*Right after answering all his questions, Waoud will tell you which kind of treasure he's interested in, but you won't be able to progress until the next Vana'diel day and until you zone at least once.
*When Waoud asks for the treasure, he will use the following clues '''(Make sure you read the item entries themselves for important info!)''':

* "The treasure I would have you seek is a pinch of golden sand. It is said to glow with the light of the sun and be found only on a certain beach."
** {{Item Tooltip|Sunsand}}, [[Valkurm Dunes]] (H-9) Only spawns during dust storms.
**This is the only requested item that can be purchased at the [[Auction House]] ([[File:Auction House 16.png|link=]] ➞ Other ➞ Misc.)

* "The treasure I would have you seek is a jewel. It is said to glow with a bluish tint and be found near the bank of a certain river."
** '''Unequip your Main and Sub weapons in order to pick this item up!'''
** {{Item Tooltip|Siren's Tear}}, [[North Gustaberg]] near (J-9) along the river, use tab button to seek out the blank spot. (Appears as a ???)
*** [[Port Bastok]] [[homepoint]] exit is closest.

* "The treasure I would have you seek is a precious stone. It is said to be as red as blood and found in a land of geysers."
** {{Item Tooltip|Dangruf Stone}}, [[Dangruf Wadi]] (I/J-5)

* Trade him the item and he will tell you to go to [[Aydeewa Subterrane]].
**Keep the requested item in your inventory. You won't get the next cutscene at the pond if you don't have the item on you.
* Enter Aydeewa Subterrane at (G-7) in [[Bhaflau Thickets]], and proceed to the platform at (H-9) for a cutscene. During the cutscene, choose to take his hand to continue.
** The [[VW|Voidwatch]] warp is the fastest shortcut to this location.
** Make sure to take his hand. If you refuse him every time instead, the entire quest will reset and you'll have to start over from the beginning.

* When the cutscene is over, you will be returned to Aht Urhgan Whitegate and be able to change to Blue Mage.
** The item you brought will still be in your inventory afterwards. At this point you're free to use it on another quest, throw it out, etc.
* You can return to [[Waoud]] and ask him to "gaze away" at your fate to get a cutscene. This is necessary for the next quest.

|Image=
}}
== Walkthrough ==
*Speak with [[Justinius]] on the top floor of [[Tavnazian Safehold]] to activate the quest and receive a [[Monarch Linn Patrol Permit]].
**Every member of the alliance needs a [[Monarch Linn Patrol Permit]]. The key item is needed to enter the BCNM and will vanish upon entrance.
*Travel to [[Monarch Linn]].
**Fastest way is through [[Riverne - Site B01|Riverne - Site #B01]] [[Home Point]] and interacting with the '''Spatial Displacement'''.
**If you do not have the [[Riverne - Site B01|Riverne - Site #B01]] [[Home Point]], you will need 2 [[Giant Scale|Giant Scales]] to get through Riverne - Site #A01 or 1 [[Giant Scale]] to get through Riverne - Site #B01.
***[[Giant Scale]] is an EX drop from [[Firedrake|Firedrakes]] or [[Ignidrake|Ignidrakes]].

== Fight Details==
*The BCNM is scaled acording to the number of members in the alliance. One additional Mammet will appear every 2 members in the alliance: For a 1-2 member party, 1 Mammet will spawn. For a 3-4 member party 2 Mammets will spawn, and so on, for a maximum of 9 Mammets.
*The [[Mammet-800]] opponents have access to the same abilities as the [[Mammet-19 Epsilon]] in [[Promathia Mission 2-5]], though scaled up in difficulty for this uncapped fight.
**[[Yellow Liquid]] will still lock a [[Mammet-800]] into its current form temporarily. The [[Mammet-800]] can drop 0-3 [[Yellow Liquid]] each.
*The [[Mammet-800]] will change stance when a PC enters the grassy arena. From this point, you have 1 minute until they attack your alliance, regardless of whether you have performed any action against them.
*The fight ends as soon as the last [[Mammet-800]] is defeated.
== Rewards ==
*Return to [[Justinius]] after winning the fight to receive your reward.
**Other rewards can include (less frequently than [[Miratete's Memoirs]]): [[Behemoth Hide]], [[Angel Skin]], [[Bison Steak]], [[Cloud Evoker]], [[Dragon Bone]], [[Dragon Heart]], [[Mannequin Hands]], [[Orichalcum Ore]], [[Oversized Fang]], [[Raxa]], [[Sea Spray Risotto]], and [[Unicorn Horn]].
*This quest can be repeated after every Conquest tally.

|Notes=
*Only the '''Bozzetto Consul''' needs to be defeated in order to win. It and a '''Sabotender Dulce''' are present initially upon entry.
*The '''Bozzetto Consul''' will summon additional Antica (varying with difficulty) approximately every 15~120 seconds.
:*Adds ''must'' be defeated in order to win, even if done so after the '''Bozzetto Consul''' is.
:*Adds are likely called at certain HP percentages with a max wait between summoning of a minute. If the Consul's HP is rapidly dropping it will chain summon adds. {{verification}}.
:*Defeating the summoned adds will significantly increase the attack of the '''Bozzetto Consul''' with each one defeated.
:*Adds will use their job corresponding {{icon|sp}} 1-Hours near at the start of a fight.
:*Adds are called in the order of WAR → RNG → BLM → THF (E+) → PLD (N+)
:*Adds are immune to sleep.
*The '''Sabotender Dulce''' will flee around the battlefield and will eventually run into range to do needles move, the damage being dependent on the difficulty chosen:
::

:*While the '''Sabotender Dulce''' is out of range, the '''Bozetto Consul''' will take less damage.
::*[[Tomahawk]] will help to decrease this effect.
:*The '''Sabotender Dulce''' itself is weak, but takes -99% AoE damage.
::*Using [[Konzen-ittai]] will cause the following WS to miss.
:*Adds will not be summoned after the '''Sabotender Dulce''' is defeated. The message ''"The call goes unheeded!"'' will be displayed.

*'''All Antica use the following TP Moves''':
:*'''Jamming Wave''': {{magical}} {{wind}} (AoE) Damage and Silence.
:*'''Magnetite Cloud''': {{breath}} {{earth}} (Conal) Damage and Gravity.
:*'''Sandstorm''': {{magical}} {{dark}} (AoE) Inflicts Blind.
:*'''Sand Shield'''; {{buff}} Gains Defense Bonus.
:*'''Sand Trap''': {{earth}} (AoE) Damage, Petrification, and resets Enmity.
:*'''Sand Veil''': {{buff}} Gains Evasion Bonus.
:*'''Shoulder Slam''': {{physical}} Damage and Knockback.
:*'''Spikeball''': {{physical}} Damage and Poison.

'''Bozzetto Consul''':
*Uses {{icon|sp}} '''[[Mighty Strikes]]'''.

*Resists {{dark}} and {{earth}}.
*Immune to Bind and Gravity.
*Additionally has the following nonstandard and enhanced version moves:
:*'''Sand Rush''' - {{physical}} (AoE) High damage. Absorbable via 3 [[Copy Image|shadows]].
::*This move was previously known as '''Sodstorm''' when first introduced in May 2017.
:*'''Fettering Tackle''': {{physical}} High Damage and Knock Back.
::*Sand Rush and Fettering Tackle will inflict heavy damage to players, especially while the Consul has [[Mighty Strikes]] active.
:::*Using an enhanced [[Geo-Wilt]] and/or moves like [[Sentinel's Scherzo]] are recommended.
:*'''Thornball''': {{physical}} Damage, Paralysis, and Poison.
:*'''Sand Shroud''': {{buff}} Gains Evasion Bonus.

'''Bozzetto Valiant'''

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''':
* TANK, GEO, COR (or DD), SCH/WHM, BLM x2
* COR provides Wizard's and Warlock's rolls.
* Indi-Acumen, Entrust (onto SCH) Indi-Malaise, Geo-Focus (after pull). Malaise may or may not proc due to the Cactuar running very quickly in and out of range. Geo bubble is mainly to help absorb needles (but it should not go off if your group is prepared).
* Tank runs in to pull main boss at center; party follows; GEO casts Geo-Focus on self for quick setup. SCH opens with Gravitation and BLMs should be able to take out the Cactuar in a single volley of Elemental Sealed Death (from each BLM). Manawall/Convert if you need to and finish off the Cactuar if you got unlucky with resists. Done right, there should be no adds, or at worst just a single set of adds.
* Tank should grab boss (and any adds) to zone-in corner and mages should stand at typical backline job distance.
* GEO should keep Indi-Acumen and now use Geo-Malaise. If there are adds, take them out with AoE spells.
* For quick finish, have SCH use SP and create Fragmentation to burst wind-based spells.
* For slower finish (no SP), have COR self-SC (or SC w/ tank) when SCH's stratagems are down.
* SCH/WHM should help tank stay un-enfeebled.

'''Difficult''':

'''Normal''':
* Players can just bum rush the '''Bozzetto Consul''' and kill him first so his attack isn't raised, then defeat the adds to clear this Ambuscade. Save the THF ('''Stalker''') and PLD ('''Valiant''') for last. You can ignore the '''Cactuar''' entirely. A tank to hold the adds becomes preferable here. Even '''Valaineral''' trust can hold the adds long enough for a solid DD or two to skillchain down the '''Consul''', then move to the adds. Just have party leader swap to them for a moment so he gains hate on them all.

'''Easy''':
* Players can just bum rush the '''Bozzetto Consul''' and kill him first so his attack isn't raised, then defeat the adds to clear this Ambuscade. You can ignore the '''Cactuar''' entirely.

'''Very Easy''':
* Players can just bum rush the '''Bozzetto Consul''' and kill him first so his attack isn't raised, then defeat the adds to clear this Ambuscade. You can ignore the '''Cactuar''' entirely.

'''Key Item Suggestions''':
* [[Quicksand Caves]] [[UNM]] warp.
* [[Proto-Waypoint]] warp to [[Quicksand Caves]].
* [[Voidwatch]] warp to [[Quicksand Caves]], enter and run down the ramp.
* [[Western Altepa Desert]] [[UNM]] warp. Go down the ramp into the ruins and follow the caves. Enemies there occasionally spawn high enough.

:*(On Normal) Summons 4x Bozzetto Warder Adds at 90% HP and a second wave at 35% HP.
:*(On Normal) Bozzetto Warders appear to boost the damage of the [[Blood Weapon]]/[[Souleater]] combo to 20k-50k per auto.
:** If the Warders are dead then [[Blood Weapon]]/[[Souleater]] does normal damage.

*{{Icon|COR}} '''COR''': Crooked Chaos, and Monks rolls. DDs wont need to worry about SB beyond TPing in SB II thanks to Monks.
*{{Icon|BRD}} '''BRD''': March, Minuet, Minuet, Madrigal. {{color|wind|Wind Threnody}} the Corse.
*{{Icon|BLU}} '''BLU''': A good Club, and magic accuracy recast set. Set {{color|wind|Feather Tickle}} and {{color|wind|Reaving Wind.}} Advisable to also set Battery Charge and Retinal Glare.
*{{Icon|WHM}} '''WHM''': {{color|wind|Silence}} the Corse. Auspice, Barblind, Dia, and keep Banish effect active.
*{{Icon|PLD}} '''PLD''': Cap block rate with a shield that isn't Ochain, provide Holy Circle.
'''Strategy''':
*1) MNK engages the mob, and gets it down to 90%. Adds then spawn. BLU uses [[Feather Tickle]] and [[Reaving Wind]].
**Do not skillchain past this point as it will heal the mob. So victory smite between the [[Savage Blade]] and [[Black Halo]]s.
*2) Party should all defeat one single Bozetto Warder. This seems to prevent the usage of [[Blood Weapon]]/[[Souleater]] going off and massacring the party. We had an issue with this regularly, and it completely stopped happening from then on.
**PLD should get AoE hate on the Warders with Banishga and then a JA or something of the sort. Despite being ambuscade, enmity is a bit odd with these after initially spawning and they will run around beating people without some intervention.
*3) Party then TPs on the Warders and WSes the Pishogue.
**BLU should [[Black Halo]] as well, but use Feather or Reaving if it is up before WSing.
*4) When the second round of adds spawns around 35%, defeat one just to be safe, and then continue until the fight ends.

*[[Wind Threnody]] will likely affect the success rate of Reaving Feathers. Magic accuracy food isn't required at all when it is on for a well geared BLU, but you will resist regularly without either active.
**This is with Maxentius and Thibron as a ML 30+ BLU. So that should put you in the ballpark for how to anchor your magic accuracy requirements. If you need to, [[Sakpata's Sword]] is a solid choice to offhand to solve any issues.

The fight should take around 5.5 to 9 or so minutes (including buffing) depending on the group.

*'''MNK''' 4 Step SC's, Be prepared to turn to wait for BLU and SMN to pull down the TP of the Corse. Try to not It push under 38%-/+ so Bloody Weapon is not active at the time of the pops of the second set of Skeletons. Once both sets of skeletons are done it is just managing the TP with the team to victory.
*'''Blu''' Reaving Wind, Feather Tickle Top priority, Carcharian Verve, Help kill the skeletons when popped
*'''GEO''' Attack, Frailty, Help heal, and any other debuff you can land helps.
*'''BRD''' Minuet/Attack/ACC songs Ballads on Mages, Help Heal, and any other debuff you can land help. You can also Magic Finale the ice spikes.
*'''SCH''' Pro/Shell, Regen V, Refresh, Phlanax, Adloquium, Stoneskin Reapply whenever needed, Removed Blinds and stat down effects and Heal
*'''SMN''' Apogee: Ecliptic Howl, Ecliptic Growl, Then Hastaga II, Crystal Blessing. Once engaged Mewing Lullaby in conjunction with Blu's TP down spells, Can use Shock Squall to stun all the skeletons after the initial pop and support with Whispering Wind as the skeletons go down reset yourself up for Mewing Lullaby.

:*When the skeletons pop they have what seems to be a very strong enmity lock on specific party members, so be away you may have to be vigilant with healing on mages until they are eliminated. It isn't hard to manage but you can have bad luck SC/MB on anyone and it lights out. As long as it wasn't during a Bloody Weapon you should be able to recover and still win.

|Easy Strat=
Both AOE and single target charms can be avoided by running out of range as they are cast.

|Very Easy Strat=
Solo: Prepare for AoE nukes and either bring a trust healer that outranges the AoE silence ([[BGWiki:Trusts#Yoran-Oran (UC)|Yoran-Oran]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Apururu|Apururu]]), or uses AoE healing job abilities ([[BGWiki:Trusts#Ingrid II|Ingrid II]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Iroha II|Iroha II]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Arciela|Arciela]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Lilisette |Lilisette I/II]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Selh'teus|Selh'teus]]). Once its HP is below 80% it may start using Hecatomb Macabre which is avoidable. Once you're charmed it will despawn your Trusts, then you have powerful buffs for 3 minutes to try to defeat it.

:*'''Boiling Over''': Gains an aura that grants players a regain effect. Any damage taken by the boss after this move will increase the damage of '''Nether Castigation''', '''Atramentous Libations''' or '''Atramentous Oblation'''
:*'''Miasma''': Boss gains a weak Dread Spikes effect. You have about 5~15 seconds to deal enough damage to Force him to switch modes before he uses '''Eisenschneider'''
:* When the Boss uses '''Charging Up''' It will change its state and the chat log will be accompanied by one of the following Messages:
::* The Boss begins '''charging up'''. (Entering Charging State)
::* The Boss's rage is beginning to '''boil over'''. (Entering Boiling Over State)
::* The Boss begins to emit a noxious '''miasma'''. (Entering Miasma State)
::* The Boss's '''miasma''' dissipates but is rage is beginning to '''boil over'''. (Boiling Over State)
:::* It's worth noting that if you throw 1 too many Weapon Skills to drop the Miasma state you may overcharge the Boiling Over State.

'''Uses the following TP Moves''':
:*'''Charging Up''': Initiates a State Change from '''Normal''' to '''Charging Up''', '''Boiling Over''' or '''Miasma'''.
:*'''Atramentous Libations''': 20' AoE Drain . Damage may vary depending on damage received during the "Charging Up State".
::*This is a similar mechanic to [[Glassy Thinker]]'s "Pain Sync".
:*'''Atramentous Oblation''': Dispels (possible Abosrbs?) 1 Buff (20' AoE), Damage may vary depending on damage received during the "Charging Up State".
:*'''Nether Castigation''': 20' AoE damage; amount of damage based on damage received after "Boiling Over state".
:*'''Eisenschneider''' :30' K.O Ability. Requires Boss to be in "Miasma state"
::*Bonuses like [[Migawari: Ichi]] will not stop this from inflicting KO.
::*Players may use /heal in order to convert this move to damage instead.
:*'''Infernal Bulwark''': Stoneskin (can be dispelled)
:*'''Noahionto''' : Inflicts significant AoE {{dark}} dark damage based off of the damage the enemy has received. Used at low HP % (<5% HP on Normal)
:*'''Dread Spikes''': Casts AoE Dread Spikes at low HP.
|Notes=
'''Bozzetto Charger''':
*Absorbs damage while readying TP moves.
:*Absorbing damage will increase the power of the Charger's '''Scintillant Lance'''.
*Uses the following TP Moves:
:*'''Scintillant Lance''': 20' Conal {{magical}} {{light}} damage.
:*'''Grace of Hera''': Restores HP and removes status ailments; can be forced by using about 4 or more debuffs

|Very Difficult Strat=
Tank DD BRD/WHM + 3 (SMN or BST or any form of non-pet DD)
:* Tank MUST pull to zone-in spot!
:* The tanks holds both the boss and charger; DD focuses on charger. During this time BRD should just use songs that help DD produce fast/high damage. DD should avoid healing the charger during TP moves (i.e. do not WS during charger's TP moves). BRD should Elegy, Dia II, Threnody, and Requiem -- this will force Grace of Hera as opposed to damage TP moves
:* During boss phase, DD should stop all WS damage if they see the "charging" message. If you bring lots of DD, it may be a good idea to pull all but one DD off the boss and use white damage to push the boss into '''Atramentous Libations.''' Once this TP move is used, all DD can continue to dish out damage. BRD should always maintain Hymnus on all DDs and the tank when charging/boil/miasma messages appear.
:* Upon seeing the "boiling" message, all damage must stop immediately. Use Dia at maximum casting distance to push the boss into a TP move ('''Nether Castigation'''). Once this TP move is used, return to regular attack mode and continue to watch out for any charging/boiling/miasma messages.
:* If the "miasma" message appears, everyone should dump TP / use SC's to dish out high damage and force the boss back into boiling mode (might need to set TP order to prevent damage overspill into "boiling" phase). Once TP is dumped, everyone run far away. Basically, if the tank is holding near the zone-in location, then anywhere BEHIND farthest pillar is safe. If the tank dies, immediately put Hymnus back on and let the tank get hate before continuing damage or healing. There is a fairly long delay between the "miasma" message and K.O. move (if it does go off) so only the tank is ever really in danger of dieing.
:* BRD should always keep Ballad III, and Hymnus on the tank since boss will Aspir (up to Aspir III). No healer is really needed aside from Curaga II from BRD if DDs get hit with AOE.
:* As the boss gets lower in HP, it will often start "charging" and immediately switch to "boiling" rather frequently. Watch those trigger-happy WS fingers! It will also cast '''Death Spikes''' on a very regular basis, so make sure DDs turn and dispel/finale the spikes.
:* The boss can cast other spells (both single and aoe form) such as Stun and Bio.

|Difficult Strat=

|Normal Strat=
Tank (not required), 2 DDs, 1 BRD/WHM
:* Buff DPS with Haste Songs and any additional Attack songs you can get
:* Buff tank with Haste Songs and Ballad
:* Buff BRD with either your highest Ballad or multiple Ballads if possible
:* Your Bard and Tank should be able to heal the group assuming you don't get floored from Weapon Skilling at the wrong time
:* Doesn't really matter where the boss is fought though the starting corner is as good a place as any.
:* Focus the Horse first. If he readies a TP move wait till he throws out his next Auto-Attack before resuming damage. If you want you can save your TP for right after he uses a TP move and throws his 1st Auto. That is a pretty safe window.
:* When fighting the Dullahan you'll want to have the tank face them towards a wall to minimize knock back. The tank needs ballad to avoid running out of MP. The Boss' Aspir spells will drain out the MP otherwise.
:* DPS can ideally setup a skillchain and goto town until a Charging Up is used.
::* Once he charges up turn around.
:::* If its Miasma continue Damage and have each DPS (1 at a Time) use a Weaponskill to force him to switch to Boil Over
:::* If its anything else back off to 20' and have the tank just Auto-Attack the boss till it uses its TP move
:* BRD/WHM should be healing from as far back as possible (Max Heal distance to target is 21.5')
:* Notes: If you don't have a tank then during Charge Ups that are not miasma the BRD/WHM can just spam Dia while the DPS have their back turned.
:* Notes: The Benefit of this 3/4-man strat is you have room for a few extra jobs to pad things out. Bring a Healer or another Buffer. I'd caution against stacking too many DPS as there is more mishaps that can go wrong with more DPS. That being said technically if all DPS are paying attention the fight should go quicker.
:* Notes: You can scale this up to Difficult if you are wiping the floor with the moves or scale it down to Easy if your having trouble. Mechanics don't change just the mobs stats do.
:* Strategy is from the 2024-10-12 iteration of this fight.

|Very Difficult Strat=
PLD (with Reforged Relic +2/3), BRD/BLM, SCH (or WHM), COR x3.
The name of the game is [[Quick Draw|Earth Shot]] and [[Savage Blade]]. Rolls are [[Warlock's Roll|Warlock]], [[Wizard's Roll|Wizard's]], [[Fighter's Roll|Fighter's]], [[Chaos Roll|Chaos]], [[Samurai Roll|Samurai]] and [[Tactician's Roll|Tactician's]]. Scholar should throw in Regain, Barthunder and [[Sandstorm]]. When ready, Paladin goes in and [[Shield Bash]]es [[Ramuh]] to knock off Shock Spikes. Unload into Ramuh with blades and earth shot as he becomes more deadly and TP move happy as his health decreases. Once he's fallen, the Doppleganger will appear with a free avatar in one of the four corners. One Corsair should [[Random Deal]] at this moment, while the Bard needs to run up and [[Elemental Seal]] [[Lullaby]] to remove him from the picture temporarily. The avatar should be dealt with immediately, then a coordinated set of Earth Shots vs. the Doppleganger should put him down ending the fight. If you don't move fast enough from the first Earth Shot to their demise, they will Astral Flow and pull out either [[Odin]] or [[Alexander]], the former will one-shot anyone not healing, the second extends the fight possibly allowing more avatars to appear and making victory impossible.

If [[Shiva]] shows up at any time, reset the fight.

Alternatively, bring a BLU with Absolute Terror. Have them use it on the Summoner right before you wake him up. Assuming your DPS are decently geared he'll die before he can do anything at all.

|Difficult Strat=

|Normal Strat=
DPS (Ambu +2 gear is fine, Pulse or better weapon preferred), Yoran-Oran, BLU (For Osmosis) 
The fight starts off vs [[Bozzetto Ramuh]] who casts [[Lightning Armor]] (Shock Spikes) on himself. This is fairly potent. Make sure you have decent Magic Evasion or a way to dispel these or your gonna have a long fight ahead of you. BLU Osmosis seemed to work. Remove the spikes and goto Town on [[Bozzetto Ramuh]]. At some point he'll SP (which I'm assuming is akin to [[Astral Conduit]] he will spam [[Volt Strike]] which stuns for a bit. He may Sprinkle in some [[Stunga]]s or a [[Thunderspark]]'s. The latter of those is only single Target so only 1 person will end up getting paralyzed.

After you dealt with [[Bozzetto Ramuh]] the [[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] Summoner will spawn and summon up 3 avatars over time. If you have enough DPS you can kill each one one at a time. If not you may end up with Wrangling 2-3 mobs at a time. Upon Summoning the last Avatar the [[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] will join the fight as well.

With it's 3 WS's he will form some Skillchains which can drop a DPS or healer into Low HP fairly quickly. At some point he will summon [[Alexander]] or [[Odin]] after he [[Astral Flow]]s. [[Alexander]] Will lengthen the fight with [[Perfect Defense]] where the [[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] will take reduced damage (most hits are reduced down to 1-2 damage some WS's hit for 100). [[Odin]] will use [[Zantetsuken]] which you can /heal through if you disengauge. There are accounts of being able to outrun its range though I have not tried this as resting is far easier. After the
[[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] and all summoned Avatars are dead the fight ends.
 
|Easy Strat=
Soloable with Trusts and Ambuscade NQ gear. Avoid Trust BLMs or ones that favor Light-based skillchains which may heal the avatars. 
Similar to harder difficulties.
[[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] Summoned 1 elemental avatar, and immediately joined the fight. Summoned [[Alexander]] later in the fight.

:*'''Glacial Bellow''' - (Conal) {{magical}} {{ice}} damage, weapon removal, {{color|fire|encumbrance}}, and {{color|thunder|stun}}.
::*Given the usage of [[Barfira]] for Muzzling Wallop, players will tend to resist the weapon removal and encumbrance.

::*This move is capable of hitting 99,999 damage to the primary target.
:::*Mercurial Strike '''can and will''' hit for capped damage if performed during a skillchain window (Magic Bursted). If you can stop or mitigate the Bozzetto Enceloados from creating/closing a skillchain, Mercurial Strike will not Magic Burst, therefore hitting for "normal" damage.
:*'''Muzzling Wallop''' - (AoE) {{magical}} {{fire}} damage, knockback, reduces MP by ~x5s the damage dealt, and inflicts silence for a few seconds.
::*This may be mitigated by reducing the damage via [[Stoneskin]], [[Diffusion]]ed [[Magic Barrier]], [[Barfire]], and [[Valiance]]d [[Unda]] runes.

Notes: Using a NIN as one of your DPS is huge but not required. They have access to Blade: Teki a Hybrid Water WS. It should work wonders here. Try to work that into a skillchain if you have a NIN in the group.

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''':
DD, DD, {{Icon|PUP|small}} PUP, {{Icon|COR|small}} COR,{{Icon|BRD|small}} BRD, {{Icon|WHM|small}} WHM

'''Buffs''': 
'''WHM''': Barpara, Barblizzard, Regen IVga, and standard buffs otherwise.

'''COR''': Chaos and Samurai.

'''BRD''': March X2, Minuet, Madrigal.

'''PUP''': Sub WAR and use a standard Valoredge frame setup with strobe and flashbulb, optic fibers, repair kit, and other standard flare. The puppet is not in any danger ever. Master wears no pet oriented gear.

'''Strategy''': 

PUP sends the automaton after the Ravager (WAR) to hold it and start the fight. They then immediately provoke the Deathbringer (DRK) and separate it to remove the aura. I favored using a few counter pieces such as Mpaca body, Bathy Choker R15, and Cryptic earring over a offense oriented DT set. As the Deathbringer rapidly attacks with low damage club and you can counter them up as a PUP. The PUP shouldn't be in any danger of dying with Regen on as the Deathbringer has weak attacks. 
The PUP should then solo multistep SC. I'm partial to String Pummel to Howling Fist to double Victory Smite for lights.

The rest of the party goes after the Don. Then the Incanter, which doesn't need to be slept as it just wakes up. Then the Ravager. Unless there are some unlucky stuns or paralyze procs then the PUP should be able to finish or nearly finish their Deathbringer.

The WHM should stand out of range of AoE range of and to die from the Baby Bomber once or twice as the Don rapidly eats the floor. Keep reraise on and get back up.

That's it. Simple month. Rinse and repeat.
-----
Lionheart RUN x2, COR/WAR, GEO/WHM, BRD/WHM, WHM or g

Buffs: March x2, madrigal x2, Chaos/Sam. Fury/frailty on RUN 1, entrust frailty on RUN 2.

1) RUN 1 goes in and pull Don to starting corner, RUN 2 pulls Ravager to far left corner. COR provoke pulls Deathbringer to far right corner. BRD sleeps Incanter. WHM or RDM cast reraise, silence Don then position themselves in the middle of battle field, away from the other members. Geo entrust frailty on RUN 2 after everyone position themselves.

2) RUN 1 and RUN 2 use battuta and zerg Don and Ravager. COR holds Deathbringer, WS with Savage Blade and cures himself with sangine blade. BRD move between the battlefield and cast stona, paralyna and blindna on RUN 2 and COR. GEO baby sits RUN 1 with cures, blindna and paralyna.

3) If bomb kills WHM or RDM, they must get up immediately and cast Reraise or Goddess's Hymnus on them again.

4) After Don and Ravager is dead, RUNs kill Deathbringer next and Incanter last.

Note: Clear time with setup above is about 4.5 min to 5 depending on buffs and support. RUN 2 can be replaced with a PLD, RUN 1 can be replaced with another DD using entrust Wilt, COR can be replaced with any DD with hate tool and PDT- set.
-----
DD, DD, {{Icon|RDM|small}} RDM, {{Icon|COR|small}} COR,{{Icon|BRD|small}} BRD, {{Icon|WHM|small}} WHM

'''Buffs''': 

'''RDM''': Haste II, Phalanx II, standard RDM stuff.

'''COR''': Crooked Cards Chaos Roll / Samurai Roll.

'''BRD''': Honor or Victory March / Minuet V / Minuet IV / Madrigal

'''WHM''': Barparalyzra / Barblizzara / Boost-Str / Regen IV-ga / Auspice

'''Strategy''': 
The Warrior and Dark Knight Goblins can be bound without aggroing the Don and Incanter. To do this, stand at maximum casting distance (typically hugging the wall) when casting Bind. As Red Mage, be certain you are using [[Spontaneity]] and [[Saboteur]] with Bind. Once one is successfully bound, move around the front without aggroing the Goblins to Bind the other. The group may then pull the Don and Incanter to the entrance.

Bard can Lullaby the Incanter while the rest of the group murders the Don. Dispel from [[Finale]] or [[Dark Shot]] is a must to remove the Don's [[Ice Spikes]]. [[Silence]] on the Don can help reduce its threat during SP. With proper DPS output, a group can kill the Don before the Furious Bozzetto Bomber spawns. The White Mage should still stand away from the group in case you are not fast enough.

Once the Don is dead, move on to the Incanter. If your Red Mage has properly controlled the Warrior and Dark Knights, they should still be bound. Incanter will melt. You can then choose either of the two remaining Goblins to gang up on. Once the third is dead, finish off the last one.

If your Red Mage fails to Bind the first Goblin without aggroing everything, all is not lost. Do not panic. Bring the Goblins to whichever is Bound so the Red Mage can Bind the second one with its brother. You can then continue the strategy above without any issues.

-----

'''Difficult and lower''':

TANK X2, BRD/WHM, WHM/BLM, DD X2

So long as the goblins are separated (removes aura), the tanks will hardly take damage when using -DT gear. Some Regen on the tanks before starting will but is not necessary (bring along Remedies, though). Each tank pulls the ravager and deathbringer to the wall near their respective spawning positions. The DDs should target the Don and provoke. WHM should ES Silence (although silence can land after ~3 attempts without ES). You may choose to not engage until the Don's spikes have been Finale'd but a good WHM (with helping BRD) should be able to keep paralyze off until the spikes are removed. This month seems to favor heavy-armor DDs but any well-geared pair of DDs should be able to take out the Don before silence wears off. WHM, BRD, and two DDs should form a square around the Don to prevent conal damage from hitting everyone. As soon as a bomber is spawned, WHM should be ready to Curaga IV (or higher). Solace, -DT gear, and SS all help.

Once the Don is dead, the party should then take down each add (fights should be very straightforward hereon out).

Tanks do not have to be PLD or RUN; in fact any DD with /RDM sub and phalanx on should be able to hold the two side goblins.
-----
Solo Red Mage Strategy for Difficult:

As of the April 2023 version of this fight, it is completely soloable (with trusts) by Red Mage.

Job: Red Mage / Ninja. This was done at Master Level 24.

Weapons: Naegling / Thibron

Trusts: Joachim, Ulmia, Monberaux (I did not pay him), Selh'teus, Qultada

Buffs: Haste 2, Phalanx, En-Whatever-Day-It-Is, Aquaveil, Temper 2, Refresh 3, Barblizzard, Barparalyze, Stoneskin, Blink, Gain-STR, Protect/Shell V. I did not buff any of the trusts. Ate Grape Daifuku.

After buffing, Spontaneity and Saboteur. Bind the rightmost Goblin from max distance. You should not aggro the others. If you do, it's fine, simply Bind the other Goblin and pull the Don away. Silence immediately, then Distract 3 and Dia 3. Press Savage Blade every time you have 1000+ TP. Position yourself within all of your trusts to soak the split damage from the Furious Bomber. Ideally Selh'teus will Rejuvenation, but you may need to help spot heal. You have 30 seconds between bombs to deal damage. The third bomb will be the Baby Bomber, just run away from it. Repeat the process, re-positioning after each Baby Bomber as needed. If Bind wears off the other Goblins, stop to re-apply. Once the Don is dead, pull whichever Goblin has the shorter remaining Bind duration and Dia 3, Distract 3, and kill it. Repeat with the final Goblin.

This strategy requires that you be very well-geared. TP set consisted of Malignance and R30 Bunzi pieces. Savage Blade set consisted of R25 Nyame and Empyrean +3.
-----
Solo RDM/NIN strategy for all difficulties:

You will need some "Enfeebling magic effect+" equipment for this strategy. This was tested to work with as little as +13% ([[Duelist's Torque +1]], [[Uk'uxkaj Boots]]) on VE.

1. Buff and summon trusts, taking care to use trusts who will stay in range (to avoid death from the Furious Bomber). For example, consider using [[Mihli Aliapoh]]/[[Kupipi]] instead of [[Cipher: Ygnas|Ygnas]]/[[Apururu (UC)]] as your healer.

2. Walk along the right wall until you reach casting range of the Bozetto Deathbringer. Activate [[Saboteur]].

3. [[Silence]] the Bozetto Deathbringer, then aggro the goblins. Bring the goblins back to the wall.

4. Activate [[Spontaneity]]. Cast [[Gravity II]] on both the Bozetto Deathbringer and Bozetto Ravager.

5. Begin making your way to the opposite corner of the arena by hugging the left/back walls, bringing the Don (and Incanter on VD) with you to the corner.

6. Once you've reached the corner, Silence the Don (and Incanter on VD), then begin killing. If you were quick, you might still have Saboteur up to extend the Silence durations.

By applying a heavy Gravity to the adds and running sufficiently far away, they will eventually (in 30-40 seconds) completely deaggro and return to their starting locations. Silencing the Deathbringer is required because he will not deaggro if he can still cast on you, regardless of whether he's out of casting range. This may also work with [[Bind]], but due to Bind's highly unreliable duration, Gravity is preferred.

Once the Don and Incanter are dealt with, you can pick off the Deathbringer/Ravager individually at your leisure.

*<s>Keep HP of both mobs at similar percentages to avoid typical Iron Giant TP moves. Instead, they will spam Cyclone Turbine (aoe dispel + damage).</s> This was an old strategy that is no longer as reliable as of the Nov 2022 Patch that limits physical and magical damage to 33% for both Giants when both are active. Creating a 15% HP difference between both Giants will deactivate one. Upon deactivation all damage dealt is reduced to 0 and is given a regen effect.
*When Blazenought is deactivated, Frostnought takes 300% physical damage taken, up to 600% after "the magical energies dissipate" message appears.
*When Frostnought is deactivated, Blazenought takes 300% magical damage taken, up to 600% after "the magical energies dissipate" message appears.
*'''The giants use the following TP moves:'''
**When both giants are active:
***Cyclone Turbine: Area of effect damage, dispel's 3 buffs, <20 range
**Blazenought only
***Big Seismic Impact: AoE Slow, Terrorize, high damage, hate reset
***Fire Arm Cannon: AoE fire damage, Max HP/Max MP down
***Eradicator: AoE damage, weakness, <20 range
**Frostnought only
***Ice Incinerator: Conal fire damage, burn
***Scapula Beam: AoE damage, all stats down
***Ballistic Double Kick: Conal damage, hate reset, Encumbrance

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''': Ranged Setup: RUN, COR, COR, BRD, WHM, GEO.

Two shooty boys, one doing Last Stand on Frostnought and the other doing Leaden Salute on Blazenought. (Which is weird because the attempt prior, the magic and physical resists of both were reversed?)

Keeping them similar HP negated ALL of the mechanics. The two only spammed Cyclone Turbine the entire time. No Eradicator. No chat messages. No two-hours. No blizzaga. No invulnerable. No regens. Nothing.

Cyclone Turbine over and over. Despite the RUN being buffless the entire time, it was pretty non-threatening.

The problem? It took 15 minutes and our COR's are geared to the teeth with full REMA buffs from the BRD and GEO.

If the intended method of doing this is keep them close in HP, then that leads to unending Dispel spam, then melee is absolutely not an option. Even in full m.eva gear, it would be a matter of seconds before you lose every buff you have.

|Very Difficult Strat=

Tested last night with this setup, 6 minute clears
Setup: PLD/BLU RNG/WAR RNG/WAR COR/RNG BRD/RDM WHM/SCH

Buffs:
COR: SAM / Chaos
BRD: Honor March / Archer Prelude / Minuet x2
WHM: Barstonra / Barpetra

Strategy:
Party move 20+ from start and always stay 20.1+ from all three. PLD pulls them to start and faces them to party.

PLD turns away on: Stone Dance, Petrifaction, Boulder Dance, and Raqs Baladi Dance.
Kill order: Freyja > Skathi > Frigg
Dia II followed up with light shot x2
Just before Freyja goes down PLD uses Fealty.

*'''Alternate Setup''': Tank, CORx2 (or COR, RNG), BRD/WHM, WHM, PUP

Samurai / Chaos rolls, and Tactician / Hunter if using second COR. Honor March, Minuet x2, Archer's Prelude (or second Minuet if CORx2 and only 3 songs available). Scherzo on tank.

PUP tanks Frigg far away while tank pulls to where party zones in. Tank turns during gaze moves, and faces Freyja and Skathi during any Disregard moves. BRD prioritizes Poisona if tank misses turning or facing a special move while WHM prioritizes Stona. Kill Freyja, then Skathi, and finally Frigg (let the puppet tank Frigg). As long as no one casts a debuff directly on Freyja (causing Draw-in), and the tank can at least avoid Doom (face target during Imparing Disregard), this should be a very easy battle.

|Very Difficult Strat=

Setup: PLD/RUN DDx2 BRD/COR RDM WHM
:* Tank, DD, and RDM should sub NIN
:* Tank should run in and establish aggro then drag all 6 Mamool to a wall
:* Designate one DD as the target selector and have the other DD /assist
:* RDM should keep up addle 2 on current target as it removes their ability to instantly cast spells
:* When the current target uses manafont (as early as 80%), RDM silences immediately
:** After silence, Mamool will focus enmity on RDM and use [[Hurl Anathema]], applying [[Mute]], [[Slow]], [[Paralyze]], and [[Virus]]. Keep shadows up to avoid TP attacks. Gravity 2 may alleviate this issue.
:* WHM should keep up the appropriate barspell for the target being fought and reapply shell if dispelled by TP move Ward Breach
:**Order of Mamool Ja's elements is: (Back Row): Water, Wind, Earth. (Front Row): Fire, Ice, Thunder.
:* In Very Difficult only, when a Sextuple Razool Ja is killed, other Sextuple Razool Jas under the effect of Sleep will awaken 33% of the time.
:* If a target is killed with no staff, the remaining Mamool Ja will gain a stacking physical damage up buff indicated by the text 'The warrior's prowess flows through you.'.
:*If a target is killed while still holding its staff (or roughly 1s after using Hurl Anathema), the remaining Mamool Ja will gain a stacking magical damage up indicated by the text 'The sage's prowess flows through you.'
:* Tank, DD, and RDM must keep shadows up to avoid TP attacks after staff is thrown as many of the attacks are potentially lethal after 3-4 staffless targets are killed.

::Note1: Each target can absorb a specific element. i.e., do not create a light skill chain on the fire, lightning, and wind Mamool
::Note2: Recommended to silence first 4 Mamool and leave the other 2 unsilenced to reduce risk of death from TP attacks. Paralyze and addle 2 make the spell casters relatively harmless.
::Note3: Silencing a Mamool Ja before it has used [[Manafont]] can cause it to use [[Mijin Gakure]] for high damage.
::Note4: RDM alternatively should sub SCH to [[Manifestation]] + [[Sleep II]], and use Blink to avoid [[Hurl Anathema]]

|Difficult Strat=

|Easy Strat= Solo NIN with trusts of WHMx2, AATT, BRD, RDM. AATT can keep them slept for a small while at least. Then just skillchain to death avoiding element they absorb while keeping shadows up. Mijin Gakure will cause issues if they decide to use so I tried to get a good skillchain off when a mob is low on health.

** WHM needs to have continuous Poison until BLM is dead to counter Sleepga. Afflatus Solace helps for adds phase, but Misery could arguably be better for the boss to prevent TP/MP loss from Plague
** BRD should stay well away from PT during boss phase in case of Mijin so that they can RR and quickly horde the boss for recovery.
** Use Dark and Light skillchains to remove auras (use appropriate SC based on aura color).
*** If gear is too high level to remove auras without killing the mob, use 1 dmg weapons and do not weaponskill. You can proc to remove the aura with critical hits (even if they do 0 damage) and then swap weapons to kill when the aura is down.
** When the PLD mamool uses Invincible, hate can go crazy (most likely to go after BRD due to entrance buffs and horde) so use PDT set. PLD should stay put, while hate target should move into position for Cover.
** Do not cast on the boss when it is awake; feel free to cast if he is slept. (Not sure if this applies to BRD songs aside from Horde.) Before fighting the boss, sleep it and Finale it completely before engaging. Use appropriate Light/Dark SC based on aura as soon as he begins casting elemental wheel spells. If boss uses Mijin, BRD should RR and immediately Horde while WHM raises PT.

*Summons 1-4 '''Bozzetto Urchins''' throughout the fight.
:*'''Bozzetto Urchins''' roam the arena invisible, any Warble move summons them to appear and fight.
:*Urchins may be slept with Lullaby, but wake up every time the '''Breadwinner''' uses a Warble move.
:*Urchins will use Hundred Fists and Souleater.
:*Urchins are strong, but have low HP.
::*A good couple of weapon skills or a skillchain should be enough to take one out.

*If {{color|wind|silenced}}, the Breadwinner's range on any '''Warble''' will be reduced, thus calling in less, if any Urchins at all.
:*A WHM or GEO with [[Magic Accuracy Food|magic accuracy food]]/equipment is suggested for landing {{color|wind|silence}}.

'''Uses the following moves''':
*'''{{icon|SP}} Hundred Fists''': Used once at 50% health. Lasts 45 seconds.
:*'''Gale Spikes''': Become active during Hundred Fists. Reflects damage dealt and inflicts a potent Slow effect on any player who physically strikes the Breadwinner. The Slow effect is strong enough to overwite Haste II.
*'''Thrashing Assault''': {{physical}} 4-hit damage and Defense Down. Absorbed by 4 shadows.
*'''Drill Claw''': {{physical}} Damage, Max HP Down (-75%), and Max TP Down.
*'''Fire Meeble Warble''': AoE {{fire}} {{magical}} Damage, {{color|fire|Plague}} (-50 MP and -300 TP/tic), and {{color|fire|Burn}} (-50 HP/tic).
*'''Blizzard Meeble Warble''': AoE {{ice}} {{magical}} Damage, {{color|ice|Paralysis}}, and {{color|ice|Frost}} (-50 HP/tic).
*'''Aero Meeble Warble''': AoE {{wind}} {{magical}} Damage, {{color|wind|Silence}}, and {{color|wind|Choke}} (-50 HP/tic).
*'''Stone Meeble Warble''': AoE {{earth}} {{magical}} Damage, {{color|earth|Petrification}}, and {{color|earth|Rasp}} (-50 HP/tic).
*'''Thunder Meeble Warble''': AoE {{thunder}} {{magical}}, Stunning them and inflicting Shock (-50 HP/tic).
*'''Water Meeble Warble''': AoE {{water}} {{magical}} Damage, {{color|water|poison}}, and {{color|water|Drown}} (-50 HP/tic).
:*Any [[Barspell]] of the corresponding element will negate the damage and status effects of the Warbles.

|Notes=
*At some point in the battle, '''Bozetto Housemaker''' will run out from it's corner/edge, TP move the party, and run back (usually well below 50% on '''Bozzetto Breadwinner''')
:*Uses '''Earthshaker''', which deals 1000 damage per player hit by it (this includes pets, trusts, and luopans).
::*Ignores Damage Mitigation. Has a significant charge time so possible for everyone to escape its AoE. Also has an additional effect of paralyze (very potent).
:*Once the Housemaker comes out, it will continue to run back in at semi-regular intervals to use the same move. Speculated to be triggered based on time elapsed. {{Verification}}
:*'''Bozzetto Housemaker''' will always target whoever has the most "hate" from casting AoE Barspells. Have one person be dedicated to using Barspells on the party (best if done by support job using /WHM and not the main healer). Make sure to have someone else use Paralyna on this person because the paralyze effect is very potent.
*'''Bozzetto Urchins''' may be slept, but will wake up every time any ''Warble'' is used by the '''Bozzetto Breadwinner'''.
|Very Difficult Strat=
WHM/SCH, BRD, GEO (Idris), RUN/SAM, DDx2
*BRD Buffs, depending on what they have, honor and advancing march, mad x2.
*GEO uses Frailty and torpor depending on the DDs acc. Better to go with fury and two mads than torpor and min x1. Entrust wilt.
*RUN tanks and DDs, save battuta for the fisting.
:*If your RUN is not putting out damage then you should likely do D instead of VD.
:*A buffed and geared [[Epeolatry]] RUN should have little trouble doing 20k+ Resolutions.
*DDs fight. SCing is cool, but it is also fine to just go nuts and not care.
*WHM or GEO should keep the mob {{color|green|silenced}}. This is important to limit any adds.
*If not switching bar spells depending on monster ability keep barstonra up to block petrify from landing.
** Esuna or more conveniently Yagrush the debuffs off.
*The WHM needs to run if/when the Housekeeper runs at them. Damage from it's TP move is 1k per player in range.
**The target can't outrange it, but you can prevent it from hitting anyone else.
*Fight with well geared players should take ~4-6 minutes.

|Difficult Strat=
WHM/RDM, BRD/WHM, GEO/WHM, PLD/WAR, DD X2
* BRD uses Nightingale/Troubadour: March, Minuet X2, Madrigal for melees and Ballad X3 for mages at the start of the battle
** Once the battle begins, BRD's duty switches to Barspell duty.
** When Housekeeper comes, BRD runs away from the group.
* WHM should use Afflatus Misery and Esuna if Warble happens to land. Erase to remove HP-down from Drill Claw
* GEO should help w/ Erase and cures after GEO spells are done. Paralyna on BRD after Earthshaker? goes off. Good M.Acc set needed to silence the Breadwinner.
* Fight near the starting location; everyone should be in range of barspells.
* Only one person should focus on barspells so that your party knows who the Housekeeper will target.
* If Urchins pop, kill them fast; BRD should obviously sleep them.
* Sub-duties for BRD and GEO can be swapped if one person happens to be more capable of catching the Warble move better than the other.

|Notes=
'''Bozzetto Steward''':
:*has extremely potent Dia and elemental(?) DoT
:*Does not move
:*Will despawn over time (approx 1 minute)

'''Moogle''':
:*Does not move on Normal and lower difficulty; will roam on Difficult and Very Difficult
:*Provides an aura that will counter-act the Voyager Moogle's aura but also gives amnesia; aura only activated when boss uses SP
|Very Difficult Strat=
Setup: '''SMN x3, GEO, THF/PLD, RDM'''

Strategy:
*RDM gives Protect & Shell to the THF.
*GEO uses Bolster and Entrusts Indi-Languor on THF, Indi-Frailty on themselves and will use Geo-Torpor once the boss moogle is in position.
*SMN's have Ramuh's out and ready.
*THF will run in, Perfect Dodge, Flash & Sentinel. Moogles will move, if they remain close to the boss moogle in the center, then the THF will need to bring the boss moogle away from the helpers.
*RDM will Stymie Silence & Dia 3 then cast cures as needed.
*SMN will Astral Flow/Astral Conduit right out the gate at 100% HP once the RDM has debuffed. This is the only real way you can kill him if he uses Benediction as his first 1-hour, and even then it's not guaranteed.
*At 85% HP, THF will Larceny once the 1-hour animation goes off on the boss moogle unless it's Benediction. If it's Benediction, THF will need to Larceny if he uses Perfect Dodge, but you will most likely wipe unless your SMN's are stacked and can kill it before the aura becomes active and tick's twice. If the second 1-hour is Benediction, it's a wipe.

Alternate Strategy (not luck-based):
* '''PLD, BRD/WHM, COR X2, RNG (or COR), WHM'''
* Rolls: Hunter's and Monk's (for Subtle Blow), Samurai's and Chaos
* Barsilencera and Auspice (along with Subtle Blow will help reduce the chances of Invite Over)
* If the boss uses Invite Over, PLD should move a few steps away to avoid the spawn's aura.
* Boss uses SP at 85%, 65%, 45%, 25%, and 10% HP. Reduce boss HP down to 88%, 68%, etc. and stop all damage. Then look for a nearby moogle. Wait until that moogle starts moving and then drop the boss HP down to the trigger level. The idea is to make it to the safety moogles right as they are about to stop. (If the boss has an SP aura up and the moogle starts moving, there is a good chance death). No damage during this waiting phase so as to avoid AoE damage and Invite Over. Spam Curaga IV and Curaga V (WHM needs Eber's Pantaloons +1) to ensure that no one dies if the boss happens to use an AoE spell or ability that everyone can still survive. Using any type of bind effect on the moogle can be helpful.
* Save Rampart and Sacrosanctity for Chainspell; spam Finale to prevent the boss from self-curing.
* If anyone dies, stop damage just before the next SP trigger level and wait out the weakness before forcing the SP move on the boss. Do NOT get up near a steward or when an aura is out -- wait until nearby stewards despawn and/or SP auras to drop.
* This method is a sure way to win (unlike the SMN burn method) and does not require the use of SPs. Moreover, it is very easy on support jobs since only the PLD is ever in range of more dangerous moves such as Crys. Flare (high damage to non-tanks even with Shell V), Washtub and Atra. Lib. (stun/terrorize) followed by SP aura.
|Difficult Strat=
'''Tips:'''
*For D+ the regen moogles will roam around and not stay stationary.
*Boss will 2-hour at 85%, 65%, 45%, 25%, and 10% hp.
:*It helps to DPS during the periods the boss has not used 2-hour and you do not have amnesia.
*When boss uses 2-hour everyone should run to either regen moogle and stay close during the whole time amnesia is on.
:*It helps to slow down damage before a trigger point and pull boss close to a regen moogle, just depends how alert everyone in your party is.
*Keep using dispel to remove pro/shell on boss, this keeps boss from curing himself.
*The stewards will randomly spawn around the boss while you are DPSing.
:*Just move a bit away from them when that happens.
*Silence during 2-hour phase helps. D and VD can easily be melee burned.
|Normal Strat=
Solo-able on '''BLU/WAR''' using healer trusts that do not spread out (e.g. Koru-Moru, King of Hearts, Ferrous Coffin, etc).
:*Cherukiki and Apururu are usable as well, but they will require some additional management (by way of disengaging and re-engaging). Cherukiki can cast Silence
:*Required BLU spells include Silent Storm, Subduction, Blank Gaze (or Geist Wall), Magic Fruit, Occultation
:*Pull with Silent Storm and dispel with Blank Gaze (Geist Wall); keep Silence on to avoid Cure VI during Chainspell (can heal around 68k)
:*The gimmick is simple: when the boss uses Invite Over, move your party away from the Steward to avoid the potent DoT aura. When it uses its SP move (any one among those from the starter jobs), the boss itself will have the same aura (visible on the boss itself). At this point, move toward one of the two Moogles who themselves have a beneficial aura that will counteract the aura from the boss. Additionally, the Moogles will have an amnesia aura during this time. Avoid engaging the boss if possible so that it does not gain TP and use Invite Over during its SP (because you will be forced to run to the other Moogle and may possibly die, or your NPCs might die). Use Occultation and Magic Fruit to stay alive. If you need healing from your NPCs, engage to get healed, and then disengage until the boss' aura is down (otherwise they will waste MP trying to Erase and use healing spells to remove aura effects). Try to fight away from the Moogles so you will always have a safe spot during the boss' aura. On Normal, there should only be 4 (?) uses of SP.
:*Re-apply silence when necessary even at the cost of possibly losing one of the Moogles (but do not kill both of them). Best to fight along the outer walls and move in a circle when Stewards are spawned.
:*When/if you are out of MP (including NPCs), use Subduction and run to the opposite side of the arena to rest (or to simply stand still) to allow the NPCs to recover MP/HP.
:*Other NPCs that might work well: Selh'teus and Arciela as they both provide AoE healing; Selh'teus also replenishes MP

|Very Easy Strat=
Solo-able on almost any job. '''Do not kill the Moogles that appear at the start.''' Summon NPCs and fight on top of the Moogle on the right (as viewed when zoning in).

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''':

2023 Edition: MNK WHM BLU GEO BRD RUN

Geo-Malaise / Indi-Acumen, Honor March / Minuet x3, Light Carol I/II RUN, Diffusion Mighty Guard.

Pull everything to the start. Silence the Warlock and the Reaver to prevent Death, Sleepga, and Break. The Hecteyes pet uses annoying AoE debuffs, but will die in one AoE from the BLU. MNK focuses on the Crusader, using Formless Strikes when Invincible goes up. Be sure to WS from behind if the Crusader starts to glow in order to prevent Charm. BLU and GEO AoE everything else down. Entomb, Spectral Floe, Anvil Lightning, and Horde Lullaby to constantly lock down the Orcs. Geist Wall / Dispelga to remove buffs if desired. When only a couple mobs remain, single-target nukes from the BLU will do work. <4min clears if properly performed by a well-geared group.

Big note, the Tamer can use a charm move (Fanatic Dance) if the pet is killed. May want to be careful to kill the Tamer, then kill the pet.

Setup: TANK, BRD, HEALER, DDx3 (or 1 DD replaced by GEO or COR)

Strategy: Usual buffs at the start, with Light Carol and Light Carol II for the tank. On the pull, BRD should Night/Troub Horde Lullaby II the adds. Have the tank pull the the corner where everyone warps in. It is fine to keep the adds slept in the center (so the boss has less of a chance of buffing the adds). One DD has the sole job of attacking the boss from the back, and using a physical weaponskill every time the boss raises his aura. This aura is the start of the charm cycle (2 rounds of Veil of Chaos followed by Manic Dance). To prevent charm, simply remove the aura to reset the boss. The other DD(s) should focus on the adds. It is best to take out the Warlock first (please note that it can and will cast Death). An Elemental Seal'ed Silence should be more than enough to stop the Warlock from casting death. If possible, try to use a skillchain during the add's SP moves as they seem to take extra damage during their SP duration. The Reaver should be handled with care since it can cast Dread Spikes. The BRD should focus on debuffing the adds while waiting on sleep timers. Once the adds wake up and beeline for the tank debuffing can become a major pain because something like spikes buffs might be buried several layers deep. BRD should try to keep double march songs (Tenuto) full time to help with Finale recast timers. After all the adds are killed, go for the boss. The boss appears to use Invincible at fixed HP levels (75/50,25?) -- it is possible to still remove his aura even when weaponskilling for 0 damage; save TP and plan accordingly. (Avoid killing the boss before the adds; otherwise the adds will gain a large damage reduction)

'''Difficult''':

'''Normal''': For soloing, the VE strategy can be used but the fight will be very long. For PT setups, see the VD setup.

'''Easy''':

'''Very Easy''':

For BLU, this is very straightforward. AAEV, Cornelia, Arciela 1, Koru-Moru, and Apururu make a solid team of trusts. When soloing, however, it is best to kill the boss first. Sleep the adds with Dream Flower during the pull. Avoid using Aggressor, Warcry, and Berserk when attacking the boss so that AAEV can maintain hate (and never be charmed). Use Sudden Lunge when the boss uses Invincible. Once the boss is dead, the threat of charm is over. Attack the Warlock next and use Sudden Lunge during its SP or during spells. After the Warlock is dead, the only thing to worry about is the Pugilist using 100-fists. Simply Sudden Lunge to stun, disengage and sleep with Dream Flower. Your NPCs will auto-regen/refresh during this downtime. After about 30 seconds have passed, finish the Pugilist off for the win.

**'''Dead Eye''' - Conal defense and magic defense down.
**Also uses '''HP Theft''', '''MP Theft''', and '''TP Theft''', which causes whomever is hit by it to lose half of their max HP, MP, or TP.
**'''Steal Attribute''' - Inflicts a single massive random stat down on the target which will leave them at -100.
**'''Steal Ability''' - Resets one ability at random.
**'''Steal Support''' - After leveling up, will remove all rolls and songs from target.
*Scoundrels will randomly use [[Perfect Dodge]] and like to spam '''Faze''' while running around. Mages should have their backs turned.
|Very Difficult Strat=

|Very Difficult Strat=
:DD,DD,DD,RDM/SCH,BLU,WHM
*BLU Diffusion + Mighty Guard just before engaging (for party haste).
*RDM uses [[Saboteur]] + [[Manifestation]] + [[Sleep II]] and casts on the leader to open the fight. Dia + Distract kill targets.
*DDs go to town on the Pilferer.
*DDs should defeat any bombs before they go off.
*RDM or WHM can pull/wake subsequent targets with dia and bring them over to the DDs.

|Difficult Strat=
:Tank, RDM/blm, WHM, BLU x2, DD x1
::-or-
:RDM, WHM, BLU x2, DDx2
*BLU are required so that DDs are able to cap delay. DDs should have no accuracy issues when food or distract are on.
*RDM uses [[Saboteur]] and [[sleepga]]s to aggro.
*DDs go to town on the Pilferer and the RDM debuffs.
**DDs should defeat any bombs before they go off.
*Have the RDM and WHM turn their backs to avoid terror from adds waking up and spamming faze. That is about it.
*Finish with the Scoundrels, Sleep II can start being used over Sleepga to extend sleeping duration.

|Normal Strat=
:Duo'd + 4 trusts, DNC + BLU , trusts were AA EV, Koru, Monb, Yoran.
*BLU mighty guard + DNC haste samba + haste2 for buffs.
*BLU aoe sleep, Fight boss first
*BLU savage blade bomb
*SC req > rudra > rudra or savage > rudra
*once boss is dead the adds die VERY fast to skillchain
*reliable wins with this strat on N, fights didn't take super long either.

|Easy Strat=
:Agustus Trust, Apururu(U) Trust, WHM, DDx3
*Enter and attack the scoundrel after buffing. WHM should ensure that Apururu does not die while DDs focus on scoundrel. Afflatus Solace is very useful. Apururu is great for removing stats, but that leaves melees vulnerable while he is casting *-na spells. Did not sleep Pilferer.
*Switch target to bomb whenever possible.
*Take out Pilferer when Scoundrel is dead. Again, WHM should ready Cure V for Kibosh and let Apururu deal with status ailments.
*Multi-step skillchains are key (e.g. we used CDC > Evisc. > Rudra )
*This setup works, though there are likely better setups.

*Immediately begins the battle with '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' which will grant the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' an {{color|ice|aura}}.

Will use the following [[:Category:Quadav#Abilities|'''TP moves''']]:
*'''Imperfect Shell Defense''': {{buff}} Grants a damage taken reduction -98%, attack increase, and removes status ailments and gains shell aura.
:*Disappears during each TP move or spell cast and reappears after one is completed.
::*During this window, the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' will take +200% damage.
*'''Wail of Gu'Dha''': 30' AoE {{magical}} draw-in, damage, '''curse''' (-75% HP/MP), and {{color|fire|plague}} (-50 TP/-500 MP /[[tic]])
:*Used once after the defeat of the '''Bozzetto Elementalist'''.
:*Players may run out of range of this ability and leave one player with hate in range to trigger it.
:*The curse affect will always land on players in range. Not even [[Asylum]] prevents this.
*'''Torment of Gu'Dha''': AoE {{magical}} {{earth}} damage, {{color|earth|petrify}}, and hate reset.
:*This move is used exclusively after the use of '''Wail of Gu'Dha'''.
:*The petrify effect lasts for ~45 seconds and is only able to be resisted via abilities such as [[Asylum]], [[Perfect Defense]], and [[Divine Caress]].

|Notes=
*Evasion and Defense of the additional Bozzetto Quadav are considerably low.
*Adds are immune to '''sle'''{{color|light|ep}} and {{color|earth|petrify}}.
*All adds use their corresponding {{icon|SP}} 1-hour abilities
*The '''Bozzetto Berserker''' possesses [[counter]] with an enhanced activation rate.
*After the appearance of the '''Bozzetto Elementalist''', the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' will begin casting Cure on them when the '''Elementalist''' is low on HP.
:*Players may use this as a method of defeating the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' without having to deal with the AoE petrify spam from '''Torment of Gu'Dha''' if they so choose. Every time the '''High Vicar''' casts Cure, his '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' buff will drop for a moment, making him a much softer target.
*On higher difficulties, after the second benediction, the effect of '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' changes to having a single weakness out of Slashing/Piercing/Blunt/Magic, selected randomly on each use. Using the correct damage type that targets this weakness will deal extreme damage with even weaker hits, commonly hitting 99,999 damage.
**The additional Quadavs that spawn will also use this ability and have their own weakness.
**Defeating the additional Quadavs '''after''' the second '''Benediction''' will '''not''' trigger the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' to use '''Torment of Gu'Dha''', allowing players to safely defeat the boss.
|Very Difficult Strat=
Generally the same as Very Easy, but with an additional phase.
*First Phase:
**Pull the boss and defeat the adds as usual, the boss's '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' will drop.
**DPS the boss down until the first benediction.
*Second Phase:
**Silence the '''Bozzetto Elementalist''' and take it down to half health or so, and use the casting windows to deal damage to the boss.
**Eventually the boss will '''Benediction''' again and the final two adds will spawn.
*Third Phase:
**Silence the adds and pull them over, search for their damage type weaknesses and defeat them.
**The '''Bozzetto Elementalist''' can now be safely taken down.
**Finally finish off the boss.
*Other notes:
**They don't hit particularly hard, any tank should generally be able to hold them relatively easily, and may even be optional.

|Difficult Strat=

|Normal Strat= Same general strategy as Very Easy.

|Easy Strat= Same general strategy as Very Easy.

|Very Easy Strat=
Engage the '''Bozetto High Vicar''', who will spawn two adds.
* Build TP on the '''Bozetto Berserker''', who should die pretty swiftly.
* Dump the TP on the '''Bozetto Devout''' in an attempt to skip his Invincible.
* Re-engage the '''Bozetto High Vicar''' and beat on him until he uses Benediction and summons the '''Bozzetto Elementalist'''.
* Carefully melee the '''Bozzetto Elementalist''' down to 25-50% HP and then cast Silence on him if available.
* Re-engage the '''Bozetto High Vicar''', apply debuffs, and wait for it to cast Cure on the '''Bozzetto Elementalist'''. When it does, it will drop his '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' momentarily. Dump your WS damage on him during this moment and repeat until he is dead.
* Finish off the '''Bozzetto Elementalist'''.

|Key Item Locations=
* Daily KI can be received quickly near [[Palborough Mines]] [[Home Point]].
* EXP-yielding KIs can be received easily in [[Pashhow Marshlands (S)]]. There are numerous eligible [[Quadav]]s near the [[Survival Guide]], which is likely to be the most busy location to obtain them.

will use the [[:Category:Qutrub#Abilities|following '''TP moves''']]:
*100~80%
**'''Animating Wail''', '''Mangle''', '''Leaping Cleave'''
*80~60%
**The Bigwig's weapon will break, '''summons adds''', and uses '''Hex Palm''' as well as '''Spinal Cleave'''.
*60~30%
**The Bigwig equips it's secondary weapon. Gains en-death while adds are out wand will use '''Unblest Jambiya''' as well as '''Gen'ei Ryodan'''
***'''Unblest Jambiya''' - AoE shadow removal.
***'''Gen'ei Ryodan''' - Conal damage, stun, and a dispel (removes 5 shadows). Dispels a buff for every hit not blocked by shadows (e.g. no shadows = 5 buffs dispelled).
*50%
**Uses [[Perfect Dodge]]
*30~0%
**Weapon breaks again, '''resummons any defeated adds''', and casts [[Utsusemi: San]] frequently. Loses the en-death effect while adds are out and will use '''Phantom Whorl''' as well as '''Turn the Tables'''.
***The Bigwig may be {{color|wind|silenced}} to stop the Utsusemi spam, but this will require an immunobreak to land.
***'''Genku Bakken / Phantom Whorl''' - Very high {{physical}} damage single hit attack, absorbed by shadows. Has a short range (~'10)
****This move will generally 1-shot players. It is recommended to shadow tank the NM at around 30% HP and under as even with [[Indi-Wilt]] and Damage Taken equipment the move will still do ~3-6k damage.
*****You may also run out of range of this move.
***'''Spin the Tables / Turn the Tables''' - drain based on the current player's HP; Spin the Tables is 15' AoE drain. This move can not drain more HP than the player has, and returns more HP than is drained.
****Frequent use of this on players with high HP will render the Bigwig undefeatable. Players must fight with a lower HP to return less to the Bigwig when it is used. However, with the June 2022 update, any player with less than 10% of their health will die instantly.
|Notes=
*Adds are immune to sleep.
*Adds will use their respective 1-hour special abilities and standard [[:Category:Qutrub#Abilities|Qutrub]] TP moves.
:*The Astrologers will cast typical BLM spells including, T4 nukes, Sleep II, Poisonga, and [[Ice Spikes]].
::*The Astrologers are susceptible to {{color|wind|silence}}.
:*When the Bigwig is at 30% or lower the adds will gain access to a move named '''Triple Reversal'''.
::*'''Triple Reversal''' - Drains HP from the target based on unknown conditions. This effect can be seen draining over 30,000 HP from a player.
:::*Caused by having 3 or more adds (including the Bigwig) on a target at a time. Player may outrun this move if kiting.
:*The rate of activation on the Bigwig's endeath effect increases the more players continue to damage the Bigwig.
:*The effect is removed once the adds have been defeated.

----
*'''Kiting Tip''': Run closer to the walls and corners rather than the pillars to avoid Triple Reversal while kiting.
:*Running closer to the pillars causes mobs to path worse and split more; increasing the chances of a cross route into a K.O from Reversal.
:*The mobs will still break their pathing here and there, but unless you are way too far ahead they will regroup as you go without splitting up at a pillar and crossing over your route.
::*The kite path essentially is an isosceles triangle, you want to almost run into the corners and gauge/adjust your distance to the mobs at each corner if needed. This should reduce group wipes by a lot.
|Very Difficult Strat=

This month has 3 different strategies.

1) Mewing strategy: This is the most reliable strategy, with reasonable clear speed.

PLD or RUN, DD/NIN or NIN/WAR, RDM/NIN, COR/NIN, BRD/NIN, SMN.

DD pulls NM to the corner and the PLD or RUN kites adds around the pillar when they spawn. BRD does March, Mad, Mad, Min and keeps elegy on Bigwig.

DD keep shadows up to prevent endeath kill, rdm keeps dia3, slow II on megaboss, silence on astrologers when they pop, then dps when they are not casting. SMN cure the tank.

At 30% tank stop kiting and hold all mobs away from megaboss in one place so mewing lullaby can land on all the adds, smn spams mewing lullaby on cooldown to prevent Triple Reversal fires off. Rdm will need to recast silence on Astrologers as soon as silence wears off.

At 30% when NM spams '''Turn the Tables''', just let the DD sit at single digit HP. Nin should toss some vokes before wsing to help the lesser shadow DDs eaten by a potential multi attack.

2) Kiting strategy: This strategy is potentially faster than mewing strategy, with more flexibility on dps job types, but they are a little bit less reliable because Triple Reversal has a chance to look tank if party doesn't kill fast.

PLD or RUN, DD/NINx2, BRD/NIN, COR/NIN, RDM or healer

This strategy is identical to mewing strategy except the tank kites all the adds from start to finish, no mewing lullaby used. Healer will need to silence the adds.

3) Kill adds strategy: This strategy is the slowest strategy but most reliable of all. Instead of kiting adds, DDs will kill all adds that spawned. There are 2 waves of adds total. Once adds are dead, NM will no longer us endeath nor triple reversal, therefore removed all the potential possibility to wipe.

|Difficult Strat=
|Normal Strat=
BRD/RDM, RDM/NIN, DD/NIN (x3), PLD
* Can use similar strategy for Very Difficult. However, reversing the roles also works -- i.e. rather than having the PLD kite the adds, the PLD tanks the adds and someone else with /NIN kites the NM. We found that killing the adds makes the fight much safer (but prolongs the whole fight; limit points and capacity points make for a decent consolation prize, though).
* BRD should double March and Madrigal until the adds pop. Switch to double March and Hymnus for the pops. Make sure to silence (easy to land) the Astrologer. PLD should try to grab hate on all the adds. At this point, someone (RDM) should kite the main NM. A simple weapon skill should be enough (or self-light using CDC if you need even more damage) to get the NM's attention. Elegy, Slow II, and Paralyze II should make the kiting process super easy (esp. with /NIN sub). BRD can then switch to double March and Minuet to kill the adds once the NM is away. The adds can be easily dispatched with double-light skillchains or better (we had BLU, SAM, WAR, and used four-step skillchains). With the NM being kited, the BRD can easily main heal (not much healing needed for /NIN).
* When the second set of adds pop, use double March and Hymnus for safety until the NM is separated from the adds. Then switch to double March and Madrigal (or Minuet). If BRD can play more than 3 songs, even better. Same strategy as above. Use Troubador/Nightingale to speed this part up and get back to the NM.
'''Normal Half Kiting Strat:'''

PLD/WAR, PUP/NIN, DD/NIN, BRD/NIN COR/NIN, WHM

* Strategy: Start with Boss then kill all adds (BLM then both DRK) while Pet tank Boss, then zerg Boss till its dead while pld kite adds near 30% hp.

* Pet was full DD set (VE head/SS body), Strobe must be equiped, PUP should use Light, Fire and Wind Maneuver. BRD used double March and double Minuet, but can use Acc song too if needed. COR used SAM and WAR rolls.

* Have Pet or BRD pull boss with elegy to the corner where we started. All engage on Boss except PLD and WHM, PLD wait for adds in the middle, they usually came when we dropped Boss to around ~76% HP.

* Once Adds are up , DDs swap to them, the person who still have hate from Boss must wait till the pet get hate back and let it solo tank, PUP should swap to pet enmity set (especially before Strobe) until the pet have enough enmity from Boss. Pet doesn't need a Tank set, as long as you can keep a Light maneuver on it for Auto-repair kit.

* Kill order for adds: BLM then DRK(x2), WHM should silence BLM to make it easier, BRD dispel Ice spikes if needed. Once all dead swap back to Boss, except the PLD who stand back in middle. At 50% Boss will use Perfect Dodge and around 30% HP he will pop adds again, PLD must grab all of them and kite around the 3 pillars using his enmity abilities. DDs ignore adds and zerg the Boss, it shouldn't take long with a few Skillchains.

'''The idea of this strategy was to supress the Boss' En-death from killing any DD/NIN and not making a Ninja mandatory in every runs. Also the PLD doesn't have to kite the adds and risk of dying in the process, only at the end before the last 30% HP but they never lived enough to cause troubles. Worked like a charm with little to no risk and each run took around 8~10 mins. Now go enjoy your wins.'''

|Easy Strat=
NIN or DD/NIN (x3), BRD, SMN, Apururu(U)
* Very safe strategy
* March x2 + Hymnus to help with Utsusemi recast; Hymnus is just in case the main NM sneaks in a move during recast of shadows so we don't have to deal with raising mid-fight or MP issues. If you can cast more than 3 songs, have at it.
* When adds pop, whichever DD has hate kites NM while the others focus on Astrologer. The SMN then focuses on the Tormentor.
* When adds are dead, group back up on the NM.
* SMN can probably be replaced by 4th DD who would kite Tormentor until the Astrologer is down. SMN can optionally do spike damage on NM during kiting phase so that the DD kiting the NM can rejoin in taking down the adds.

:*Defeating other Sahagins will progressively remove HP from the Sonsgstress.
:*Silencing will remove the bio aura and regen effect from the mobs.
:*The Songstress possesses a high regain effect and will use '''Cleansing Bubbles''' to remove all debuffs from itself and any nearby mobs (~20') as well as waking them.

*This composition and strategy assumes that everyone in the group is well-geared and very familiar with their roles. This instance's VD is relatively more challenging than many other months.
*Due to the strong Regen present, burst damage from Skillchains is integral to success

*This is likely the fastest way to farm if you have no seals left.
*Bard sings lightning carol x2 and march X2.

:*This method is a zerg where you defeat all the mobs before any respawn so that you can just defeat the Songstress.
*DDs run in, and use some enmity move, such a warcry for hate. This controls the mobs so that they may be slept by the BRD and not run around.
:*A DDing RUN excels in this strategy for DPS with hate control.
*Fight on top of the Songstress and start with the WHM mob.
:*Resleep the mobs after [[Benediction]] wakes them all.
*Proceed to rapidly take down the others mobs, split up your targets if you can. When they are dead the songstress can then take damage and quickly dies.

Suggested kill order is SMN>BLM>NIN>THF&THF>Monarch.
* The Rascal (SMN) can use multiple [[Astral Flow]], so it is best to take it out as quickly as possible before it can do more than one.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'''Melee Strat VD'''

RUN, WHM, GEO/RDM, Savage BRD/NIN, Savage COR/NIN, DD

'''Pre Fight Setup'''
* WHM - Barblizzard, Barsleep
* RUN - 3X Sulpor runes (Use valiance RIGHT before you start/pull to give water resistance to entire party)
* GEO - Fury/Frailty (I use entrust STR, but anything to help boost your dmg here would work depending on your group, precision or torpor would also be a possibility)
* COR - Chaos/Sam
* BRD - Marcato HM, Mad X2, Minuet (Doing madrigal X2 as the boss at the end has high evasion even if you are dispelling his evasion boost when he puts it on)

'''Fight Strategy'''
* '''Part I'''
This fight is essentially won or lost in the first couple minutes, and comes down to killing the first mob (SMN Tonberry called Bozzetto Rascal) who is present when you first enter. Your goal is to try and kill the Rascal SMN as quickly as possible. While fighting the Rascal several things occur, the first of which are his astral flows. For this strategy you let the astral flows hit you (which should be survivable) as long as you have barblizzard from the WHM, sulpor / valiance from the RUN, and finally your RUN's One for All (OFA) up. I wait about 15 seconds AFTER pulling the Rascal before the RUN does OFA in order to increase the amount of time it's available to help reduce astral flow damage (In other words, when used too soon it's wasted as the Rascal doesn't use astral flow until about 20-30 seconds into the fight).

Also, while fighting the Rascal several adds will spawn followed shortly after by the boss. In order to deal with these spawns and allow the Run to perform a quick AoE hate grab (Geist Wall or whatever), I would highly suggest having '''EVERYONE''' grouped together within ~5 yalms. Most of the newly spawned mobs will run right into your camp (if everyone is grouped together) allowing the RUN to cast an AoE hate spell on them quickly. For the Bozzetto Defiler (BLM) you will need to flash or blank gaze to grab hate as he will initially remain at casting distance.

With all this in mind, everything comes down to quickly killing the SMN (Bozzetto Rascal) as quickly as you can. Get Dia II on it and use anything else that will help you kill it before your Sulpor/Valiance and One For All buffs wear off. After you have successfully defeated the SMN then this is a relatively easy fight.

* '''Part II'''
After the SMN, proceed with the following kill order. Make sure to have your GEO cast Dia II, Distract, and Dispel on all of these mobs. Magic Finale will not work, as Tonberries have high Light resistance.

'''1:''' Engage and deal damage to the first Bozzetto Chaser (THF) until he uses Perfect Dodge at which point you will disengage and go to the next mob

'''2:''' Engage and deal damage to the second Bozzetto Chaser (THF) until he uses Perfect Dodge at which point you will disengage and go to the next mob

'''3:''' Engage and kill the Bozzetto Defiler (BLM)

'''4:''' Engage and kill the first Bozzetto Chaser (THF)

'''5:''' Engage and kill the second Bozzetto Chaser (THF)

'''6:''' Engage and kill the Bozzetto Slicer (NIN). Have your Whm put [[Sacrosanctity]] up.

* '''Part III'''
Now it's time for the Boss, the Bozzetto Monarch. You will want your GEO to swap their spells to Geo-Frailty / Indi-Precision / [[Entrust]] Torpor. The Monarch can and most likely will use a +400 evasion boost move named "Sigh". You will want your GEO to dispel this, along with keeping Dia II & Distract up throughout the fight. The boss is a cake walk except for a couple things. The first thing to watch out for is the ethereal (translucent) mob that spawns anytime the Bozzetto Monarch uses ''Vertical Slash'' or ''Lateral Reap''. Whenever this ethereal Tonberry is summoned, he will try to Sneak Attack and close a Darkness skillchain on whoever currently has the highest hate level on the Boss which will likely one-shot players. To combat this, all you need to do is have the Tank (or whoever has hate) turn and face the ethereal mob any time they spawn. This can get tricky with your damage dealers when the Bozzetto Monarch uses the hate reset move called Slash Vitals. If the monarch uses this hate reset move on the tank it will result in the monarch changing his focus to the DD with the highest hate resulting in the necessity for this DD to turn and face the ethereal mob if/when it spawns. Usually the tank can get hate back relatively quickly all things depending, but make sure if a DD has hate they are prepared to turn when the ethereal mob spawns.

Lastly, you will need to reset and keep your Tonberry hate as low as possible, due to a couple of the Bozzetto Monarch's moves doing x20 and x100 whatever your current [[Tonberry Hate]] is at. You CAN call for help on every mob in this ambuscade and still receive ALL the Hallmark and Gallantry rewards for this fight. By calling for help on all the mobs you will build less tonberry hate which also results in fewer deaths from moves that multiply damage based on Tonberry Hate. I had to reset my hate every few fights as you still build up hate from killing the mobs for the KI.

*[[Chaos Roll]] [[Samurai Roll]] [[Fighter's Roll]] [[Gallant's Roll]]

'''Strategy:'''
*RUN pulls all Velkk to the starting corner. RDM uses Saboteur and binds Bozzetto Regent, sleeps the PLD Servitor and DRK Bozzetto Servitor and silences BLM Bozzeto Servitor. At this point, it's recommend that the party stack together in the corner. This will prevent problems from adds running off to a distant WHM during hate resets. As such, all mages should idle in a DT set. Ninja subjob is recommended for melee players to prevent AoE dispels, amnesia, and damage.
*CORs and RDM start by burning down the BLM Bozzetto Servitor.
*RDM should be careful to dispel any buffs from each target, apply [[Distract III]], [[Dia III]] and [[Addle II]], and resleep any Bozzetto Servitors that wake.
*Once the BLM Bozzetto Servitor is defeated, the party should attack the Bozzetto Regent with [[Savage Blade]].
**Care needs to be taken to not exceed the 40k damage threshold due to excessive TP overflow or skillchain damage.
**If the Bozzetto Regent is allowed to level up several times, a wipe becomes very likely.
*Once the Bozzetto Regent is eliminated, the remaining adds can be taken out without much trouble.

*Note: This strategy will work with most other DD Jobs in place one of the CORs, but care should be taken to use Weapon Skills that will not create a skillchain that exceeds the 40k damage limit. PLD can also easily tank this battle.

'''Bozzetto Mob''':

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''':

'''TANK BRD/WHM HEALER DDX2 COR or GEO''' 
Buff with usual CP party buffs. Tank pulls and BRD uses Nightingale + Troubadour to sleep the adds and boss. With NiTro still up, buff DDs with Honor March, Madrigal, and Minuet. Fourth song, if available, is situational. For adds, a second March or Minuet is fine so long as BRD is on point with Finale during boss phase. For avatar and boss, Scherzo is preferred.
*Kill order should be {{Icon|BLM}} '''BLM''' (Stormbringer) > {{Icon|BRD}} '''BRD''' (Lyricist) > {{Icon|SAM}} '''SAM''' (Swordsman) > {{Icon|MNK}} '''MNK''' (Brawler) > {{Icon|NIN}} '''NIN''' (Shinobi) > '''Garuda''' > {{Icon|SMN}} '''Boss''' (Conjurer).
:*Always kill Garuda first before attacking the boss. 
Once target changes to Garuda, make sure to use Baraera. BRD should double check that Protect, Shell, and Baraera should be on the DDs until healer can reapply stronger versions. 
The Conjurer has the ability to dispel buffs, but it appears that songs are always intact. 
Howl MUST be removed or the party could potentially wipe (if Scherzo is not available) to Kamaitachi. 
The Conjurer has a tendency to summon Garuda right around 1-2%. Impatient DDs who try to finish off the boss rather than kill Garuda will likely wipe to the spikes that the Conjurer gains while Garuda is out.

'''DD RUN, BRD, WHM, DD, COR, GEO''' 
Buffs:Fury/Frailty entrust wilt. Chaos/SAM roll, march x2, madrigal x2.

1) RUN pulls everything to the corner and brd sleep them all.

2) WHM silence Stormbringer.

3) DD and COR kill Stormbringer, DD RUN solo DD swordsman. Brd and geo dispel spam on anything thats being engaged.

4) After Stormbringer and swordsman dead, DD, RUN and COR engage Brawler, Shinobi and Lyricist.

5) Before DDs engage Shinobi WHM could use Sacrosanctity and RUN could use One for All to prevent Mijin Gakure from Shinobi one shot everyone.

6) After all the adds are dead, kill Garuda then Conjurer.

Notes:

The setup above takes less than 3.5 min to clear from start to finish, including buff time. Actual engage time is about 2 min +/- 10 sec. Because the fight is so short, it is ok to use entrust wilt from start.

For groups without the firepower to clear before entrust wilt wears, it is better to save entrust on conjurer. Conjurer tp moves can be very deadly without wilt.

Brd and geo must spam dispel for brd songs and Howl.

From our experience, Sacrosanctity works well for Mijin Gakure, thus WHM recommended.

Scherzo is not necessary as long as wilt is up, howl dispelled and Sacrosanctity used for Shinobi.

Our RUN engaged different mob from other DDs just to save engage time, thats it. It is alright to have all 3 DD engage the same add, or have each DD solo their own add with multi step SC. As long as backline can handle the cures/dispels and Sacrosanctity used before Shinobi, adds kill order doesn't matter that much.

'''6 Box: SAM GEO BRD WHM COR PLD''' 
Buffs: Indi-Attunement, Entrust Indi-Vex, Geo-Frailty, Sam Roll + Runeist Roll, Honor + Victory March + Scherzo + Ballads on support/tank, Replace Ballads with DD songs (either madrigal or minuets or etudes depending on gear/job), Baraera. 
PLD pulls back to starting corner, BRD sleeps with NT, I had to use Horde Lullaby on the main group, then Foe Lullaby on the BLM who stands too far out. Kill order for me was MNK SAM BRD BLM NIN. Dispel adds as you fight them. BLM can be silenced but doesn't really matter, they die in 3-4 WS anyway.

After killing all adds, kill Garuda before touching boss. 
Boss has potent spikes effect if Garuda is up. Once Garuda is dead, zerg the boss until he re-summons Garuda. He will then proceed to Astral Flow multiple times, but with attunement/vex/runeist roll and baraera.
*This seems to do less than 100 dmg on VD, and with scherzo there as a backup in case it randomly doesn't resist. 
As soon as it re-summons Garuda, switch to and kill Garuda. Switch back to the boss, finish zerging and it's an easy win.

* Lycopodiums always take 1 melee damage every time you hit, so don't waste your WS on them. Did not test magic to see if it did more.
* Be aware that around 10% Fatal Scream can put doom on your party. Doom clears automatically when you kill the Citrullus, so no worries of dying at the end or in Mhaura after the win.

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Easy''': 
99RDM/NIN with trusts: Amchuchu, Apururu [U], Iroha II, Qultada, Shanototto II
Took all of 6 minutes post buffs. Amchuchu was a better tank for this than AA EV. Killing Calappa Calappa restores MP (not sure if all or a %age, but it returned 333 to Iroha, 268 to Amchuchu, and 425 to Apururu, so that was a plus)

Fairly easy fight, went much better with Amchuchu and Valiance. I could probably swap out Qultada, but I get lazy with the Dispels, so someone has to do it...

General recommendations: Make sure to have Barwater on all in AOE range, if you can use shadows (and keep 2-3 up) they will help mitigate AOE damage, save TP to kill Calappa Calappa when it spawns. Make sure you've got someone to dispel/finale/dark shot it - it likes to use Magic/Physical Defense Boosts. I think you can be fairly flexible with party set ups. You can go with Tank, WHM, support (RDM, BRD, COR), 2 DD, 1 BLM or SCH for MB. Buff, run in, smash it's face.

'''Very Easy''': 
99RDM/NIN wit AA EV, Apururu [U], Iroha II, Qultada, Shantotto II

Has a few AOE moves - only one that did a lot of damage (700-800 to trusts was Sundering Snip, the others did about 100-200 damage to trusts) Two times during the fight it spawned a Calappa Calappa, a crab, which went down with 1 WS (12k Savage Blade on one and a 5k on the other, chat log never said I defeated it, just said "Calappa Callapa falls to the ground" there was no DOT on it, and I never disengaged the Boss - so I'm not entirely sure what made it go away.)

Matsui-P's hint on the [https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/58282 forums] reads:
<div style="border-left: 2px solid grey; margin: 1em 0 1em 1em; padding: .5em;">Normal features a battle against mushrooms. When fighting them, it’s best to remember that darkness is best banished using light so how you handle the dark elemental present will be key. After all, mushrooms grow best where it’s dark...</div>

This relates to the fight. When the fight first starts, only Yartsa Gunbu will be there. After a timed amount, a dark elemental will spawn. The dark elemental allows smaller funguars called Skullcaps to spawn. Both the dark elemental and skull caps start with random hate. It is easy to have a trust party overwhelmed with adds. If the dark elemental is not defeated within enough time a second elemental will spawn, causing even more adds. All funguars will use their respective familial abilities.

When a dark elemental is defeated, a light elemental will spawn and take no actions against you or Yartsa Gunbu. At this time, the boss becomes very weak to light elemental damage.

It is possible to brute force defeat Yartsa, however it is not recommended unless properly geared.

BST + Trusts
Mainly running ambuscade gear with no gear swap using Scissorleg Xerin, with trusts Rahal/Zeid II/Shantotto II/Koru-moru/Kupipi. iLVL 119
Start the fight engaging Yartsa Gunbu. When the dark elemental spawns, kill it quickly. Your jug pet's TP moves will kill adds in sufficient time. Once the dark elemental is defeated, switch back to Yartsa Gunbu. I had to repeat the process twice before being able to burn the boss down for the last push. Adds will kill your trusts in no time, so watch out and use AoE from your pet if you can.

It is possible to intimidate Yartsa Gunbu, making killer instinct even better than just damage and damage reduction. Just remember for the bonus of Killer Instinct, you must use a vermin-class jug pet.

'''Splendid Sakura''':

Has a 20' Plague aura.

'''Uses the following TP Moves''':
:*'''Pinecone Bomb''': {{physical}} {{dark}} Area of effect Sleep and damage.
:*'''Drill Branch''': {{physical}} {{dark}} Frontal cone Blind and damage.
:*'''Pollenstorm''': Area of effect Paralyze and damage.
:*'''Chelate''': Removes food effects, potentially has a detrimental effect on the boss (affecting the Plague aura or its damage taken).

'''Antagonizing Aspen''':

Has a 20' Muddle aura. Very resistant to sleep.

'''Languishing Larch''':

Has a 20' Amnesia aura. Very resistant to sleep.

'''Hibernating Hickory''':

Has a 20' Silence aura. Very resistant to sleep.

Fight starts with just Splendid Sakura, but she will spawn in Languishing Larch and Hibernating Hickory on top of herself individually at specific HP thresholds (66%, 50%, 20%, maybe more). If damage is high, multiple will appear at the same time. On Difficult and Very Difficult, it spawns Antagonizing Aspen at the final HP threshold.

|Setups and Strategies=

It's important to defeat the adds quickly, with priority going to the ones that affect your job more. Languishing Larch will spawn in on top of the boss once sufficient damage is dealt, immediately inflicting Amnesia to everyone nearby, making ignoring it difficult in favor of just killing the boss quickly. Healer trusts such as Apururu will generally stay out of range of Pinecone Bomb and wake people up, but Splendid Sakura uses it very frequently and will sometimes sleep the healer based on positioning, which can lead to a bad situation. If Hibernating Hickory is up, it will prevent your trusts from healing at all unless it is moved away or dealt with quickly, generally making it a higher priority to kill unless you aren't using trusts.

The only real differences on higher difficulties noticed were the double add spawn at low HP (which could potentially be attributed to burst damage just knocking it down two HP thresholds) and perhaps more frequent use of Pollenstorm. Beyond that, the stats of the enemies are just higher.

This was ridiculously easy.

* NQ Sulevia PLD, roll-only COR, decently geared PUP (1200 JP) with Ohtas and Taeon (-DMG, MEVA, +Regen) with Valor/Valor Automaton, Kupipi (no Apururu this week b/c I apparently haven't done any Unity stuff, oops), Qultada, Koru Moru

* At the start it was Culler Jack and 2x Spooky Wheezers. I sent the Automaton after the Culler Jack and had the PLD take down the 2 Spooky Wheezers. Then sent everyone after Culler and it popped more Spooky Wheezers around 50% and again at 25%. I think that I could have just focused on Culler Jack and ignored the Wheezers because the didn't affect my ability to kill the Culler.

* VD Solo (2024 version) PUP/RDM, Trusts are Valaineral (He uses AOE to gain Enmity from all mobs) Amchuchu, King of Hearts, Cherrukiki, Sylvie. Cast Stoneskin, Blink, Phalanx, Regen and burn down the 4 adds before killing Lancer Jack.

|Notes=
''This month's Normal Ambuscade features an uragnite. The uragnite’s damage taken will be reduced to 1 while it’s in its shell, so it might help to bring jobs and alter egos that can deal multiple hits in quick succession. Additionally, there is a way to deal extra damage even while it’s sheltered if you meet certain conditions, so be on the lookout for that.''

* '''Bonus Damage mechanic'''
** Kauri gains increased resistance to physical and magical damage based on the damage type it is taking.
** When physical/magical damage taken is balanced, it will do an {{icon|sp}} animation, players will have a large amount of HP/MP restored, and its damage reduction will be reduced.
** If damage taken weighs more heavily toward one type, it will use '''Venom Shell''' when going into its shell.

* When it goes into its shell, all damage is reduced to 1. It will pop out after a certain amount of damage is dealt (~30).

|Very Difficult Strat=

NIN tanking is preferable: Uragnites attack slowly and deal critical damage with '''Painful Whip''' which can one-shot trusts.

*If the current target has any buffs besides food, the Cockatrice will be able to use a TP move that absorbs those buffs. Players could load a tank up with garbage buffs of no consequence (Bar spells opposite of the SC being used, etc.) to trigger it to continually use this move. It is recommended to have one character/trust try to tank the Cockatrice so that other characters may be buffed and fight it.
*The Cockatrice appears to take heavier damage the more buffs he absorbs. It's possibly the number of times he's absorbed a buff and not the unique number of buffs on him - needs verification. He will start taking very heavy skillchain damage, which can be used to more quickly reduce his massive HP.

|Intro Text='''Ambuscade''' is a new type of battle content wherein the enemies within change every monthly version update, first released in the April 5th 2016 Version Update[http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/50256-Apr.-5-2016-%28JST%29-Version-Update?p=575053&viewfull=1#post575053].

Ambuscade has a variety of difficulty levels, so everyone from seasoned veterans to those just starting out should find a challenge equal to their needs. With '''[[:Category:Ambuscade Rewards|varying rewards]]''' to match. 
Those wishing to tackle the strongest foes are advised to select “Very Difficult” and be prepared for a valiant struggle! 

Latent effects from [[Legion Rewards]] denoted with "[[Legion]]:" are active in Ambuscade.[http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/polnews/news25715.shtml]
}}
==Getting Started==
Complete the '''Stepping into an Ambuscade''' [[Records of Eminence]] objective and speak with [[Gorpa-Masorpa]] in [[Mhaura]] at (G-9) for an explanation about Ambuscade.
* Players must have completed the [[Records of Eminence#Basics|'''First Step Forward''' Records of Eminence objective]] in order to undertake Stepping into an Ambuscade.
**''' Stepping into an Ambuscade''' can be set from the Tutorial section of the Records of Eminence menu under Basics:
:::Quests → Objective List → Tutorial → Basics → Stepping into an Ambuscade
Be in possession of either the [[Ambuscade Primer Volume One]] or [[Ambuscade Primer Volume Two|Volume Two Key Items]].
* All party members must be in possession of one of these two Key Items.

===Eligibility Requirements===
In order to participate, players must satisfy the following:
*Complete either the '''[[Ambuscade Primer Volume One]]''' or '''[[Ambuscade Primer Volume Two|Volume Two]]''' objectives in order to obtain the Key Item for the corresponding volume of the primer for the type of battle players wish to complete.
**Players may have only one of each of the Ambuscade Primer Key Items.
***Objective targets vary by month after a version update, opponents are rotated out, and generally not repeated.

*The Ambuscade Primer Volume One and Two objectives can be undertaken from the Ambuscade category of the [[Records of Eminence]] menu.
::Quests → Objective List → Content → Ambuscade
:::'''''[[Dynamis]] and [[Abyssea]] monsters do not count for kills required'''''

===Entry and Progression===
[[File:Gorpa-Masorpa.jpg|250px|right|link=Gorpa-Masorpa]]
*Examine the '''[[Ambuscade Tome]]''' in [[Mhaura]] (G-9) and select the type and difficulty level you would like to attempt.
**Only the party leader may register the group.
**The party will be registered so long as the system detects that there are no issues with the layer area or registering party members.
***Players will be unable to register if:
****Any player is not in possession of an Amuscade Primer Volume One or Two Key Item.
****The number of registrants exceeds the maximum of fifty reservations.
****A party member already has a reservation.
*****To cancel a reservation:
******A player may cancel their reservation via the ambuscade tome.
******Three minutes has passed from the time the player is notified that their instance is ready.
******The registrant boards a boat.
******The registrant leaves Mhaura in '''''any''''' way.
**Adding new party members after registration will not cancel the registration, but the party may only enter with the number of players it registered with.
*A message will display for the party leader when entry is ready.
**As of the July 2016 update[http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/50942-Jul.-5-2016-%28JST%29-Version-Update?p=581616&viewfull=1#post581616], automatic entering was added.
***The default setting is "off" and may be changed by having the party lead examine the Ambuscade Tome and selecting the ''Toggle auto-transport'' function.
***In line with this, having the auto-transport function off has a notification sound played when it is the party's turn.
****This may be disabled via the sound settings in the Config menu.
*Examine the ambuscade tome '''''within three minutes''''' to enter.
** The time limit for an Ambuscade is 30 minutes (Earth time).
** Between 1~6 players may participate.
***[[Trust]]s may be called after entering [[Maquette Abdhaljs-Legion]].
****The number of alter egos that may be called forth will depend on the number of players initially registered.
***Player HP and MP will be restored to full and any status ailments they are suffering from will be removed upon entry.
** Key Items will only be lost upon victory.
***Meaning that should a player or group lose, they may reattempt the battlefield without having to reacquire new Key Items.
**As of the August 2022 update[https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/59789-August-10-2022-%28JST%29-Version-Update?p=646129&viewfull=1#post646129], Exemplar Points are no longer gained or lost in Ambuscade.
Upon victory, a special currencies known as [[Hallmarks]] and [[Gallantry|{{H:text|Given only to those in a party of two or more players.|Badges of Gallantry}}]], which may be [[:Category:Ambuscade Rewards|exchanged for rewards]], Experience/Limit Points, and Capacity points will be given to all players.

==Battle Information==
===A Word On Enmity===
*Enmity functions abnormally in two ways.
#The mobs will go to a random player once someone aggros.
#After aggro everyone is on the hate list by default, so you can easily get hate with AOE enmity actions like [[Warcry]] and [[Valiance]] or self target enmity actions like [[Foil]] and [[Pflug]].

===Battle Type & Levels===
There are two types of Ambuscades you may attempt. Entry into either is determined by which Key Item you possess. 
''Note: Hallmark and Gallantry values have been updated to reflect the changes implemented in the [https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/64115 May 2026 Version Update].''

== Rewards ==
<big>''See '''[[:Category:Ambuscade Rewards|Ambuscade Rewards]]''' for specific item and equipment rewards.''</big>
===Hallmarks===
Hallmarks are the primary currency of {{PAGENAME}}. They can be used to purchase items from [[Gorpa-Masorpa]]. 
There are two types of rewards available. Those received in exchange for Hallmarks and those received for total amount of hallmarks accumulated.
* Hallmarks are not expended upon receiving items from the list of rewards for total amount of hallmarks accumulated.
* The types of items available vary with the content of that month’s Ambuscade.
* Your total number of hallmarks will reset back to 0 after each month's version update.

::'''''Hallmarks and Badges of Gallantry are reset upon the next month's version update being implemented (usually set to happen from around the 3rd to the 10th of a month).'''''[http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/50472-Announcing-the-May-Version-Update?p=577018&viewfull=1#post577018]
===Gallantry===
Badges of Gallantry are the secondary currency of {{PAGENAME}}. They can be used to purchase items from [[Gorpa-Masorpa]], and are only given to those who participate in {{PAGENAME}} with other players. 
* Like Hallmarks, your Badges of Gallantry will reset back to 0 after each month's version update.

===Monthly Adventurer Campaigns===
There is one type of campaign that may run any given month.

{{Category:Adventurer_Campaigns
|transcludesection=Ambuscade
}}

===JSE Cape Augmentation===
Job-specific [[Back]] equipment obtained with a [[Image:A. Voucher- Back icon.png]] [[Ambuscade Voucher: Back]] can be augmented by trading them along with certain items to [[Gorpa-Masorpa]].
*See the [[Image:AmbuscadeCapesW.gif|link=]] '''[[:Category:JSE_Capes#Ambuscade_Capes|JSE capes page]]''' for augment information for the Job Specific Capes.
To augment a cape:
* Trade the item to [[Gorpa-Masorpa]] along with either an [[Abdhaljs Thread]], [[Abdhaljs Dust]], [[Abdhaljs Sap]], [[Abdhaljs Dye]] or an [[Abdhaljs Resin]].
* Select the desired attribute, and confirm your choice. After the initial trade, you can max out that path on your next trade if you also trade enough materials.
** Augments may be changed by repeating the above steps.
** Changing the augment path will not return any items used up to that point.
***However, when using an [[File:Abdhaljs Needle icon.png|22px|link=]] [[Abdhaljs Needle]] to change the augment, the current potency is maintained.
* Further trading an augmented item with items corresponding to the attribute initially selected will increase the strength of the augmentation.
** For maximum strength augments the following are all required per cape:
::[[File:Abdhaljs Thread icon.png|22px|link=]] [[Abdhaljs Thread]] x20, [[File:Abdhaljs Dust icon.png|22px|link=]] [[Abdhaljs Dust]] x20, [[File:Abdhaljs Sap icon.png|22px|link=]] [[Abdhaljs Sap]] x10, [[File:Abdhaljs Dye icon.png|22px|link=]] [[Abdhaljs Dye]] x10, [[File:Abdhaljs Resin icon.png|22px|link=]] [[Abdhaljs Resin]] x5

===Ambuscade Weapons===
<onlyinclude>{{#ifeq:{{{transcludesection|Weapon Upgrade}}}|Weapon Upgrade|

Speaking with [[Gorpa-Masorpa]] and listening to the message from Abdhaljs will allow you to exchange an [[File:A. Voucher- Weapon icon.png{{!}}23px{{!}}link=]] [[Ambuscade Voucher: Weapon]] for a weapon of your choice or the grip. Each stage is then upgraded as follows: 
[[File:Abdhaljs Nugget icon.png{{!}}23px{{!}}link=Abdhaljs Nugget]] [[Abdhaljs Nugget]] x5 (1,500 Total Hallmarks / 4,500 Total Gallantry) 
[[File:Abdhaljs Gem icon.png{{!}}23px{{!}}link=Abdhaljs Gem]] [[Abdhaljs Gem]] x5 (2,500 Total Hallmarks / 7,500 Total Gallantry) 
[[File:Abdhaljs Anima icon.png{{!}}23px{{!}}link=Abdhaljs Anima]] [[Abdhaljs Anima]] x5 (4,000 Total Hallmarks / 12,000 Total Gallantry) 
[[File:Abdhaljs Matter icon.png{{!}}23px{{!}}link=Abdhaljs Matter]] [[Abdhaljs Matter]] x5 (6,000 Total Hallmarks / 18,000 Total Gallantry) and '''one of any non-Ambuscade''' [[:Category:Pulse_Panoplia#Weapons|Pulse Weapon'''‡''']]
*'''Any''' means literally any. The [[Pulse Weapon]] type does not have to match up with your desired [[Ambuscade Weapons]]. For example, one could use [[Ephemeron]] to create [[Gokotai]].
* Total Hallmark milestone rewards grant an [[File:A. Voucher- Weapon icon.png{{!}}23px{{!}}link=]] [[Ambuscade Voucher: Weapon]] as well five(5) of each of the above upgrade materials (not including Pulse Weapon), allowing you to score a complimentary Kaja Weapon by collecting '''5,300 Hallmarks''', or (if you have a Pulse Weapon) a fully-upgraded Ambuscade Weapon by '''9,600 Hallmarks''', per monthly reset.
* Beyond the one complimentary item each month, additional Weapon Vouchers and upgrade materials may be purchased using Hallmarks or Gallantry. The full cost per weapon including the Weapon Voucher and upgrade materials comes to '''15,000 Hallmarks''' ''or'' '''48,000 Gallantry'''.

|Notes=
*Only the '''Bozzetto Consul''' needs to be defeated in order to win. It and a '''Sabotender Dulce''' are present initially upon entry.
*The '''Bozzetto Consul''' will summon additional Antica (varying with difficulty) approximately every 15~120 seconds.
:*Adds ''must'' be defeated in order to win, even if done so after the '''Bozzetto Consul''' is.
:*Adds are likely called at certain HP percentages with a max wait between summoning of a minute. If the Consul's HP is rapidly dropping it will chain summon adds. {{verification}}.
:*Defeating the summoned adds will significantly increase the attack of the '''Bozzetto Consul''' with each one defeated.
:*Adds will use their job corresponding {{icon|sp}} 1-Hours near at the start of a fight.
:*Adds are called in the order of WAR → RNG → BLM → THF (E+) → PLD (N+)
:*Adds are immune to sleep.
*The '''Sabotender Dulce''' will flee around the battlefield and will eventually run into range to do needles move, the damage being dependent on the difficulty chosen:
::

:*While the '''Sabotender Dulce''' is out of range, the '''Bozetto Consul''' will take less damage.
::*[[Tomahawk]] will help to decrease this effect.
:*The '''Sabotender Dulce''' itself is weak, but takes -99% AoE damage.
::*Using [[Konzen-ittai]] will cause the following WS to miss.
:*Adds will not be summoned after the '''Sabotender Dulce''' is defeated. The message ''"The call goes unheeded!"'' will be displayed.

*'''All Antica use the following TP Moves''':
:*'''Jamming Wave''': {{magical}} {{wind}} (AoE) Damage and Silence.
:*'''Magnetite Cloud''': {{breath}} {{earth}} (Conal) Damage and Gravity.
:*'''Sandstorm''': {{magical}} {{dark}} (AoE) Inflicts Blind.
:*'''Sand Shield'''; {{buff}} Gains Defense Bonus.
:*'''Sand Trap''': {{earth}} (AoE) Damage, Petrification, and resets Enmity.
:*'''Sand Veil''': {{buff}} Gains Evasion Bonus.
:*'''Shoulder Slam''': {{physical}} Damage and Knockback.
:*'''Spikeball''': {{physical}} Damage and Poison.

'''Bozzetto Consul''':
*Uses {{icon|sp}} '''[[Mighty Strikes]]'''.
*Takes double damage while summoning adds.
*Resists {{dark}} and {{earth}}.
*Immune to Bind and Gravity.
*Additionally has the following nonstandard and enhanced version moves:
:*'''Sand Rush''' - {{physical}} (AoE) High damage. Absorbable via 3 [[Copy Image|shadows]].
::*This move was previously known as '''Sodstorm''' when first introduced in May 2017.
:*'''Fettering Tackle''': {{physical}} High Damage and Knock Back.
::*Sand Rush and Fettering Tackle will inflict heavy damage to players, especially while the Consul has [[Mighty Strikes]] active.
:::*Using an enhanced [[Geo-Wilt]] and/or moves like [[Sentinel's Scherzo]] are recommended.
:*'''Thornball''': {{physical}} Damage, Paralysis, and Poison.
:*'''Sand Shroud''': {{buff}} Gains Evasion Bonus.

'''Sabotender Dulce''':
*Weakest to {{ice}} and {{dark}} elements.

'''Bozzetto Stalwart'''
*Uses {{icon|sp}} '''[[Mighty Strikes]]'''.

'''Bozzetto Hunter'''
*Uses {{icon|sp}} '''[[Eagle Eye Shot]]'''.
:*Uses this 1-Hour soon after damaging a Hunter.
::*Thus AoEing will cause each Hunter to use Eagle Eye Shot which may cause significant damage.

'''Bozzetto Magister'''
*Uses {{icon|sp}} '''[[Manafont]]'''.

'''Bozzetto Stalker'''
*Uses {{icon|sp}} '''[[Perfect Dodge]]'''.

'''Bozzetto Valiant'''
*Uses {{icon|sp}} '''[[Invincible]]'''.

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''':
* TANK, GEO, COR (or DD), SCH/WHM, BLM x2
* COR provides Wizard's and Warlock's rolls.
* Indi-Acumen, Entrust (onto SCH) Indi-Malaise, Geo-Focus (after pull). Malaise may or may not proc due to the Cactuar running very quickly in and out of range. Geo bubble is mainly to help absorb needles (but it should not go off if your group is prepared).
* Tank runs in to pull main boss at center; party follows; GEO casts Geo-Focus on self for quick setup. SCH opens with Gravitation and BLMs should be able to take out the Cactuar in a single volley of Elemental Sealed Death (from each BLM). Manawall/Convert if you need to and finish off the Cactuar if you got unlucky with resists. Done right, there should be no adds, or at worst just a single set of adds.
* Tank should grab boss (and any adds) to zone-in corner and mages should stand at typical backline job distance.
* GEO should keep Indi-Acumen and now use Geo-Malaise. If there are adds, take them out with AoE spells.
* For quick finish, have SCH use SP and create Fragmentation to burst wind-based spells.
* For slower finish (no SP), have COR self-SC (or SC w/ tank) when SCH's stratagems are down.
* SCH/WHM should help tank stay un-enfeebled.

'''Difficult''':

'''Normal''':
* Players can just bum rush the '''Bozzetto Consul''' and kill him first so his attack isn't raised, then defeat the adds to clear this Ambuscade. Save the THF ('''Stalker''') and PLD ('''Valiant''') for last. You can ignore the '''Cactuar''' entirely. A tank to hold the adds becomes preferable here. Even '''Valaineral''' trust can hold the adds long enough for a solid DD or two to skillchain down the '''Consul''', then move to the adds. Just have party leader swap to them for a moment so he gains hate on them all.

'''Easy''':
* Players can just bum rush the '''Bozzetto Consul''' and kill him first so his attack isn't raised, then defeat the adds to clear this Ambuscade. You can ignore the '''Cactuar''' entirely.

'''Very Easy''':
* Players can just bum rush the '''Bozzetto Consul''' and kill him first so his attack isn't raised, then defeat the adds to clear this Ambuscade. You can ignore the '''Cactuar''' entirely.

'''Key Item Suggestions''':
* [[Quicksand Caves]] [[UNM]] warp.
* [[Proto-Waypoint]] warp to [[Quicksand Caves]].
* [[Voidwatch]] warp to [[Quicksand Caves]], enter and run down the ramp.
* [[Western Altepa Desert]] [[UNM]] warp. Go down the ramp into the ruins and follow the caves. Enemies there occasionally spawn high enough.

*{{Icon|COR}} '''COR''': Crooked Chaos, and Monks rolls. DDs wont need to worry about SB beyond TPing in SB II thanks to Monks.
*{{Icon|BRD}} '''BRD''': March, Minuet, Minuet, Madrigal. {{color|wind|Wind Threnody}} the Corse.
*{{Icon|BLU}} '''BLU''': A good Club, and magic accuracy recast set. Set {{color|wind|Feather Tickle}} and {{color|wind|Reaving Wind.}} Advisable to also set Battery Charge and Retinal Glare.
*{{Icon|WHM}} '''WHM''': {{color|wind|Silence}} the Corse. Auspice, Barblind, Dia, and keep Banish effect active.
*{{Icon|PLD}} '''PLD''': Cap block rate with a shield that isn't Ochain, provide Holy Circle.
'''Strategy''':
*1) MNK engages the mob, and gets it down to 90%. Adds then spawn. BLU uses [[Feather Tickle]] and [[Reaving Wind]].
**Do not skillchain past this point as it will heal the mob. So victory smite between the [[Savage Blade]] and [[Black Halo]]s.
*2) Party should all defeat one single Bozetto Warder. This seems to prevent the usage of [[Blood Weapon]]/[[Souleater]] going off and massacring the party. We had an issue with this regularly, and it completely stopped happening from then on.
**PLD should get AoE hate on the Warders with Banishga and then a JA or something of the sort. Despite being ambuscade, enmity is a bit odd with these after initially spawning and they will run around beating people without some intervention.
*3) Party then TPs on the Warders and WSes the Pishogue.
**BLU should [[Black Halo]] as well, but use Feather or Reaving if it is up before WSing.
*4) When the second round of adds spawns around 35%, defeat one just to be safe, and then continue until the fight ends.

*[[Wind Threnody]] will likely affect the success rate of Reaving Feathers. Magic accuracy food isn't required at all when it is on for a well geared BLU, but you will resist regularly without either active.
**This is with Maxentius and Thibron as a ML 30+ BLU. So that should put you in the ballpark for how to anchor your magic accuracy requirements. If you need to, [[Sakpata's Sword]] is a solid choice to offhand to solve any issues.

The fight should take around 5.5 to 9 or so minutes (including buffing) depending on the group.

*'''MNK''' 4 Step SC's, Be prepared to turn to wait for BLU and SMN to pull down the TP of the Corse. Try to not It push under 38%-/+ so Bloody Weapon is not active at the time of the pops of the second set of Skeletons. Once both sets of skeletons are done it is just managing the TP with the team to victory.
*'''Blu''' Reaving Wind, Feather Tickle Top priority, Carcharian Verve, Help kill the skeletons when popped
*'''GEO''' Attack, Frailty, Help heal, and any other debuff you can land helps.
*'''BRD''' Minuet/Attack/ACC songs Ballads on Mages, Help Heal, and any other debuff you can land help. You can also Magic Finale the ice spikes.
*'''SCH''' Pro/Shell, Regen V, Refresh, Phlanax, Adloquium, Stoneskin Reapply whenever needed, Removed Blinds and stat down effects and Heal
*'''SMN''' Apogee: Ecliptic Howl, Ecliptic Growl, Then Hastaga II, Crystal Blessing. Once engaged Mewing Lullaby in conjunction with Blu's TP down spells, Can use Shock Squall to stun all the skeletons after the initial pop and support with Whispering Wind as the skeletons go down reset yourself up for Mewing Lullaby.

:*When the skeletons pop they have what seems to be a very strong enmity lock on specific party members, so be away you may have to be vigilant with healing on mages until they are eliminated. It isn't hard to manage but you can have bad luck SC/MB on anyone and it lights out. As long as it wasn't during a Bloody Weapon you should be able to recover and still win.

Solo: Prepare for AoE nukes and either bring a trust healer that outranges the AoE silence ([[BGWiki:Trusts#Yoran-Oran (UC)|Yoran-Oran]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Apururu|Apururu]]), or uses AoE healing job abilities ([[BGWiki:Trusts#Ingrid II|Ingrid II]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Iroha II|Iroha II]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Arciela|Arciela]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Lilisette |Lilisette I/II]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Selh'teus|Selh'teus]]). Once its HP is below 80% it may start using Hecatomb Macabre which is avoidable. Once you're charmed it will despawn your Trusts, then you have powerful buffs for 3 minutes to try to defeat it.

'''Boss States'''
:*'''Normal''': Boss can be damaged normally with no cause for alarm. The Boss starts in this State and returns to it after using a TP move associated to the Other States.
:*'''Charging Up''': Assumedly Charges '''Atramentous Libations''' or '''Atramentous Oblation'''
:*'''Boiling Over''': Gains an aura that grants players a regain effect. Any damage taken by the boss after this move will increase the damage of '''Nether Castigation''', '''Atramentous Libations''' or '''Atramentous Oblation'''
:*'''Miasma''': Boss gains a weak Dread Spikes effect. You have about 5~15 seconds to deal enough damage to Force him to switch modes before he uses '''Eisenschneider'''
:* When the Boss uses '''Charging Up''' It will change its state and the chat log will be accompanied by one of the following Messages:
::* The Boss begins '''charging up'''. (Entering Charging State)
::* The Boss's rage is beginning to '''boil over'''. (Entering Boiling Over State)
::* The Boss begins to emit a noxious '''miasma'''. (Entering Miasma State)
::* The Boss's '''miasma''' dissipates but is rage is beginning to '''boil over'''. (Boiling Over State)
:::* It's worth noting that if you throw 1 too many Weapon Skills to drop the Miasma state you may overcharge the Boiling Over State.

'''Uses the following TP Moves''':
:*'''Charging Up''': Initiates a State Change from '''Normal''' to '''Charging Up''', '''Boiling Over''' or '''Miasma'''.
:*'''Atramentous Libations''': 20' AoE Drain . Damage may vary depending on damage received during the "Charging Up State".
::*This is a similar mechanic to [[Glassy Thinker]]'s "Pain Sync".
:*'''Atramentous Oblation''': Dispels (possible Abosrbs?) 1 Buff (20' AoE), Damage may vary depending on damage received during the "Charging Up State".
:*'''Nether Castigation''': 20' AoE damage; amount of damage based on damage received after "Boiling Over state".
:*'''Eisenschneider''' :30' K.O Ability. Requires Boss to be in "Miasma state"
::*Bonuses like [[Migawari: Ichi]] will not stop this from inflicting KO.
::*Players may use /heal in order to convert this move to damage instead.
:*'''Infernal Bulwark''': Stoneskin (can be dispelled)
:*'''Noahionto''' : Inflicts significant AoE {{dark}} dark damage based off of the damage the enemy has received. Used at low HP % (<5% HP on Normal)
:*'''Dread Spikes''': Casts AoE Dread Spikes at low HP.
|Notes=
'''Bozzetto Charger''':
*Absorbs damage while readying TP moves.
:*Absorbing damage will increase the power of the Charger's '''Scintillant Lance'''.
*Uses the following TP Moves:
:*'''Scintillant Lance''': 20' Conal {{magical}} {{light}} damage.
:*'''Grace of Hera''': Restores HP and removes status ailments; can be forced by using about 4 or more debuffs

|Very Difficult Strat=
Tank DD BRD/WHM + 3 (SMN or BST or any form of non-pet DD)
:* Tank MUST pull to zone-in spot!
:* The tanks holds both the boss and charger; DD focuses on charger. During this time BRD should just use songs that help DD produce fast/high damage. DD should avoid healing the charger during TP moves (i.e. do not WS during charger's TP moves). BRD should Elegy, Dia II, Threnody, and Requiem -- this will force Grace of Hera as opposed to damage TP moves
:* During boss phase, DD should stop all WS damage if they see the "charging" message. If you bring lots of DD, it may be a good idea to pull all but one DD off the boss and use white damage to push the boss into '''Atramentous Libations.''' Once this TP move is used, all DD can continue to dish out damage. BRD should always maintain Hymnus on all DDs and the tank when charging/boil/miasma messages appear.
:* Upon seeing the "boiling" message, all damage must stop immediately. Use Dia at maximum casting distance to push the boss into a TP move ('''Nether Castigation'''). Once this TP move is used, return to regular attack mode and continue to watch out for any charging/boiling/miasma messages.
:* If the "miasma" message appears, everyone should dump TP / use SC's to dish out high damage and force the boss back into boiling mode (might need to set TP order to prevent damage overspill into "boiling" phase). Once TP is dumped, everyone run far away. Basically, if the tank is holding near the zone-in location, then anywhere BEHIND farthest pillar is safe. If the tank dies, immediately put Hymnus back on and let the tank get hate before continuing damage or healing. There is a fairly long delay between the "miasma" message and K.O. move (if it does go off) so only the tank is ever really in danger of dieing.
:* BRD should always keep Ballad III, and Hymnus on the tank since boss will Aspir (up to Aspir III). No healer is really needed aside from Curaga II from BRD if DDs get hit with AOE.
:* As the boss gets lower in HP, it will often start "charging" and immediately switch to "boiling" rather frequently. Watch those trigger-happy WS fingers! It will also cast '''Death Spikes''' on a very regular basis, so make sure DDs turn and dispel/finale the spikes.
:* The boss can cast other spells (both single and aoe form) such as Stun and Bio.

|Difficult Strat=

|Normal Strat=
Tank (not required), 2 DDs, 1 BRD/WHM
:* Buff DPS with Haste Songs and any additional Attack songs you can get
:* Buff tank with Haste Songs and Ballad
:* Buff BRD with either your highest Ballad or multiple Ballads if possible
:* Your Bard and Tank should be able to heal the group assuming you don't get floored from Weapon Skilling at the wrong time
:* Doesn't really matter where the boss is fought though the starting corner is as good a place as any.
:* Focus the Horse first. If he readies a TP move wait till he throws out his next Auto-Attack before resuming damage. If you want you can save your TP for right after he uses a TP move and throws his 1st Auto. That is a pretty safe window.
:* When fighting the Dullahan you'll want to have the tank face them towards a wall to minimize knock back. The tank needs ballad to avoid running out of MP. The Boss' Aspir spells will drain out the MP otherwise.
:* DPS can ideally setup a skillchain and goto town until a Charging Up is used.
::* Once he charges up turn around.
:::* If its Miasma continue Damage and have each DPS (1 at a Time) use a Weaponskill to force him to switch to Boil Over
:::* If its anything else back off to 20' and have the tank just Auto-Attack the boss till it uses its TP move
:* BRD/WHM should be healing from as far back as possible (Max Heal distance to target is 21.5')
:* Notes: If you don't have a tank then during Charge Ups that are not miasma the BRD/WHM can just spam Dia while the DPS have their back turned.
:* Notes: The Benefit of this 3/4-man strat is you have room for a few extra jobs to pad things out. Bring a Healer or another Buffer. I'd caution against stacking too many DPS as there is more mishaps that can go wrong with more DPS. That being said technically if all DPS are paying attention the fight should go quicker.
:* Notes: You can scale this up to Difficult if you are wiping the floor with the moves or scale it down to Easy if your having trouble. Mechanics don't change just the mobs stats do.
:* Strategy is from the 2024-10-12 iteration of this fight.

|Very Difficult Strat=
PLD (with Reforged Relic +2/3), BRD/BLM, SCH (or WHM), COR x3.
The name of the game is [[Quick Draw|Earth Shot]] and [[Savage Blade]]. Rolls are [[Warlock's Roll|Warlock]], [[Wizard's Roll|Wizard's]], [[Fighter's Roll|Fighter's]], [[Chaos Roll|Chaos]], [[Samurai Roll|Samurai]] and [[Tactician's Roll|Tactician's]]. Scholar should throw in Regain, Barthunder and [[Sandstorm]]. When ready, Paladin goes in and [[Shield Bash]]es [[Ramuh]] to knock off Shock Spikes. Unload into Ramuh with blades and earth shot as he becomes more deadly and TP move happy as his health decreases. Once he's fallen, the Doppleganger will appear with a free avatar in one of the four corners. One Corsair should [[Random Deal]] at this moment, while the Bard needs to run up and [[Elemental Seal]] [[Lullaby]] to remove him from the picture temporarily. The avatar should be dealt with immediately, then a coordinated set of Earth Shots vs. the Doppleganger should put him down ending the fight. If you don't move fast enough from the first Earth Shot to their demise, they will Astral Flow and pull out either [[Odin]] or [[Alexander]], the former will one-shot anyone not healing, the second extends the fight possibly allowing more avatars to appear and making victory impossible.

If [[Shiva]] shows up at any time, reset the fight.

Alternatively, bring a BLU with Absolute Terror. Have them use it on the Summoner right before you wake him up. Assuming your DPS are decently geared he'll die before he can do anything at all.

|Difficult Strat=

|Normal Strat=
DPS (Ambu +2 gear is fine, Pulse or better weapon preferred), Yoran-Oran, BLU (For Osmosis) 
The fight starts off vs [[Bozzetto Ramuh]] who casts [[Lightning Armor]] (Shock Spikes) on himself. This is fairly potent. Make sure you have decent Magic Evasion or a way to dispel these or your gonna have a long fight ahead of you. BLU Osmosis seemed to work. Remove the spikes and goto Town on [[Bozzetto Ramuh]]. At some point he'll SP (which I'm assuming is akin to [[Astral Conduit]] he will spam [[Volt Strike]] which stuns for a bit. He may Sprinkle in some [[Stunga]]s or a [[Thunderspark]]'s. The latter of those is only single Target so only 1 person will end up getting paralyzed.

After you dealt with [[Bozzetto Ramuh]] the [[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] Summoner will spawn and summon up 3 avatars over time. If you have enough DPS you can kill each one one at a time. If not you may end up with Wrangling 2-3 mobs at a time. Upon Summoning the last Avatar the [[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] will join the fight as well.

With it's 3 WS's he will form some Skillchains which can drop a DPS or healer into Low HP fairly quickly. At some point he will summon [[Alexander]] or [[Odin]] after he [[Astral Flow]]s. [[Alexander]] Will lengthen the fight with [[Perfect Defense]] where the [[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] will take reduced damage (most hits are reduced down to 1-2 damage some WS's hit for 100). [[Odin]] will use [[Zantetsuken]] which you can /heal through if you disengauge. There are accounts of being able to outrun its range though I have not tried this as resting is far easier. After the
[[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] and all summoned Avatars are dead the fight ends.
 
|Easy Strat=
Soloable with Trusts and Ambuscade NQ gear. Avoid Trust BLMs or ones that favor Light-based skillchains which may heal the avatars. 
Similar to harder difficulties.
[[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] Summoned 1 elemental avatar, and immediately joined the fight. Summoned [[Alexander]] later in the fight.
 
|Very Easy Strat=
Soloable with Trusts and Ambuscade NQ gear. Avoid Trust BLMs or ones that favor Light-based skillchains which may heal the avatars.

|Very Difficult Strat=
'''DDing RUN, DDing COR, BRD, GEO, WHM, and any DD'''

Buffs: Barfira, {{color|water|Unda}} Vallianced, March, Fire Carol, Madrigal, Chaos/Sam roll, Frailty, Fury, and entrust w/e. Could use wilt to grant the RUN more offensive gearing flexibility.

Pull to the corner, take out the Enceladus as quickly as possible. Then the Fistfighter → Fistfighter → Marshal → Swiftshooter → Trainer.

* '''Magic Burst Strats'''

'''RUN tank, Healer (SCH or WHM), DPS1 and DPS2, BLM, Buffer'''

Standard: Protect, Shell, Regen 5 (if Healer is SCH), Barfira

DPS 1 and DPS 2 focus on Distortion and Darkness Chains (maybe reverberation)

Have the BLM and maybe Buffer (GEO) bursting Water on the magic bursts. These guys have no Water Resist. BLM was hitting for 70k on water 6 with an '''[[Ea_Attire_Set|Ea NQ Bursting]]''' set.

Notes: Using a NIN as one of your DPS is huge but not required. They have access to Blade: Teki a Hybrid Water WS. It should work wonders here. Try to work that into a skillchain if you have a NIN in the group.

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''':
DD, DD, {{Icon|PUP|small}} PUP, {{Icon|COR|small}} COR,{{Icon|BRD|small}} BRD, {{Icon|WHM|small}} WHM

'''Buffs''': 
'''WHM''': Barpara, Barblizzard, Regen IVga, and standard buffs otherwise.

'''COR''': Chaos and Samurai.

'''BRD''': March X2, Minuet, Madrigal.

'''PUP''': Sub WAR and use a standard Valoredge frame setup with strobe and flashbulb, optic fibers, repair kit, and other standard flare. The puppet is not in any danger ever. Master wears no pet oriented gear.

'''Strategy''': 

PUP sends the automaton after the Ravager (WAR) to hold it and start the fight. They then immediately provoke the Deathbringer (DRK) and separate it to remove the aura. I favored using a few counter pieces such as Mpaca body, Bathy Choker R15, and Cryptic earring over a offense oriented DT set. As the Deathbringer rapidly attacks with low damage club and you can counter them up as a PUP. The PUP shouldn't be in any danger of dying with Regen on as the Deathbringer has weak attacks. 
The PUP should then solo multistep SC. I'm partial to String Pummel to Howling Fist to double Victory Smite for lights.

The rest of the party goes after the Don. Then the Incanter, which doesn't need to be slept as it just wakes up. Then the Ravager. Unless there are some unlucky stuns or paralyze procs then the PUP should be able to finish or nearly finish their Deathbringer.

The WHM should stand out of range of AoE range of and to die from the Baby Bomber once or twice as the Don rapidly eats the floor. Keep reraise on and get back up.

That's it. Simple month. Rinse and repeat.
-----
Lionheart RUN x2, COR/WAR, GEO/WHM, BRD/WHM, WHM or g

Buffs: March x2, madrigal x2, Chaos/Sam. Fury/frailty on RUN 1, entrust frailty on RUN 2.

1) RUN 1 goes in and pull Don to starting corner, RUN 2 pulls Ravager to far left corner. COR provoke pulls Deathbringer to far right corner. BRD sleeps Incanter. WHM or RDM cast reraise, silence Don then position themselves in the middle of battle field, away from the other members. Geo entrust frailty on RUN 2 after everyone position themselves.

2) RUN 1 and RUN 2 use battuta and zerg Don and Ravager. COR holds Deathbringer, WS with Savage Blade and cures himself with sangine blade. BRD move between the battlefield and cast stona, paralyna and blindna on RUN 2 and COR. GEO baby sits RUN 1 with cures, blindna and paralyna.

3) If bomb kills WHM or RDM, they must get up immediately and cast Reraise or Goddess's Hymnus on them again.

4) After Don and Ravager is dead, RUNs kill Deathbringer next and Incanter last.

Note: Clear time with setup above is about 4.5 min to 5 depending on buffs and support. RUN 2 can be replaced with a PLD, RUN 1 can be replaced with another DD using entrust Wilt, COR can be replaced with any DD with hate tool and PDT- set.
-----
DD, DD, {{Icon|RDM|small}} RDM, {{Icon|COR|small}} COR,{{Icon|BRD|small}} BRD, {{Icon|WHM|small}} WHM

'''Buffs''': 

'''RDM''': Haste II, Phalanx II, standard RDM stuff.

'''COR''': Crooked Cards Chaos Roll / Samurai Roll.

'''BRD''': Honor or Victory March / Minuet V / Minuet IV / Madrigal

'''WHM''': Barparalyzra / Barblizzara / Boost-Str / Regen IV-ga / Auspice

'''Strategy''': 
The Warrior and Dark Knight Goblins can be bound without aggroing the Don and Incanter. To do this, stand at maximum casting distance (typically hugging the wall) when casting Bind. As Red Mage, be certain you are using [[Spontaneity]] and [[Saboteur]] with Bind. Once one is successfully bound, move around the front without aggroing the Goblins to Bind the other. The group may then pull the Don and Incanter to the entrance.

Bard can Lullaby the Incanter while the rest of the group murders the Don. Dispel from [[Finale]] or [[Dark Shot]] is a must to remove the Don's [[Ice Spikes]]. [[Silence]] on the Don can help reduce its threat during SP. With proper DPS output, a group can kill the Don before the Furious Bozzetto Bomber spawns. The White Mage should still stand away from the group in case you are not fast enough.

Once the Don is dead, move on to the Incanter. If your Red Mage has properly controlled the Warrior and Dark Knights, they should still be bound. Incanter will melt. You can then choose either of the two remaining Goblins to gang up on. Once the third is dead, finish off the last one.

If your Red Mage fails to Bind the first Goblin without aggroing everything, all is not lost. Do not panic. Bring the Goblins to whichever is Bound so the Red Mage can Bind the second one with its brother. You can then continue the strategy above without any issues.

-----

'''Difficult and lower''':

TANK X2, BRD/WHM, WHM/BLM, DD X2

So long as the goblins are separated (removes aura), the tanks will hardly take damage when using -DT gear. Some Regen on the tanks before starting will but is not necessary (bring along Remedies, though). Each tank pulls the ravager and deathbringer to the wall near their respective spawning positions. The DDs should target the Don and provoke. WHM should ES Silence (although silence can land after ~3 attempts without ES). You may choose to not engage until the Don's spikes have been Finale'd but a good WHM (with helping BRD) should be able to keep paralyze off until the spikes are removed. This month seems to favor heavy-armor DDs but any well-geared pair of DDs should be able to take out the Don before silence wears off. WHM, BRD, and two DDs should form a square around the Don to prevent conal damage from hitting everyone. As soon as a bomber is spawned, WHM should be ready to Curaga IV (or higher). Solace, -DT gear, and SS all help.

Once the Don is dead, the party should then take down each add (fights should be very straightforward hereon out).

Tanks do not have to be PLD or RUN; in fact any DD with /RDM sub and phalanx on should be able to hold the two side goblins.
-----
Solo Red Mage Strategy for Difficult:

As of the April 2023 version of this fight, it is completely soloable (with trusts) by Red Mage.

Job: Red Mage / Ninja. This was done at Master Level 24.

Weapons: Naegling / Thibron

Trusts: Joachim, Ulmia, Monberaux (I did not pay him), Selh'teus, Qultada

Buffs: Haste 2, Phalanx, En-Whatever-Day-It-Is, Aquaveil, Temper 2, Refresh 3, Barblizzard, Barparalyze, Stoneskin, Blink, Gain-STR, Protect/Shell V. I did not buff any of the trusts. Ate Grape Daifuku.

After buffing, Spontaneity and Saboteur. Bind the rightmost Goblin from max distance. You should not aggro the others. If you do, it's fine, simply Bind the other Goblin and pull the Don away. Silence immediately, then Distract 3 and Dia 3. Press Savage Blade every time you have 1000+ TP. Position yourself within all of your trusts to soak the split damage from the Furious Bomber. Ideally Selh'teus will Rejuvenation, but you may need to help spot heal. You have 30 seconds between bombs to deal damage. The third bomb will be the Baby Bomber, just run away from it. Repeat the process, re-positioning after each Baby Bomber as needed. If Bind wears off the other Goblins, stop to re-apply. Once the Don is dead, pull whichever Goblin has the shorter remaining Bind duration and Dia 3, Distract 3, and kill it. Repeat with the final Goblin.

This strategy requires that you be very well-geared. TP set consisted of Malignance and R30 Bunzi pieces. Savage Blade set consisted of R25 Nyame and Empyrean +3.
-----
Solo RDM/NIN strategy for all difficulties:

You will need some "Enfeebling magic effect+" equipment for this strategy. This was tested to work with as little as +13% ([[Duelist's Torque +1]], [[Uk'uxkaj Boots]]) on VE.

1. Buff and summon trusts, taking care to use trusts who will stay in range (to avoid death from the Furious Bomber). For example, consider using [[Mihli Aliapoh]]/[[Kupipi]] instead of [[Cipher: Ygnas|Ygnas]]/[[Apururu (UC)]] as your healer.

2. Walk along the right wall until you reach casting range of the Bozetto Deathbringer. Activate [[Saboteur]].

3. [[Silence]] the Bozetto Deathbringer, then aggro the goblins. Bring the goblins back to the wall.

4. Activate [[Spontaneity]]. Cast [[Gravity II]] on both the Bozetto Deathbringer and Bozetto Ravager.

5. Begin making your way to the opposite corner of the arena by hugging the left/back walls, bringing the Don (and Incanter on VD) with you to the corner.

6. Once you've reached the corner, Silence the Don (and Incanter on VD), then begin killing. If you were quick, you might still have Saboteur up to extend the Silence durations.

By applying a heavy Gravity to the adds and running sufficiently far away, they will eventually (in 30-40 seconds) completely deaggro and return to their starting locations. Silencing the Deathbringer is required because he will not deaggro if he can still cast on you, regardless of whether he's out of casting range. This may also work with [[Bind]], but due to Bind's highly unreliable duration, Gravity is preferred.

Once the Don and Incanter are dealt with, you can pick off the Deathbringer/Ravager individually at your leisure.

*<s>Keep HP of both mobs at similar percentages to avoid typical Iron Giant TP moves. Instead, they will spam Cyclone Turbine (aoe dispel + damage).</s> This was an old strategy that is no longer as reliable as of the Nov 2022 Patch that limits physical and magical damage to 33% for both Giants when both are active. Creating a 15% HP difference between both Giants will deactivate one. Upon deactivation all damage dealt is reduced to 0 and is given a regen effect.
*When Blazenought is deactivated, Frostnought takes 300% physical damage taken, up to 600% after "the magical energies dissipate" message appears.
*When Frostnought is deactivated, Blazenought takes 300% magical damage taken, up to 600% after "the magical energies dissipate" message appears.
*'''The giants use the following TP moves:'''
**When both giants are active:
***Cyclone Turbine: Area of effect damage, dispel's 3 buffs, <20 range
**Blazenought only
***Big Seismic Impact: AoE Slow, Terrorize, high damage, hate reset
***Fire Arm Cannon: AoE fire damage, Max HP/Max MP down
***Eradicator: AoE damage, weakness, <20 range
**Frostnought only
***Ice Incinerator: Conal fire damage, burn
***Scapula Beam: AoE damage, all stats down
***Ballistic Double Kick: Conal damage, hate reset, Encumbrance

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''': Ranged Setup: RUN, COR, COR, BRD, WHM, GEO.

Two shooty boys, one doing Last Stand on Frostnought and the other doing Leaden Salute on Blazenought. (Which is weird because the attempt prior, the magic and physical resists of both were reversed?)

Keeping them similar HP negated ALL of the mechanics. The two only spammed Cyclone Turbine the entire time. No Eradicator. No chat messages. No two-hours. No blizzaga. No invulnerable. No regens. Nothing.

Cyclone Turbine over and over. Despite the RUN being buffless the entire time, it was pretty non-threatening.

The problem? It took 15 minutes and our COR's are geared to the teeth with full REMA buffs from the BRD and GEO.

If the intended method of doing this is keep them close in HP, then that leads to unending Dispel spam, then melee is absolutely not an option. Even in full m.eva gear, it would be a matter of seconds before you lose every buff you have.

|Very Difficult Strat=

Tested last night with this setup, 6 minute clears
Setup: PLD/BLU RNG/WAR RNG/WAR COR/RNG BRD/RDM WHM/SCH

Buffs:
COR: SAM / Chaos
BRD: Honor March / Archer Prelude / Minuet x2
WHM: Barstonra / Barpetra

Strategy:
Party move 20+ from start and always stay 20.1+ from all three. PLD pulls them to start and faces them to party.

PLD turns away on: Stone Dance, Petrifaction, Boulder Dance, and Raqs Baladi Dance.
Kill order: Freyja > Skathi > Frigg
Dia II followed up with light shot x2
Just before Freyja goes down PLD uses Fealty.

*'''Alternate Setup''': Tank, CORx2 (or COR, RNG), BRD/WHM, WHM, PUP

Samurai / Chaos rolls, and Tactician / Hunter if using second COR. Honor March, Minuet x2, Archer's Prelude (or second Minuet if CORx2 and only 3 songs available). Scherzo on tank.

PUP tanks Frigg far away while tank pulls to where party zones in. Tank turns during gaze moves, and faces Freyja and Skathi during any Disregard moves. BRD prioritizes Poisona if tank misses turning or facing a special move while WHM prioritizes Stona. Kill Freyja, then Skathi, and finally Frigg (let the puppet tank Frigg). As long as no one casts a debuff directly on Freyja (causing Draw-in), and the tank can at least avoid Doom (face target during Imparing Disregard), this should be a very easy battle.

::Note1: Each target can absorb a specific element. i.e., do not create a light skill chain on the fire, lightning, and wind Mamool
::Note2: Recommended to silence first 4 Mamool and leave the other 2 unsilenced to reduce risk of death from TP attacks. Paralyze and addle 2 make the spell casters relatively harmless.
::Note3: Silencing a Mamool Ja before it has used [[Manafont]] can cause it to use [[Mijin Gakure]] for high damage.
::Note4: RDM alternatively should sub SCH to [[Manifestation]] + [[Sleep II]], and use Blink to avoid [[Hurl Anathema]]

|Difficult Strat=

|Easy Strat= Solo NIN with trusts of WHMx2, AATT, BRD, RDM. AATT can keep them slept for a small while at least. Then just skillchain to death avoiding element they absorb while keeping shadows up. Mijin Gakure will cause issues if they decide to use so I tried to get a good skillchain off when a mob is low on health.

*High defense and evasion.
*Posses a high -DT effect. This effect is reduced each time an aura from one of the other Mamools is removed.
*Possesses all [[Ninjutsu]] spells (Including Utsusemi: San).
*If the player with hate runs out of range the Autarch will draw them in.
*Uses the following TP Moves:
:*'''Decussate''': AoE TP move (absorbed by 2 shadows)
:*'''Miasma''': AoE Poison TP move (removes shadows) and causes Plague (MP/TP drain)
:*'''Tyranic Blare''': Conal TP move (absorbs up to 5 shadows)
:*'''Hemotoxin Wheel''': Single Target ranged multi-hit TP move, deals heavy damage.
::*Autarch's counter move to magic, used on the player casting magic against it.
:::*This includes [[Geomancy]] and magical weapon skills, but excludes en-damage, spikes, runes etc.
::*Can Charm
:*'''[[Mijin Gakure]]''': AoE {{magical}} which is capable of doing upwards of 99,999 damage to players.
::*[[Mijin Gakure]] will be used after the Autarch performs the elemental Ninjutsu wheel. ({{icon|fire|nin}} Katon → {{icon|water|nin}} → {{icon|thunder|nin}} → {{icon|earth|nin}} → {{icon|wind|nin}} → {{icon|ice|nin}} Hyoton)
:::*The wheel is performed at 75% → 50% → 25% → 15/10%
:::*The Autarch will not skip a cycle if it's HP drops off below another tier and then DPS stops. Each hp % will be carried out.
::*You may prevent access to [[Mijin Gakure]] by removing the aura from the Autarch.
:::*Aura is removed via {{icon|light sc}} [[Light]] '''and/or''' {{icon|dark sc}} [[Dark]] skillchains.
:::*Each HP% interval of Autarch's elemental Ninjutsu Wheel phase requires '''progressively higher''' Light and/or Darkness Skillchains.

|Notes=
'''Other Mamools''':
*Each Mamool has an aura which may be removed by either critical hits or the correct form of skillchain damage.
**Critical hits are an easier, but less reliable way to remove auras.
***Every critical hit or skillchain regardless of the damage inflicted has a chance. Thus you may proc during [[Invincible]].
**Performing a skillchain while the enemy is not performing an action seems to increase the proc rate significantly. Time the closing weaponskill.
**Auras will return after a certain time if the monster is not defeated.
**Enemies will use their TP moves as a counter to being targeted with magic.
::*Includes all magic. White Magic, Black Magic, Songs, Ninjutsu, Blue Magic & Geomancy (Geo- spells).
::*Will not counter while their aura is down. {{verification}}
* '''Lancer''' (DRG) - Summons 3 wyvern pets upon engaging. All 3 wyverns despawn when Lancer is defeated.
**Uses Assault in response to magic. {{magical}} {{fire}} damage. Additional effect: silence and amnesia for 2 minutes.
**Aura is removed via {{icon|distortion sc}} [[Distortion]] skillchain.
* '''Protector''' (PLD) - Immune to sleep and uses [[Invincible]].
**TP Moves:
***Cyclonic Flame: Conal {{magical}} {{fire}} fire damage. Additional effect silence and amnesia.
***Blazing Angon: strong AoE {{magical}} {{fire}} fire damage.
**Aura is removed via {{icon|gravitation sc}} [[Gravitation]] skillchain.
* '''Moraingist''' (MNK/BRD) - Uses [[Hundred Fists]].
**Hydroshot will reset hate.
**Uses Fatal Flood in response to magic: {{magical}} {{water}} damage. Additional effect: 200/tic poison + pushback.
**Aura is removed via {{icon|fragmentation sc}} [[Fragmentation]] skillchain.
* '''Erudite''' (BLM/WHM) - Immune to silence. Low HP and defense, uses [[Manafont]].
**Favors [[Shock Spikes]].
**Has access to [[Elemental Seal]], Poisonga, Paralyga, Slowga, Blindga, Graviga, Sleepga II, and Bindga in addition to the usual high tier Elemental magic.
**Aura is removed via {{icon|fusion sc}} [[Fusion]] skillchain.
|Very Difficult Strat=
Setup: '''PLD, DD/NIN X2 or NIN X2, WHM, BRD, COR or GEO'''
** BRD buffs with March X2 and Minuet (or Madrigal if needed), COR or GEO does their usual buffs, WHM should buff Barvira and Barfira.
** RR items are very helpful and a must only for BRD (use /WHM).
** PLD pulls and waits for wyverns to pop to before spiking hate. BRD uses Horde for crowd control.
** Kill order should be PLD > DRG > MNK (fish) > BLM > Boss
** WHM needs to have continuous Poison until BLM is dead to counter Sleepga. Afflatus Solace helps for adds phase, but Misery could arguably be better for the boss to prevent TP/MP loss from Plague
** BRD should stay well away from PT during boss phase in case of Mijin so that they can RR and quickly horde the boss for recovery.
** Use Dark and Light skillchains to remove auras (use appropriate SC based on aura color).
*** If gear is too high level to remove auras without killing the mob, use 1 dmg weapons and do not weaponskill. You can proc to remove the aura with critical hits (even if they do 0 damage) and then swap weapons to kill when the aura is down.
** When the PLD mamool uses Invincible, hate can go crazy (most likely to go after BRD due to entrance buffs and horde) so use PDT set. PLD should stay put, while hate target should move into position for Cover.
** Do not cast on the boss when it is awake; feel free to cast if he is slept. (Not sure if this applies to BRD songs aside from Horde.) Before fighting the boss, sleep it and Finale it completely before engaging. Use appropriate Light/Dark SC based on aura as soon as he begins casting elemental wheel spells. If boss uses Mijin, BRD should RR and immediately Horde while WHM raises PT.

*Summons 1-4 '''Bozzetto Urchins''' throughout the fight.
:*'''Bozzetto Urchins''' roam the arena invisible, any Warble move summons them to appear and fight.
:*Urchins may be slept with Lullaby, but wake up every time the '''Breadwinner''' uses a Warble move.
:*Urchins will use Hundred Fists and Souleater.
:*Urchins are strong, but have low HP.
::*A good couple of weapon skills or a skillchain should be enough to take one out.

*If {{color|wind|silenced}}, the Breadwinner's range on any '''Warble''' will be reduced, thus calling in less, if any Urchins at all.
:*A WHM or GEO with [[Magic Accuracy Food|magic accuracy food]]/equipment is suggested for landing {{color|wind|silence}}.

'''Uses the following moves''':
*'''{{icon|SP}} Hundred Fists''': Used once at 50% health. Lasts 45 seconds.
:*'''Gale Spikes''': Become active during Hundred Fists. Reflects damage dealt and inflicts a potent Slow effect on any player who physically strikes the Breadwinner. The Slow effect is strong enough to overwite Haste II.
*'''Thrashing Assault''': {{physical}} 4-hit damage and Defense Down. Absorbed by 4 shadows.
*'''Drill Claw''': {{physical}} Damage, Max HP Down (-75%), and Max TP Down.
*'''Fire Meeble Warble''': AoE {{fire}} {{magical}} Damage, {{color|fire|Plague}} (-50 MP and -300 TP/tic), and {{color|fire|Burn}} (-50 HP/tic).
*'''Blizzard Meeble Warble''': AoE {{ice}} {{magical}} Damage, {{color|ice|Paralysis}}, and {{color|ice|Frost}} (-50 HP/tic).
*'''Aero Meeble Warble''': AoE {{wind}} {{magical}} Damage, {{color|wind|Silence}}, and {{color|wind|Choke}} (-50 HP/tic).

*'''Water Meeble Warble''': AoE {{water}} {{magical}} Damage, {{color|water|poison}}, and {{color|water|Drown}} (-50 HP/tic).
:*Any [[Barspell]] of the corresponding element will negate the damage and status effects of the Warbles.

|Notes=
*At some point in the battle, '''Bozetto Housemaker''' will run out from it's corner/edge, TP move the party, and run back (usually well below 50% on '''Bozzetto Breadwinner''')
:*Uses '''Earthshaker''', which deals 1000 damage per player hit by it (this includes pets, trusts, and luopans).
::*Ignores Damage Mitigation. Has a significant charge time so possible for everyone to escape its AoE. Also has an additional effect of paralyze (very potent).
:*Once the Housemaker comes out, it will continue to run back in at semi-regular intervals to use the same move. Speculated to be triggered based on time elapsed. {{Verification}}
:*'''Bozzetto Housemaker''' will always target whoever has the most "hate" from casting AoE Barspells. Have one person be dedicated to using Barspells on the party (best if done by support job using /WHM and not the main healer). Make sure to have someone else use Paralyna on this person because the paralyze effect is very potent.
*'''Bozzetto Urchins''' may be slept, but will wake up every time any ''Warble'' is used by the '''Bozzetto Breadwinner'''.
|Very Difficult Strat=
WHM/SCH, BRD, GEO (Idris), RUN/SAM, DDx2
*BRD Buffs, depending on what they have, honor and advancing march, mad x2.
*GEO uses Frailty and torpor depending on the DDs acc. Better to go with fury and two mads than torpor and min x1. Entrust wilt.
*RUN tanks and DDs, save battuta for the fisting.
:*If your RUN is not putting out damage then you should likely do D instead of VD.
:*A buffed and geared [[Epeolatry]] RUN should have little trouble doing 20k+ Resolutions.
*DDs fight. SCing is cool, but it is also fine to just go nuts and not care.
*WHM or GEO should keep the mob {{color|green|silenced}}. This is important to limit any adds.
*If not switching bar spells depending on monster ability keep barstonra up to block petrify from landing.
** Esuna or more conveniently Yagrush the debuffs off.
*The WHM needs to run if/when the Housekeeper runs at them. Damage from it's TP move is 1k per player in range.
**The target can't outrange it, but you can prevent it from hitting anyone else.
*Fight with well geared players should take ~4-6 minutes.

|Difficult Strat=
WHM/RDM, BRD/WHM, GEO/WHM, PLD/WAR, DD X2
* BRD uses Nightingale/Troubadour: March, Minuet X2, Madrigal for melees and Ballad X3 for mages at the start of the battle
** Once the battle begins, BRD's duty switches to Barspell duty.
** When Housekeeper comes, BRD runs away from the group.
* WHM should use Afflatus Misery and Esuna if Warble happens to land. Erase to remove HP-down from Drill Claw
* GEO should help w/ Erase and cures after GEO spells are done. Paralyna on BRD after Earthshaker? goes off. Good M.Acc set needed to silence the Breadwinner.
* Fight near the starting location; everyone should be in range of barspells.
* Only one person should focus on barspells so that your party knows who the Housekeeper will target.
* If Urchins pop, kill them fast; BRD should obviously sleep them.
* Sub-duties for BRD and GEO can be swapped if one person happens to be more capable of catching the Warble move better than the other.

|Notes=
'''Bozzetto Steward''':
:*has extremely potent Dia and elemental(?) DoT
:*Does not move
:*Will despawn over time (approx 1 minute)

'''Moogle''':
:*Does not move on Normal and lower difficulty; will roam on Difficult and Very Difficult
:*Provides an aura that will counter-act the Voyager Moogle's aura but also gives amnesia; aura only activated when boss uses SP
|Very Difficult Strat=
Setup: '''SMN x3, GEO, THF/PLD, RDM'''

Strategy:
*RDM gives Protect & Shell to the THF.
*GEO uses Bolster and Entrusts Indi-Languor on THF, Indi-Frailty on themselves and will use Geo-Torpor once the boss moogle is in position.
*SMN's have Ramuh's out and ready.
*THF will run in, Perfect Dodge, Flash & Sentinel. Moogles will move, if they remain close to the boss moogle in the center, then the THF will need to bring the boss moogle away from the helpers.
*RDM will Stymie Silence & Dia 3 then cast cures as needed.
*SMN will Astral Flow/Astral Conduit right out the gate at 100% HP once the RDM has debuffed. This is the only real way you can kill him if he uses Benediction as his first 1-hour, and even then it's not guaranteed.
*At 85% HP, THF will Larceny once the 1-hour animation goes off on the boss moogle unless it's Benediction. If it's Benediction, THF will need to Larceny if he uses Perfect Dodge, but you will most likely wipe unless your SMN's are stacked and can kill it before the aura becomes active and tick's twice. If the second 1-hour is Benediction, it's a wipe.

Alternate Strategy (not luck-based):
* '''PLD, BRD/WHM, COR X2, RNG (or COR), WHM'''
* Rolls: Hunter's and Monk's (for Subtle Blow), Samurai's and Chaos
* Barsilencera and Auspice (along with Subtle Blow will help reduce the chances of Invite Over)
* If the boss uses Invite Over, PLD should move a few steps away to avoid the spawn's aura.
* Boss uses SP at 85%, 65%, 45%, 25%, and 10% HP. Reduce boss HP down to 88%, 68%, etc. and stop all damage. Then look for a nearby moogle. Wait until that moogle starts moving and then drop the boss HP down to the trigger level. The idea is to make it to the safety moogles right as they are about to stop. (If the boss has an SP aura up and the moogle starts moving, there is a good chance death). No damage during this waiting phase so as to avoid AoE damage and Invite Over. Spam Curaga IV and Curaga V (WHM needs Eber's Pantaloons +1) to ensure that no one dies if the boss happens to use an AoE spell or ability that everyone can still survive. Using any type of bind effect on the moogle can be helpful.
* Save Rampart and Sacrosanctity for Chainspell; spam Finale to prevent the boss from self-curing.
* If anyone dies, stop damage just before the next SP trigger level and wait out the weakness before forcing the SP move on the boss. Do NOT get up near a steward or when an aura is out -- wait until nearby stewards despawn and/or SP auras to drop.
* This method is a sure way to win (unlike the SMN burn method) and does not require the use of SPs. Moreover, it is very easy on support jobs since only the PLD is ever in range of more dangerous moves such as Crys. Flare (high damage to non-tanks even with Shell V), Washtub and Atra. Lib. (stun/terrorize) followed by SP aura.
|Difficult Strat=
'''Tips:'''
*For D+ the regen moogles will roam around and not stay stationary.
*Boss will 2-hour at 85%, 65%, 45%, 25%, and 10% hp.
:*It helps to DPS during the periods the boss has not used 2-hour and you do not have amnesia.
*When boss uses 2-hour everyone should run to either regen moogle and stay close during the whole time amnesia is on.
:*It helps to slow down damage before a trigger point and pull boss close to a regen moogle, just depends how alert everyone in your party is.
*Keep using dispel to remove pro/shell on boss, this keeps boss from curing himself.
*The stewards will randomly spawn around the boss while you are DPSing.
:*Just move a bit away from them when that happens.
*Silence during 2-hour phase helps. D and VD can easily be melee burned.
|Normal Strat=
Solo-able on '''BLU/WAR''' using healer trusts that do not spread out (e.g. Koru-Moru, King of Hearts, Ferrous Coffin, etc).
:*Cherukiki and Apururu are usable as well, but they will require some additional management (by way of disengaging and re-engaging). Cherukiki can cast Silence
:*Required BLU spells include Silent Storm, Subduction, Blank Gaze (or Geist Wall), Magic Fruit, Occultation
:*Pull with Silent Storm and dispel with Blank Gaze (Geist Wall); keep Silence on to avoid Cure VI during Chainspell (can heal around 68k)
:*The gimmick is simple: when the boss uses Invite Over, move your party away from the Steward to avoid the potent DoT aura. When it uses its SP move (any one among those from the starter jobs), the boss itself will have the same aura (visible on the boss itself). At this point, move toward one of the two Moogles who themselves have a beneficial aura that will counteract the aura from the boss. Additionally, the Moogles will have an amnesia aura during this time. Avoid engaging the boss if possible so that it does not gain TP and use Invite Over during its SP (because you will be forced to run to the other Moogle and may possibly die, or your NPCs might die). Use Occultation and Magic Fruit to stay alive. If you need healing from your NPCs, engage to get healed, and then disengage until the boss' aura is down (otherwise they will waste MP trying to Erase and use healing spells to remove aura effects). Try to fight away from the Moogles so you will always have a safe spot during the boss' aura. On Normal, there should only be 4 (?) uses of SP.
:*Re-apply silence when necessary even at the cost of possibly losing one of the Moogles (but do not kill both of them). Best to fight along the outer walls and move in a circle when Stewards are spawned.
:*When/if you are out of MP (including NPCs), use Subduction and run to the opposite side of the arena to rest (or to simply stand still) to allow the NPCs to recover MP/HP.
:*Other NPCs that might work well: Selh'teus and Arciela as they both provide AoE healing; Selh'teus also replenishes MP

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''':

2023 Edition: MNK WHM BLU GEO BRD RUN

Geo-Malaise / Indi-Acumen, Honor March / Minuet x3, Light Carol I/II RUN, Diffusion Mighty Guard.

Pull everything to the start. Silence the Warlock and the Reaver to prevent Death, Sleepga, and Break. The Hecteyes pet uses annoying AoE debuffs, but will die in one AoE from the BLU. MNK focuses on the Crusader, using Formless Strikes when Invincible goes up. Be sure to WS from behind if the Crusader starts to glow in order to prevent Charm. BLU and GEO AoE everything else down. Entomb, Spectral Floe, Anvil Lightning, and Horde Lullaby to constantly lock down the Orcs. Geist Wall / Dispelga to remove buffs if desired. When only a couple mobs remain, single-target nukes from the BLU will do work. <4min clears if properly performed by a well-geared group.

Big note, the Tamer can use a charm move (Fanatic Dance) if the pet is killed. May want to be careful to kill the Tamer, then kill the pet.

Setup: TANK, BRD, HEALER, DDx3 (or 1 DD replaced by GEO or COR)

Strategy: Usual buffs at the start, with Light Carol and Light Carol II for the tank. On the pull, BRD should Night/Troub Horde Lullaby II the adds. Have the tank pull the the corner where everyone warps in. It is fine to keep the adds slept in the center (so the boss has less of a chance of buffing the adds). One DD has the sole job of attacking the boss from the back, and using a physical weaponskill every time the boss raises his aura. This aura is the start of the charm cycle (2 rounds of Veil of Chaos followed by Manic Dance). To prevent charm, simply remove the aura to reset the boss. The other DD(s) should focus on the adds. It is best to take out the Warlock first (please note that it can and will cast Death). An Elemental Seal'ed Silence should be more than enough to stop the Warlock from casting death. If possible, try to use a skillchain during the add's SP moves as they seem to take extra damage during their SP duration. The Reaver should be handled with care since it can cast Dread Spikes. The BRD should focus on debuffing the adds while waiting on sleep timers. Once the adds wake up and beeline for the tank debuffing can become a major pain because something like spikes buffs might be buried several layers deep. BRD should try to keep double march songs (Tenuto) full time to help with Finale recast timers. After all the adds are killed, go for the boss. The boss appears to use Invincible at fixed HP levels (75/50,25?) -- it is possible to still remove his aura even when weaponskilling for 0 damage; save TP and plan accordingly. (Avoid killing the boss before the adds; otherwise the adds will gain a large damage reduction)

'''Difficult''':

'''Normal''': For soloing, the VE strategy can be used but the fight will be very long. For PT setups, see the VD setup.

'''Easy''':

'''Very Easy''':

For BLU, this is very straightforward. AAEV, Cornelia, Arciela 1, Koru-Moru, and Apururu make a solid team of trusts. When soloing, however, it is best to kill the boss first. Sleep the adds with Dream Flower during the pull. Avoid using Aggressor, Warcry, and Berserk when attacking the boss so that AAEV can maintain hate (and never be charmed). Use Sudden Lunge when the boss uses Invincible. Once the boss is dead, the threat of charm is over. Attack the Warlock next and use Sudden Lunge during its SP or during spells. After the Warlock is dead, the only thing to worry about is the Pugilist using 100-fists. Simply Sudden Lunge to stun, disengage and sleep with Dream Flower. Your NPCs will auto-regen/refresh during this downtime. After about 30 seconds have passed, finish the Pugilist off for the win.

*If any [[Songs]], Rolls, buff [[Geomancy]] bubbles, or [[Avatar's Favor]] is on the party then the ''Bozzetto Pilferer'' and ''Scoundrels'' will use '''Essence Steal'''.
:* Debuff Geomancy bubbles will not trigger '''Essence Steal'''.
::* This is irrelevant as the Qiqirn's are immune to Geo debuffs. Dont bring GEO unless its all that person can play.
:*''' Essence Steal''' is move which heals them to full HP and levels them up every time they land a melee hit on a player or Trust.
::* If the Qiqirn are close together, they appear to synchronize this move whenever one lands a hit.
::* Level will cap eventually, but they will still heal to full HP when they land a melee hit on a player.
:::*Was hit rate floored in VE @ 1283 accuracy once it's level was capped.
::* [[Stoneskin]] does not prevent this from occurring. Getting hit for 0 still triggers this.
::* Absorbing melee swings with shadows does prevent this from occurring.
::* This effect was tested multiple times to only happen when a GEO COR or BRD buff is present when the player is hit. (Multiple self tests were made as well as testing [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cqb7FpkoXiY])
* The Bozetto Pilferer will drop a {{color|fire|Mine}} every 60 seconds which explodes after ~10 seconds if not defeated.
:* All sleeping Scoundrel's will proc blue [[File:Blue.png|16px|link=]] and wake up when the mine explodes unless you defeat the mine when it spawns.
::* When a mine explodes [[enmity|hate]] resets on all monsters. This will cause the adds to go after random players after waking up from sleep.
::*The mine's name tag may not display, or be untargetable, depending on camera angle and/or distance from it.
::*If the Pilferer is defeated while a mine is out then it will despawn without going off.

*'''Kibosh''' from the Bozetto Pilferer will inflict high {{physical}} damage.
:* '''Kibosh''' is absorbed by shadows.

**'''Cutpurse''' - Encumbers one random piece of equipment.
**'''Faze''' - gaze terror (~10 seconds).
**'''Sandspray''' - Conal blind, -100 accuracy {{verification}}.
**'''Dead Eye''' - Conal defense and magic defense down.
**Also uses '''HP Theft''', '''MP Theft''', and '''TP Theft''', which causes whomever is hit by it to lose half of their max HP, MP, or TP.
**'''Steal Attribute''' - Inflicts a single massive random stat down on the target which will leave them at -100.
**'''Steal Ability''' - Resets one ability at random.
**'''Steal Support''' - After leveling up, will remove all rolls and songs from target.
*Scoundrels will randomly use [[Perfect Dodge]] and like to spam '''Faze''' while running around. Mages should have their backs turned.

*RDM uses [[Saboteur]] and [[sleepga]]s to aggro.
*DDs go to town on the Pilferer and the RDM debuffs.
**DDs should defeat any bombs before they go off.
*Have the RDM and WHM turn their backs to avoid terror from adds waking up and spamming faze. That is about it.

*Switch target to bomb whenever possible.
*Take out Pilferer when Scoundrel is dead. Again, WHM should ready Cure V for Kibosh and let Apururu deal with status ailments.

*Immediately begins the battle with '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' which will grant the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' an {{color|ice|aura}}.

Will use the following [[:Category:Quadav#Abilities|'''TP moves''']]:
*'''Imperfect Shell Defense''': {{buff}} Grants a damage taken reduction -98%, attack increase, and removes status ailments and gains shell aura.
:*Disappears during each TP move or spell cast and reappears after one is completed.
::*During this window, the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' will take +200% damage.
*'''Wail of Gu'Dha''': 30' AoE {{magical}} draw-in, damage, '''curse''' (-75% HP/MP), and {{color|fire|plague}} (-50 TP/-500 MP /[[tic]])
:*Used once after the defeat of the '''Bozzetto Elementalist'''.
:*Players may run out of range of this ability and leave one player with hate in range to trigger it.
:*The curse affect will always land on players in range. Not even [[Asylum]] prevents this.
*'''Torment of Gu'Dha''': AoE {{magical}} {{earth}} damage, {{color|earth|petrify}}, and hate reset.
:*This move is used exclusively after the use of '''Wail of Gu'Dha'''.
:*The petrify effect lasts for ~45 seconds and is only able to be resisted via abilities such as [[Asylum]], [[Perfect Defense]], and [[Divine Caress]].

|Notes=
*Evasion and Defense of the additional Bozzetto Quadav are considerably low.
*Adds are immune to '''sle'''{{color|light|ep}} and {{color|earth|petrify}}.
*All adds use their corresponding {{icon|SP}} 1-hour abilities
*The '''Bozzetto Berserker''' possesses [[counter]] with an enhanced activation rate.
*After the appearance of the '''Bozzetto Elementalist''', the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' will begin casting Cure on them when the '''Elementalist''' is low on HP.
:*Players may use this as a method of defeating the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' without having to deal with the AoE petrify spam from '''Torment of Gu'Dha''' if they so choose. Every time the '''High Vicar''' casts Cure, his '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' buff will drop for a moment, making him a much softer target.
*On higher difficulties, after the second benediction, the effect of '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' changes to having a single weakness out of Slashing/Piercing/Blunt/Magic, selected randomly on each use. Using the correct damage type that targets this weakness will deal extreme damage with even weaker hits, commonly hitting 99,999 damage.
**The additional Quadavs that spawn will also use this ability and have their own weakness.
**Defeating the additional Quadavs '''after''' the second '''Benediction''' will '''not''' trigger the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' to use '''Torment of Gu'Dha''', allowing players to safely defeat the boss.
|Very Difficult Strat=
Generally the same as Very Easy, but with an additional phase.
*First Phase:
**Pull the boss and defeat the adds as usual, the boss's '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' will drop.
**DPS the boss down until the first benediction.
*Second Phase:
**Silence the '''Bozzetto Elementalist''' and take it down to half health or so, and use the casting windows to deal damage to the boss.
**Eventually the boss will '''Benediction''' again and the final two adds will spawn.
*Third Phase:
**Silence the adds and pull them over, search for their damage type weaknesses and defeat them.
**The '''Bozzetto Elementalist''' can now be safely taken down.
**Finally finish off the boss.
*Other notes:
**They don't hit particularly hard, any tank should generally be able to hold them relatively easily, and may even be optional.

|Difficult Strat=

|Normal Strat= Same general strategy as Very Easy.

|Easy Strat= Same general strategy as Very Easy.

|Very Easy Strat=
Engage the '''Bozetto High Vicar''', who will spawn two adds.
* Build TP on the '''Bozetto Berserker''', who should die pretty swiftly.
* Dump the TP on the '''Bozetto Devout''' in an attempt to skip his Invincible.
* Re-engage the '''Bozetto High Vicar''' and beat on him until he uses Benediction and summons the '''Bozzetto Elementalist'''.
* Carefully melee the '''Bozzetto Elementalist''' down to 25-50% HP and then cast Silence on him if available.
* Re-engage the '''Bozetto High Vicar''', apply debuffs, and wait for it to cast Cure on the '''Bozzetto Elementalist'''. When it does, it will drop his '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' momentarily. Dump your WS damage on him during this moment and repeat until he is dead.
* Finish off the '''Bozzetto Elementalist'''.

|Key Item Locations=
* Daily KI can be received quickly near [[Palborough Mines]] [[Home Point]].
* EXP-yielding KIs can be received easily in [[Pashhow Marshlands (S)]]. There are numerous eligible [[Quadav]]s near the [[Survival Guide]], which is likely to be the most busy location to obtain them.

will use the [[:Category:Qutrub#Abilities|following '''TP moves''']]:
*100~80%
**'''Animating Wail''', '''Mangle''', '''Leaping Cleave'''
*80~60%
**The Bigwig's weapon will break, '''summons adds''', and uses '''Hex Palm''' as well as '''Spinal Cleave'''.
*60~30%
**The Bigwig equips it's secondary weapon. Gains en-death while adds are out wand will use '''Unblest Jambiya''' as well as '''Gen'ei Ryodan'''
***'''Unblest Jambiya''' - AoE shadow removal.
***'''Gen'ei Ryodan''' - Conal damage, stun, and a dispel (removes 5 shadows). Dispels a buff for every hit not blocked by shadows (e.g. no shadows = 5 buffs dispelled).
*50%
**Uses [[Perfect Dodge]]
*30~0%
**Weapon breaks again, '''resummons any defeated adds''', and casts [[Utsusemi: San]] frequently. Loses the en-death effect while adds are out and will use '''Phantom Whorl''' as well as '''Turn the Tables'''.
***The Bigwig may be {{color|wind|silenced}} to stop the Utsusemi spam, but this will require an immunobreak to land.
***'''Genku Bakken / Phantom Whorl''' - Very high {{physical}} damage single hit attack, absorbed by shadows. Has a short range (~'10)
****This move will generally 1-shot players. It is recommended to shadow tank the NM at around 30% HP and under as even with [[Indi-Wilt]] and Damage Taken equipment the move will still do ~3-6k damage.
*****You may also run out of range of this move.
***'''Spin the Tables / Turn the Tables''' - drain based on the current player's HP; Spin the Tables is 15' AoE drain. This move can not drain more HP than the player has, and returns more HP than is drained.
****Frequent use of this on players with high HP will render the Bigwig undefeatable. Players must fight with a lower HP to return less to the Bigwig when it is used. However, with the June 2022 update, any player with less than 10% of their health will die instantly.
|Notes=
*Adds are immune to sleep.
*Adds will use their respective 1-hour special abilities and standard [[:Category:Qutrub#Abilities|Qutrub]] TP moves.
:*The Astrologers will cast typical BLM spells including, T4 nukes, Sleep II, Poisonga, and [[Ice Spikes]].
::*The Astrologers are susceptible to {{color|wind|silence}}.
:*When the Bigwig is at 30% or lower the adds will gain access to a move named '''Triple Reversal'''.
::*'''Triple Reversal''' - Drains HP from the target based on unknown conditions. This effect can be seen draining over 30,000 HP from a player.
:::*Caused by having 3 or more adds (including the Bigwig) on a target at a time. Player may outrun this move if kiting.
:*The rate of activation on the Bigwig's endeath effect increases the more players continue to damage the Bigwig.
:*The effect is removed once the adds have been defeated.

----
*'''Kiting Tip''': Run closer to the walls and corners rather than the pillars to avoid Triple Reversal while kiting.
:*Running closer to the pillars causes mobs to path worse and split more; increasing the chances of a cross route into a K.O from Reversal.
:*The mobs will still break their pathing here and there, but unless you are way too far ahead they will regroup as you go without splitting up at a pillar and crossing over your route.
::*The kite path essentially is an isosceles triangle, you want to almost run into the corners and gauge/adjust your distance to the mobs at each corner if needed. This should reduce group wipes by a lot.
|Very Difficult Strat=

This month has 3 different strategies.

1) Mewing strategy: This is the most reliable strategy, with reasonable clear speed.

PLD or RUN, DD/NIN or NIN/WAR, RDM/NIN, COR/NIN, BRD/NIN, SMN.

DD pulls NM to the corner and the PLD or RUN kites adds around the pillar when they spawn. BRD does March, Mad, Mad, Min and keeps elegy on Bigwig.

DD keep shadows up to prevent endeath kill, rdm keeps dia3, slow II on megaboss, silence on astrologers when they pop, then dps when they are not casting. SMN cure the tank.

At 30% tank stop kiting and hold all mobs away from megaboss in one place so mewing lullaby can land on all the adds, smn spams mewing lullaby on cooldown to prevent Triple Reversal fires off. Rdm will need to recast silence on Astrologers as soon as silence wears off.

At 30% when NM spams '''Turn the Tables''', just let the DD sit at single digit HP. Nin should toss some vokes before wsing to help the lesser shadow DDs eaten by a potential multi attack.

2) Kiting strategy: This strategy is potentially faster than mewing strategy, with more flexibility on dps job types, but they are a little bit less reliable because Triple Reversal has a chance to look tank if party doesn't kill fast.

PLD or RUN, DD/NINx2, BRD/NIN, COR/NIN, RDM or healer

This strategy is identical to mewing strategy except the tank kites all the adds from start to finish, no mewing lullaby used. Healer will need to silence the adds.

3) Kill adds strategy: This strategy is the slowest strategy but most reliable of all. Instead of kiting adds, DDs will kill all adds that spawned. There are 2 waves of adds total. Once adds are dead, NM will no longer us endeath nor triple reversal, therefore removed all the potential possibility to wipe.

|Difficult Strat=
|Normal Strat=
BRD/RDM, RDM/NIN, DD/NIN (x3), PLD
* Can use similar strategy for Very Difficult. However, reversing the roles also works -- i.e. rather than having the PLD kite the adds, the PLD tanks the adds and someone else with /NIN kites the NM. We found that killing the adds makes the fight much safer (but prolongs the whole fight; limit points and capacity points make for a decent consolation prize, though).
* BRD should double March and Madrigal until the adds pop. Switch to double March and Hymnus for the pops. Make sure to silence (easy to land) the Astrologer. PLD should try to grab hate on all the adds. At this point, someone (RDM) should kite the main NM. A simple weapon skill should be enough (or self-light using CDC if you need even more damage) to get the NM's attention. Elegy, Slow II, and Paralyze II should make the kiting process super easy (esp. with /NIN sub). BRD can then switch to double March and Minuet to kill the adds once the NM is away. The adds can be easily dispatched with double-light skillchains or better (we had BLU, SAM, WAR, and used four-step skillchains). With the NM being kited, the BRD can easily main heal (not much healing needed for /NIN).
* When the second set of adds pop, use double March and Hymnus for safety until the NM is separated from the adds. Then switch to double March and Madrigal (or Minuet). If BRD can play more than 3 songs, even better. Same strategy as above. Use Troubador/Nightingale to speed this part up and get back to the NM.
'''Normal Half Kiting Strat:'''

PLD/WAR, PUP/NIN, DD/NIN, BRD/NIN COR/NIN, WHM

* Strategy: Start with Boss then kill all adds (BLM then both DRK) while Pet tank Boss, then zerg Boss till its dead while pld kite adds near 30% hp.

* Pet was full DD set (VE head/SS body), Strobe must be equiped, PUP should use Light, Fire and Wind Maneuver. BRD used double March and double Minuet, but can use Acc song too if needed. COR used SAM and WAR rolls.

* Have Pet or BRD pull boss with elegy to the corner where we started. All engage on Boss except PLD and WHM, PLD wait for adds in the middle, they usually came when we dropped Boss to around ~76% HP.

* Once Adds are up , DDs swap to them, the person who still have hate from Boss must wait till the pet get hate back and let it solo tank, PUP should swap to pet enmity set (especially before Strobe) until the pet have enough enmity from Boss. Pet doesn't need a Tank set, as long as you can keep a Light maneuver on it for Auto-repair kit.

* Kill order for adds: BLM then DRK(x2), WHM should silence BLM to make it easier, BRD dispel Ice spikes if needed. Once all dead swap back to Boss, except the PLD who stand back in middle. At 50% Boss will use Perfect Dodge and around 30% HP he will pop adds again, PLD must grab all of them and kite around the 3 pillars using his enmity abilities. DDs ignore adds and zerg the Boss, it shouldn't take long with a few Skillchains.

'''The idea of this strategy was to supress the Boss' En-death from killing any DD/NIN and not making a Ninja mandatory in every runs. Also the PLD doesn't have to kite the adds and risk of dying in the process, only at the end before the last 30% HP but they never lived enough to cause troubles. Worked like a charm with little to no risk and each run took around 8~10 mins. Now go enjoy your wins.'''

|Easy Strat=
NIN or DD/NIN (x3), BRD, SMN, Apururu(U)
* Very safe strategy
* March x2 + Hymnus to help with Utsusemi recast; Hymnus is just in case the main NM sneaks in a move during recast of shadows so we don't have to deal with raising mid-fight or MP issues. If you can cast more than 3 songs, have at it.
* When adds pop, whichever DD has hate kites NM while the others focus on Astrologer. The SMN then focuses on the Tormentor.
* When adds are dead, group back up on the NM.
* SMN can probably be replaced by 4th DD who would kite Tormentor until the Astrologer is down. SMN can optionally do spike damage on NM during kiting phase so that the DD kiting the NM can rejoin in taking down the adds.

*Fighting adds away from the '''Bozzetto Songstress''' reduces the damage they take considerably while fighting as close to the Songstress as possible will increase their damage taken.
*All foes besides the Bozetto Songstress are susceptible to sleep of either element.
*Each foe will use their respective 1 hour abilities.
:*{{icon|SP}} [[Benediction]] from the WHM which appears on Difficult+ will also heal the Songstress.
*After {{color|wind|silence}} is on the Songstress, Sahagins will level up after it uses a weapon skill.
**Monsters will not level up during weapon skills if the Sonsgstress is not {{color|wind|silenced}}.
**The Sahagins will begin leveling down once the Songstress is no longer {{color|wind|silenced}} and they are standing within the Bio aura.
*The Songstress will resummon defeated Sahagins shortly after their death.

*Monsters will use standard [[Sahagin]] TP moves.
:*Including '''Hydro Shot''' which resets hate on the target and '''Spinning Fin''' (AoE) which inflicts stun for up to 15 seconds.
::*Spinning Fin may be evaded with two shadows.
:*'''Bozzetto Wavefist'''s have a high rate of counter and will use '''Suckerpunch''' which inflicts high damage to one player and resets hate on the target.

'''Very Difficult''':
*'''Chirurgeon''' is a manta with an avoidance down aura, and is immune to sleep.
:*Uses '''Inject Ink''' which is a conal knockback with super gravity.

*This composition and strategy assumes that everyone in the group is well-geared and very familiar with their roles. This instance's VD is relatively more challenging than many other months.
*Due to the strong Regen present, burst damage from Skillchains is integral to success
*Outside use of buffs such as Barthunder/Barparalyze/'''Regen V'''/Protect V/Shell V will reduce buff time in instance. Regen V in particular is extremely important to overcome the constant damage auras
*Upheaval > Savage Blade (WAR) > Upheaval for Light > Radiance, with BRD, COR, and RDM using Savage Blade at the end of the Skillchain
**Kraken > WHM > MNKx2 > DRGx2 > Wyverns > Songstress
*COR Crooked Cards Samurai Roll > Dancer's Roll
**Light Shot Dia IIIs, Savage Blade at the end of the Skillchain, Random Deal to reset Warcrys/other JA

**Apply Horde Lullaby after Manifestation Break, reapply Lullaby if mobs wake up from Benediction or other means, Savage Blade at the end of the Skillchain
*RDM Haste 2, Distract III / Dia III / Paralyze II / Slow II
**Open with Manifestation Break, Dispelga several times to wipe songs, begin debuffs on mobs in kill order. Wait until Songstress is a few songs into its cycle, roughly around Threnody, then apply Silence
***Silencing Songstress will cause adds to begin leveling up. If Skillchains and burst damage is being performed correctly, no more than a few level ups should occur before each mob dies.

'''DDx2, COR (DD, not leech), BRD, GEO, WHM'''
*This is likely the fastest way to farm if you have no seals left.
*Bard sings lightning carol x2 and march X2.
*'''Don't''' silence the Songstress.
:*This method is a zerg where you defeat all the mobs before any respawn so that you can just defeat the Songstress.
*DDs run in, and use some enmity move, such a warcry for hate. This controls the mobs so that they may be slept by the BRD and not run around.
:*A DDing RUN excels in this strategy for DPS with hate control.
*Fight on top of the Songstress and start with the WHM mob.
:*Resleep the mobs after [[Benediction]] wakes them all.
*Proceed to rapidly take down the others mobs, split up your targets if you can. When they are dead the songstress can then take damage and quickly dies.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'''Melee Strat VD'''

RUN, WHM, GEO/RDM, Savage BRD/NIN, Savage COR/NIN, DD

'''Pre Fight Setup'''
* WHM - Barblizzard, Barsleep
* RUN - 3X Sulpor runes (Use valiance RIGHT before you start/pull to give water resistance to entire party)
* GEO - Fury/Frailty (I use entrust STR, but anything to help boost your dmg here would work depending on your group, precision or torpor would also be a possibility)
* COR - Chaos/Sam
* BRD - Marcato HM, Mad X2, Minuet (Doing madrigal X2 as the boss at the end has high evasion even if you are dispelling his evasion boost when he puts it on)

'''Fight Strategy'''
* '''Part I'''
This fight is essentially won or lost in the first couple minutes, and comes down to killing the first mob (SMN Tonberry called Bozzetto Rascal) who is present when you first enter. Your goal is to try and kill the Rascal SMN as quickly as possible. While fighting the Rascal several things occur, the first of which are his astral flows. For this strategy you let the astral flows hit you (which should be survivable) as long as you have barblizzard from the WHM, sulpor / valiance from the RUN, and finally your RUN's One for All (OFA) up. I wait about 15 seconds AFTER pulling the Rascal before the RUN does OFA in order to increase the amount of time it's available to help reduce astral flow damage (In other words, when used too soon it's wasted as the Rascal doesn't use astral flow until about 20-30 seconds into the fight).

Also, while fighting the Rascal several adds will spawn followed shortly after by the boss. In order to deal with these spawns and allow the Run to perform a quick AoE hate grab (Geist Wall or whatever), I would highly suggest having '''EVERYONE''' grouped together within ~5 yalms. Most of the newly spawned mobs will run right into your camp (if everyone is grouped together) allowing the RUN to cast an AoE hate spell on them quickly. For the Bozzetto Defiler (BLM) you will need to flash or blank gaze to grab hate as he will initially remain at casting distance.

With all this in mind, everything comes down to quickly killing the SMN (Bozzetto Rascal) as quickly as you can. Get Dia II on it and use anything else that will help you kill it before your Sulpor/Valiance and One For All buffs wear off. After you have successfully defeated the SMN then this is a relatively easy fight.

* '''Part II'''
After the SMN, proceed with the following kill order. Make sure to have your GEO cast Dia II, Distract, and Dispel on all of these mobs. Magic Finale will not work, as Tonberries have high Light resistance.

'''1:''' Engage and deal damage to the first Bozzetto Chaser (THF) until he uses Perfect Dodge at which point you will disengage and go to the next mob

'''2:''' Engage and deal damage to the second Bozzetto Chaser (THF) until he uses Perfect Dodge at which point you will disengage and go to the next mob

'''3:''' Engage and kill the Bozzetto Defiler (BLM)

'''4:''' Engage and kill the first Bozzetto Chaser (THF)

'''5:''' Engage and kill the second Bozzetto Chaser (THF)

'''6:''' Engage and kill the Bozzetto Slicer (NIN). Have your Whm put [[Sacrosanctity]] up.

* '''Part III'''
Now it's time for the Boss, the Bozzetto Monarch. You will want your GEO to swap their spells to Geo-Frailty / Indi-Precision / [[Entrust]] Torpor. The Monarch can and most likely will use a +400 evasion boost move named "Sigh". You will want your GEO to dispel this, along with keeping Dia II & Distract up throughout the fight. The boss is a cake walk except for a couple things. The first thing to watch out for is the ethereal (translucent) mob that spawns anytime the Bozzetto Monarch uses ''Vertical Slash'' or ''Lateral Reap''. Whenever this ethereal Tonberry is summoned, he will try to Sneak Attack and close a Darkness skillchain on whoever currently has the highest hate level on the Boss which will likely one-shot players. To combat this, all you need to do is have the Tank (or whoever has hate) turn and face the ethereal mob any time they spawn. This can get tricky with your damage dealers when the Bozzetto Monarch uses the hate reset move called Slash Vitals. If the monarch uses this hate reset move on the tank it will result in the monarch changing his focus to the DD with the highest hate resulting in the necessity for this DD to turn and face the ethereal mob if/when it spawns. Usually the tank can get hate back relatively quickly all things depending, but make sure if a DD has hate they are prepared to turn when the ethereal mob spawns.

Lastly, you will need to reset and keep your Tonberry hate as low as possible, due to a couple of the Bozzetto Monarch's moves doing x20 and x100 whatever your current [[Tonberry Hate]] is at. You CAN call for help on every mob in this ambuscade and still receive ALL the Hallmark and Gallantry rewards for this fight. By calling for help on all the mobs you will build less tonberry hate which also results in fewer deaths from moves that multiply damage based on Tonberry Hate. I had to reset my hate every few fights as you still build up hate from killing the mobs for the KI.

*[[Chaos Roll]] [[Samurai Roll]] [[Fighter's Roll]] [[Gallant's Roll]]

'''Strategy:'''
*RUN pulls all Velkk to the starting corner. RDM uses Saboteur and binds Bozzetto Regent, sleeps the PLD Servitor and DRK Bozzetto Servitor and silences BLM Bozzeto Servitor. At this point, it's recommend that the party stack together in the corner. This will prevent problems from adds running off to a distant WHM during hate resets. As such, all mages should idle in a DT set. Ninja subjob is recommended for melee players to prevent AoE dispels, amnesia, and damage.
*CORs and RDM start by burning down the BLM Bozzetto Servitor.
*RDM should be careful to dispel any buffs from each target, apply [[Distract III]], [[Dia III]] and [[Addle II]], and resleep any Bozzetto Servitors that wake.
*Once the BLM Bozzetto Servitor is defeated, the party should attack the Bozzetto Regent with [[Savage Blade]].
**Care needs to be taken to not exceed the 40k damage threshold due to excessive TP overflow or skillchain damage.
**If the Bozzetto Regent is allowed to level up several times, a wipe becomes very likely.
*Once the Bozzetto Regent is eliminated, the remaining adds can be taken out without much trouble.

*Note: This strategy will work with most other DD Jobs in place one of the CORs, but care should be taken to use Weapon Skills that will not create a skillchain that exceeds the 40k damage limit. PLD can also easily tank this battle.

'''Bozzetto Mob''':

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''':

'''TANK BRD/WHM HEALER DDX2 COR or GEO''' 
Buff with usual CP party buffs. Tank pulls and BRD uses Nightingale + Troubadour to sleep the adds and boss. With NiTro still up, buff DDs with Honor March, Madrigal, and Minuet. Fourth song, if available, is situational. For adds, a second March or Minuet is fine so long as BRD is on point with Finale during boss phase. For avatar and boss, Scherzo is preferred.
*Kill order should be {{Icon|BLM}} '''BLM''' (Stormbringer) > {{Icon|BRD}} '''BRD''' (Lyricist) > {{Icon|SAM}} '''SAM''' (Swordsman) > {{Icon|MNK}} '''MNK''' (Brawler) > {{Icon|NIN}} '''NIN''' (Shinobi) > '''Garuda''' > {{Icon|SMN}} '''Boss''' (Conjurer).
:*Always kill Garuda first before attacking the boss. 
Once target changes to Garuda, make sure to use Baraera. BRD should double check that Protect, Shell, and Baraera should be on the DDs until healer can reapply stronger versions. 
The Conjurer has the ability to dispel buffs, but it appears that songs are always intact. 
Howl MUST be removed or the party could potentially wipe (if Scherzo is not available) to Kamaitachi. 
The Conjurer has a tendency to summon Garuda right around 1-2%. Impatient DDs who try to finish off the boss rather than kill Garuda will likely wipe to the spikes that the Conjurer gains while Garuda is out.

'''DD RUN, BRD, WHM, DD, COR, GEO''' 
Buffs:Fury/Frailty entrust wilt. Chaos/SAM roll, march x2, madrigal x2.

1) RUN pulls everything to the corner and brd sleep them all.

2) WHM silence Stormbringer.

3) DD and COR kill Stormbringer, DD RUN solo DD swordsman. Brd and geo dispel spam on anything thats being engaged.

4) After Stormbringer and swordsman dead, DD, RUN and COR engage Brawler, Shinobi and Lyricist.

5) Before DDs engage Shinobi WHM could use Sacrosanctity and RUN could use One for All to prevent Mijin Gakure from Shinobi one shot everyone.

6) After all the adds are dead, kill Garuda then Conjurer.

Notes:

The setup above takes less than 3.5 min to clear from start to finish, including buff time. Actual engage time is about 2 min +/- 10 sec. Because the fight is so short, it is ok to use entrust wilt from start.

For groups without the firepower to clear before entrust wilt wears, it is better to save entrust on conjurer. Conjurer tp moves can be very deadly without wilt.

Brd and geo must spam dispel for brd songs and Howl.

From our experience, Sacrosanctity works well for Mijin Gakure, thus WHM recommended.

Scherzo is not necessary as long as wilt is up, howl dispelled and Sacrosanctity used for Shinobi.

Our RUN engaged different mob from other DDs just to save engage time, thats it. It is alright to have all 3 DD engage the same add, or have each DD solo their own add with multi step SC. As long as backline can handle the cures/dispels and Sacrosanctity used before Shinobi, adds kill order doesn't matter that much.

'''6 Box: SAM GEO BRD WHM COR PLD''' 
Buffs: Indi-Attunement, Entrust Indi-Vex, Geo-Frailty, Sam Roll + Runeist Roll, Honor + Victory March + Scherzo + Ballads on support/tank, Replace Ballads with DD songs (either madrigal or minuets or etudes depending on gear/job), Baraera. 
PLD pulls back to starting corner, BRD sleeps with NT, I had to use Horde Lullaby on the main group, then Foe Lullaby on the BLM who stands too far out. Kill order for me was MNK SAM BRD BLM NIN. Dispel adds as you fight them. BLM can be silenced but doesn't really matter, they die in 3-4 WS anyway.

After killing all adds, kill Garuda before touching boss. 
Boss has potent spikes effect if Garuda is up. Once Garuda is dead, zerg the boss until he re-summons Garuda. He will then proceed to Astral Flow multiple times, but with attunement/vex/runeist roll and baraera.
*This seems to do less than 100 dmg on VD, and with scherzo there as a backup in case it randomly doesn't resist. 
As soon as it re-summons Garuda, switch to and kill Garuda. Switch back to the boss, finish zerging and it's an easy win.

* Macro that does /point <wait1> and /clap <wait 1> over and over helps.
* Never saw the Paralyze Aura on Difficult or lower, so only Blind Aura to contend with which is countered with /point. The aforementioned macro addresses that mechanic.
* Lycopodiums always take 1 melee damage every time you hit, so don't waste your WS on them. Did not test magic to see if it did more.
* Be aware that around 10% Fatal Scream can put doom on your party. Doom clears automatically when you kill the Citrullus, so no worries of dying at the end or in Mhaura after the win.

'''Easy''': 
99RDM/NIN with trusts: Amchuchu, Apururu [U], Iroha II, Qultada, Shanototto II
Took all of 6 minutes post buffs. Amchuchu was a better tank for this than AA EV. Killing Calappa Calappa restores MP (not sure if all or a %age, but it returned 333 to Iroha, 268 to Amchuchu, and 425 to Apururu, so that was a plus)

Fairly easy fight, went much better with Amchuchu and Valiance. I could probably swap out Qultada, but I get lazy with the Dispels, so someone has to do it...

General recommendations: Make sure to have Barwater on all in AOE range, if you can use shadows (and keep 2-3 up) they will help mitigate AOE damage, save TP to kill Calappa Calappa when it spawns. Make sure you've got someone to dispel/finale/dark shot it - it likes to use Magic/Physical Defense Boosts. I think you can be fairly flexible with party set ups. You can go with Tank, WHM, support (RDM, BRD, COR), 2 DD, 1 BLM or SCH for MB. Buff, run in, smash it's face.

'''Very Easy''': 
99RDM/NIN wit AA EV, Apururu [U], Iroha II, Qultada, Shantotto II

Has a few AOE moves - only one that did a lot of damage (700-800 to trusts was Sundering Snip, the others did about 100-200 damage to trusts) Two times during the fight it spawned a Calappa Calappa, a crab, which went down with 1 WS (12k Savage Blade on one and a 5k on the other, chat log never said I defeated it, just said "Calappa Callapa falls to the ground" there was no DOT on it, and I never disengaged the Boss - so I'm not entirely sure what made it go away.)

Matsui-P's hint on the [https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/58282 forums] reads:
<div style="border-left: 2px solid grey; margin: 1em 0 1em 1em; padding: .5em;">Normal features a battle against mushrooms. When fighting them, it’s best to remember that darkness is best banished using light so how you handle the dark elemental present will be key. After all, mushrooms grow best where it’s dark...</div>

This relates to the fight. When the fight first starts, only Yartsa Gunbu will be there. After a timed amount, a dark elemental will spawn. The dark elemental allows smaller funguars called Skullcaps to spawn. Both the dark elemental and skull caps start with random hate. It is easy to have a trust party overwhelmed with adds. If the dark elemental is not defeated within enough time a second elemental will spawn, causing even more adds. All funguars will use their respective familial abilities.

When a dark elemental is defeated, a light elemental will spawn and take no actions against you or Yartsa Gunbu. At this time, the boss becomes very weak to light elemental damage.

It is possible to brute force defeat Yartsa, however it is not recommended unless properly geared.

BST + Trusts
Mainly running ambuscade gear with no gear swap using Scissorleg Xerin, with trusts Rahal/Zeid II/Shantotto II/Koru-moru/Kupipi. iLVL 119
Start the fight engaging Yartsa Gunbu. When the dark elemental spawns, kill it quickly. Your jug pet's TP moves will kill adds in sufficient time. Once the dark elemental is defeated, switch back to Yartsa Gunbu. I had to repeat the process twice before being able to burn the boss down for the last push. Adds will kill your trusts in no time, so watch out and use AoE from your pet if you can.

It is possible to intimidate Yartsa Gunbu, making killer instinct even better than just damage and damage reduction. Just remember for the bonus of Killer Instinct, you must use a vermin-class jug pet.

Uses the following TP Moves:
Sweeping Gouge
Zealous Snort
Terrifying Snap
Thump
Punt

Casts the following spells:
|Notes=Seemed to follow a pattern of casting Zealous Snort on himself for Haste, followed by Sweeping Gouge, Terrifying Snap (10 second-ish stun), Thump (minor knockback), Punt (large knockback). After Punt, hate seemed to reset for primary aggro target, and go to next highest. It bounced off my August trust and myself the entire time. One of his abilities appeared to be a frontal AOE since other trusts were getting hurt by something.
|Very Difficult Strat=
|Difficult Strat=Decent amount of HP. CDC's were doing 15-20k with the same in Light skillchains, and he went down pretty slowly. Was probably an 8-10 minute fight in BLU/WAR just meleeing and CDCing him down with trusts.

Run in and engage Elecampane so trust tank gets enmity, then switch to killing Rhizome, Anther and Stolon to get rid of defense boosts and increase skillchain damage; leaving the other 3 adds alone. Switch back to Elecampane and kill for clear. I'm sure the same strat can be used with any DD job.

'''Splendid Sakura''':

Has a 20' Plague aura.

'''Uses the following TP Moves''':
:*'''Pinecone Bomb''': {{physical}} {{dark}} Area of effect Sleep and damage.
:*'''Drill Branch''': {{physical}} {{dark}} Frontal cone Blind and damage.
:*'''Pollenstorm''': Area of effect Paralyze and damage.
:*'''Chelate''': Removes food effects, potentially has a detrimental effect on the boss (affecting the Plague aura or its damage taken).

'''Antagonizing Aspen''':

Has a 20' Muddle aura. Very resistant to sleep.

'''Languishing Larch''':

Has a 20' Amnesia aura. Very resistant to sleep.

'''Hibernating Hickory''':

Has a 20' Silence aura. Very resistant to sleep.

Fight starts with just Splendid Sakura, but she will spawn in Languishing Larch and Hibernating Hickory on top of herself individually at specific HP thresholds (66%, 50%, 20%, maybe more). If damage is high, multiple will appear at the same time. On Difficult and Very Difficult, it spawns Antagonizing Aspen at the final HP threshold.

|Setups and Strategies=

It's important to defeat the adds quickly, with priority going to the ones that affect your job more. Languishing Larch will spawn in on top of the boss once sufficient damage is dealt, immediately inflicting Amnesia to everyone nearby, making ignoring it difficult in favor of just killing the boss quickly. Healer trusts such as Apururu will generally stay out of range of Pinecone Bomb and wake people up, but Splendid Sakura uses it very frequently and will sometimes sleep the healer based on positioning, which can lead to a bad situation. If Hibernating Hickory is up, it will prevent your trusts from healing at all unless it is moved away or dealt with quickly, generally making it a higher priority to kill unless you aren't using trusts.

The only real differences on higher difficulties noticed were the double add spawn at low HP (which could potentially be attributed to burst damage just knocking it down two HP thresholds) and perhaps more frequent use of Pollenstorm. Beyond that, the stats of the enemies are just higher.

This was ridiculously easy.

* NQ Sulevia PLD, roll-only COR, decently geared PUP (1200 JP) with Ohtas and Taeon (-DMG, MEVA, +Regen) with Valor/Valor Automaton, Kupipi (no Apururu this week b/c I apparently haven't done any Unity stuff, oops), Qultada, Koru Moru

* At the start it was Culler Jack and 2x Spooky Wheezers. I sent the Automaton after the Culler Jack and had the PLD take down the 2 Spooky Wheezers. Then sent everyone after Culler and it popped more Spooky Wheezers around 50% and again at 25%. I think that I could have just focused on Culler Jack and ignored the Wheezers because the didn't affect my ability to kill the Culler.

* VD Solo (2024 version) PUP/RDM, Trusts are Valaineral (He uses AOE to gain Enmity from all mobs) Amchuchu, King of Hearts, Cherrukiki, Sylvie. Cast Stoneskin, Blink, Phalanx, Regen and burn down the 4 adds before killing Lancer Jack.

|Notes=
''This month's Normal Ambuscade features an uragnite. The uragnite’s damage taken will be reduced to 1 while it’s in its shell, so it might help to bring jobs and alter egos that can deal multiple hits in quick succession. Additionally, there is a way to deal extra damage even while it’s sheltered if you meet certain conditions, so be on the lookout for that.''

* '''Bonus Damage mechanic'''
** Kauri gains increased resistance to physical and magical damage based on the damage type it is taking.
** When physical/magical damage taken is balanced, it will do an {{icon|sp}} animation, players will have a large amount of HP/MP restored, and its damage reduction will be reduced.
** If damage taken weighs more heavily toward one type, it will use '''Venom Shell''' when going into its shell.

* When it goes into its shell, all damage is reduced to 1. It will pop out after a certain amount of damage is dealt (~30).

|Very Difficult Strat=
|Difficult Strat=
NIN tanking is preferable: Uragnites attack slowly and deal critical damage with '''Painful Whip''' which can one-shot trusts.

*If the current target has any buffs besides food, the Cockatrice will be able to use a TP move that absorbs those buffs. Players could load a tank up with garbage buffs of no consequence (Bar spells opposite of the SC being used, etc.) to trigger it to continually use this move. It is recommended to have one character/trust try to tank the Cockatrice so that other characters may be buffed and fight it.
*The Cockatrice appears to take heavier damage the more buffs he absorbs. It's possibly the number of times he's absorbed a buff and not the unique number of buffs on him - needs verification. He will start taking very heavy skillchain damage, which can be used to more quickly reduce his massive HP.

|Notes=
*Only the '''Bozzetto Consul''' needs to be defeated in order to win. It and a '''Sabotender Dulce''' are present initially upon entry.
*The '''Bozzetto Consul''' will summon additional Antica (varying with difficulty) approximately every 15~120 seconds.
:*Adds ''must'' be defeated in order to win, even if done so after the '''Bozzetto Consul''' is.
:*Adds are likely called at certain HP percentages with a max wait between summoning of a minute. If the Consul's HP is rapidly dropping it will chain summon adds. {{verification}}.
:*Defeating the summoned adds will significantly increase the attack of the '''Bozzetto Consul''' with each one defeated.
:*Adds will use their job corresponding {{icon|sp}} 1-Hours near at the start of a fight.
:*Adds are called in the order of WAR → RNG → BLM → THF (E+) → PLD (N+)
:*Adds are immune to sleep.
*The '''Sabotender Dulce''' will flee around the battlefield and will eventually run into range to do needles move, the damage being dependent on the difficulty chosen:
::

:*While the '''Sabotender Dulce''' is out of range, the '''Bozetto Consul''' will take less damage.
::*[[Tomahawk]] will help to decrease this effect.
:*The '''Sabotender Dulce''' itself is weak, but takes -99% AoE damage.
::*Using [[Konzen-ittai]] will cause the following WS to miss.
:*Adds will not be summoned after the '''Sabotender Dulce''' is defeated. The message ''"The call goes unheeded!"'' will be displayed.

*'''All Antica use the following TP Moves''':
:*'''Jamming Wave''': {{magical}} {{wind}} (AoE) Damage and Silence.
:*'''Magnetite Cloud''': {{breath}} {{earth}} (Conal) Damage and Gravity.
:*'''Sandstorm''': {{magical}} {{dark}} (AoE) Inflicts Blind.
:*'''Sand Shield'''; {{buff}} Gains Defense Bonus.
:*'''Sand Trap''': {{earth}} (AoE) Damage, Petrification, and resets Enmity.
:*'''Sand Veil''': {{buff}} Gains Evasion Bonus.
:*'''Shoulder Slam''': {{physical}} Damage and Knockback.
:*'''Spikeball''': {{physical}} Damage and Poison.

::*This move was previously known as '''Sodstorm''' when first introduced in May 2017.
:*'''Fettering Tackle''': {{physical}} High Damage and Knock Back.
::*Sand Rush and Fettering Tackle will inflict heavy damage to players, especially while the Consul has [[Mighty Strikes]] active.
:::*Using an enhanced [[Geo-Wilt]] and/or moves like [[Sentinel's Scherzo]] are recommended.
:*'''Thornball''': {{physical}} Damage, Paralysis, and Poison.
:*'''Sand Shroud''': {{buff}} Gains Evasion Bonus.

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''':
* TANK, GEO, COR (or DD), SCH/WHM, BLM x2
* COR provides Wizard's and Warlock's rolls.
* Indi-Acumen, Entrust (onto SCH) Indi-Malaise, Geo-Focus (after pull). Malaise may or may not proc due to the Cactuar running very quickly in and out of range. Geo bubble is mainly to help absorb needles (but it should not go off if your group is prepared).
* Tank runs in to pull main boss at center; party follows; GEO casts Geo-Focus on self for quick setup. SCH opens with Gravitation and BLMs should be able to take out the Cactuar in a single volley of Elemental Sealed Death (from each BLM). Manawall/Convert if you need to and finish off the Cactuar if you got unlucky with resists. Done right, there should be no adds, or at worst just a single set of adds.
* Tank should grab boss (and any adds) to zone-in corner and mages should stand at typical backline job distance.
* GEO should keep Indi-Acumen and now use Geo-Malaise. If there are adds, take them out with AoE spells.
* For quick finish, have SCH use SP and create Fragmentation to burst wind-based spells.
* For slower finish (no SP), have COR self-SC (or SC w/ tank) when SCH's stratagems are down.
* SCH/WHM should help tank stay un-enfeebled.

'''Difficult''':

'''Normal''':
* Players can just bum rush the '''Bozzetto Consul''' and kill him first so his attack isn't raised, then defeat the adds to clear this Ambuscade. Save the THF ('''Stalker''') and PLD ('''Valiant''') for last. You can ignore the '''Cactuar''' entirely. A tank to hold the adds becomes preferable here. Even '''Valaineral''' trust can hold the adds long enough for a solid DD or two to skillchain down the '''Consul''', then move to the adds. Just have party leader swap to them for a moment so he gains hate on them all.

'''Easy''':
* Players can just bum rush the '''Bozzetto Consul''' and kill him first so his attack isn't raised, then defeat the adds to clear this Ambuscade. You can ignore the '''Cactuar''' entirely.

'''Very Easy''':
* Players can just bum rush the '''Bozzetto Consul''' and kill him first so his attack isn't raised, then defeat the adds to clear this Ambuscade. You can ignore the '''Cactuar''' entirely.

'''Key Item Suggestions''':
* [[Quicksand Caves]] [[UNM]] warp.
* [[Proto-Waypoint]] warp to [[Quicksand Caves]].
* [[Voidwatch]] warp to [[Quicksand Caves]], enter and run down the ramp.
* [[Western Altepa Desert]] [[UNM]] warp. Go down the ramp into the ruins and follow the caves. Enemies there occasionally spawn high enough.

:*(On Normal) Summons 4x Bozzetto Warder Adds at 90% HP and a second wave at 35% HP.
:*(On Normal) Bozzetto Warders appear to boost the damage of the [[Blood Weapon]]/[[Souleater]] combo to 20k-50k per auto.
:** If the Warders are dead then [[Blood Weapon]]/[[Souleater]] does normal damage.

:**The Doom effect is not present on the Very Easy difficulty
:*'''Gambol Macabre''' : Single target [[Charm]] (29 seconds) and [[Doom]] (30 seconds). If you are very quick you can get one cursna off in the window.
:**As of the Feb. 2023 Update changes, Will no longer use this move if all Bozzetto Warder are defeated but will use it if main target is further than 10 yalms and will land regardless.

'''Jobs''': {{Icon|MNK}} '''MNK''', {{Icon|BLU}} '''BLU''', {{Icon|BRD}} '''BRD''', {{Icon|COR}} '''COR''', {{Icon|PLD}} '''PLD''', {{Icon|WHM}} '''WHM'''

*{{Icon|COR}} '''COR''': Crooked Chaos, and Monks rolls. DDs wont need to worry about SB beyond TPing in SB II thanks to Monks.
*{{Icon|BRD}} '''BRD''': March, Minuet, Minuet, Madrigal. {{color|wind|Wind Threnody}} the Corse.
*{{Icon|BLU}} '''BLU''': A good Club, and magic accuracy recast set. Set {{color|wind|Feather Tickle}} and {{color|wind|Reaving Wind.}} Advisable to also set Battery Charge and Retinal Glare.
*{{Icon|WHM}} '''WHM''': {{color|wind|Silence}} the Corse. Auspice, Barblind, Dia, and keep Banish effect active.
*{{Icon|PLD}} '''PLD''': Cap block rate with a shield that isn't Ochain, provide Holy Circle.
'''Strategy''':
*1) MNK engages the mob, and gets it down to 90%. Adds then spawn. BLU uses [[Feather Tickle]] and [[Reaving Wind]].
**Do not skillchain past this point as it will heal the mob. So victory smite between the [[Savage Blade]] and [[Black Halo]]s.
*2) Party should all defeat one single Bozetto Warder. This seems to prevent the usage of [[Blood Weapon]]/[[Souleater]] going off and massacring the party. We had an issue with this regularly, and it completely stopped happening from then on.
**PLD should get AoE hate on the Warders with Banishga and then a JA or something of the sort. Despite being ambuscade, enmity is a bit odd with these after initially spawning and they will run around beating people without some intervention.
*3) Party then TPs on the Warders and WSes the Pishogue.
**BLU should [[Black Halo]] as well, but use Feather or Reaving if it is up before WSing.
*4) When the second round of adds spawns around 35%, defeat one just to be safe, and then continue until the fight ends.

*[[Wind Threnody]] will likely affect the success rate of Reaving Feathers. Magic accuracy food isn't required at all when it is on for a well geared BLU, but you will resist regularly without either active.
**This is with Maxentius and Thibron as a ML 30+ BLU. So that should put you in the ballpark for how to anchor your magic accuracy requirements. If you need to, [[Sakpata's Sword]] is a solid choice to offhand to solve any issues.

The fight should take around 5.5 to 9 or so minutes (including buffing) depending on the group.

*'''MNK''' 4 Step SC's, Be prepared to turn to wait for BLU and SMN to pull down the TP of the Corse. Try to not It push under 38%-/+ so Bloody Weapon is not active at the time of the pops of the second set of Skeletons. Once both sets of skeletons are done it is just managing the TP with the team to victory.
*'''Blu''' Reaving Wind, Feather Tickle Top priority, Carcharian Verve, Help kill the skeletons when popped
*'''GEO''' Attack, Frailty, Help heal, and any other debuff you can land helps.
*'''BRD''' Minuet/Attack/ACC songs Ballads on Mages, Help Heal, and any other debuff you can land help. You can also Magic Finale the ice spikes.
*'''SCH''' Pro/Shell, Regen V, Refresh, Phlanax, Adloquium, Stoneskin Reapply whenever needed, Removed Blinds and stat down effects and Heal
*'''SMN''' Apogee: Ecliptic Howl, Ecliptic Growl, Then Hastaga II, Crystal Blessing. Once engaged Mewing Lullaby in conjunction with Blu's TP down spells, Can use Shock Squall to stun all the skeletons after the initial pop and support with Whispering Wind as the skeletons go down reset yourself up for Mewing Lullaby.

:*When the skeletons pop they have what seems to be a very strong enmity lock on specific party members, so be away you may have to be vigilant with healing on mages until they are eliminated. It isn't hard to manage but you can have bad luck SC/MB on anyone and it lights out. As long as it wasn't during a Bloody Weapon you should be able to recover and still win.

Both AOE and single target charms can be avoided by running out of range as they are cast.

|Very Easy Strat=
Solo: Prepare for AoE nukes and either bring a trust healer that outranges the AoE silence ([[BGWiki:Trusts#Yoran-Oran (UC)|Yoran-Oran]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Apururu|Apururu]]), or uses AoE healing job abilities ([[BGWiki:Trusts#Ingrid II|Ingrid II]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Iroha II|Iroha II]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Arciela|Arciela]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Lilisette |Lilisette I/II]], [[BGWiki:Trusts#Selh'teus|Selh'teus]]). Once its HP is below 80% it may start using Hecatomb Macabre which is avoidable. Once you're charmed it will despawn your Trusts, then you have powerful buffs for 3 minutes to try to defeat it.

'''Boss States'''
:*'''Normal''': Boss can be damaged normally with no cause for alarm. The Boss starts in this State and returns to it after using a TP move associated to the Other States.
:*'''Charging Up''': Assumedly Charges '''Atramentous Libations''' or '''Atramentous Oblation'''
:*'''Boiling Over''': Gains an aura that grants players a regain effect. Any damage taken by the boss after this move will increase the damage of '''Nether Castigation''', '''Atramentous Libations''' or '''Atramentous Oblation'''
:*'''Miasma''': Boss gains a weak Dread Spikes effect. You have about 5~15 seconds to deal enough damage to Force him to switch modes before he uses '''Eisenschneider'''
:* When the Boss uses '''Charging Up''' It will change its state and the chat log will be accompanied by one of the following Messages:
::* The Boss begins '''charging up'''. (Entering Charging State)
::* The Boss's rage is beginning to '''boil over'''. (Entering Boiling Over State)
::* The Boss begins to emit a noxious '''miasma'''. (Entering Miasma State)
::* The Boss's '''miasma''' dissipates but is rage is beginning to '''boil over'''. (Boiling Over State)
:::* It's worth noting that if you throw 1 too many Weapon Skills to drop the Miasma state you may overcharge the Boiling Over State.

'''Uses the following TP Moves''':
:*'''Charging Up''': Initiates a State Change from '''Normal''' to '''Charging Up''', '''Boiling Over''' or '''Miasma'''.
:*'''Atramentous Libations''': 20' AoE Drain . Damage may vary depending on damage received during the "Charging Up State".
::*This is a similar mechanic to [[Glassy Thinker]]'s "Pain Sync".
:*'''Atramentous Oblation''': Dispels (possible Abosrbs?) 1 Buff (20' AoE), Damage may vary depending on damage received during the "Charging Up State".
:*'''Nether Castigation''': 20' AoE damage; amount of damage based on damage received after "Boiling Over state".
:*'''Eisenschneider''' :30' K.O Ability. Requires Boss to be in "Miasma state"
::*Bonuses like [[Migawari: Ichi]] will not stop this from inflicting KO.
::*Players may use /heal in order to convert this move to damage instead.
:*'''Infernal Bulwark''': Stoneskin (can be dispelled)
:*'''Noahionto''' : Inflicts significant AoE {{dark}} dark damage based off of the damage the enemy has received. Used at low HP % (<5% HP on Normal)
:*'''Dread Spikes''': Casts AoE Dread Spikes at low HP.
|Notes=
'''Bozzetto Charger''':
*Absorbs damage while readying TP moves.
:*Absorbing damage will increase the power of the Charger's '''Scintillant Lance'''.
*Uses the following TP Moves:
:*'''Scintillant Lance''': 20' Conal {{magical}} {{light}} damage.
:*'''Grace of Hera''': Restores HP and removes status ailments; can be forced by using about 4 or more debuffs

|Very Difficult Strat=
Tank DD BRD/WHM + 3 (SMN or BST or any form of non-pet DD)
:* Tank MUST pull to zone-in spot!
:* The tanks holds both the boss and charger; DD focuses on charger. During this time BRD should just use songs that help DD produce fast/high damage. DD should avoid healing the charger during TP moves (i.e. do not WS during charger's TP moves). BRD should Elegy, Dia II, Threnody, and Requiem -- this will force Grace of Hera as opposed to damage TP moves
:* During boss phase, DD should stop all WS damage if they see the "charging" message. If you bring lots of DD, it may be a good idea to pull all but one DD off the boss and use white damage to push the boss into '''Atramentous Libations.''' Once this TP move is used, all DD can continue to dish out damage. BRD should always maintain Hymnus on all DDs and the tank when charging/boil/miasma messages appear.
:* Upon seeing the "boiling" message, all damage must stop immediately. Use Dia at maximum casting distance to push the boss into a TP move ('''Nether Castigation'''). Once this TP move is used, return to regular attack mode and continue to watch out for any charging/boiling/miasma messages.
:* If the "miasma" message appears, everyone should dump TP / use SC's to dish out high damage and force the boss back into boiling mode (might need to set TP order to prevent damage overspill into "boiling" phase). Once TP is dumped, everyone run far away. Basically, if the tank is holding near the zone-in location, then anywhere BEHIND farthest pillar is safe. If the tank dies, immediately put Hymnus back on and let the tank get hate before continuing damage or healing. There is a fairly long delay between the "miasma" message and K.O. move (if it does go off) so only the tank is ever really in danger of dieing.
:* BRD should always keep Ballad III, and Hymnus on the tank since boss will Aspir (up to Aspir III). No healer is really needed aside from Curaga II from BRD if DDs get hit with AOE.
:* As the boss gets lower in HP, it will often start "charging" and immediately switch to "boiling" rather frequently. Watch those trigger-happy WS fingers! It will also cast '''Death Spikes''' on a very regular basis, so make sure DDs turn and dispel/finale the spikes.
:* The boss can cast other spells (both single and aoe form) such as Stun and Bio.

|Difficult Strat=

|Normal Strat=
Tank (not required), 2 DDs, 1 BRD/WHM
:* Buff DPS with Haste Songs and any additional Attack songs you can get
:* Buff tank with Haste Songs and Ballad
:* Buff BRD with either your highest Ballad or multiple Ballads if possible
:* Your Bard and Tank should be able to heal the group assuming you don't get floored from Weapon Skilling at the wrong time
:* Doesn't really matter where the boss is fought though the starting corner is as good a place as any.
:* Focus the Horse first. If he readies a TP move wait till he throws out his next Auto-Attack before resuming damage. If you want you can save your TP for right after he uses a TP move and throws his 1st Auto. That is a pretty safe window.
:* When fighting the Dullahan you'll want to have the tank face them towards a wall to minimize knock back. The tank needs ballad to avoid running out of MP. The Boss' Aspir spells will drain out the MP otherwise.
:* DPS can ideally setup a skillchain and goto town until a Charging Up is used.
::* Once he charges up turn around.
:::* If its Miasma continue Damage and have each DPS (1 at a Time) use a Weaponskill to force him to switch to Boil Over
:::* If its anything else back off to 20' and have the tank just Auto-Attack the boss till it uses its TP move
:* BRD/WHM should be healing from as far back as possible (Max Heal distance to target is 21.5')
:* Notes: If you don't have a tank then during Charge Ups that are not miasma the BRD/WHM can just spam Dia while the DPS have their back turned.
:* Notes: The Benefit of this 3/4-man strat is you have room for a few extra jobs to pad things out. Bring a Healer or another Buffer. I'd caution against stacking too many DPS as there is more mishaps that can go wrong with more DPS. That being said technically if all DPS are paying attention the fight should go quicker.
:* Notes: You can scale this up to Difficult if you are wiping the floor with the moves or scale it down to Easy if your having trouble. Mechanics don't change just the mobs stats do.
:* Strategy is from the 2024-10-12 iteration of this fight.

|Very Difficult Strat=
PLD (with Reforged Relic +2/3), BRD/BLM, SCH (or WHM), COR x3.
The name of the game is [[Quick Draw|Earth Shot]] and [[Savage Blade]]. Rolls are [[Warlock's Roll|Warlock]], [[Wizard's Roll|Wizard's]], [[Fighter's Roll|Fighter's]], [[Chaos Roll|Chaos]], [[Samurai Roll|Samurai]] and [[Tactician's Roll|Tactician's]]. Scholar should throw in Regain, Barthunder and [[Sandstorm]]. When ready, Paladin goes in and [[Shield Bash]]es [[Ramuh]] to knock off Shock Spikes. Unload into Ramuh with blades and earth shot as he becomes more deadly and TP move happy as his health decreases. Once he's fallen, the Doppleganger will appear with a free avatar in one of the four corners. One Corsair should [[Random Deal]] at this moment, while the Bard needs to run up and [[Elemental Seal]] [[Lullaby]] to remove him from the picture temporarily. The avatar should be dealt with immediately, then a coordinated set of Earth Shots vs. the Doppleganger should put him down ending the fight. If you don't move fast enough from the first Earth Shot to their demise, they will Astral Flow and pull out either [[Odin]] or [[Alexander]], the former will one-shot anyone not healing, the second extends the fight possibly allowing more avatars to appear and making victory impossible.

If [[Shiva]] shows up at any time, reset the fight.

Alternatively, bring a BLU with Absolute Terror. Have them use it on the Summoner right before you wake him up. Assuming your DPS are decently geared he'll die before he can do anything at all.

|Difficult Strat=

|Normal Strat=
DPS (Ambu +2 gear is fine, Pulse or better weapon preferred), Yoran-Oran, BLU (For Osmosis) 
The fight starts off vs [[Bozzetto Ramuh]] who casts [[Lightning Armor]] (Shock Spikes) on himself. This is fairly potent. Make sure you have decent Magic Evasion or a way to dispel these or your gonna have a long fight ahead of you. BLU Osmosis seemed to work. Remove the spikes and goto Town on [[Bozzetto Ramuh]]. At some point he'll SP (which I'm assuming is akin to [[Astral Conduit]] he will spam [[Volt Strike]] which stuns for a bit. He may Sprinkle in some [[Stunga]]s or a [[Thunderspark]]'s. The latter of those is only single Target so only 1 person will end up getting paralyzed.

After you dealt with [[Bozzetto Ramuh]] the [[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] Summoner will spawn and summon up 3 avatars over time. If you have enough DPS you can kill each one one at a time. If not you may end up with Wrangling 2-3 mobs at a time. Upon Summoning the last Avatar the [[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] will join the fight as well.

With it's 3 WS's he will form some Skillchains which can drop a DPS or healer into Low HP fairly quickly. At some point he will summon [[Alexander]] or [[Odin]] after he [[Astral Flow]]s. [[Alexander]] Will lengthen the fight with [[Perfect Defense]] where the [[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] will take reduced damage (most hits are reduced down to 1-2 damage some WS's hit for 100). [[Odin]] will use [[Zantetsuken]] which you can /heal through if you disengauge. There are accounts of being able to outrun its range though I have not tried this as resting is far easier. After the
[[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] and all summoned Avatars are dead the fight ends.
 
|Easy Strat=
Soloable with Trusts and Ambuscade NQ gear. Avoid Trust BLMs or ones that favor Light-based skillchains which may heal the avatars. 
Similar to harder difficulties.
[[Bozzetto Doppleganger]] Summoned 1 elemental avatar, and immediately joined the fight. Summoned [[Alexander]] later in the fight.

:*'''Glacial Bellow''' - (Conal) {{magical}} {{ice}} damage, weapon removal, {{color|fire|encumbrance}}, and {{color|thunder|stun}}.
::*Given the usage of [[Barfira]] for Muzzling Wallop, players will tend to resist the weapon removal and encumbrance.

::*This move is not affected by -DT.
::*This move is capable of hitting 99,999 damage to the primary target.
:::*Mercurial Strike '''can and will''' hit for capped damage if performed during a skillchain window (Magic Bursted). If you can stop or mitigate the Bozzetto Enceloados from creating/closing a skillchain, Mercurial Strike will not Magic Burst, therefore hitting for "normal" damage.
:*'''Muzzling Wallop''' - (AoE) {{magical}} {{fire}} damage, knockback, reduces MP by ~x5s the damage dealt, and inflicts silence for a few seconds.
::*This may be mitigated by reducing the damage via [[Stoneskin]], [[Diffusion]]ed [[Magic Barrier]], [[Barfire]], and [[Valiance]]d [[Unda]] runes.

Notes: Using a NIN as one of your DPS is huge but not required. They have access to Blade: Teki a Hybrid Water WS. It should work wonders here. Try to work that into a skillchain if you have a NIN in the group.

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''':
DD, DD, {{Icon|PUP|small}} PUP, {{Icon|COR|small}} COR,{{Icon|BRD|small}} BRD, {{Icon|WHM|small}} WHM

'''Buffs''': 
'''WHM''': Barpara, Barblizzard, Regen IVga, and standard buffs otherwise.

'''COR''': Chaos and Samurai.

'''BRD''': March X2, Minuet, Madrigal.

'''PUP''': Sub WAR and use a standard Valoredge frame setup with strobe and flashbulb, optic fibers, repair kit, and other standard flare. The puppet is not in any danger ever. Master wears no pet oriented gear.

'''Strategy''': 

PUP sends the automaton after the Ravager (WAR) to hold it and start the fight. They then immediately provoke the Deathbringer (DRK) and separate it to remove the aura. I favored using a few counter pieces such as Mpaca body, Bathy Choker R15, and Cryptic earring over a offense oriented DT set. As the Deathbringer rapidly attacks with low damage club and you can counter them up as a PUP. The PUP shouldn't be in any danger of dying with Regen on as the Deathbringer has weak attacks. 
The PUP should then solo multistep SC. I'm partial to String Pummel to Howling Fist to double Victory Smite for lights.

The rest of the party goes after the Don. Then the Incanter, which doesn't need to be slept as it just wakes up. Then the Ravager. Unless there are some unlucky stuns or paralyze procs then the PUP should be able to finish or nearly finish their Deathbringer.

The WHM should stand out of range of AoE range of and to die from the Baby Bomber once or twice as the Don rapidly eats the floor. Keep reraise on and get back up.

That's it. Simple month. Rinse and repeat.
-----
Lionheart RUN x2, COR/WAR, GEO/WHM, BRD/WHM, WHM or g

Buffs: March x2, madrigal x2, Chaos/Sam. Fury/frailty on RUN 1, entrust frailty on RUN 2.

1) RUN 1 goes in and pull Don to starting corner, RUN 2 pulls Ravager to far left corner. COR provoke pulls Deathbringer to far right corner. BRD sleeps Incanter. WHM or RDM cast reraise, silence Don then position themselves in the middle of battle field, away from the other members. Geo entrust frailty on RUN 2 after everyone position themselves.

2) RUN 1 and RUN 2 use battuta and zerg Don and Ravager. COR holds Deathbringer, WS with Savage Blade and cures himself with sangine blade. BRD move between the battlefield and cast stona, paralyna and blindna on RUN 2 and COR. GEO baby sits RUN 1 with cures, blindna and paralyna.

3) If bomb kills WHM or RDM, they must get up immediately and cast Reraise or Goddess's Hymnus on them again.

4) After Don and Ravager is dead, RUNs kill Deathbringer next and Incanter last.

Note: Clear time with setup above is about 4.5 min to 5 depending on buffs and support. RUN 2 can be replaced with a PLD, RUN 1 can be replaced with another DD using entrust Wilt, COR can be replaced with any DD with hate tool and PDT- set.

'''WHM''': Barparalyzra / Barblizzara / Boost-Str / Regen IV-ga / Auspice

'''Strategy''': 
The Warrior and Dark Knight Goblins can be bound without aggroing the Don and Incanter. To do this, stand at maximum casting distance (typically hugging the wall) when casting Bind. As Red Mage, be certain you are using [[Spontaneity]] and [[Saboteur]] with Bind. Once one is successfully bound, move around the front without aggroing the Goblins to Bind the other. The group may then pull the Don and Incanter to the entrance.

Bard can Lullaby the Incanter while the rest of the group murders the Don. Dispel from [[Finale]] or [[Dark Shot]] is a must to remove the Don's [[Ice Spikes]]. [[Silence]] on the Don can help reduce its threat during SP. With proper DPS output, a group can kill the Don before the Furious Bozzetto Bomber spawns. The White Mage should still stand away from the group in case you are not fast enough.

Once the Don is dead, move on to the Incanter. If your Red Mage has properly controlled the Warrior and Dark Knights, they should still be bound. Incanter will melt. You can then choose either of the two remaining Goblins to gang up on. Once the third is dead, finish off the last one.

If your Red Mage fails to Bind the first Goblin without aggroing everything, all is not lost. Do not panic. Bring the Goblins to whichever is Bound so the Red Mage can Bind the second one with its brother. You can then continue the strategy above without any issues.

'''Difficult and lower''':

TANK X2, BRD/WHM, WHM/BLM, DD X2

So long as the goblins are separated (removes aura), the tanks will hardly take damage when using -DT gear. Some Regen on the tanks before starting will but is not necessary (bring along Remedies, though). Each tank pulls the ravager and deathbringer to the wall near their respective spawning positions. The DDs should target the Don and provoke. WHM should ES Silence (although silence can land after ~3 attempts without ES). You may choose to not engage until the Don's spikes have been Finale'd but a good WHM (with helping BRD) should be able to keep paralyze off until the spikes are removed. This month seems to favor heavy-armor DDs but any well-geared pair of DDs should be able to take out the Don before silence wears off. WHM, BRD, and two DDs should form a square around the Don to prevent conal damage from hitting everyone. As soon as a bomber is spawned, WHM should be ready to Curaga IV (or higher). Solace, -DT gear, and SS all help.

Once the Don is dead, the party should then take down each add (fights should be very straightforward hereon out).

Tanks do not have to be PLD or RUN; in fact any DD with /RDM sub and phalanx on should be able to hold the two side goblins.

Solo Red Mage Strategy for Difficult:

As of the April 2023 version of this fight, it is completely soloable (with trusts) by Red Mage.

Job: Red Mage / Ninja. This was done at Master Level 24.

Weapons: Naegling / Thibron

Trusts: Joachim, Ulmia, Monberaux (I did not pay him), Selh'teus, Qultada

Buffs: Haste 2, Phalanx, En-Whatever-Day-It-Is, Aquaveil, Temper 2, Refresh 3, Barblizzard, Barparalyze, Stoneskin, Blink, Gain-STR, Protect/Shell V. I did not buff any of the trusts. Ate Grape Daifuku.

After buffing, Spontaneity and Saboteur. Bind the rightmost Goblin from max distance. You should not aggro the others. If you do, it's fine, simply Bind the other Goblin and pull the Don away. Silence immediately, then Distract 3 and Dia 3. Press Savage Blade every time you have 1000+ TP. Position yourself within all of your trusts to soak the split damage from the Furious Bomber. Ideally Selh'teus will Rejuvenation, but you may need to help spot heal. You have 30 seconds between bombs to deal damage. The third bomb will be the Baby Bomber, just run away from it. Repeat the process, re-positioning after each Baby Bomber as needed. If Bind wears off the other Goblins, stop to re-apply. Once the Don is dead, pull whichever Goblin has the shorter remaining Bind duration and Dia 3, Distract 3, and kill it. Repeat with the final Goblin.

This strategy requires that you be very well-geared. TP set consisted of Malignance and R30 Bunzi pieces. Savage Blade set consisted of R25 Nyame and Empyrean +3.
-----
Solo RDM/NIN strategy for all difficulties:

You will need some "Enfeebling magic effect+" equipment for this strategy. This was tested to work with as little as +13% ([[Duelist's Torque +1]], [[Uk'uxkaj Boots]]) on VE.

1. Buff and summon trusts, taking care to use trusts who will stay in range (to avoid death from the Furious Bomber). For example, consider using [[Mihli Aliapoh]]/[[Kupipi]] instead of [[Cipher: Ygnas|Ygnas]]/[[Apururu (UC)]] as your healer.

2. Walk along the right wall until you reach casting range of the Bozetto Deathbringer. Activate [[Saboteur]].

3. [[Silence]] the Bozetto Deathbringer, then aggro the goblins. Bring the goblins back to the wall.

4. Activate [[Spontaneity]]. Cast [[Gravity II]] on both the Bozetto Deathbringer and Bozetto Ravager.

5. Begin making your way to the opposite corner of the arena by hugging the left/back walls, bringing the Don (and Incanter on VD) with you to the corner.

6. Once you've reached the corner, Silence the Don (and Incanter on VD), then begin killing. If you were quick, you might still have Saboteur up to extend the Silence durations.

By applying a heavy Gravity to the adds and running sufficiently far away, they will eventually (in 30-40 seconds) completely deaggro and return to their starting locations. Silencing the Deathbringer is required because he will not deaggro if he can still cast on you, regardless of whether he's out of casting range. This may also work with [[Bind]], but due to Bind's highly unreliable duration, Gravity is preferred.

Once the Don and Incanter are dealt with, you can pick off the Deathbringer/Ravager individually at your leisure.

*<s>Keep HP of both mobs at similar percentages to avoid typical Iron Giant TP moves. Instead, they will spam Cyclone Turbine (aoe dispel + damage).</s> This was an old strategy that is no longer as reliable as of the Nov 2022 Patch that limits physical and magical damage to 33% for both Giants when both are active. Creating a 15% HP difference between both Giants will deactivate one. Upon deactivation all damage dealt is reduced to 0 and is given a regen effect.
*When Blazenought is deactivated, Frostnought takes 300% physical damage taken, up to 600% after "the magical energies dissipate" message appears.
*When Frostnought is deactivated, Blazenought takes 300% magical damage taken, up to 600% after "the magical energies dissipate" message appears.
*'''The giants use the following TP moves:'''
**When both giants are active:
***Cyclone Turbine: Area of effect damage, dispel's 3 buffs, <20 range
**Blazenought only
***Big Seismic Impact: AoE Slow, Terrorize, high damage, hate reset
***Fire Arm Cannon: AoE fire damage, Max HP/Max MP down
***Eradicator: AoE damage, weakness, <20 range
**Frostnought only
***Ice Incinerator: Conal fire damage, burn
***Scapula Beam: AoE damage, all stats down
***Ballistic Double Kick: Conal damage, hate reset, Encumbrance

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''': Ranged Setup: RUN, COR, COR, BRD, WHM, GEO.

Two shooty boys, one doing Last Stand on Frostnought and the other doing Leaden Salute on Blazenought. (Which is weird because the attempt prior, the magic and physical resists of both were reversed?)

Keeping them similar HP negated ALL of the mechanics. The two only spammed Cyclone Turbine the entire time. No Eradicator. No chat messages. No two-hours. No blizzaga. No invulnerable. No regens. Nothing.

Cyclone Turbine over and over. Despite the RUN being buffless the entire time, it was pretty non-threatening.

The problem? It took 15 minutes and our COR's are geared to the teeth with full REMA buffs from the BRD and GEO.

If the intended method of doing this is keep them close in HP, then that leads to unending Dispel spam, then melee is absolutely not an option. Even in full m.eva gear, it would be a matter of seconds before you lose every buff you have.

|Very Difficult Strat=

Tested last night with this setup, 6 minute clears
Setup: PLD/BLU RNG/WAR RNG/WAR COR/RNG BRD/RDM WHM/SCH

Buffs:
COR: SAM / Chaos
BRD: Honor March / Archer Prelude / Minuet x2
WHM: Barstonra / Barpetra

Strategy:
Party move 20+ from start and always stay 20.1+ from all three. PLD pulls them to start and faces them to party.

PLD turns away on: Stone Dance, Petrifaction, Boulder Dance, and Raqs Baladi Dance.
Kill order: Freyja > Skathi > Frigg
Dia II followed up with light shot x2
Just before Freyja goes down PLD uses Fealty.

*'''Alternate Setup''': Tank, CORx2 (or COR, RNG), BRD/WHM, WHM, PUP

Samurai / Chaos rolls, and Tactician / Hunter if using second COR. Honor March, Minuet x2, Archer's Prelude (or second Minuet if CORx2 and only 3 songs available). Scherzo on tank.

PUP tanks Frigg far away while tank pulls to where party zones in. Tank turns during gaze moves, and faces Freyja and Skathi during any Disregard moves. BRD prioritizes Poisona if tank misses turning or facing a special move while WHM prioritizes Stona. Kill Freyja, then Skathi, and finally Frigg (let the puppet tank Frigg). As long as no one casts a debuff directly on Freyja (causing Draw-in), and the tank can at least avoid Doom (face target during Imparing Disregard), this should be a very easy battle.

'''Other Mamools''':
|Very Difficult Strat=

Setup: PLD/RUN DDx2 BRD/COR RDM WHM
:* Tank, DD, and RDM should sub NIN
:* Tank should run in and establish aggro then drag all 6 Mamool to a wall
:* Designate one DD as the target selector and have the other DD /assist
:* RDM should keep up addle 2 on current target as it removes their ability to instantly cast spells
:* When the current target uses manafont (as early as 80%), RDM silences immediately
:** After silence, Mamool will focus enmity on RDM and use [[Hurl Anathema]], applying [[Mute]], [[Slow]], [[Paralyze]], and [[Virus]]. Keep shadows up to avoid TP attacks. Gravity 2 may alleviate this issue.
:* WHM should keep up the appropriate barspell for the target being fought and reapply shell if dispelled by TP move Ward Breach
:**Order of Mamool Ja's elements is: (Back Row): Water, Wind, Earth. (Front Row): Fire, Ice, Thunder.
:* In Very Difficult only, when a Sextuple Razool Ja is killed, other Sextuple Razool Jas under the effect of Sleep will awaken 33% of the time.
:* If a target is killed with no staff, the remaining Mamool Ja will gain a stacking physical damage up buff indicated by the text 'The warrior's prowess flows through you.'.
:*If a target is killed while still holding its staff (or roughly 1s after using Hurl Anathema), the remaining Mamool Ja will gain a stacking magical damage up indicated by the text 'The sage's prowess flows through you.'
:* Tank, DD, and RDM must keep shadows up to avoid TP attacks after staff is thrown as many of the attacks are potentially lethal after 3-4 staffless targets are killed.

::Note1: Each target can absorb a specific element. i.e., do not create a light skill chain on the fire, lightning, and wind Mamool
::Note2: Recommended to silence first 4 Mamool and leave the other 2 unsilenced to reduce risk of death from TP attacks. Paralyze and addle 2 make the spell casters relatively harmless.
::Note3: Silencing a Mamool Ja before it has used [[Manafont]] can cause it to use [[Mijin Gakure]] for high damage.
::Note4: RDM alternatively should sub SCH to [[Manifestation]] + [[Sleep II]], and use Blink to avoid [[Hurl Anathema]]

|Difficult Strat=

|Easy Strat= Solo NIN with trusts of WHMx2, AATT, BRD, RDM. AATT can keep them slept for a small while at least. Then just skillchain to death avoiding element they absorb while keeping shadows up. Mijin Gakure will cause issues if they decide to use so I tried to get a good skillchain off when a mob is low on health.

'''Other Mamools''':
*Each Mamool has an aura which may be removed by either critical hits or the correct form of skillchain damage.

**Performing a skillchain while the enemy is not performing an action seems to increase the proc rate significantly. Time the closing weaponskill.
**Auras will return after a certain time if the monster is not defeated.
**Enemies will use their TP moves as a counter to being targeted with magic.
::*Includes all magic. White Magic, Black Magic, Songs, Ninjutsu, Blue Magic & Geomancy (Geo- spells).
::*Will not counter while their aura is down. {{verification}}
* '''Lancer''' (DRG) - Summons 3 wyvern pets upon engaging. All 3 wyverns despawn when Lancer is defeated.
**Uses Assault in response to magic. {{magical}} {{fire}} damage. Additional effect: silence and amnesia for 2 minutes.
**Aura is removed via {{icon|distortion sc}} [[Distortion]] skillchain.
* '''Protector''' (PLD) - Immune to sleep and uses [[Invincible]].
**TP Moves:
***Cyclonic Flame: Conal {{magical}} {{fire}} fire damage. Additional effect silence and amnesia.
***Blazing Angon: strong AoE {{magical}} {{fire}} fire damage.
**Aura is removed via {{icon|gravitation sc}} [[Gravitation]] skillchain.
* '''Moraingist''' (MNK/BRD) - Uses [[Hundred Fists]].
**Hydroshot will reset hate.
**Uses Fatal Flood in response to magic: {{magical}} {{water}} damage. Additional effect: 200/tic poison + pushback.
**Aura is removed via {{icon|fragmentation sc}} [[Fragmentation]] skillchain.
* '''Erudite''' (BLM/WHM) - Immune to silence. Low HP and defense, uses [[Manafont]].
**Favors [[Shock Spikes]].
**Has access to [[Elemental Seal]], Poisonga, Paralyga, Slowga, Blindga, Graviga, Sleepga II, and Bindga in addition to the usual high tier Elemental magic.
**Aura is removed via {{icon|fusion sc}} [[Fusion]] skillchain.
|Very Difficult Strat=
Setup: '''PLD, DD/NIN X2 or NIN X2, WHM, BRD, COR or GEO'''
** BRD buffs with March X2 and Minuet (or Madrigal if needed), COR or GEO does their usual buffs, WHM should buff Barvira and Barfira.
** RR items are very helpful and a must only for BRD (use /WHM).
** PLD pulls and waits for wyverns to pop to before spiking hate. BRD uses Horde for crowd control.
** Kill order should be PLD > DRG > MNK (fish) > BLM > Boss
** WHM needs to have continuous Poison until BLM is dead to counter Sleepga. Afflatus Solace helps for adds phase, but Misery could arguably be better for the boss to prevent TP/MP loss from Plague
** BRD should stay well away from PT during boss phase in case of Mijin so that they can RR and quickly horde the boss for recovery.
** Use Dark and Light skillchains to remove auras (use appropriate SC based on aura color).
*** If gear is too high level to remove auras without killing the mob, use 1 dmg weapons and do not weaponskill. You can proc to remove the aura with critical hits (even if they do 0 damage) and then swap weapons to kill when the aura is down.
** When the PLD mamool uses Invincible, hate can go crazy (most likely to go after BRD due to entrance buffs and horde) so use PDT set. PLD should stay put, while hate target should move into position for Cover.
** Do not cast on the boss when it is awake; feel free to cast if he is slept. (Not sure if this applies to BRD songs aside from Horde.) Before fighting the boss, sleep it and Finale it completely before engaging. Use appropriate Light/Dark SC based on aura as soon as he begins casting elemental wheel spells. If boss uses Mijin, BRD should RR and immediately Horde while WHM raises PT.

:*Any [[Barspell]] of the corresponding element will negate the damage and status effects of the Warbles.

|Notes=
*At some point in the battle, '''Bozetto Housemaker''' will run out from it's corner/edge, TP move the party, and run back (usually well below 50% on '''Bozzetto Breadwinner''')
:*Uses '''Earthshaker''', which deals 1000 damage per player hit by it (this includes pets, trusts, and luopans).
::*Ignores Damage Mitigation. Has a significant charge time so possible for everyone to escape its AoE. Also has an additional effect of paralyze (very potent).
:*Once the Housemaker comes out, it will continue to run back in at semi-regular intervals to use the same move. Speculated to be triggered based on time elapsed. {{Verification}}
:*'''Bozzetto Housemaker''' will always target whoever has the most "hate" from casting AoE Barspells. Have one person be dedicated to using Barspells on the party (best if done by support job using /WHM and not the main healer). Make sure to have someone else use Paralyna on this person because the paralyze effect is very potent.
*'''Bozzetto Urchins''' may be slept, but will wake up every time any ''Warble'' is used by the '''Bozzetto Breadwinner'''.
|Very Difficult Strat=
WHM/SCH, BRD, GEO (Idris), RUN/SAM, DDx2
*BRD Buffs, depending on what they have, honor and advancing march, mad x2.
*GEO uses Frailty and torpor depending on the DDs acc. Better to go with fury and two mads than torpor and min x1. Entrust wilt.
*RUN tanks and DDs, save battuta for the fisting.
:*If your RUN is not putting out damage then you should likely do D instead of VD.
:*A buffed and geared [[Epeolatry]] RUN should have little trouble doing 20k+ Resolutions.
*DDs fight. SCing is cool, but it is also fine to just go nuts and not care.
*WHM or GEO should keep the mob {{color|green|silenced}}. This is important to limit any adds.
*If not switching bar spells depending on monster ability keep barstonra up to block petrify from landing.
** Esuna or more conveniently Yagrush the debuffs off.
*The WHM needs to run if/when the Housekeeper runs at them. Damage from it's TP move is 1k per player in range.
**The target can't outrange it, but you can prevent it from hitting anyone else.
*Fight with well geared players should take ~4-6 minutes.

|Difficult Strat=
WHM/RDM, BRD/WHM, GEO/WHM, PLD/WAR, DD X2
* BRD uses Nightingale/Troubadour: March, Minuet X2, Madrigal for melees and Ballad X3 for mages at the start of the battle
** Once the battle begins, BRD's duty switches to Barspell duty.
** When Housekeeper comes, BRD runs away from the group.
* WHM should use Afflatus Misery and Esuna if Warble happens to land. Erase to remove HP-down from Drill Claw
* GEO should help w/ Erase and cures after GEO spells are done. Paralyna on BRD after Earthshaker? goes off. Good M.Acc set needed to silence the Breadwinner.
* Fight near the starting location; everyone should be in range of barspells.
* Only one person should focus on barspells so that your party knows who the Housekeeper will target.
* If Urchins pop, kill them fast; BRD should obviously sleep them.
* Sub-duties for BRD and GEO can be swapped if one person happens to be more capable of catching the Warble move better than the other.

|Notes=
'''Bozzetto Steward''':
:*has extremely potent Dia and elemental(?) DoT
:*Does not move
:*Will despawn over time (approx 1 minute)

'''Moogle''':
:*Does not move on Normal and lower difficulty; will roam on Difficult and Very Difficult
:*Provides an aura that will counter-act the Voyager Moogle's aura but also gives amnesia; aura only activated when boss uses SP
|Very Difficult Strat=
Setup: '''SMN x3, GEO, THF/PLD, RDM'''

Strategy:
*RDM gives Protect & Shell to the THF.
*GEO uses Bolster and Entrusts Indi-Languor on THF, Indi-Frailty on themselves and will use Geo-Torpor once the boss moogle is in position.
*SMN's have Ramuh's out and ready.
*THF will run in, Perfect Dodge, Flash & Sentinel. Moogles will move, if they remain close to the boss moogle in the center, then the THF will need to bring the boss moogle away from the helpers.
*RDM will Stymie Silence & Dia 3 then cast cures as needed.
*SMN will Astral Flow/Astral Conduit right out the gate at 100% HP once the RDM has debuffed. This is the only real way you can kill him if he uses Benediction as his first 1-hour, and even then it's not guaranteed.
*At 85% HP, THF will Larceny once the 1-hour animation goes off on the boss moogle unless it's Benediction. If it's Benediction, THF will need to Larceny if he uses Perfect Dodge, but you will most likely wipe unless your SMN's are stacked and can kill it before the aura becomes active and tick's twice. If the second 1-hour is Benediction, it's a wipe.

Alternate Strategy (not luck-based):
* '''PLD, BRD/WHM, COR X2, RNG (or COR), WHM'''
* Rolls: Hunter's and Monk's (for Subtle Blow), Samurai's and Chaos
* Barsilencera and Auspice (along with Subtle Blow will help reduce the chances of Invite Over)
* If the boss uses Invite Over, PLD should move a few steps away to avoid the spawn's aura.
* Boss uses SP at 85%, 65%, 45%, 25%, and 10% HP. Reduce boss HP down to 88%, 68%, etc. and stop all damage. Then look for a nearby moogle. Wait until that moogle starts moving and then drop the boss HP down to the trigger level. The idea is to make it to the safety moogles right as they are about to stop. (If the boss has an SP aura up and the moogle starts moving, there is a good chance death). No damage during this waiting phase so as to avoid AoE damage and Invite Over. Spam Curaga IV and Curaga V (WHM needs Eber's Pantaloons +1) to ensure that no one dies if the boss happens to use an AoE spell or ability that everyone can still survive. Using any type of bind effect on the moogle can be helpful.
* Save Rampart and Sacrosanctity for Chainspell; spam Finale to prevent the boss from self-curing.
* If anyone dies, stop damage just before the next SP trigger level and wait out the weakness before forcing the SP move on the boss. Do NOT get up near a steward or when an aura is out -- wait until nearby stewards despawn and/or SP auras to drop.
* This method is a sure way to win (unlike the SMN burn method) and does not require the use of SPs. Moreover, it is very easy on support jobs since only the PLD is ever in range of more dangerous moves such as Crys. Flare (high damage to non-tanks even with Shell V), Washtub and Atra. Lib. (stun/terrorize) followed by SP aura.
|Difficult Strat=
'''Tips:'''
*For D+ the regen moogles will roam around and not stay stationary.
*Boss will 2-hour at 85%, 65%, 45%, 25%, and 10% hp.
:*It helps to DPS during the periods the boss has not used 2-hour and you do not have amnesia.
*When boss uses 2-hour everyone should run to either regen moogle and stay close during the whole time amnesia is on.
:*It helps to slow down damage before a trigger point and pull boss close to a regen moogle, just depends how alert everyone in your party is.
*Keep using dispel to remove pro/shell on boss, this keeps boss from curing himself.
*The stewards will randomly spawn around the boss while you are DPSing.
:*Just move a bit away from them when that happens.
*Silence during 2-hour phase helps. D and VD can easily be melee burned.
|Normal Strat=
Solo-able on '''BLU/WAR''' using healer trusts that do not spread out (e.g. Koru-Moru, King of Hearts, Ferrous Coffin, etc).
:*Cherukiki and Apururu are usable as well, but they will require some additional management (by way of disengaging and re-engaging). Cherukiki can cast Silence
:*Required BLU spells include Silent Storm, Subduction, Blank Gaze (or Geist Wall), Magic Fruit, Occultation
:*Pull with Silent Storm and dispel with Blank Gaze (Geist Wall); keep Silence on to avoid Cure VI during Chainspell (can heal around 68k)
:*The gimmick is simple: when the boss uses Invite Over, move your party away from the Steward to avoid the potent DoT aura. When it uses its SP move (any one among those from the starter jobs), the boss itself will have the same aura (visible on the boss itself). At this point, move toward one of the two Moogles who themselves have a beneficial aura that will counteract the aura from the boss. Additionally, the Moogles will have an amnesia aura during this time. Avoid engaging the boss if possible so that it does not gain TP and use Invite Over during its SP (because you will be forced to run to the other Moogle and may possibly die, or your NPCs might die). Use Occultation and Magic Fruit to stay alive. If you need healing from your NPCs, engage to get healed, and then disengage until the boss' aura is down (otherwise they will waste MP trying to Erase and use healing spells to remove aura effects). Try to fight away from the Moogles so you will always have a safe spot during the boss' aura. On Normal, there should only be 4 (?) uses of SP.
:*Re-apply silence when necessary even at the cost of possibly losing one of the Moogles (but do not kill both of them). Best to fight along the outer walls and move in a circle when Stewards are spawned.
:*When/if you are out of MP (including NPCs), use Subduction and run to the opposite side of the arena to rest (or to simply stand still) to allow the NPCs to recover MP/HP.
:*Other NPCs that might work well: Selh'teus and Arciela as they both provide AoE healing; Selh'teus also replenishes MP
|Easy Strat=

|Very Easy Strat=
Solo-able on almost any job. '''Do not kill the Moogles that appear at the start.''' Summon NPCs and fight on top of the Moogle on the right (as viewed when zoning in).

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''':

2023 Edition: MNK WHM BLU GEO BRD RUN

Geo-Malaise / Indi-Acumen, Honor March / Minuet x3, Light Carol I/II RUN, Diffusion Mighty Guard.

Pull everything to the start. Silence the Warlock and the Reaver to prevent Death, Sleepga, and Break. The Hecteyes pet uses annoying AoE debuffs, but will die in one AoE from the BLU. MNK focuses on the Crusader, using Formless Strikes when Invincible goes up. Be sure to WS from behind if the Crusader starts to glow in order to prevent Charm. BLU and GEO AoE everything else down. Entomb, Spectral Floe, Anvil Lightning, and Horde Lullaby to constantly lock down the Orcs. Geist Wall / Dispelga to remove buffs if desired. When only a couple mobs remain, single-target nukes from the BLU will do work. <4min clears if properly performed by a well-geared group.

Big note, the Tamer can use a charm move (Fanatic Dance) if the pet is killed. May want to be careful to kill the Tamer, then kill the pet.

Setup: TANK, BRD, HEALER, DDx3 (or 1 DD replaced by GEO or COR)

Strategy: Usual buffs at the start, with Light Carol and Light Carol II for the tank. On the pull, BRD should Night/Troub Horde Lullaby II the adds. Have the tank pull the the corner where everyone warps in. It is fine to keep the adds slept in the center (so the boss has less of a chance of buffing the adds). One DD has the sole job of attacking the boss from the back, and using a physical weaponskill every time the boss raises his aura. This aura is the start of the charm cycle (2 rounds of Veil of Chaos followed by Manic Dance). To prevent charm, simply remove the aura to reset the boss. The other DD(s) should focus on the adds. It is best to take out the Warlock first (please note that it can and will cast Death). An Elemental Seal'ed Silence should be more than enough to stop the Warlock from casting death. If possible, try to use a skillchain during the add's SP moves as they seem to take extra damage during their SP duration. The Reaver should be handled with care since it can cast Dread Spikes. The BRD should focus on debuffing the adds while waiting on sleep timers. Once the adds wake up and beeline for the tank debuffing can become a major pain because something like spikes buffs might be buried several layers deep. BRD should try to keep double march songs (Tenuto) full time to help with Finale recast timers. After all the adds are killed, go for the boss. The boss appears to use Invincible at fixed HP levels (75/50,25?) -- it is possible to still remove his aura even when weaponskilling for 0 damage; save TP and plan accordingly. (Avoid killing the boss before the adds; otherwise the adds will gain a large damage reduction)

'''Difficult''':

'''Normal''': For soloing, the VE strategy can be used but the fight will be very long. For PT setups, see the VD setup.

'''Easy''':

'''Very Easy''':

For BLU, this is very straightforward. AAEV, Cornelia, Arciela 1, Koru-Moru, and Apururu make a solid team of trusts. When soloing, however, it is best to kill the boss first. Sleep the adds with Dream Flower during the pull. Avoid using Aggressor, Warcry, and Berserk when attacking the boss so that AAEV can maintain hate (and never be charmed). Use Sudden Lunge when the boss uses Invincible. Once the boss is dead, the threat of charm is over. Attack the Warlock next and use Sudden Lunge during its SP or during spells. After the Warlock is dead, the only thing to worry about is the Pugilist using 100-fists. Simply Sudden Lunge to stun, disengage and sleep with Dream Flower. Your NPCs will auto-regen/refresh during this downtime. After about 30 seconds have passed, finish the Pugilist off for the win.

*DDs go to town on the Pilferer and the RDM debuffs.
**DDs should defeat any bombs before they go off.

*Switch target to bomb whenever possible.
*Take out Pilferer when Scoundrel is dead. Again, WHM should ready Cure V for Kibosh and let Apururu deal with status ailments.

*Immediately begins the battle with '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' which will grant the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' an {{color|ice|aura}}.

Will use the following [[:Category:Quadav#Abilities|'''TP moves''']]:
*'''Imperfect Shell Defense''': {{buff}} Grants a damage taken reduction -98%, attack increase, and removes status ailments and gains shell aura.
:*Disappears during each TP move or spell cast and reappears after one is completed.
::*During this window, the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' will take +200% damage.
*'''Wail of Gu'Dha''': 30' AoE {{magical}} draw-in, damage, '''curse''' (-75% HP/MP), and {{color|fire|plague}} (-50 TP/-500 MP /[[tic]])
:*Used once after the defeat of the '''Bozzetto Elementalist'''.
:*Players may run out of range of this ability and leave one player with hate in range to trigger it.
:*The curse affect will always land on players in range. Not even [[Asylum]] prevents this.
*'''Torment of Gu'Dha''': AoE {{magical}} {{earth}} damage, {{color|earth|petrify}}, and hate reset.
:*This move is used exclusively after the use of '''Wail of Gu'Dha'''.
:*The petrify effect lasts for ~45 seconds and is only able to be resisted via abilities such as [[Asylum]], [[Perfect Defense]], and [[Divine Caress]].

|Notes=
*Evasion and Defense of the additional Bozzetto Quadav are considerably low.
*Adds are immune to '''sle'''{{color|light|ep}} and {{color|earth|petrify}}.
*All adds use their corresponding {{icon|SP}} 1-hour abilities
*The '''Bozzetto Berserker''' possesses [[counter]] with an enhanced activation rate.
*After the appearance of the '''Bozzetto Elementalist''', the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' will begin casting Cure on them when the '''Elementalist''' is low on HP.
:*Players may use this as a method of defeating the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' without having to deal with the AoE petrify spam from '''Torment of Gu'Dha''' if they so choose. Every time the '''High Vicar''' casts Cure, his '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' buff will drop for a moment, making him a much softer target.
*On higher difficulties, after the second benediction, the effect of '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' changes to having a single weakness out of Slashing/Piercing/Blunt/Magic, selected randomly on each use. Using the correct damage type that targets this weakness will deal extreme damage with even weaker hits, commonly hitting 99,999 damage.
**The additional Quadavs that spawn will also use this ability and have their own weakness.
**Defeating the additional Quadavs '''after''' the second '''Benediction''' will '''not''' trigger the '''Bozzetto High Vicar''' to use '''Torment of Gu'Dha''', allowing players to safely defeat the boss.
|Very Difficult Strat=
Generally the same as Very Easy, but with an additional phase.
*First Phase:
**Pull the boss and defeat the adds as usual, the boss's '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' will drop.
**DPS the boss down until the first benediction.
*Second Phase:
**Silence the '''Bozzetto Elementalist''' and take it down to half health or so, and use the casting windows to deal damage to the boss.
**Eventually the boss will '''Benediction''' again and the final two adds will spawn.
*Third Phase:
**Silence the adds and pull them over, search for their damage type weaknesses and defeat them.
**The '''Bozzetto Elementalist''' can now be safely taken down.
**Finally finish off the boss.
*Other notes:
**They don't hit particularly hard, any tank should generally be able to hold them relatively easily, and may even be optional.

|Difficult Strat=

|Normal Strat= Same general strategy as Very Easy.

|Easy Strat= Same general strategy as Very Easy.

|Very Easy Strat=
Engage the '''Bozetto High Vicar''', who will spawn two adds.
* Build TP on the '''Bozetto Berserker''', who should die pretty swiftly.
* Dump the TP on the '''Bozetto Devout''' in an attempt to skip his Invincible.
* Re-engage the '''Bozetto High Vicar''' and beat on him until he uses Benediction and summons the '''Bozzetto Elementalist'''.
* Carefully melee the '''Bozzetto Elementalist''' down to 25-50% HP and then cast Silence on him if available.
* Re-engage the '''Bozetto High Vicar''', apply debuffs, and wait for it to cast Cure on the '''Bozzetto Elementalist'''. When it does, it will drop his '''Imperfect Shell Defense''' momentarily. Dump your WS damage on him during this moment and repeat until he is dead.
* Finish off the '''Bozzetto Elementalist'''.

|Key Item Locations=
* Daily KI can be received quickly near [[Palborough Mines]] [[Home Point]].
* EXP-yielding KIs can be received easily in [[Pashhow Marshlands (S)]]. There are numerous eligible [[Quadav]]s near the [[Survival Guide]], which is likely to be the most busy location to obtain them.

*Posses Draw-In

will use the [[:Category:Qutrub#Abilities|following '''TP moves''']]:
*100~80%
**'''Animating Wail''', '''Mangle''', '''Leaping Cleave'''
*80~60%
**The Bigwig's weapon will break, '''summons adds''', and uses '''Hex Palm''' as well as '''Spinal Cleave'''.
*60~30%
**The Bigwig equips it's secondary weapon. Gains en-death while adds are out wand will use '''Unblest Jambiya''' as well as '''Gen'ei Ryodan'''
***'''Unblest Jambiya''' - AoE shadow removal.
***'''Gen'ei Ryodan''' - Conal damage, stun, and a dispel (removes 5 shadows). Dispels a buff for every hit not blocked by shadows (e.g. no shadows = 5 buffs dispelled).
*50%
**Uses [[Perfect Dodge]]
*30~0%
**Weapon breaks again, '''resummons any defeated adds''', and casts [[Utsusemi: San]] frequently. Loses the en-death effect while adds are out and will use '''Phantom Whorl''' as well as '''Turn the Tables'''.
***The Bigwig may be {{color|wind|silenced}} to stop the Utsusemi spam, but this will require an immunobreak to land.
***'''Genku Bakken / Phantom Whorl''' - Very high {{physical}} damage single hit attack, absorbed by shadows. Has a short range (~'10)
****This move will generally 1-shot players. It is recommended to shadow tank the NM at around 30% HP and under as even with [[Indi-Wilt]] and Damage Taken equipment the move will still do ~3-6k damage.
*****You may also run out of range of this move.
***'''Spin the Tables / Turn the Tables''' - drain based on the current player's HP; Spin the Tables is 15' AoE drain. This move can not drain more HP than the player has, and returns more HP than is drained.
****Frequent use of this on players with high HP will render the Bigwig undefeatable. Players must fight with a lower HP to return less to the Bigwig when it is used. However, with the June 2022 update, any player with less than 10% of their health will die instantly.
|Notes=
*Adds are immune to sleep.
*Adds will use their respective 1-hour special abilities and standard [[:Category:Qutrub#Abilities|Qutrub]] TP moves.
:*The Astrologers will cast typical BLM spells including, T4 nukes, Sleep II, Poisonga, and [[Ice Spikes]].
::*The Astrologers are susceptible to {{color|wind|silence}}.
:*When the Bigwig is at 30% or lower the adds will gain access to a move named '''Triple Reversal'''.
::*'''Triple Reversal''' - Drains HP from the target based on unknown conditions. This effect can be seen draining over 30,000 HP from a player.
:::*Caused by having 3 or more adds (including the Bigwig) on a target at a time. Player may outrun this move if kiting.
:*The rate of activation on the Bigwig's endeath effect increases the more players continue to damage the Bigwig.
:*The effect is removed once the adds have been defeated.

----
*'''Kiting Tip''': Run closer to the walls and corners rather than the pillars to avoid Triple Reversal while kiting.
:*Running closer to the pillars causes mobs to path worse and split more; increasing the chances of a cross route into a K.O from Reversal.
:*The mobs will still break their pathing here and there, but unless you are way too far ahead they will regroup as you go without splitting up at a pillar and crossing over your route.
::*The kite path essentially is an isosceles triangle, you want to almost run into the corners and gauge/adjust your distance to the mobs at each corner if needed. This should reduce group wipes by a lot.
|Very Difficult Strat=

This month has 3 different strategies.

1) Mewing strategy: This is the most reliable strategy, with reasonable clear speed.

PLD or RUN, DD/NIN or NIN/WAR, RDM/NIN, COR/NIN, BRD/NIN, SMN.

DD pulls NM to the corner and the PLD or RUN kites adds around the pillar when they spawn. BRD does March, Mad, Mad, Min and keeps elegy on Bigwig.

DD keep shadows up to prevent endeath kill, rdm keeps dia3, slow II on megaboss, silence on astrologers when they pop, then dps when they are not casting. SMN cure the tank.

At 30% tank stop kiting and hold all mobs away from megaboss in one place so mewing lullaby can land on all the adds, smn spams mewing lullaby on cooldown to prevent Triple Reversal fires off. Rdm will need to recast silence on Astrologers as soon as silence wears off.

At 30% when NM spams '''Turn the Tables''', just let the DD sit at single digit HP. Nin should toss some vokes before wsing to help the lesser shadow DDs eaten by a potential multi attack.

2) Kiting strategy: This strategy is potentially faster than mewing strategy, with more flexibility on dps job types, but they are a little bit less reliable because Triple Reversal has a chance to look tank if party doesn't kill fast.

PLD or RUN, DD/NINx2, BRD/NIN, COR/NIN, RDM or healer

This strategy is identical to mewing strategy except the tank kites all the adds from start to finish, no mewing lullaby used. Healer will need to silence the adds.

3) Kill adds strategy: This strategy is the slowest strategy but most reliable of all. Instead of kiting adds, DDs will kill all adds that spawned. There are 2 waves of adds total. Once adds are dead, NM will no longer us endeath nor triple reversal, therefore removed all the potential possibility to wipe.

|Difficult Strat=
|Normal Strat=
BRD/RDM, RDM/NIN, DD/NIN (x3), PLD
* Can use similar strategy for Very Difficult. However, reversing the roles also works -- i.e. rather than having the PLD kite the adds, the PLD tanks the adds and someone else with /NIN kites the NM. We found that killing the adds makes the fight much safer (but prolongs the whole fight; limit points and capacity points make for a decent consolation prize, though).
* BRD should double March and Madrigal until the adds pop. Switch to double March and Hymnus for the pops. Make sure to silence (easy to land) the Astrologer. PLD should try to grab hate on all the adds. At this point, someone (RDM) should kite the main NM. A simple weapon skill should be enough (or self-light using CDC if you need even more damage) to get the NM's attention. Elegy, Slow II, and Paralyze II should make the kiting process super easy (esp. with /NIN sub). BRD can then switch to double March and Minuet to kill the adds once the NM is away. The adds can be easily dispatched with double-light skillchains or better (we had BLU, SAM, WAR, and used four-step skillchains). With the NM being kited, the BRD can easily main heal (not much healing needed for /NIN).
* When the second set of adds pop, use double March and Hymnus for safety until the NM is separated from the adds. Then switch to double March and Madrigal (or Minuet). If BRD can play more than 3 songs, even better. Same strategy as above. Use Troubador/Nightingale to speed this part up and get back to the NM.
'''Normal Half Kiting Strat:'''

PLD/WAR, PUP/NIN, DD/NIN, BRD/NIN COR/NIN, WHM

* Strategy: Start with Boss then kill all adds (BLM then both DRK) while Pet tank Boss, then zerg Boss till its dead while pld kite adds near 30% hp.

* Pet was full DD set (VE head/SS body), Strobe must be equiped, PUP should use Light, Fire and Wind Maneuver. BRD used double March and double Minuet, but can use Acc song too if needed. COR used SAM and WAR rolls.

* Have Pet or BRD pull boss with elegy to the corner where we started. All engage on Boss except PLD and WHM, PLD wait for adds in the middle, they usually came when we dropped Boss to around ~76% HP.

* Once Adds are up , DDs swap to them, the person who still have hate from Boss must wait till the pet get hate back and let it solo tank, PUP should swap to pet enmity set (especially before Strobe) until the pet have enough enmity from Boss. Pet doesn't need a Tank set, as long as you can keep a Light maneuver on it for Auto-repair kit.

* Kill order for adds: BLM then DRK(x2), WHM should silence BLM to make it easier, BRD dispel Ice spikes if needed. Once all dead swap back to Boss, except the PLD who stand back in middle. At 50% Boss will use Perfect Dodge and around 30% HP he will pop adds again, PLD must grab all of them and kite around the 3 pillars using his enmity abilities. DDs ignore adds and zerg the Boss, it shouldn't take long with a few Skillchains.

'''The idea of this strategy was to supress the Boss' En-death from killing any DD/NIN and not making a Ninja mandatory in every runs. Also the PLD doesn't have to kite the adds and risk of dying in the process, only at the end before the last 30% HP but they never lived enough to cause troubles. Worked like a charm with little to no risk and each run took around 8~10 mins. Now go enjoy your wins.'''

|Easy Strat=
NIN or DD/NIN (x3), BRD, SMN, Apururu(U)
* Very safe strategy
* March x2 + Hymnus to help with Utsusemi recast; Hymnus is just in case the main NM sneaks in a move during recast of shadows so we don't have to deal with raising mid-fight or MP issues. If you can cast more than 3 songs, have at it.
* When adds pop, whichever DD has hate kites NM while the others focus on Astrologer. The SMN then focuses on the Tormentor.
* When adds are dead, group back up on the NM.
* SMN can probably be replaced by 4th DD who would kite Tormentor until the Astrologer is down. SMN can optionally do spike damage on NM during kiting phase so that the DD kiting the NM can rejoin in taking down the adds.

*Stands in the middle of the arena with a bio aura, taking no damage, and does not move.
:*Defeating other Sahagins will progressively remove HP from the Sonsgstress.
:*Silencing will remove the bio aura and regen effect from the mobs.
:*The Songstress possesses a high regain effect and will use '''Cleansing Bubbles''' to remove all debuffs from itself and any nearby mobs (~20') as well as waking them.
:*Progressively enfeebling the Songstress will grant different messages:
::*The boss's throat is parched - 1 total debuff
::*The boss's begins to sing off key - 2 total debuffs
::*The boss's voice begins to crack -3 total debuffs
::*The boss's can barely croak the words out - 4 total debuffs. Enables {{color|wind|silence}} to land.
*Defeating all monsters will remove the invincibility from the Songstress until monsters are respawned.
|Notes=
*Fighting adds away from the '''Bozzetto Songstress''' reduces the damage they take considerably while fighting as close to the Songstress as possible will increase their damage taken.
*All foes besides the Bozetto Songstress are susceptible to sleep of either element.
*Each foe will use their respective 1 hour abilities.
:*{{icon|SP}} [[Benediction]] from the WHM which appears on Difficult+ will also heal the Songstress.
*After {{color|wind|silence}} is on the Songstress, Sahagins will level up after it uses a weapon skill.
**Monsters will not level up during weapon skills if the Sonsgstress is not {{color|wind|silenced}}.
**The Sahagins will begin leveling down once the Songstress is no longer {{color|wind|silenced}} and they are standing within the Bio aura.

*Monsters will use standard [[Sahagin]] TP moves.
:*Including '''Hydro Shot''' which resets hate on the target and '''Spinning Fin''' (AoE) which inflicts stun for up to 15 seconds.
::*Spinning Fin may be evaded with two shadows.
:*'''Bozzetto Wavefist'''s have a high rate of counter and will use '''Suckerpunch''' which inflicts high damage to one player and resets hate on the target.

'''Very Difficult''':
*'''Chirurgeon''' is a manta with an avoidance down aura, and is immune to sleep.

'''WAR/SAM (Chango), WAR/DRG (Naegling), COR (DD, not leech), BRD (DD, not leech), GEO/WHM, RDM/SCH'''
*This composition and strategy assumes that everyone in the group is well-geared and very familiar with their roles. This instance's VD is relatively more challenging than many other months.
*Due to the strong Regen present, burst damage from Skillchains is integral to success
*Outside use of buffs such as Barthunder/Barparalyze/'''Regen V'''/Protect V/Shell V will reduce buff time in instance. Regen V in particular is extremely important to overcome the constant damage auras
*Upheaval > Savage Blade (WAR) > Upheaval for Light > Radiance, with BRD, COR, and RDM using Savage Blade at the end of the Skillchain

*RDM Haste 2, Distract III / Dia III / Paralyze II / Slow II
**Open with Manifestation Break, Dispelga several times to wipe songs, begin debuffs on mobs in kill order. Wait until Songstress is a few songs into its cycle, roughly around Threnody, then apply Silence
***Silencing Songstress will cause adds to begin leveling up. If Skillchains and burst damage is being performed correctly, no more than a few level ups should occur before each mob dies.

'''DDx2, COR (DD, not leech), BRD, GEO, WHM'''
*This is likely the fastest way to farm if you have no seals left.
*Bard sings lightning carol x2 and march X2.
*'''Don't''' silence the Songstress.
:*This method is a zerg where you defeat all the mobs before any respawn so that you can just defeat the Songstress.
*DDs run in, and use some enmity move, such a warcry for hate. This controls the mobs so that they may be slept by the BRD and not run around.
:*A DDing RUN excels in this strategy for DPS with hate control.
*Fight on top of the Songstress and start with the WHM mob.
:*Resleep the mobs after [[Benediction]] wakes them all.
*Proceed to rapidly take down the others mobs, split up your targets if you can. When they are dead the songstress can then take damage and quickly dies.
:*Worst case scenario the WHM mob repops and you just wait for one more DRG or MNK to respawn to defeat and end the fight.

*Upon defeat of the '''Bozzetto Rascal''', a '''[[Bozzetto Monarch]]''' will spawn.
:*The Monarch's is a THF, but will receive a ''random'' job's 1-Hour per fight: {{icon|WAR}} ''WAR'', {{icon|MNK}} ''MNK'', {{icon|THF}} ''THF'', or {{icon|DRK}} ''DRK''.
::*The corresponding {{icon|SP}} 1-Hour ability will be assigned to the '''Bozzetto Monarch'''.
*Possesses -50% potency against Geomancy debuffs.

Uses the following moves:
*'''Light of Condemnation''': {{light}} {{magical}} Single target Gravity, Bind, and TP reset.
*'''Vertical Slash''': {{physical}} 1-hit damage and accuracy down.
*'''Lateral Reap''': {{physical}} 1-hit damage and -75% defense down.
*'''Everyone's Wrath''': {{dark}} {{magical}} Single target damage equal to your [[Tonberry Hate]] x20.
*'''Everyone's Revenge''': 25'+ (AoE) {{dark}} {{magical}} Damage is equal to your [[Tonberry Hate]] x100.
*'''Everyone's Virulence''':{{dark}} {{magical}} Deals 99,999 damage regardless of [[Tonberry Hate]]. {{Information Needed}}
:*It is somewhat unclear what exactly triggers this move, but it seems that if one player is hit with a Distortion skillchain and then loses hate causing the Bozzetto Shade to go after another target then Virulence becomes a potential follow up.
*'''Sigh''': {{buff}} Grants ~+400 evasion.
*'''Slash Vitals''': {{physical}} Single target critical damage and hate reset.
*'''Words of Bane''': {{magical}} {{dark}} Single target -50% HP/MP Curse.

*'''Light of Condemnation''' is always proceeded by either '''Vertical Slash''' or '''Lateral Reap''' creating a {{icon|distortion sc}} '''Distor''''''tion''' skillchain.
:*Immediately after this, a '''Bozzetto Shade''' appears and will attempt to perform a sneak attack on the target and close a {{icon|dark sc}} '''Da''''''rk''''''ne''''''ss''' skillchain.
::*Players must turn to avoid taking severe damage from behind when this occurs.
*'''Everyone's Wrath, Revenge, and Virulence''' are ''not'' affected by [[Earthen Armor]], [[Sentinel's Scherzo]], or [[Migawari: Ichi]].
|Notes=
'''Bozzetto Rascal''':
*Uses {{icon|SP}} [[Astral Flow]] multiple times, dealing either {{water}} {{color|water|water}} or {{ice}} {{color|ice|ice}} damage.
*Possesses -25% potency against Geomancy debuffs.
*Possesses a potent [[Regen]].

'''Bozzetto Defiler''':
*Uses {{icon|SP}} [[Manafont]].

'''Bozzetto Slicer''':
*Uses {{icon|SP}} [[Mijin Gakure]].

'''Bozzetto Chaser''':
*Uses {{icon|SP}} [[Perfect Dodge]].

*[[:Category:Tonberry|Tonberries]] have high {{Light}} Light Resistance, so [[Image:Light-BRD-Icon.gif]][[Magic Finale]] will be resisted whereas dark based removal spells will not.
:*E.g. [[Image:Dark-BLM-Icon.gif|link=]] [[Dispel]], [[Image:Dark-COR-Icon.gif|link=]] [[Quick Draw|Dark Shot]], and [[Image:Dark-BLU-Icon.gif|link=]] [[Geist Wall]].

*Players will need to reset their '''[[Tonberry Hate]]''' after a max of 2 or 3 fights via the quest [[Everyone's Grudge]] if they do not Call for Help.
:*Using ''Call for help'' on all of the Tonberries will avoid building [[Tonberry Hate]] in Ambuscade. You will not lose Hallmarks or Gallantry.

|Very Difficult Strat=
Suggested kill order is SMN>BLM>NIN>THF&THF>Monarch.
* The Rascal (SMN) can use multiple [[Astral Flow]], so it is best to take it out as quickly as possible before it can do more than one.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'''Melee Strat VD'''

RUN, WHM, GEO/RDM, Savage BRD/NIN, Savage COR/NIN, DD

'''Pre Fight Setup'''
* WHM - Barblizzard, Barsleep
* RUN - 3X Sulpor runes (Use valiance RIGHT before you start/pull to give water resistance to entire party)
* GEO - Fury/Frailty (I use entrust STR, but anything to help boost your dmg here would work depending on your group, precision or torpor would also be a possibility)
* COR - Chaos/Sam
* BRD - Marcato HM, Mad X2, Minuet (Doing madrigal X2 as the boss at the end has high evasion even if you are dispelling his evasion boost when he puts it on)

'''Fight Strategy'''
* '''Part I'''
This fight is essentially won or lost in the first couple minutes, and comes down to killing the first mob (SMN Tonberry called Bozzetto Rascal) who is present when you first enter. Your goal is to try and kill the Rascal SMN as quickly as possible. While fighting the Rascal several things occur, the first of which are his astral flows. For this strategy you let the astral flows hit you (which should be survivable) as long as you have barblizzard from the WHM, sulpor / valiance from the RUN, and finally your RUN's One for All (OFA) up. I wait about 15 seconds AFTER pulling the Rascal before the RUN does OFA in order to increase the amount of time it's available to help reduce astral flow damage (In other words, when used too soon it's wasted as the Rascal doesn't use astral flow until about 20-30 seconds into the fight).

Also, while fighting the Rascal several adds will spawn followed shortly after by the boss. In order to deal with these spawns and allow the Run to perform a quick AoE hate grab (Geist Wall or whatever), I would highly suggest having '''EVERYONE''' grouped together within ~5 yalms. Most of the newly spawned mobs will run right into your camp (if everyone is grouped together) allowing the RUN to cast an AoE hate spell on them quickly. For the Bozzetto Defiler (BLM) you will need to flash or blank gaze to grab hate as he will initially remain at casting distance.

With all this in mind, everything comes down to quickly killing the SMN (Bozzetto Rascal) as quickly as you can. Get Dia II on it and use anything else that will help you kill it before your Sulpor/Valiance and One For All buffs wear off. After you have successfully defeated the SMN then this is a relatively easy fight.

* '''Part II'''
After the SMN, proceed with the following kill order. Make sure to have your GEO cast Dia II, Distract, and Dispel on all of these mobs. Magic Finale will not work, as Tonberries have high Light resistance.

'''1:''' Engage and deal damage to the first Bozzetto Chaser (THF) until he uses Perfect Dodge at which point you will disengage and go to the next mob

'''2:''' Engage and deal damage to the second Bozzetto Chaser (THF) until he uses Perfect Dodge at which point you will disengage and go to the next mob

'''3:''' Engage and kill the Bozzetto Defiler (BLM)

'''4:''' Engage and kill the first Bozzetto Chaser (THF)

'''5:''' Engage and kill the second Bozzetto Chaser (THF)

'''6:''' Engage and kill the Bozzetto Slicer (NIN). Have your Whm put [[Sacrosanctity]] up.

* '''Part III'''
Now it's time for the Boss, the Bozzetto Monarch. You will want your GEO to swap their spells to Geo-Frailty / Indi-Precision / [[Entrust]] Torpor. The Monarch can and most likely will use a +400 evasion boost move named "Sigh". You will want your GEO to dispel this, along with keeping Dia II & Distract up throughout the fight. The boss is a cake walk except for a couple things. The first thing to watch out for is the ethereal (translucent) mob that spawns anytime the Bozzetto Monarch uses ''Vertical Slash'' or ''Lateral Reap''. Whenever this ethereal Tonberry is summoned, he will try to Sneak Attack and close a Darkness skillchain on whoever currently has the highest hate level on the Boss which will likely one-shot players. To combat this, all you need to do is have the Tank (or whoever has hate) turn and face the ethereal mob any time they spawn. This can get tricky with your damage dealers when the Bozzetto Monarch uses the hate reset move called Slash Vitals. If the monarch uses this hate reset move on the tank it will result in the monarch changing his focus to the DD with the highest hate resulting in the necessity for this DD to turn and face the ethereal mob if/when it spawns. Usually the tank can get hate back relatively quickly all things depending, but make sure if a DD has hate they are prepared to turn when the ethereal mob spawns.

Lastly, you will need to reset and keep your Tonberry hate as low as possible, due to a couple of the Bozzetto Monarch's moves doing x20 and x100 whatever your current [[Tonberry Hate]] is at. You CAN call for help on every mob in this ambuscade and still receive ALL the Hallmark and Gallantry rewards for this fight. By calling for help on all the mobs you will build less tonberry hate which also results in fewer deaths from moves that multiply damage based on Tonberry Hate. I had to reset my hate every few fights as you still build up hate from killing the mobs for the KI.

*[[Chaos Roll]] [[Samurai Roll]] [[Fighter's Roll]] [[Gallant's Roll]]

'''Strategy:'''
*RUN pulls all Velkk to the starting corner. RDM uses Saboteur and binds Bozzetto Regent, sleeps the PLD Servitor and DRK Bozzetto Servitor and silences BLM Bozzeto Servitor. At this point, it's recommend that the party stack together in the corner. This will prevent problems from adds running off to a distant WHM during hate resets. As such, all mages should idle in a DT set. Ninja subjob is recommended for melee players to prevent AoE dispels, amnesia, and damage.
*CORs and RDM start by burning down the BLM Bozzetto Servitor.
*RDM should be careful to dispel any buffs from each target, apply [[Distract III]], [[Dia III]] and [[Addle II]], and resleep any Bozzetto Servitors that wake.
*Once the BLM Bozzetto Servitor is defeated, the party should attack the Bozzetto Regent with [[Savage Blade]].
**Care needs to be taken to not exceed the 40k damage threshold due to excessive TP overflow or skillchain damage.
**If the Bozzetto Regent is allowed to level up several times, a wipe becomes very likely.
*Once the Bozzetto Regent is eliminated, the remaining adds can be taken out without much trouble.

*Note: This strategy will work with most other DD Jobs in place one of the CORs, but care should be taken to use Weapon Skills that will not create a skillchain that exceeds the 40k damage limit. PLD can also easily tank this battle.

'''Bozzetto Mob''':

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Very Difficult''':

'''TANK BRD/WHM HEALER DDX2 COR or GEO''' 
Buff with usual CP party buffs. Tank pulls and BRD uses Nightingale + Troubadour to sleep the adds and boss. With NiTro still up, buff DDs with Honor March, Madrigal, and Minuet. Fourth song, if available, is situational. For adds, a second March or Minuet is fine so long as BRD is on point with Finale during boss phase. For avatar and boss, Scherzo is preferred.
*Kill order should be {{Icon|BLM}} '''BLM''' (Stormbringer) > {{Icon|BRD}} '''BRD''' (Lyricist) > {{Icon|SAM}} '''SAM''' (Swordsman) > {{Icon|MNK}} '''MNK''' (Brawler) > {{Icon|NIN}} '''NIN''' (Shinobi) > '''Garuda''' > {{Icon|SMN}} '''Boss''' (Conjurer).
:*Always kill Garuda first before attacking the boss. 
Once target changes to Garuda, make sure to use Baraera. BRD should double check that Protect, Shell, and Baraera should be on the DDs until healer can reapply stronger versions. 
The Conjurer has the ability to dispel buffs, but it appears that songs are always intact. 
Howl MUST be removed or the party could potentially wipe (if Scherzo is not available) to Kamaitachi. 
The Conjurer has a tendency to summon Garuda right around 1-2%. Impatient DDs who try to finish off the boss rather than kill Garuda will likely wipe to the spikes that the Conjurer gains while Garuda is out.

'''DD RUN, BRD, WHM, DD, COR, GEO''' 
Buffs:Fury/Frailty entrust wilt. Chaos/SAM roll, march x2, madrigal x2.

1) RUN pulls everything to the corner and brd sleep them all.

2) WHM silence Stormbringer.

3) DD and COR kill Stormbringer, DD RUN solo DD swordsman. Brd and geo dispel spam on anything thats being engaged.

4) After Stormbringer and swordsman dead, DD, RUN and COR engage Brawler, Shinobi and Lyricist.

5) Before DDs engage Shinobi WHM could use Sacrosanctity and RUN could use One for All to prevent Mijin Gakure from Shinobi one shot everyone.

6) After all the adds are dead, kill Garuda then Conjurer.

Notes:

The setup above takes less than 3.5 min to clear from start to finish, including buff time. Actual engage time is about 2 min +/- 10 sec. Because the fight is so short, it is ok to use entrust wilt from start.

For groups without the firepower to clear before entrust wilt wears, it is better to save entrust on conjurer. Conjurer tp moves can be very deadly without wilt.

Brd and geo must spam dispel for brd songs and Howl.

From our experience, Sacrosanctity works well for Mijin Gakure, thus WHM recommended.

Scherzo is not necessary as long as wilt is up, howl dispelled and Sacrosanctity used for Shinobi.

Our RUN engaged different mob from other DDs just to save engage time, thats it. It is alright to have all 3 DD engage the same add, or have each DD solo their own add with multi step SC. As long as backline can handle the cures/dispels and Sacrosanctity used before Shinobi, adds kill order doesn't matter that much.

'''6 Box: SAM GEO BRD WHM COR PLD''' 
Buffs: Indi-Attunement, Entrust Indi-Vex, Geo-Frailty, Sam Roll + Runeist Roll, Honor + Victory March + Scherzo + Ballads on support/tank, Replace Ballads with DD songs (either madrigal or minuets or etudes depending on gear/job), Baraera. 
PLD pulls back to starting corner, BRD sleeps with NT, I had to use Horde Lullaby on the main group, then Foe Lullaby on the BLM who stands too far out. Kill order for me was MNK SAM BRD BLM NIN. Dispel adds as you fight them. BLM can be silenced but doesn't really matter, they die in 3-4 WS anyway.

After killing all adds, kill Garuda before touching boss. 
Boss has potent spikes effect if Garuda is up. Once Garuda is dead, zerg the boss until he re-summons Garuda. He will then proceed to Astral Flow multiple times, but with attunement/vex/runeist roll and baraera.
*This seems to do less than 100 dmg on VD, and with scherzo there as a backup in case it randomly doesn't resist. 
As soon as it re-summons Garuda, switch to and kill Garuda. Switch back to the boss, finish zerging and it's an easy win.

* Aggroing the larger mobs will cause all mobs to aggro and may result in decreased dmg taken by all mobs. Mobs can be pulled one at a time and away from the group in order from left > right, smallest to largest to avoid this mechanic.{{Verification}}
** The mobs will have to be pulled with ranged/magical/DoT damage, as Provoke/Flash will not cause them to move and just claim the mob. They have to take damage before they will begin to move.
* Mobs will take damage and use abilities in line with their respective creature type. At 1% health, the engaged mob will continue to stay alive until it uses the TP move '''Succession'''. The exact outcome of the use of this ability is undocumented.{{Verification}}
* Mobs can aggro without the preceeding mob being beaten if the party takes too long to kill the engaged mob. {{Verification}}
* Suggested order for fighting mobs is to start with the Rabbit, and work your way toward the center - once the Coeurl is defeated, jump to the tiger, then work your way back to the middle. The final mob should be the Marid. {{Verification}}

* Lycopodiums always take 1 melee damage every time you hit, so don't waste your WS on them. Did not test magic to see if it did more.
* Be aware that around 10% Fatal Scream can put doom on your party. Doom clears automatically when you kill the Citrullus, so no worries of dying at the end or in Mhaura after the win.

|Setups and Strategies=

'''Easy''': 
99RDM/NIN with trusts: Amchuchu, Apururu [U], Iroha II, Qultada, Shanototto II
Took all of 6 minutes post buffs. Amchuchu was a better tank for this than AA EV. Killing Calappa Calappa restores MP (not sure if all or a %age, but it returned 333 to Iroha, 268 to Amchuchu, and 425 to Apururu, so that was a plus)

Fairly easy fight, went much better with Amchuchu and Valiance. I could probably swap out Qultada, but I get lazy with the Dispels, so someone has to do it...

General recommendations: Make sure to have Barwater on all in AOE range, if you can use shadows (and keep 2-3 up) they will help mitigate AOE damage, save TP to kill Calappa Calappa when it spawns. Make sure you've got someone to dispel/finale/dark shot it - it likes to use Magic/Physical Defense Boosts. I think you can be fairly flexible with party set ups. You can go with Tank, WHM, support (RDM, BRD, COR), 2 DD, 1 BLM or SCH for MB. Buff, run in, smash it's face.

'''Very Easy''': 
99RDM/NIN wit AA EV, Apururu [U], Iroha II, Qultada, Shantotto II

Has a few AOE moves - only one that did a lot of damage (700-800 to trusts was Sundering Snip, the others did about 100-200 damage to trusts) Two times during the fight it spawned a Calappa Calappa, a crab, which went down with 1 WS (12k Savage Blade on one and a 5k on the other, chat log never said I defeated it, just said "Calappa Callapa falls to the ground" there was no DOT on it, and I never disengaged the Boss - so I'm not entirely sure what made it go away.)

Matsui-P's hint on the [https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/58282 forums] reads:
<div style="border-left: 2px solid grey; margin: 1em 0 1em 1em; padding: .5em;">Normal features a battle against mushrooms. When fighting them, it’s best to remember that darkness is best banished using light so how you handle the dark elemental present will be key. After all, mushrooms grow best where it’s dark...</div>

This relates to the fight. When the fight first starts, only Yartsa Gunbu will be there. After a timed amount, a dark elemental will spawn. The dark elemental allows smaller funguars called Skullcaps to spawn. Both the dark elemental and skull caps start with random hate. It is easy to have a trust party overwhelmed with adds. If the dark elemental is not defeated within enough time a second elemental will spawn, causing even more adds. All funguars will use their respective familial abilities.

When a dark elemental is defeated, a light elemental will spawn and take no actions against you or Yartsa Gunbu. At this time, the boss becomes very weak to light elemental damage.

It is possible to brute force defeat Yartsa, however it is not recommended unless properly geared.

BST + Trusts
Mainly running ambuscade gear with no gear swap using Scissorleg Xerin, with trusts Rahal/Zeid II/Shantotto II/Koru-moru/Kupipi. iLVL 119
Start the fight engaging Yartsa Gunbu. When the dark elemental spawns, kill it quickly. Your jug pet's TP moves will kill adds in sufficient time. Once the dark elemental is defeated, switch back to Yartsa Gunbu. I had to repeat the process twice before being able to burn the boss down for the last push. Adds will kill your trusts in no time, so watch out and use AoE from your pet if you can.

It is possible to intimidate Yartsa Gunbu, making killer instinct even better than just damage and damage reduction. Just remember for the bonus of Killer Instinct, you must use a vermin-class jug pet.

'''Splendid Sakura''':

Has a 20' Plague aura.

'''Uses the following TP Moves''':
:*'''Pinecone Bomb''': {{physical}} {{dark}} Area of effect Sleep and damage.
:*'''Drill Branch''': {{physical}} {{dark}} Frontal cone Blind and damage.
:*'''Pollenstorm''': Area of effect Paralyze and damage.
:*'''Chelate''': Removes food effects, potentially has a detrimental effect on the boss (affecting the Plague aura or its damage taken).

'''Antagonizing Aspen''':

Has a 20' Muddle aura. Very resistant to sleep.

'''Languishing Larch''':

Has a 20' Amnesia aura. Very resistant to sleep.

'''Hibernating Hickory''':

Has a 20' Silence aura. Very resistant to sleep.

Fight starts with just Splendid Sakura, but she will spawn in Languishing Larch and Hibernating Hickory on top of herself individually at specific HP thresholds (66%, 50%, 20%, maybe more). If damage is high, multiple will appear at the same time. On Difficult and Very Difficult, it spawns Antagonizing Aspen at the final HP threshold.

|Setups and Strategies=

It's important to defeat the adds quickly, with priority going to the ones that affect your job more. Languishing Larch will spawn in on top of the boss once sufficient damage is dealt, immediately inflicting Amnesia to everyone nearby, making ignoring it difficult in favor of just killing the boss quickly. Healer trusts such as Apururu will generally stay out of range of Pinecone Bomb and wake people up, but Splendid Sakura uses it very frequently and will sometimes sleep the healer based on positioning, which can lead to a bad situation. If Hibernating Hickory is up, it will prevent your trusts from healing at all unless it is moved away or dealt with quickly, generally making it a higher priority to kill unless you aren't using trusts.

The only real differences on higher difficulties noticed were the double add spawn at low HP (which could potentially be attributed to burst damage just knocking it down two HP thresholds) and perhaps more frequent use of Pollenstorm. Beyond that, the stats of the enemies are just higher.

This was ridiculously easy.

* At the start it was Culler Jack and 2x Spooky Wheezers. I sent the Automaton after the Culler Jack and had the PLD take down the 2 Spooky Wheezers. Then sent everyone after Culler and it popped more Spooky Wheezers around 50% and again at 25%. I think that I could have just focused on Culler Jack and ignored the Wheezers because the didn't affect my ability to kill the Culler.

* VD Solo (2024 version) PUP/RDM, Trusts are Valaineral (He uses AOE to gain Enmity from all mobs) Amchuchu, King of Hearts, Cherrukiki, Sylvie. Cast Stoneskin, Blink, Phalanx, Regen and burn down the 4 adds before killing Lancer Jack.

''This month's Normal Ambuscade features an uragnite. The uragnite’s damage taken will be reduced to 1 while it’s in its shell, so it might help to bring jobs and alter egos that can deal multiple hits in quick succession. Additionally, there is a way to deal extra damage even while it’s sheltered if you meet certain conditions, so be on the lookout for that.''

* '''Bonus Damage mechanic'''
** Kauri gains increased resistance to physical and magical damage based on the damage type it is taking.
** When physical/magical damage taken is balanced, it will do an {{icon|sp}} animation, players will have a large amount of HP/MP restored, and its damage reduction will be reduced.
** If damage taken weighs more heavily toward one type, it will use '''Venom Shell''' when going into its shell.

* When it goes into its shell, all damage is reduced to 1. It will pop out after a certain amount of damage is dealt (~30).

|Very Difficult Strat=

NIN tanking is preferable: Uragnites attack slowly and deal critical damage with '''Painful Whip''' which can one-shot trusts.

*If the current target has any buffs besides food, the Cockatrice will be able to use a TP move that absorbs those buffs. Players could load a tank up with garbage buffs of no consequence (Bar spells opposite of the SC being used, etc.) to trigger it to continually use this move. It is recommended to have one character/trust try to tank the Cockatrice so that other characters may be buffed and fight it.
*The Cockatrice appears to take heavier damage the more buffs he absorbs. It's possibly the number of times he's absorbed a buff and not the unique number of buffs on him - needs verification. He will start taking very heavy skillchain damage, which can be used to more quickly reduce his massive HP.

Hoptoad seems like 100% hooked at 110 Fishing, was Lu Shang+1 and Fly Lure.
- Wotasu

Is definitely a lower percentage with a normal rod, but doable all the same.
- Brahmsz

I caught 15 hoptoads in 17 casts with Ebisu, Fly Lure, 93 skill, and smock (no Frog Fishing KI). The other two casts, I caught monsters. [[User:Djohn|Djohn]] ([[User talk:Djohn|talk]]) 22:22, 10 March 2023 (EST)

Caught 3 hoptoads with 12 casts using Bamboo Fishing Rod, 3 skill, and Lufaise Fly. It's one of the weakest rods, but didn't give any "bad feeling"s or breaks. Caught another 3 with Carbon Fishing Rod, but it took ~30 casts. --[[User:Shynoe|Shynoe]] ([[User talk:Shynoe|talk]]) 18:50, 1 April 2023 (UTC)

I was able to catch them at level 0 fishing with Lu Shang's, Fly Lure, and no added skill. The fishing minigame was not difficult at all. This was with no added skill, but may as well get advanced imagery from the guild to help with the bite rate. With +9 in skill, the bite rate was about 1 in 5. I caught 11 of them. [[User:Korrigan|Korrigan]] ([[User talk:Korrigan|talk]]) 09:37, 22 May 2023 (UTC)

0 Fishing Skill + [[Carbon Fish. Rod]] + around 10 [[Lufaise Fly]] worked for me --[[User:Mieiki|Mieiki]] ([[User talk:Mieiki|talk]]) 20:21, 5 August 2026 (UTC)

Mieiki:

I have spawned Panaiveriyamman twice '''without''' the Thunder Hammer equipped. Both times were from the same Qiqirn Goldsmith in the room at H-7/I-8, NE from Silver Sea Remnants teleporter
- Halon Phoenix, Sept 24, 2021

Spent over 4 hours trying to pop with no luck. Revisited all NPC's (including marolith site in Wajaom Woodlands) and was able to pop within minutes. - Averyn Asura, Sept 26, 2021
* Went like 0/100 one-shotting Qiqirns with Subduction but 1/1 after switching to melee.
** Presume it has some sort of enmity or tag mechanic to spawn the Acrolith NM. --[[User:Prismfang|Prismfang]] ([[User talk:Prismfang|talk]]) 21:47, 24 July 2022 (EDT)
** Also had low/no success with one-shotting with BLU magic but melee engagement with a character on the quest yielded a spawn at G-7.

Thanks for another run-around-the-world mission that so far yield nothing of value. - Salty

This is just speculation, but maybe there's a bug that causes to the quest to sometimes not flag properly when entering the zone. Like if you warped in too quickly after receiving the mission. --[[User:Korrigan|Korrigan]] ([[User talk:Korrigan|talk]]) 13:37, 20 May 2023 (UTC)

This NM can spawn post mission as I have popped it solo even with having VR 100% completed. -- 05:17, 8 July 2024‎ Tokimemofan

My anecdotal evidence, killed like ~15 Qirin by melee with no pop, swapped to thunder hammer and got the NM pop on the very first kill. --[[User:Bemuvdar|Bemuvdar]] ([[User talk:Bemuvdar|talk]]) 19:17, 15 October 2025 (UTC)

Took me around ~40 Quirin kill without hammer. --[[User:Mieiki|Mieiki]] ([[User talk:Mieiki|talk]]) 19:22, 5 August 2026 (UTC)

== BLU Magic ==
* Possible to learn Sinker Drill from Panaiveriyamman. --[[User:Prismfang|Prismfang]] ([[User talk:Prismfang|talk]]) 17:09, 25 July 2022 (EDT)

== BLU/RDM ==
*Used [[Nyzul Isle Staging Point]] immediately after using [[Warp Cudgel]] to exit and go straight to location to engage Qigirns... Walked into entry door on left side... immediately engaged melee only without [[Thunder Hammer]] equipped, first time pop after killing first Qiqirn.-- [[User:Soliserio|Soliserio]] ([[User talk:Soliserio|talk]]) 23:15, 1 January 2025 (CST)

The Voracious Resurgence Mission 5-4

2026-08-05T18:08:05Z

Mieiki: /* Walkthrough */

|Description=Mission Orders: Aznahf and Mutihb of the Seagull Phratrie are squabbling over Aznahf allegedly sinking a vessel that came into Mutihb's possession. Though a pteraketos may be at fault, none are sure if it's actually real. Survey the cliffs in the northwest of Arrapago Reef.

* The FastCS addon crashes this cutscene.

* If it does freeze, you can run `//lua unloadall` then `//exec autoload/autoload`, and it should recover from the frozen cutscene.
* Pressing Print Screen Key may also possibly break you out of soft lock.
|}

==Preparation==
*{{color|red|Note:}} Before heading out to [[Arrapago Reef]], you will need to obtain a {{ItemIcon|Hamsi|24}} [[Hamsi]].
**This can be purchased from [[Wahnid]] (H-11) in [[Aht Urhgan Whitegate]], bought from the [[Auction House]] or easily fished from [[Aht Urghan Whitegate]] with zero fishing skill.
**Wahnid is open from 1:00-18:00, closed on [[Lightsday]].
***The item is ''not automatically restocked''. It is only available if previously sold to the guild.
*You will also need a {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]]. Alternatively, [[Thief]] can use [[Skeleton Key]] and or [[Thief's_Tools|Thief Tools]].
**You can obtain the key by examining the '''???''' once per game day at (I-7) in [[Caedarva Mire]] Map 1 (in the vicinity of the small pond containing [[Jnun]]).
**You will need at least 2 more keys for the upcoming steps, so if you are with multiple people/characters, each one should grab a key.
**The Survival Guide teleport to [[Arrapago Reef]] (via Arrapago Is.) and running south will exit to [[Caedarva Mire]] (I-6).
***[[Escape]] from [[Arrapago Reef]] will put you in [[Caedarva Mire]] (I-6) as well.
***Alternatively, you can use the [[Azouph Isle Staging Point]] (Leujaoam Sanctum), exit [[Nashmau]] at (H-6) or use the [[Voidwatch]] warp to Caedarva Mire.

*Head to [[Arrapago Reef]] Map 1 and interact with the '''???''' at the North East corner of (H-10) on a ship for a cutscene to begin the Mission.
**This is easiest via the [[Arrapago Reef]] [[Survival Guide]]. Alternatively, from where you obtained the {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} Lamian Fang Key, head to (I-6) to zone into [[Arrapago Reef]].
***From there, move towards (J-10) with a {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]] to open the '''Iron Gate'''. Trade the key, and quickly cross through.
***'''Hug the left wall''' on this cavern map. You will exit through a door back to the first Map, and you'll you reach (H-10).
**The '''???''' target is the same for the [[Corsair]] Job quest. The correct cutscene mentions Pteraketos and Sealord Skin.
*After the cutscene, head to Map 3 of Arrapago Reef (F-7), and trade a {{ItemIcon|Hamsi|24}} [[Hamsi]] to the [[Apkallu Guide]] for another cutscene.
**The fastest way to get to this location is to warp out and use a [[Survival Guide]] to teleport to [[Caedarva Mire]], then immediately enter the cave into [[Arrapago Reef]].
**'''Note''': If you don't have the Caedarva Mire [[Survival Guide]], you will need another {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]] to reach it.

| style="background: #f9eeee;" |
*If you lack the Caedarva Mire Survival Guide, either walk from the prior cutscene area, or return to town and warp to [[Ilrusi Atoll Staging Point]].
*Assuming that you're starting from the prior area:
**From the ship you are on now (Map 1), proceed to (F-10) to cross over to Map 2 (B).
***This is the same map as if you take the [[Ilrusi Atoll Staging Point]], and the paths converge at the next point.
**Proceed to (D-10) to cross over to Map 3 (C).
**Continue to (F-9) to use a {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]] on door "'''E'''".
**Through the gate, turn right and go through another gate.
**Wind your way around to (F-6) and zone to obtain the [[Survival Guide]] warp in Caedarva Mire. '''You will need it for the next Mission too.'''
**Return to the Reef to (F-7) to trade a {{ItemIcon|Hamsi|24}} [[Hamsi]] to the [[Apkallu Guide]] for a cutscene and resume the Mission.

*After the cutscene with the [[Apkallu Guide]], head west and click the '''Camp Remnants''' (F-7) to begin a confrontation with:

**Merrows can [[Encumbrance|strip your gear]] with Torrent.
**Torrent is a {{magical}} {{water}} move which can be evaded with gear ''and'' water specific evasion.
*2 [[:Category:Qutrub|Qutrub]] (DRK)
*2 [[:Category:Sahagin|Mamool Ja Divers (Sahagin)]] (MNK)
**[[:Category:Trust|Trusts]] may be used. Call them BEFORE checking the '''Camp Remnants'''.
**It is not a difficult fight overall with a trust healer/support and Malignance/Empyrean +2/3 or Nyame R0.
**AoEs behave abnormally in this fight and only hit the primary target, meaning that AoE sleep/petrification will not work.
***Because of this, make sure that you're buffed and have [[DT]] equipment on before popping if you're using trusts.
***The foes can still be individually slept if you so choose, except for the Qutrubs.
|}

*After the fight, click the '''Camp Remnants''' again for a cutscene.
**{{color|red|Note:}} '''FastCS will soft-lock your client to a black screen at the end of this cutscene.'''
***To resolve this, upon reaching the aforementioned black screen, hold '''Prt Scr''' (or '''Fn''' + '''Prt Scr''' if on laptop or a 60% keyboard) for ~2 seconds to unlock yourself from the soft-lock.
*Return to the '''???''' on the Corsair ship at (H-10) Map 1 of Arrapago Reef for the final cutscene and your reward.
** You can obtain another {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]] from the '''???''' in [[Caedarva Mire]] map 1 at (I-7) if the game day has rolled over straight outside of Arrapago Reef.
** Alternatively, you can simply walk back. From the '''Camp Remnants''': go to '''C''' to reach Map 2. From there, go to '''B'''. From there you can reach the Corsair ship.

*{{color|red|Note:}} Before heading out to [[Arrapago Reef]], you will need to obtain a {{ItemIcon|Hamsi|24}} [[Hamsi]].
**This can be purchased from [[Wahnid]] (H-11) in [[Aht Urhgan Whitegate]], bought from the [[Auction House]] or easily fished from [[Aht Urghan Whitegate]] with zero fishing skill.
**Wahnid is open from 1:00-18:00, closed on [[Lightsday]].
***The item is ''not automatically restocked''. It is only available if previously sold to the guild.
*You will also need a {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]]. Alternatively, [[Thief]] can use [[Skeleton Key]] and or [[Thief's_Tools|Thief Tools]].
**You can obtain the key by examining the '''???''' once per game day at (I-7) in [[Caedarva Mire]] Map 1 (in the vicinity of the small pond containing [[Jnun]]).
**You will need at least 2 more keys for the upcoming steps, so if you are with multiple people/characters, each one should grab a key.
**The Survival Guide teleport to [[Arrapago Reef]] (via Arrapago Is.) and running south will exit to [[Caedarva Mire]] (I-6).
***[[Escape]] from [[Arrapago Reef]] will put you in [[Caedarva Mire]] (I-6) as well.
***Alternatively, you can use the [[Azouph Isle Staging Point]] (Leujaoam Sanctum), exit [[Nashmau]] at (H-6) or use the [[Voidwatch]] warp to Caedarva Mire.

*Head to [[Arrapago Reef]] Map 1 and interact with the '''???''' at the North East corner of (H-10) on a ship for a cutscene to begin the Mission.
**This is easiest via the [[Arrapago Reef]] [[Survival Guide]]. Alternatively, from where you obtained the {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} Lamian Fang Key, head to (I-6) to zone into [[Arrapago Reef]].
***From there, move towards (J-10) with a {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]] to open the '''Iron Gate'''. Trade the key, and quickly cross through.
***'''Hug the left wall''' on this cavern map. You will exit through a door back to the first Map, and you'll you reach (H-10).
**The '''???''' target is the same for the [[Corsair]] Job quest. The correct cutscene mentions Pteraketos and Sealord Skin.
*After the cutscene, head to Map 3 of Arrapago Reef (F-7), and trade a {{ItemIcon|Hamsi|24}} [[Hamsi]] to the [[Apkallu Guide]] for another cutscene.
**The fastest way to get to this location is to warp out and use a [[Survival Guide]] to teleport to [[Caedarva Mire]], then immediately enter the cave into [[Arrapago Reef]].
**'''Note''': If you don't have the Caedarva Mire [[Survival Guide]], you will need another {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]] to reach it.

*After the cutscene with the [[Apkallu Guide]], head west and click the '''Camp Remnants''' (F-7) to begin a confrontation with:

*2 [[:Category:Sahagin|Mamool Ja Divers (Sahagin)]] (MNK)
**[[:Category:Trust|Trusts]] may be used. Call them BEFORE checking the '''Camp Remnants'''.
**It is not a difficult fight overall with a trust healer/support and Malignance/Empyrean +2/3 or Nyame R0.
**AoEs behave abnormally in this fight and only hit the primary target, meaning that AoE sleep/petrification will not work.
***Because of this, make sure that you're buffed and have [[DT]] equipment on before popping if you're using trusts.
***The foes can still be individually slept if you so choose, except for the Qutrubs.
</div>

*After the fight, click the '''Camp Remnants''' again for a cutscene.
**{{color|red|Note:}} '''FastCS will soft-lock your client to a black screen at the end of this cutscene.'''
***To resolve this, upon reaching the aforementioned black screen, hold '''Prt Scr''' (or '''Fn''' + '''Prt Scr''' if on laptop or a 60% keyboard) for ~2 seconds to unlock yourself from the soft-lock.
*Return to the '''???''' on the Corsair ship at (H-10) Map 1 of Arrapago Reef for the final cutscene and your reward.
** You can obtain another {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]] from the '''???''' in [[Caedarva Mire]] map 1 at (I-7) if the game day has rolled over straight outside of Arrapago Reef.
** Alternatively, you can simply walk back. From the '''Camp Remnants''': go to '''C''' to reach Map 2. From there, go to '''B'''. From there you can reach the Corsair ship.

*{{color|red|Note:}} You need the {{ItemIcon|Thunder Hammer|24}} [[Thunder Hammer]] you received from Mission 5-3 to complete this.
*Head to Map 3 of [[Arrapago Reef]] (F-7) and speak with [[Apkallu Guide]] for a cutscene to begin the mission.
**Teleport to [[Caedarva Mire]]'s [[Survival Guide]] and then zone to the East.
*Proceed to (G-8) in [[Wajaom Woodlands]] to examine the '''Leypoint''' for a cutscene.
**You may use an {{ItemIcon|Olduum Ring|24}} [[Olduum Ring]] to teleport directly to the spot.
**Alternatively, use the Wajaom Woodlands [[Survival Guide]] or Unity Warp (125).
*Travel to (G-9) in [[Aydeewa Subterrane]] from [[Wajaom Woodlands]].
**To get here, first go to (E-10) in [[Wajaom Woodlands]], ''entrance 8'' on the map to enter the [[Aydeewa Subterrane]] (Map 3).
***[[Voidwatch Warp]] to [[Mamook]] will put you close to this entrance, but it's much faster to just run there.
**Follow the path, along the left wall the whole way, '''do not drop down''', and exit at (J-8).
***This is ''exit 7'' on the map below.
*Once outside keep going and after the first ledge drop you will be in an open area.
**''If you see raptors or spiders then you went the wrong way in the Subterrane.''
*Equip the {{ItemIcon|Thunder Hammer|24}} [[Thunder Hammer]] in your main weapon slot and approach the [[:Category:Marolith|Marolith]] for a cutscene.
**The [[:Category:Marolith|Marolith]] is not targetable. If [[Hydra (Notorious Monster)|Hydra]] is up, you can walk around it without aggro if you do not want to kill it.
**You will receive {{KI}} [[Aeropearl]] afterwards.
*Return to the [[Apkallu Guide]] in [[Arrapago Reef]] (F-7) via the Caedarva Mire Survival Guide for a cutscene.
*Speak with [[Ghatsad]] in [[Aht Urhgan Whitegate]] (I-7) for another cutscene.
**Speaking to [[Dkhaaya]] before [[Ghatsad]] will give you a mini-cutscene where he tells you he cannot fix the aeropearl and send you to Ghatsad.
*Head to [[Alzadaal Undersea Ruins]] and defeat [[:Category:Qiqirn|Qiqirn]] to spawn [[:Category:Acrolith|Panaiveriyamman]] (WAR), an Acrolith NM.
**It will appear immediately after killing a Qiqirn, so summon Trusts beforehand.
**You may need to defeat many Qiqirns before Panaiveriyamman spawns.
***If you're having trouble popping [[:Category:Acrolith|Panaiveriyamman]] equip your [[Thunder Hammer]] and get physical kills with it. (Confirmed that the Thunder Hammer is not required to pop Panaiveriyamman... Just kill till it pops, the Thunder Hammer is not required.)
***The above comment is anecdotal and should not be taken as fact. See [[:Talk:The_Voracious_Resurgence_Mission_5-5|Discussion]] page.
**Uses {{Icon|SP}} [[Mighty Strikes]], but doesn't hit very hard or accurately in general.
**Resistant to magic, especially {{dark}} dark-based spells, but is very susceptible to {{water}} water damage.
**Has approximately 150k HP.
**You will receive the {{KI}} [[Man-made solution]] after the fight.
***The key item will drop to everyone in a party/alliance, even if you are not on the same map.
*Return to [[Ghatsad]] for a cutscene.
**'''Note:''' FastCS may cause you to get stuck on a black screen during this CS. Unload FastCS or use the Print Screen button to unlock from a soft freeze.
**You will receive {{KI}} [[Repaired aeropearl]] afterwards.
*Head back to the '''???''' (H-10) Map 1 [[Arrapago Reef]].
**Survival guide warp to Arrapago Reef.
**You will, yet one more time, require a {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|24}} [[Lamian Fang Key]].
*Return to the [[Apkallu Guide]] via the Caedarva Mire Survival Guide for the final cutscene and your reward.
** '''FastCS will soft-lock your client to a black screen at the end of this cutscene.'''
***To resolve this, upon reaching the aforementioned black screen, hold '''Prt Scr''' (or '''Fn''' + '''Prt Scr''' if on laptop or a 60% keyboard) for 4~ seconds to unlock yourself from the soft-lock.

'''1. Obtain a {{ItemIcon|Phobos Orb|22}} [[Phobos Orb]]:'''
*Purchase a {{ItemIcon|Phobos Orb|22}} [[Phobos Orb]] from [[Shami]] in [[Port Jeuno]] (H-8), costing 30 {{ItemIcon|Kindred's Crest|23}} [[Kindred's Crest]].
**{{ItemIcon|Phobos Orb|22}} [[Phobos Orb]]s are single use and will deplete after completing the KCNM. The depleted orb will remain in your inventory and must be discarded manually.
**When in a party, only the player interacting with the KCNM's entrance will deplete their orb, making it cost efficient to group up!

'''2. Enter a KCNM Battlefield:'''
*Complete one of the [[:Category:KCNM|Kindred Crest Notorious Monster]] fights listed below to obtain {{KI}} [[Shami's key]].
**Every party member inside the battlefield receives the Key Item.

'''3. Open the Treasure Chest:'''
*Return to Port Jeuno (H-8) and select one of the three treasure chests in front of Shami. You might just get an unimaginable treasure...if you're lucky.
**Opening any chest will consume your {{KI}} [[Shami's key]].

'''1. Obtain a {{ItemIcon|Phobos Orb|22}} [[Phobos Orb]]:'''
*Obtain a {{ItemIcon|Phobos Orb|22}} [[Phobos Orb]] from [[Shami]] in [[Port Jeuno]] (H-8), costing 30 {{ItemIcon|Kindred's Crest|23}} [[Kindred's Crest]].
**{{ItemIcon|Phobos Orb|22}} [[Phobos Orb]]s are single use and will deplete after completing the KCNM. The depleted orb will remain in your inventory and must be discarded manually.
**When in a party, only the player interacting with the KCNM's entrance will deplete their orb, making it cost efficient to group up!

'''2. Enter a KCNM Battlefield:'''
*Complete one of the [[:Category:KCNM|Kindred Crest Notorious Monster]] fights listed below to obtain {{KI}} [[Shami's key]].
**Every party member inside the battlefield receives the Key Item.

'''3. Open the Treasure Chest:'''
*Return to Port Jeuno (H-8) and select one of the three treasure chests in front of Shami. You might just get an unimaginable treasure...if you're lucky.

|Intro Text='''[[Vagary]]''', introduced in the March 26th, 2015 update[http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/46531?p=545503#post545503], is a type of battle content that pits pioneers against members of the Xol Triumvirate, sinister forces that made their first appearance in the Seekers of Adoulin mission storyline.

The primary rewards from [[Vagary]] are item level 119 equipment, the ability to begin reforging iLvl 119 [[Reforged Empyrean Armor +1]], the materials used to synthesize Superior 2 armor, and materials used to upgrade [[:Category:Reforged Empyrean Armor +1|Reforged Empyrean Armor]] to 119 as below.

As of the September 16th, 2015 update[http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/48564-Sep-16-2015-%28JST%29-Version-Update?p=560551&viewfull=1#post560551], a new system for acquiring rewards from Vagary was implemented. Players may now receive rewards by interacting with the odyssean passage located in Leafallia (H-8) when in possession of all five ''Fabricated Ward'' Key Items dropped from each of the five Mega Boss Notorious Monsters as detailed below.

:'''Note''': [[Vagary]] does not scale with participants unlike other events. Any amount of players results in the same stats and difficulty of the opponents.

==Getting Started==
====Eligibility Requirements====
*Have installed and registered the [[Seekers of Adoulin]] expansion.

*Be of level 95 or higher.

*Be in a party or alliance of between 3 and 18 players.

*The party leader must have progressed beyond 5-3-2 in the [[:Category:Seekers of Adoulin Missions|Seekers of Adoulin mission]] storyline.
**Completed [[Seekers_of_Adoulin_Mission_5-3-2|Watery Grave]]. ''Party members other than the leader need not fulfill this prerequisite, but [[Seekers of Adoulin]] lore is deeply intertwined with Vagary content. Those who wish to enjoy the story without spoilers are advised to complete the missions first.''

*Only the party/alliance leader must be in possession of the requisite Key Item: {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]]

====Entry Key Items====
Players can obtain the necessary key items by trading vials of {{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|22}} [[Befouled Water]] dropped by [[:Category:Fomor|Fomor]]s in [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] and [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]] to the '''Odyssean Passage''' found in [[Leafallia]].
*The quickest ones to get to are taking the [[Augural Conveyor]] to [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] then following the path to [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]].

====Entry Locations====
Players enter [[Vagary]] through various gates in [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] that tie [[Ulbuka]] to the otherworldly location. There are three such gates, and the layout of the zone and the notorious monster of the triumvirate found within differ accordingly. 
'''''The key items required for entry are the same for all three gates.'''''

* [[:Category:Vagary#Deathborne_Gate:_Palloritus|Deathborne Gate]] is located at (M-7).

* [[:Category:Vagary#Duskbrood_Gate:_Putraxia|Duskbrood Gate]] is located at (N-6).

* [[:Category:Vagary#Brash_Gate:_Rancibus|Brash Gate]] is located at (N-7).

====Progression====
Vagary occurs in the instanced zone: [[Outer Ra'Kaznar (U)]]. There is a 45 minute time limit.

====Reward Redemption====
After obtaining the full set of Fabricated Ward Key Items:
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of impurity]] (Putraxia)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of miasma]] (Rancibus)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of biting winds]] (Palloritus)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of ashen wings]] (Perfidien)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of the false king]] (Plouton)
Players can receive a reward by clicking on the '''Odyssean Passage''' in [[Leafallia]] (H-8) by trading the set of five Fabricated Wards in exchange for one of three choices: 
# The player may choose any piece of equipment that drops off of any monster in any Vagary zone, except for {{ItemIcon|Tartarus Platemail|22}} {{tooltip|text=[[Tartarus Platemail]]|tooltip=[[File:Tartarus Platemail description.png]]}}.
# The player may choose any synthesis or upgrade material that drops off of the Vagary Mega Boss Notorious Monsters, or an {{ItemIcon|Etched Memory|22}} [[Etched Memory]].
# The player may receive a reward at random.
:::'''''This may be any piece of equipment, including {{ItemIcon|Tartarus Platemail|22}} {{tooltip|text=[[Tartarus Platemail]]|tooltip=[[File:Tartarus Platemail description.png]]}}, any Mega Boss material, as well as {{ItemIcon|Codex of Etchings|22}} [[Codex of Etchings]] or an {{ItemIcon|Etched Memory|22}} [[Etched Memory]].'''''

This area contains many [[:Category:Elemental|Elementals]]. Defeating each type of Elemental will prevent [[Putraxia]] from absorbing the analogous type of {{elements}} '''Elemental''' damage.

*Elementals will {{magic}} '''Magic''' aggro and {{links}} '''Link'''.
*Defeating all Elementals of a specific type will stop [[Putraxia]] from absorbing that type of Elemental damage.
**It also prevents it from casting the related Elemental magic. Highly recommended to kill all {{dark}} {{color|dark|Dark}} Elementals (including the one next to where Putraxia spawns) to prevent the casting of [[Death]] as well as Fire and Thunder so that Scholar can use Fusion.

:'''''It currently seems to be completely random as to which column contains the NM wave.'''''

* '''Tier II NM:''' [[Brimboil]] It will split if it takes over a certain amount of damage(~3500) in a single hit. Each copy has less HP than the NM and but also splits in the same manner. Each will cast [[Meteor]] when the main Brimboil does. It is recommended that physical DDs auto-attack and don't use weapon skills and for magical DDs to use only low tier nukes.

After defeating Brimboil, six new columns will appear and, again, only one of the six contains the NM wave. However, now, each wave of amorphs is more populous. 
Upon activation of a pillar, the following messages will be displayed:
*"Fragments of scattered memories begin to coalesce!" means Rancibus will '''not''' spawn.
*"A thousand scattered memories begin to take shape!" means Rancibus will spawn at the start with the wave, or after a certain amount of waves have been cleared.

==Additional Notorious Monsters==

Two additional NMs may be spawned in any zone by fulfilling certain hidden objectives. When each objective is completed, the player who initially took the alliance into the zone will receive a message that their [[Prototype pearl of ashen wings]] or [[Prototype pearl of the false king]] has evolved. No other player will receive any indication that an objective has been completed.
* When all three objectives are completed, the NM will immediately spawn on the player who took the alliance into the zone, regardless of where the objective was completed.
* Both NMs may be alive at the same time.

If any player in the alliance dies at any point before the NMs spawn, it is no longer possible to spawn them on that run.
If any player in the alliance dies during the fight against either NMs, it will immediately Warp and it will no longer be possible to spawn either NM on that run.

[[Prototype pearl of ashen wings]] and [[Prototype pearl of the false king]] are not lost upon entry to the zone, only when their respective NMs spawn.
Only the player who initially took the alliance into the zone will have their prototype pearls consumed.

Each NM grants a 15-minute time extension upon defeat.

Shortly after reaching 90% HP, the NM will perform an {{icon|SP}} cloud animation and pick a random element to align to. Light and Dark will never be selected.
* The NM will absorb the aligned element, take 0 damage from the descendant element, and become highly resistant to all damage except the ascendant element, including physical damage.
* The color of the {{icon|SP}} cloud represents the element the NM is strong against. The correct element to use against the NM is '''two''' elements ascendant from the color of the cloud.
* If no elemental damage of the six primary elements (including Skillchain damage) is ever used against the NM, it will not gain damage resistance. '''The NMs may be defeated quickly by using only physical Weapon Skills which do not form Skillchains with each other.'''
* Dealing more than a very small amount of damage of the aligned element will trigger an [[Encumbrance]] effect on all players, making the fight much more difficult.
** The duration of the [[Encumbrance]] effect increases with the amount of HP the boss recovers from the elemental damage.
* Magic of the element the NM is weak to will proc {{Blue!}} and provide a message to everyone in the alliance informing them of the correct element.
* Performing a [[Skillchain]] of any level including the element the NM is weak to will proc {{Red!}} and grant a substantial magic damage bonus.
** Failing to do this within a certain period of time will cause the NM to Warp.
** Shortly after the Magic Burst window ends, or if the proc is not achieved within a short period of time, the boss will pick a new element and display another {{icon|SP}} cloud.

==Strategies==
See the [[:Category talk:Vagary|Vagary talk page]] for information on strategies.

==Alternative Battlefields==
In October 2018, new battlefields were added as an alternative means to unlock [[Reforged Empyrean Armor +1]] via [[Monisette]]. In these battlefields, players can face off directly against a Vagary boss of their choosing. These fights have no drops, as they are only meant for unlocking armor upgrades. Access requires completion of most of the [[Seekers_of_Adoulin_Missions|Seekers]] storyline.

The following battlefields have been added to [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]]:

*Vagary: [[Palloritus]] (Unlocks Head)
*Vagary: [[Plouton]] (Unlocks Body)
*Vagary: [[Putraxia]] (Unlocks Hands)
*Vagary: [[Perfidien]] (Unlocks Legs)
*Vagary: [[Rancibus]] (Unlocks Feet)

'''General Requirements:'''

*One to six players may take part in the battlefields.
*All party members must fulfill the necessary requirements and all must have the {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]].
*The {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]] is consumed upon entering the arena. It must be re-obtained in order to fight again.
**The key item may be obtained by trading a {{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|24px}} [[Befouled Water]] to the Odyssean Passage in [[Leafallia]].
***{{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|24px}} [[Befouled Water]] is dropped by Fomor enemies encountered in Inner and Outer Ra’Kaznar.

'''Mission Requirements:'''
*Putraxia / Rancibus / Pallitorus: [[Watery Grave]]
*Perfidien: [[Reckoning (Mission)]]
*Plouton: [[Abomination]]

'''Joining the Fray'''
To join a battlefield, inspect the '''Ominous Postern''' in the [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]] and select the battlefield of your choice.
*How to get to [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]]: https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Seekers_of_Adoulin_Mission_5-2-2
**Alternatively, [[Home Point]] #1 in [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]]

A time limit of 30 minutes (Earth time) is in place for the battle.
After the battle, you will receive a title befitting your victory.

*These battlefields will not grant experience points, capacity points, or treasure.
*These battlefields will not count toward the Vagary objective for Records of Eminence.
*These battlefields '''can''' be used to learn Blue Magic spells. ([[Cruel Joke]] from [[Palloritus]], [[Cesspool]] from [[Rancibus]] and [[Tearing Gust]] from [[Putraxia]])

|Intro Text='''[[Vagary]]''', introduced in the March 26th, 2015 update[http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/46531?p=545503#post545503], is a type of battle content that pits pioneers against members of the Xol Triumvirate, sinister forces that made their first appearance in the Seekers of Adoulin mission storyline.

The primary rewards from [[Vagary]] are item level 119 equipment, the ability to begin reforging iLvl 119 [[Reforged Empyrean Armor +1]], the materials used to synthesize Superior 2 armor, and materials used to upgrade [[:Category:Reforged Empyrean Armor +1|Reforged Empyrean Armor]] to 119 as below.

As of the September 16th, 2015 update[http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/48564-Sep-16-2015-%28JST%29-Version-Update?p=560551&viewfull=1#post560551], a new system for acquiring rewards from Vagary was implemented. Players may now receive rewards by interacting with the odyssean passage located in Leafallia (H-8) when in possession of all five ''Fabricated Ward'' Key Items dropped from each of the five Mega Boss Notorious Monsters as detailed below.

:'''Note''': [[Vagary]] does not scale with participants unlike other events. Any amount of players results in the same stats and difficulty of the opponents.

==Getting Started==
====Eligibility Requirements====
*Have installed and registered the [[Seekers of Adoulin]] expansion.

*Be of level 95 or higher.

*Be in a party or alliance of between 3 and 18 players.

*The party leader must have progressed beyond 5-3-2 in the [[:Category:Seekers of Adoulin Missions|Seekers of Adoulin mission]] storyline.
**Completed [[Seekers_of_Adoulin_Mission_5-3-2|Watery Grave]]. ''Party members other than the leader need not fulfill this prerequisite, but [[Seekers of Adoulin]] lore is deeply intertwined with Vagary content. Those who wish to enjoy the story without spoilers are advised to complete the missions first.''

*Only the party/alliance leader must be in possession of the requisite Key Item: {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]]

====Entry Key Items====
Players can obtain the necessary key items by trading vials of {{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|22}} [[Befouled Water]] dropped by [[:Category:Fomor|Fomor]]s in [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] and [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]] to the '''Odyssean Passage''' found in [[Leafallia]].
*The quickest ones to get to are taking the [[Augural Conveyor]] to [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] then following the path to [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]].

====Entry Locations====
Players enter [[Vagary]] through various gates in [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] that tie [[Ulbuka]] to the otherworldly location. There are three such gates, and the layout of the zone and the notorious monster of the triumvirate found within differ accordingly. 
'''''The key items required for entry are the same for all three gates.'''''

* [[:Category:Vagary#Deathborne_Gate:_Palloritus|Deathborne Gate]] is located at (M-7).

* [[:Category:Vagary#Duskbrood_Gate:_Putraxia|Duskbrood Gate]] is located at (N-6).

* [[:Category:Vagary#Brash_Gate:_Rancibus|Brash Gate]] is located at (N-7).

====Progression====
Vagary occurs in the instanced zone: [[Outer Ra'Kaznar (U)]]. There is a 45 minute time limit.

====Reward Redemption====
After obtaining the full set of Fabricated Ward Key Items:
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of impurity]] (Putraxia)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of miasma]] (Rancibus)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of biting winds]] (Palloritus)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of ashen wings]] (Perfidien)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of the false king]] (Plouton)
Players can receive a reward by clicking on the '''Odyssean Passage''' in [[Leafallia]] (H-8) by trading the set of five Fabricated Wards in exchange for one of three choices: 
# The player may choose any piece of equipment that drops off of any monster in any Vagary zone, except for {{ItemIcon|Tartarus Platemail|22}} {{tooltip|text=[[Tartarus Platemail]]|tooltip=[[File:Tartarus Platemail description.png]]}}.
# The player may choose any synthesis or upgrade material that drops off of the Vagary Mega Boss Notorious Monsters, or an {{ItemIcon|Etched Memory|22}} [[Etched Memory]].
# The player may receive a reward at random.
:::'''''This may be any piece of equipment, including {{ItemIcon|Tartarus Platemail|22}} {{tooltip|text=[[Tartarus Platemail]]|tooltip=[[File:Tartarus Platemail description.png]]}}, any Mega Boss material, as well as {{ItemIcon|Codex of Etchings|22}} [[Codex of Etchings]] or an {{ItemIcon|Etched Memory|22}} [[Etched Memory]].'''''

**It also prevents it from casting the related Elemental magic. Highly recommended to kill all {{dark}} {{color|dark|Dark}} Elementals (including the one next to where Putraxia spawns) to prevent the casting of [[Death]] as well as Fire and Thunder so that Scholar can use Fusion.

==Additional Notorious Monsters==

Two additional NMs may be spawned in any zone by fulfilling certain hidden objectives. When each objective is completed, the player who initially took the alliance into the zone will receive a message that their [[Prototype pearl of ashen wings]] or [[Prototype pearl of the false king]] has evolved. No other player will receive any indication that an objective has been completed.
* When all three objectives are completed, the NM will immediately spawn on the player who took the alliance into the zone, regardless of where the objective was completed.
* Both NMs may be alive at the same time.

If any player in the alliance dies at any point before the NMs spawn, it is no longer possible to spawn them on that run.
If any player in the alliance dies during the fight against either NMs, it will immediately Warp and it will no longer be possible to spawn either NM on that run.

[[Prototype pearl of ashen wings]] and [[Prototype pearl of the false king]] are not lost upon entry to the zone, only when their respective NMs spawn.
Only the player who initially took the alliance into the zone will have their prototype pearls consumed.

Each NM grants a 15-minute time extension upon defeat.

Shortly after reaching 90% HP, the NM will perform an {{icon|SP}} cloud animation and pick a random element to align to. Light and Dark will never be selected.
* The NM will absorb the aligned element, take 0 damage from the descendant element, and become highly resistant to all damage except the ascendant element, including physical damage.
* The color of the {{icon|SP}} cloud represents the element the NM is strong against. The correct element to use against the NM is '''two''' elements ascendant from the color of the cloud.
* If no elemental damage of the six primary elements (including Skillchain damage) is ever used against the NM, it will not gain damage resistance. '''The NMs may be defeated quickly by using only physical Weapon Skills which do not form Skillchains with each other.'''
* Dealing more than a very small amount of damage of the aligned element will trigger an [[Encumbrance]] effect on all players, making the fight much more difficult.
** The duration of the [[Encumbrance]] effect increases with the amount of HP the boss recovers from the elemental damage.
* Magic of the element the NM is weak to will proc {{Blue!}} and provide a message to everyone in the alliance informing them of the correct element.
* Performing a [[Skillchain]] of any level including the element the NM is weak to will proc {{Red!}} and grant a substantial magic damage bonus.
** Failing to do this within a certain period of time will cause the NM to Warp.
** Shortly after the Magic Burst window ends, or if the proc is not achieved within a short period of time, the boss will pick a new element and display another {{icon|SP}} cloud.

==Strategies==
See the [[:Category talk:Vagary|Vagary talk page]] for information on strategies.

==Alternative Battlefields==
In October 2018, new battlefields were added as an alternative means to unlock [[Reforged Empyrean Armor +1]] via [[Monisette]]. In these battlefields, players can face off directly against a Vagary boss of their choosing. These fights have no drops, as they are only meant for unlocking armor upgrades. Access requires completion of most of the [[Seekers_of_Adoulin_Missions|Seekers]] storyline.

The following battlefields have been added to [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]]:

*Vagary: [[Palloritus]] (Unlocks Head)
*Vagary: [[Plouton]] (Unlocks Body)
*Vagary: [[Putraxia]] (Unlocks Hands)
*Vagary: [[Perfidien]] (Unlocks Legs)
*Vagary: [[Rancibus]] (Unlocks Feet)

'''General Requirements:'''

*One to six players may take part in the battlefields.
*All party members must fulfill the necessary requirements and all must have the {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]].
*The {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]] is consumed upon entering the arena. It must be re-obtained in order to fight again.
**The key item may be obtained by trading a {{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|24px}} [[Befouled Water]] to the Odyssean Passage in [[Leafallia]].
***{{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|24px}} [[Befouled Water]] is dropped by Fomor enemies encountered in Inner and Outer Ra’Kaznar.

'''Mission Requirements:'''
*Putraxia / Rancibus / Pallitorus: [[Watery Grave]]
*Perfidien: [[Reckoning (Mission)]]
*Plouton: [[Abomination]]

'''Joining the Fray'''
To join a battlefield, inspect the '''Ominous Postern''' in the [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]] and select the battlefield of your choice.
*How to get to [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]]: https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Seekers_of_Adoulin_Mission_5-2-2
**Alternatively, [[Home Point]] #1 in [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]]

A time limit of 30 minutes (Earth time) is in place for the battle.
After the battle, you will receive a title befitting your victory.

*These battlefields will not grant experience points, capacity points, or treasure.
*These battlefields will not count toward the Vagary objective for Records of Eminence.
*These battlefields '''can''' be used to learn Blue Magic spells. ([[Cruel Joke]] from [[Palloritus]], [[Cesspool]] from [[Rancibus]] and [[Tearing Gust]] from [[Putraxia]])

|Intro Text='''[[Vagary]]''', introduced in the March 26th, 2015 update[http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/46531?p=545503#post545503], is a type of battle content that pits pioneers against members of the Xol Triumvirate, sinister forces that made their first appearance in the Seekers of Adoulin mission storyline.

The primary rewards from [[Vagary]] are item level 119 equipment, the ability to begin reforging iLvl 119 [[Reforged Empyrean Armor +1]], the materials used to synthesize Superior 2 armor, and materials used to upgrade [[:Category:Reforged Empyrean Armor +1|Reforged Empyrean Armor]] to 119 as below.

As of the September 16th, 2015 update[http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/48564-Sep-16-2015-%28JST%29-Version-Update?p=560551&viewfull=1#post560551], a new system for acquiring rewards from Vagary was implemented. Players may now receive rewards by interacting with the odyssean passage located in Leafallia (H-8) when in possession of all five ''Fabricated Ward'' Key Items dropped from each of the five Mega Boss Notorious Monsters as detailed below.

:'''Note''': [[Vagary]] does not scale with participants unlike other events. Any amount of players results in the same stats and difficulty of the opponents.

==Getting Started==
====Eligibility Requirements====
*Have installed and registered the [[Seekers of Adoulin]] expansion.

*Be of level 95 or higher.

*Be in a party or alliance of between 3 and 18 players.

*The party leader must have progressed beyond 5-3-2 in the [[:Category:Seekers of Adoulin Missions|Seekers of Adoulin mission]] storyline.
**Completed [[Seekers_of_Adoulin_Mission_5-3-2|Watery Grave]]. ''Party members other than the leader need not fulfill this prerequisite, but [[Seekers of Adoulin]] lore is deeply intertwined with Vagary content. Those who wish to enjoy the story without spoilers are advised to complete the missions first.''

*Only the party/alliance leader must be in possession of the requisite Key Item: {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]]

====Entry Key Items====
Players can obtain the necessary key items by trading vials of {{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|22}} [[Befouled Water]] dropped by [[:Category:Fomor|Fomor]]s in [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] and [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]] to the '''Odyssean Passage''' found in [[Leafallia]].
*The quickest ones to get to are taking the [[Augural Conveyor]] to [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] then following the path to [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]].

====Entry Locations====
Players enter [[Vagary]] through various gates in [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] that tie [[Ulbuka]] to the otherworldly location. There are three such gates, and the layout of the zone and the notorious monster of the triumvirate found within differ accordingly. 
'''''The key items required for entry are the same for all three gates.'''''

* [[:Category:Vagary#Deathborne_Gate:_Palloritus|Deathborne Gate]] is located at (M-7).

* [[:Category:Vagary#Duskbrood_Gate:_Putraxia|Duskbrood Gate]] is located at (N-6).

* [[:Category:Vagary#Brash_Gate:_Rancibus|Brash Gate]] is located at (N-7).

====Progression====
Vagary occurs in the instanced zone: [[Outer Ra'Kaznar (U)]]. There is a 45 minute time limit.

====Reward Redemption====
After obtaining the full set of Fabricated Ward Key Items:
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of impurity]] (Putraxia)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of miasma]] (Rancibus)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of biting winds]] (Palloritus)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of ashen wings]] (Perfidien)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of the false king]] (Plouton)
Players can receive a reward by clicking on the '''Odyssean Passage''' in [[Leafallia]] (H-8) by trading the set of five Fabricated Wards in exchange for one of three choices: 
# The player may choose any piece of equipment that drops off of any monster in any Vagary zone, except for {{ItemIcon|Tartarus Platemail|22}} {{tooltip|text=[[Tartarus Platemail]]|tooltip=[[File:Tartarus Platemail description.png]]}}.
# The player may choose any synthesis or upgrade material that drops off of the Vagary Mega Boss Notorious Monsters, or an {{ItemIcon|Etched Memory|22}} [[Etched Memory]].
# The player may receive a reward at random.
:::'''''This may be any piece of equipment, including {{ItemIcon|Tartarus Platemail|22}} {{tooltip|text=[[Tartarus Platemail]]|tooltip=[[File:Tartarus Platemail description.png]]}}, any Mega Boss material, as well as {{ItemIcon|Codex of Etchings|22}} [[Codex of Etchings]] or an {{ItemIcon|Etched Memory|22}} [[Etched Memory]].'''''

This area contains many [[:Category:Elemental|Elementals]]. Defeating each type of Elemental will prevent [[Putraxia]] from absorbing the analogous type of {{elements}} '''Elemental''' damage.

*Elementals will {{magic}} '''Magic''' aggro and {{links}} '''Link'''.

**It also prevents it from casting the related Elemental magic. Highly recommended to kill all {{dark}} {{color|dark|Dark}} Elementals (including the one next to where Putraxia spawns) to prevent the casting of [[Death]] as well as Fire and Thunder so that Scholar can use Fusion.

There are columns in the middle of the room, numbered #1~#6. Upon selecting one, each will despawn and the enemy mobs will spawn scattered around room. All of the mobs have a weakness that they take heightened elemental damage from as follows:

After defeating Brimboil, six new columns will appear and, again, only one of the six contains the NM wave. However, now, each wave of amorphs is more populous. 
Upon activation of a pillar, the following messages will be displayed:
*"Fragments of scattered memories begin to coalesce!" means Rancibus will '''not''' spawn.
*"A thousand scattered memories begin to take shape!" means Rancibus will spawn at the start with the wave, or after a certain amount of waves have been cleared.

==Additional Notorious Monsters==

Two additional NMs may be spawned in any zone by fulfilling certain hidden objectives. When each objective is completed, the player who initially took the alliance into the zone will receive a message that their [[Prototype pearl of ashen wings]] or [[Prototype pearl of the false king]] has evolved. No other player will receive any indication that an objective has been completed.
* When all three objectives are completed, the NM will immediately spawn on the player who took the alliance into the zone, regardless of where the objective was completed.
* Both NMs may be alive at the same time.

If any player in the alliance dies at any point before the NMs spawn, it is no longer possible to spawn them on that run.
If any player in the alliance dies during the fight against either NMs, it will immediately Warp and it will no longer be possible to spawn either NM on that run.

[[Prototype pearl of ashen wings]] and [[Prototype pearl of the false king]] are not lost upon entry to the zone, only when their respective NMs spawn.
Only the player who initially took the alliance into the zone will have their prototype pearls consumed.

Each NM grants a 15-minute time extension upon defeat.

Shortly after reaching 90% HP, the NM will perform an {{icon|SP}} cloud animation and pick a random element to align to. Light and Dark will never be selected.
* The NM will absorb the aligned element, take 0 damage from the descendant element, and become highly resistant to all damage except the ascendant element, including physical damage.
* The color of the {{icon|SP}} cloud represents the element the NM is strong against. The correct element to use against the NM is '''two''' elements ascendant from the color of the cloud.
* If no elemental damage of the six primary elements (including Skillchain damage) is ever used against the NM, it will not gain damage resistance. '''The NMs may be defeated quickly by using only physical Weapon Skills which do not form Skillchains with each other.'''
* Dealing more than a very small amount of damage of the aligned element will trigger an [[Encumbrance]] effect on all players, making the fight much more difficult.
** The duration of the [[Encumbrance]] effect increases with the amount of HP the boss recovers from the elemental damage.
* Magic of the element the NM is weak to will proc {{Blue!}} and provide a message to everyone in the alliance informing them of the correct element.
* Performing a [[Skillchain]] of any level including the element the NM is weak to will proc {{Red!}} and grant a substantial magic damage bonus.
** Failing to do this within a certain period of time will cause the NM to Warp.
** Shortly after the Magic Burst window ends, or if the proc is not achieved within a short period of time, the boss will pick a new element and display another {{icon|SP}} cloud.

==Alternative Battlefields==
In October 2018, new battlefields were added as an alternative means to unlock [[Reforged Empyrean Armor +1]] via [[Monisette]]. In these battlefields, players can face off directly against a Vagary boss of their choosing. These fights have no drops, as they are only meant for unlocking armor upgrades. Access requires completion of most of the [[Seekers_of_Adoulin_Missions|Seekers]] storyline.

The following battlefields have been added to [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]]:

*Vagary: [[Palloritus]] (Unlocks Head)
*Vagary: [[Plouton]] (Unlocks Body)
*Vagary: [[Putraxia]] (Unlocks Hands)
*Vagary: [[Perfidien]] (Unlocks Legs)
*Vagary: [[Rancibus]] (Unlocks Feet)

'''General Requirements:'''

*One to six players may take part in the battlefields.
*All party members must fulfill the necessary requirements and all must have the {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]].
*The {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]] is consumed upon entering the arena. It must be re-obtained in order to fight again.
**The key item may be obtained by trading a {{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|24px}} [[Befouled Water]] to the Odyssean Passage in [[Leafallia]].
***{{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|24px}} [[Befouled Water]] is dropped by Fomor enemies encountered in Inner and Outer Ra’Kaznar.

'''Mission Requirements:'''
*Putraxia / Rancibus / Pallitorus: [[Watery Grave]]
*Perfidien: [[Reckoning (Mission)]]
*Plouton: [[Abomination]]

'''Joining the Fray'''
To join a battlefield, inspect the '''Ominous Postern''' in the [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]] and select the battlefield of your choice.
*How to get to [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]]: https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Seekers_of_Adoulin_Mission_5-2-2
**Alternatively, [[Home Point]] #1 in [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]]

A time limit of 30 minutes (Earth time) is in place for the battle.
After the battle, you will receive a title befitting your victory.

*These battlefields will not grant experience points, capacity points, or treasure.
*These battlefields will not count toward the Vagary objective for Records of Eminence.
*These battlefields '''can''' be used to learn Blue Magic spells. ([[Cruel Joke]] from [[Palloritus]], [[Cesspool]] from [[Rancibus]] and [[Tearing Gust]] from [[Putraxia]])

|Intro Text='''[[Vagary]]''', introduced in the March 26th, 2015 update[http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/46531?p=545503#post545503], is a type of battle content that pits pioneers against members of the Xol Triumvirate, sinister forces that made their first appearance in the Seekers of Adoulin mission storyline.

The primary rewards from [[Vagary]] are item level 119 equipment, the ability to begin reforging iLvl 119 [[Reforged Empyrean Armor +1]], the materials used to synthesize Superior 2 armor, and materials used to upgrade [[:Category:Reforged Empyrean Armor +1|Reforged Empyrean Armor]] to 119 as below.

As of the September 16th, 2015 update[http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/48564-Sep-16-2015-%28JST%29-Version-Update?p=560551&viewfull=1#post560551], a new system for acquiring rewards from Vagary was implemented. Players may now receive rewards by interacting with the odyssean passage located in Leafallia (H-8) when in possession of all five ''Fabricated Ward'' Key Items dropped from each of the five Mega Boss Notorious Monsters as detailed below.

:'''Note''': [[Vagary]] does not scale with participants unlike other events. Any amount of players results in the same stats and difficulty of the opponents.

==Getting Started==
====Eligibility Requirements====
*Have installed and registered the [[Seekers of Adoulin]] expansion.

*Be of level 95 or higher.

*Be in a party or alliance of between 3 and 18 players.

*The party leader must have progressed beyond 5-3-2 in the [[:Category:Seekers of Adoulin Missions|Seekers of Adoulin mission]] storyline.
**Completed [[Seekers_of_Adoulin_Mission_5-3-2|Watery Grave]]. ''Party members other than the leader need not fulfill this prerequisite, but [[Seekers of Adoulin]] lore is deeply intertwined with Vagary content. Those who wish to enjoy the story without spoilers are advised to complete the missions first.''

*Only the party/alliance leader must be in possession of the requisite Key Item: {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]]

====Entry Key Items====
Players can obtain the necessary key items by trading vials of {{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|22}} [[Befouled Water]] dropped by [[:Category:Fomor|Fomor]]s in [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] and [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]] to the '''Odyssean Passage''' found in [[Leafallia]].
*The quickest ones to get to are taking the [[Augural Conveyor]] to [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] then following the path to [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]].

====Entry Locations====
Players enter [[Vagary]] through various gates in [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] that tie [[Ulbuka]] to the otherworldly location. There are three such gates, and the layout of the zone and the notorious monster of the triumvirate found within differ accordingly. 
'''''The key items required for entry are the same for all three gates.'''''

* [[:Category:Vagary#Deathborne_Gate:_Palloritus|Deathborne Gate]] is located at (M-7).

* [[:Category:Vagary#Duskbrood_Gate:_Putraxia|Duskbrood Gate]] is located at (N-6).

* [[:Category:Vagary#Brash_Gate:_Rancibus|Brash Gate]] is located at (N-7).

====Progression====
Vagary occurs in the instanced zone: [[Outer Ra'Kaznar (U)]]. There is a 45 minute time limit.

====Reward Redemption====
After obtaining the full set of Fabricated Ward Key Items:
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of impurity]] (Putraxia)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of miasma]] (Rancibus)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of biting winds]] (Palloritus)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of ashen wings]] (Perfidien)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of the false king]] (Plouton)
Players can receive a reward by clicking on the '''Odyssean Passage''' in [[Leafallia]] (H-8) by trading the set of five Fabricated Wards in exchange for one of three choices: 
# The player may choose any piece of equipment that drops off of any monster in any Vagary zone, except for {{ItemIcon|Tartarus Platemail|22}} {{tooltip|text=[[Tartarus Platemail]]|tooltip=[[File:Tartarus Platemail description.png]]}}.
# The player may choose any synthesis or upgrade material that drops off of the Vagary Mega Boss Notorious Monsters, or an {{ItemIcon|Etched Memory|22}} [[Etched Memory]].
# The player may receive a reward at random.
:::'''''This may be any piece of equipment, including {{ItemIcon|Tartarus Platemail|22}} {{tooltip|text=[[Tartarus Platemail]]|tooltip=[[File:Tartarus Platemail description.png]]}}, any Mega Boss material, as well as {{ItemIcon|Codex of Etchings|22}} [[Codex of Etchings]] or an {{ItemIcon|Etched Memory|22}} [[Etched Memory]].'''''

===Monthly Adventurer Campaigns===
There is one campaign that may run any given month.

[[File:Duskbrood.png|thumbnail|Map]]

This area contains many [[:Category:Elemental|elementals]]. Defeating each type of elemental will prevent [[Putraxia]] from absorbing the analogous type of elemental damage.
*Elementals will magic aggro and link.
*Defeating all elementals of a specific type will stop [[Putraxia]] from absorbing that type of elemental damage.
**It also prevents it from casting the related elemental magic. Highly recommended to kill all dark elementals (including the one next to where Putraxia spawns) to prevent the casting of [[Death]] as well as Fire and Thunder so that Scholar can use Fusion.

After defeating Murkcrawler, six new columns will appear and, again, only one of the six contains the NM wave. 
:'''''It currently seems to be completely random as to which column contains the NM wave.'''''

* '''Tier II NM:''' [[Brimboil]] It will split if it takes over a certain amount of damage(~3500) in a single hit. Each copy has less HP than the NM and but also splits in the same manner. Each will cast [[Meteor]] when the main Brimboil does. It is recommended that physical DDs auto-attack and don't use weapon skills and for magical DDs to use only low tier nukes.

After defeating Brimboil, six new columns will appear and, again, only one of the six contains the NM wave. However, now, each wave of amorphs is more populous. 
Upon activation of a pillar, the following messages will be displayed:
*"Fragments of scattered memories begin to coalesce!" means Rancibus will '''not''' spawn.
*"A thousand scattered memories begin to take shape!" means Rancibus will spawn at the start with the wave, or after a certain amount of waves have been cleared.

==Additional Notorious Monsters==

Two additional NMs may be spawned in any zone by fulfilling certain hidden objectives. When each objective is completed, the player who initially took the alliance into the zone will receive a message that their [[Prototype pearl of ashen wings]] or [[Prototype pearl of the false king]] has evolved. No other player will receive any indication that an objective has been completed.
* When all three objectives are completed, the NM will immediately spawn on the player who took the alliance into the zone, regardless of where the objective was completed.
* Both NMs may be alive at the same time.

If any player in the alliance dies at any point before the NMs spawn, it is no longer possible to spawn them on that run.
If any player in the alliance dies during the fight against either NMs, it will immediately Warp and it will no longer be possible to spawn either NM on that run.

[[Prototype pearl of ashen wings]] and [[Prototype pearl of the false king]] are not lost upon entry to the zone, only when their respective NMs spawn.
Only the player who initially took the alliance into the zone will have their prototype pearls consumed.

Each NM grants a 15-minute time extension upon defeat.

Shortly after reaching 90% HP, the NM will perform an {{icon|SP}} cloud animation and pick a random element to align to. Light and Dark will never be selected.
* The NM will absorb the aligned element, take 0 damage from the descendant element, and become highly resistant to all damage except the ascendant element, including physical damage.
* The color of the {{icon|SP}} cloud represents the element the NM is strong against. The correct element to use against the NM is '''two''' elements ascendant from the color of the cloud.
* If no elemental damage of the six primary elements (including Skillchain damage) is ever used against the NM, it will not gain damage resistance. '''The NMs may be defeated quickly by using only physical Weapon Skills which do not form Skillchains with each other.'''
* Dealing more than a very small amount of damage of the aligned element will trigger an [[Encumbrance]] effect on all players, making the fight much more difficult.
** The duration of the [[Encumbrance]] effect increases with the amount of HP the boss recovers from the elemental damage.
* Magic of the element the NM is weak to will proc {{Blue!}} and provide a message to everyone in the alliance informing them of the correct element.
* Performing a [[Skillchain]] of any level including the element the NM is weak to will proc {{Red!}} and grant a substantial magic damage bonus.
** Failing to do this within a certain period of time will cause the NM to Warp.
** Shortly after the Magic Burst window ends, or if the proc is not achieved within a short period of time, the boss will pick a new element and display another {{icon|SP}} cloud.

==Strategies==
See the [[:Category talk:Vagary|Vagary talk page]] for information on strategies.

==Alternative Battlefields==
In October 2018, new battlefields were added as an alternative means to unlock [[Reforged Empyrean Armor +1]] via [[Monisette]]. In these battlefields, players can face off directly against a Vagary boss of their choosing. These fights have no drops, as they are only meant for unlocking armor upgrades. Access requires completion of most of the [[Seekers_of_Adoulin_Missions|Seekers]] storyline.

The following battlefields have been added to [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]]:

*Vagary: [[Palloritus]] (Unlocks Head)
*Vagary: [[Plouton]] (Unlocks Body)
*Vagary: [[Putraxia]] (Unlocks Hands)
*Vagary: [[Perfidien]] (Unlocks Legs)
*Vagary: [[Rancibus]] (Unlocks Feet)

'''General Requirements:'''

*One to six players may take part in the battlefields.
*All party members must fulfill the necessary requirements and all must have the {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]].
*The {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]] is consumed upon entering the arena. It must be re-obtained in order to fight again.
**The key item may be obtained by trading a {{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|24px}} [[Befouled Water]] to the Odyssean Passage in [[Leafallia]].
***{{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|24px}} [[Befouled Water]] is dropped by Fomor enemies encountered in Inner and Outer Ra’Kaznar.

'''Mission Requirements:'''
*Putraxia / Rancibus / Pallitorus: [[Watery Grave]]
*Perfidien: [[Reckoning (Mission)]]
*Plouton: [[Abomination]]

'''Joining the Fray'''
To join a battlefield, inspect the '''Ominous Postern''' in the [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]] and select the battlefield of your choice.
*How to get to [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]]: https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Seekers_of_Adoulin_Mission_5-2-2
**Alternatively, [[Home Point]] #1 in [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]]

A time limit of 30 minutes (Earth time) is in place for the battle.
After the battle, you will receive a title befitting your victory.

*These battlefields will not grant experience points, capacity points, or treasure.
*These battlefields will not count toward the Vagary objective for Records of Eminence.
*These battlefields '''can''' be used to learn Blue Magic spells. ([[Cruel Joke]] from [[Palloritus]], [[Cesspool]] from [[Rancibus]] and [[Tearing Gust]] from [[Putraxia]])

|Intro Text='''[[Vagary]]''', introduced in the March 26th, 2015 update[http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/46531?p=545503#post545503], is a type of battle content that pits pioneers against members of the Xol Triumvirate, sinister forces that made their first appearance in the Seekers of Adoulin mission storyline.

The primary rewards from [[Vagary]] are item level 119 equipment, the ability to begin reforging iLvl 119 [[Reforged Empyrean Armor +1]], the materials used to synthesize Superior 2 armor, and materials used to upgrade [[:Category:Reforged Empyrean Armor +1|Reforged Empyrean Armor]] to 119 as below.

As of the September 16th, 2015 update[http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/48564-Sep-16-2015-%28JST%29-Version-Update?p=560551&viewfull=1#post560551], a new system for acquiring rewards from Vagary was implemented. Players may now receive rewards by interacting with the odyssean passage located in Leafallia (H-8) when in possession of all five ''Fabricated Ward'' Key Items dropped from each of the five Mega Boss Notorious Monsters as detailed below.

:'''Note''': [[Vagary]] does not scale with participants unlike other events. Any amount of players results in the same stats and difficulty of the opponents.

==Getting Started==
====Eligibility Requirements====
*Have installed and registered the [[Seekers of Adoulin]] expansion.

*Be of level 95 or higher.

*Be in a party or alliance of between 3 and 18 players.

*The party leader must have progressed beyond 5-3-2 in the [[:Category:Seekers of Adoulin Missions|Seekers of Adoulin mission]] storyline.
**Completed [[Seekers_of_Adoulin_Mission_5-3-2|Watery Grave]]. ''Party members other than the leader need not fulfill this prerequisite, but [[Seekers of Adoulin]] lore is deeply intertwined with Vagary content. Those who wish to enjoy the story without spoilers are advised to complete the missions first.''

*Only the party/alliance leader must be in possession of the requisite Key Item: {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]]

====Entry Key Items====
Players can obtain the necessary key items by trading vials of {{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|22}} [[Befouled Water]] dropped by [[:Category:Fomor|Fomor]]s in [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] and [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]] to the '''Odyssean Passage''' found in [[Leafallia]].
*The quickest ones to get to are taking the [[Augural Conveyor]] to [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] then following the path to [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]].

====Entry Locations====
Players enter [[Vagary]] through various gates in [[Outer Ra'Kaznar]] that tie [[Ulbuka]] to the otherworldly location. There are three such gates, and the layout of the zone and the notorious monster of the triumvirate found within differ accordingly. 
'''''The key items required for entry are the same for all three gates.'''''

* [[:Category:Vagary#Deathborne_Gate:_Palloritus|Deathborne Gate]] is located at (M-7).

* [[:Category:Vagary#Duskbrood_Gate:_Putraxia|Duskbrood Gate]] is located at (N-6).

* [[:Category:Vagary#Brash_Gate:_Rancibus|Brash Gate]] is located at (N-7).

====Progression====
Vagary occurs in the instanced zone: [[Outer Ra'Kaznar (U)]]. There is a 45 minute time limit.

====Reward Redemption====
After obtaining the full set of Fabricated Ward Key Items:
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of impurity]] (Putraxia)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of miasma]] (Rancibus)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of biting winds]] (Palloritus)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of ashen wings]] (Perfidien)
*{{KI}} [[Fabricated ward of the false king]] (Plouton)
Players can receive a reward by clicking on the '''Odyssean Passage''' in [[Leafallia]] (H-8) by trading the set of five Fabricated Wards in exchange for one of three choices: 
# The player may choose any piece of equipment that drops off of any monster in any Vagary zone, except for {{ItemIcon|Tartarus Platemail|22}} {{tooltip|text=[[Tartarus Platemail]]|tooltip=[[File:Tartarus Platemail description.png]]}}.
# The player may choose any synthesis or upgrade material that drops off of the Vagary Mega Boss Notorious Monsters, or an {{ItemIcon|Etched Memory|22}} [[Etched Memory]].
# The player may receive a reward at random.
:::'''''This may be any piece of equipment, including {{ItemIcon|Tartarus Platemail|22}} {{tooltip|text=[[Tartarus Platemail]]|tooltip=[[File:Tartarus Platemail description.png]]}}, any Mega Boss material, as well as {{ItemIcon|Codex of Etchings|22}} [[Codex of Etchings]] or an {{ItemIcon|Etched Memory|22}} [[Etched Memory]].'''''

===Monthly Adventurer Campaigns===
There is one campaign that may run any given month.

===Duskbrood Gate: [[Image:Category-Macuil.jpg|50px|link=]] [[Putraxia]]===
[[File:Duskbrood.png|thumbnail|Map]]

This area contains many [[:Category:Elemental|elementals]]. Defeating each type of elemental will prevent [[Putraxia]] from absorbing the analogous type of elemental damage.
*Elementals will magic aggro and link.
*Defeating all elementals of a specific type will stop [[Putraxia]] from absorbing that type of elemental damage.
**It also prevents it from casting the related elemental magic. Highly recommended to kill all dark elementals (including the one next to where Putraxia spawns) to prevent the casting of [[Death]] as well as Fire and Thunder so that Scholar can use Fusion.

There are columns in the middle of the room, numbered #1~#6. Upon selecting one, each will despawn and the enemy mobs will spawn scattered around room. All of the mobs have a weakness that they take heightened elemental damage from as follows:

After defeating Brimboil, six new columns will appear and, again, only one of the six contains the NM wave. However, now, each wave of amorphs is more populous. 
Upon activation of a pillar, the following messages will be displayed:

==Additional Notorious Monsters==

Two additional NMs may be spawned in any zone by fulfilling certain hidden objectives. When each objective is completed, the player who initially took the alliance into the zone will receive a message that their [[Prototype pearl of ashen wings]] or [[Prototype pearl of the false king]] has evolved. No other player will receive any indication that an objective has been completed.
* When all three objectives are completed, the NM will immediately spawn on the player who took the alliance into the zone, regardless of where the objective was completed.
* Both NMs may be alive at the same time.

If any player in the alliance dies at any point before the NMs spawn, it is no longer possible to spawn them on that run.
If any player in the alliance dies during the fight against either NMs, it will immediately Warp and it will no longer be possible to spawn either NM on that run.

[[Prototype pearl of ashen wings]] and [[Prototype pearl of the false king]] are not lost upon entry to the zone, only when their respective NMs spawn.
Only the player who initially took the alliance into the zone will have their prototype pearls consumed.

Each NM grants a 15-minute time extension upon defeat.

Shortly after reaching 90% HP, the NM will perform an {{icon|SP}} cloud animation and pick a random element to align to. Light and Dark will never be selected.
* The NM will absorb the aligned element, take 0 damage from the descendant element, and become highly resistant to all damage except the ascendant element, including physical damage.
* The color of the {{icon|SP}} cloud represents the element the NM is strong against. The correct element to use against the NM is '''two''' elements ascendant from the color of the cloud.
* If no elemental damage of the six primary elements (including Skillchain damage) is ever used against the NM, it will not gain damage resistance. '''The NMs may be defeated quickly by using only physical Weapon Skills which do not form Skillchains with each other.'''
* Dealing more than a very small amount of damage of the aligned element will trigger an [[Encumbrance]] effect on all players, making the fight much more difficult.
** The duration of the [[Encumbrance]] effect increases with the amount of HP the boss recovers from the elemental damage.
* Magic of the element the NM is weak to will proc {{Blue!}} and provide a message to everyone in the alliance informing them of the correct element.
* Performing a [[Skillchain]] of any level including the element the NM is weak to will proc {{Red!}} and grant a substantial magic damage bonus.
** Failing to do this within a certain period of time will cause the NM to Warp.
** Shortly after the Magic Burst window ends, or if the proc is not achieved within a short period of time, the boss will pick a new element and display another {{icon|SP}} cloud.

==Strategies==
See the [[:Category talk:Vagary|Vagary talk page]] for information on strategies.

==Alternative Battlefields==
In October 2018, new battlefields were added as an alternative means to unlock [[Reforged Empyrean Armor +1]] via [[Monisette]]. In these battlefields, players can face off directly against a Vagary boss of their choosing. These fights have no drops, as they are only meant for unlocking armor upgrades. Access requires completion of most of the [[Seekers_of_Adoulin_Missions|Seekers]] storyline.

The following battlefields have been added to [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]]:

*Vagary: [[Palloritus]] (Unlocks Head)
*Vagary: [[Plouton]] (Unlocks Body)
*Vagary: [[Putraxia]] (Unlocks Hands)
*Vagary: [[Perfidien]] (Unlocks Legs)
*Vagary: [[Rancibus]] (Unlocks Feet)

'''General Requirements:'''

*One to six players may take part in the battlefields.
*All party members must fulfill the necessary requirements and all must have the {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]].
*The {{KI}} [[Prototype sigil pearl]] is consumed upon entering the arena. It must be re-obtained in order to fight again.
**The key item may be obtained by trading a {{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|24px}} [[Befouled Water]] to the Odyssean Passage in [[Leafallia]].
***{{ItemIcon|Befouled Water|24px}} [[Befouled Water]] is dropped by Fomor enemies encountered in Inner and Outer Ra’Kaznar.

'''Mission Requirements:'''
*Putraxia / Rancibus / Pallitorus: [[Watery Grave]]
*Perfidien: [[Reckoning (Mission)]]
*Plouton: [[Abomination]]

'''Joining the Fray'''
To join a battlefield, inspect the '''Ominous Postern''' in the [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]] and select the battlefield of your choice.
*How to get to [[Ra'Kaznar Turris]]: https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Seekers_of_Adoulin_Mission_5-2-2
**Alternatively, [[Home Point]] #1 in [[Ra'Kaznar Inner Court]]

A time limit of 30 minutes (Earth time) is in place for the battle.
After the battle, you will receive a title befitting your victory.

*These battlefields will not grant experience points, capacity points, or treasure.
*These battlefields will not count toward the Vagary objective for Records of Eminence.
*These battlefields '''can''' be used to learn Blue Magic spells. ([[Cruel Joke]] from [[Palloritus]], [[Cesspool]] from [[Rancibus]] and [[Tearing Gust]] from [[Putraxia]])

* The FastCS addon crashes this cutscene.
* FPS needs to be capped at 30 (if you changed it). If using Windower, use //config FrameRateDivisor 2.
* If it does freeze, you can run `//lua unloadall` then `//exec autoload/autoload`, and it should recover from the frozen cutscene.
* Pressing Print Screen Key may also possibly break you out of soft lock.
|}

==Preparation==
*{{color|red|Note:}} Before heading out to [[Arrapago Reef]], you will need to obtain a {{ItemIcon|Hamsi|24}} [[Hamsi]].
**This can be purchased from [[Wahnid]] (H-11) in [[Aht Urhgan Whitegate]], bought from the [[Auction House]] or easily fished from [[Aht Urghan Whitegate]] with zero fishing skill.
**Wahnid is open from 1:00-18:00, closed on [[Lightsday]].
***The item is ''not automatically restocked''. It is only available if previously sold to the guild.
*You will also need a {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]]. Alternatively, [[Thief]] can use [[Skeleton Key]] and or [[Thief's_Tools|Thief Tools]].
**You can obtain the key by examining the '''???''' once per game day at (I-7) in [[Caedarva Mire]] Map 1 (in the vicinity of the small pond containing [[Jnun]]).
**You will need at least 2 more keys for the upcoming steps, so if you are with multiple people/characters, each one should grab a key.
**The Survival Guide teleport to [[Arrapago Reef]] (via Arrapago Is.) and running south will exit to [[Caedarva Mire]] (I-6).
***[[Escape]] from [[Arrapago Reef]] will put you in [[Caedarva Mire]] (I-6) as well.
***Alternatively, you can use the [[Azouph Isle Staging Point]] (Leujaoam Sanctum), exit [[Nashmau]] at (H-6) or use the [[Voidwatch]] warp to Caedarva Mire.

*Head to [[Arrapago Reef]] Map 1 and interact with the '''???''' at the North East corner of (H-10) on a ship for a cutscene to begin the Mission.
**This is easiest via the [[Arrapago Reef]] [[Survival Guide]]. Alternatively, from where you obtained the {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} Lamian Fang Key, head to (I-6) to zone into [[Arrapago Reef]].
***From there, move towards (J-10) with a {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]] to open the '''Iron Gate'''. Trade the key, and quickly cross through.
***'''Hug the left wall''' on this cavern map. You will exit through a door back to the first Map, and you'll you reach (H-10).
**The '''???''' target is the same for the [[Corsair]] Job quest. The correct cutscene mentions Pteraketos and Sealord Skin.
*After the cutscene, head to Map 3 of Arrapago Reef (F-7), and trade a {{ItemIcon|Hamsi|24}} [[Hamsi]] to the [[Apkallu Guide]] for another cutscene.
**The fastest way to get to this location is to warp out and use a [[Survival Guide]] to teleport to [[Caedarva Mire]], then immediately enter the cave into [[Arrapago Reef]].
**'''Note''': If you don't have the Caedarva Mire [[Survival Guide]], you will need another {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]] to reach it.

! style="background: #9d5757; color:white;" | Directions for if you are missing the Survival Guide
|-
| style="background: #f9eeee;" |
*If you lack the Caedarva Mire Survival Guide, either walk from the prior cutscene area, or return to town and warp to [[Ilrusi Atoll Staging Point]].
*Assuming that you're starting from the prior area:
**From the ship you are on now (Map 1), proceed to (F-10) to cross over to Map 2 (B).
***This is the same map as if you take the [[Ilrusi Atoll Staging Point]], and the paths converge at the next point.
**Proceed to (D-10) to cross over to Map 3 (C).
**Continue to (F-9) to use a {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]] on door "'''E'''".
**Through the gate, turn right and go through another gate.
**Wind your way around to (F-6) and zone to obtain the [[Survival Guide]] warp in Caedarva Mire. '''You will need it for the next Mission too.'''
**Return to the Reef to (F-7) to trade a {{ItemIcon|Hamsi|24}} [[Hamsi]] to the [[Apkallu Guide]] for a cutscene and resume the Mission.
|}

*After the cutscene with the [[Apkallu Guide]], head west and click the '''Camp Remnants''' (F-7) to begin a confrontation with:
**2 [[:Category:Lamiae|Merrow Kabukidancers]] (SAM)
***Merrows can [[Encumbrance|strip your gear]] with Torrent.
***Torrent is a {{magical}} {{water}} move which can be evaded with gear ''and'' water specific evasion.
**2 [[:Category:Qutrub|Qutrub]] (DRK)
**2 [[:Category:Sahagin|Mamool Ja Divers (Sahagin)]] (MNK)
*[[:Category:Trust|Trusts]] may be used. Call them BEFORE checking the '''Camp Remnants'''.
**It is not a difficult fight overall with a trust healer/support and Malignance/Empyrean +2/3 or Nyame R0.
*AoEs behave abnormally in this fight and only hit the primary target, meaning that AoE sleep/petrification will not work.
**Because of this, make sure that you're buffed and have [[DT]] equipment on before popping if you're using trusts.
**The foes can still be individually slept if you so choose, except for the Qutrubs.
*After the fight, click the '''Camp Remnants''' again for a cutscene.
**{{color|red|Note:}} '''FastCS will soft-lock your client to a black screen at the end of this cutscene.'''
***To resolve this, upon reaching the aforementioned black screen, hold '''Prt Scr''' (or '''Fn''' + '''Prt Scr''' if on laptop or a 60% keyboard) for ~2 seconds to unlock yourself from the soft-lock.
*Return to the '''???''' on the Corsair ship at (H-10) Map 1 of Arrapago Reef for the final cutscene and your reward.
** You can obtain another {{ItemIcon|Lamian Fang Key|22}} [[Lamian Fang Key]] from the '''???''' in [[Caedarva Mire]] map 1 at (I-7) if the game day has rolled over straight outside of Arrapago Reef.
