poorly equiped: died two times until I learned the trick. Make sure you have sneak up, get a good distance, use Repose on one of them. I was lucky the last time because my Repose landed RIGHT as the other two de-popped (proving you do not have to kill all three). I died the first time fast because I was running around doing other things before this quest, and all my good armor was in storage :) If most people attempt this, what will happen is you will sleep one, another will come after you, and the third one will just sit there (and you will not have to deal with him). I am sure anyone with better equipment would do well, as I was also using my AF. Make sure to keep Repose on the second one after he wakes! -- Madd74 07:34, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
  • Duoable THF46/WAR23 and DRG62/SAM31. I probably could have soloed, but it was the THF that needed the quest. Clear out the leeches nearby and then let the NM have it. Jump/High Jump/Penta Thrust took out one in a few seconds. Keep up with your Jumps and you'll be done in no time. THF distracted one so DRG took minimal damage. (Dkhyrosha 00:13, 7 June 2009 (UTC))
  • Soloable PLD44/BST22. *No TP or 2-Hr /ja Required* Zoning from Western Altepa Desert, I charmed the Scimitar Scorpion (near first puddle of water - no CHR gear equipped) and according to my experience, was the only mob that aggroed on the way to the Odd Coral. Kill the surrounding Thread Leeches prior to checking the ???. Next, check the ???, now you can either let the Scimitar Scorpion work on one Korroloka Leech while you hit another, or just both attack one (I attacked a different one). (Note: The Scimitar Scorpion keeps hate exceptionally well if you do decide to attack a single one, I was averaging 30-40 damage while the scorpion was hitting for 50-60's.) Remember to heal at around 280~ HP and it will be a quick win. (9/19/09) [IGN:Fovkawm 15:18, 20 Sept 2009]
  • Soloable by BLU45/DNC. Got HP/MP regen from the field manual (in South Gustaberg), put Cocoon and Silent Oil on and popped the leeches. Attacked one of them and another linked (weirdly, the furthest one away not the one in the middle), so used Soporific and killed the first, then the linker. Then killed the third. Easy, really.
  • Soloable by 57BLM/WHM. Sneak-popped the NMs, killed one with a Burst. Second leech aggroed, and was taken down with 3 well-placed nukes. Cast Sleep II on the third, then rested MP to cast another Burst. The caution taken in this battle was definitely superfluous, and the three leeches could probably be taken on at close range all at once with spell interruption rate -% spells/equipment. --Wetton 04:11, November 6, 2009 (UTC)
