ZM5 NM Information (ZM5 Participants Plz See)

#1 Post by Kirakun »

Please prepare items by weekend. Not having Silent Potions and Prism Powder may jeapordize the entire crew that is participating (especially in Ifrit Cauldron walk).

Thunder Headstone
Behemoth's Dominion (G-9)
Mob: 2 Weapon NMs
Other Info:
1. It is possible to pull 1 at a time if the person touching the stone has sneak.


Wind Headstone
Cape Terrigan (F-7)
Required Items: 1D Sneak Oils and 1D Prism Powder
Mob: Darkstalker NM
Other Info:
1. Go to F-7 to a cave, then head to H-5 from there. This doesn't show on the map so just hug right all the way from F-7.
2. Trade Rain Lily Flower to the headstone to get a Flagellant's Rope.


Light Headstone
Sanctuary of Zi'Tah (I-7)
Mob: Fetid Flesh Type(Frog)
Other Info:
1. Go to J-9, then I-7.
2. This is by far the hardest ZM5 NM fight. A flesh type NM will pop and it hits a LV68 PLD for 250, and doubles for 500. So make sure to have everyone heal the tank.


Fire Headstone
Ifrit's Cauldron/Yuhtunga Jungle (L-6)
Required Items: 2D Sneak Oils and 2D Prism Powder (All Mage Must Buy As Well), 1 Ice Cluster(This if for you own safety)
Mob: 2 Monkey
Other Info:
1. Quick Directions [G6(Yhaot)>H8>D12>J8>E7>G7>C7]
Enter Ifrit's Cauldron from G-6 in Yhoator Jungle. Sneak/Invisible everyone and head to H-8. After the map change, head to D-12. Then head to J-8. There'll be a Flame Spout before being able to go to J-8, either wait or use an ice cluster. After J-8, go to E-7, then G-7. From here to the exit at Yuhtunga Jungle(C-7), there'll be 2 Flame Spouts, and there may be an NM named Ash Dragon at around G-9. After entering Yuhtunga Jungle, go to K-7, the headstone will be at L-6.
2. If you trade a Garnet to the headstone you can get a Monkey Necklace.

before this event, it's not a bad idea to collect the non-fight headstones. they're very easy and after this wknd, you'll all be ready for zm6 :)

Ice - Fei'Yin
Go to G-9 to head downstairs, then head to I-5 to enter the Cloister of Ice, the headstone is right behind the crystal.

Wind - La Theine Plateau
Enter Ordelle's Cave from F-7. Make a left and go to I-6. Then head to H-9. After climbing all the way up, go to H-12 and drop down the hole. Then go to I-11. After the map change, exit at G-10 to La Theine Plateu. The headstone is at G-11.

Earth - Quicksand Caves
Enter Quicksand Caves from West Altepa J-9. Once inside, go to K-6 and drop down the hole and exit to West Altepa. Go to H-8 in West Altepa to find the headstone.

fei'yin and la theine are easy to get to. if anyone needs help getting to the one in altepa let me know and i'll take you :)

I did ICE Sunday and it was pretty easy. The mobs in the lower level were EP to me (lv 64) and will aggro. So if you are 64 and under you will want sneak. I think the golums there aggro to sight, but they were easy to avoid. The other mobs were impossible to avoid so sneak was necessary.

Ice Headstone is uber-easy if you have a Summoner at level 20 and have decent San d'Oria fame.

Simple accept Mini Trial by Ice quest and he'll port you to the Ice Protocrystal, get the headstone, then go get killed by Shiva and Home Point back to where you came.

You do not lose any experience points for lost Mini Fork battles.
