I camp this NM all the time on our server and was bored one day so i posted this guide on my LS site. they suggested i post it here so here it is!
Ashmaker Glotblut-lvl 17-18 Orc
Orc, Yughott Grotto-job(black mage)
lvl 25-34 has moderate to little challenge killing Ashmaker.
35+ can kill easily
As with most NMs, it is recomended that either your main or your sub be THF for treasure hunter 1 or 2. you should also have a main or sub that has a fast way of claiming. example given: provoke, jump, stun, flash
Ashmaker Glotblut spawns in roughly one to two hours.
He is a lottery pop so you MUST kill all the orcs for him to spawn.
Ashmaker has 3 drop items
Common Drop:
Hermit's Wand
+MND +INT
spell interuption rate down 25%
lvl 13
whm/blm/rdm/smn
This item will drop 97% of the time. It sells for around 7000 gil in Jeuno and around 5000 gil in most other cities. While camping Ashmaker Glotblut, you will obtain a large ammount of these.
Moderate Drop:
Fire Crystal.
I have never had this item drop for me but I have heard that some people have had it drop. Its more or less worthless.
Rare Drop:
Priest's Robe-DEF 14
+1 MND; +2 Darkness Element
lvl 19
whm/blm/rdm/smn/thf/mnk/rng/drk
This drop item is extreamly hard to get. I have had it drop twice in the long time that I have camped Ashmaker. Don't plan on getting this drop but celebrate if you are lucky enough to get it.
this drop is worth 50k-70k in every AH.
spawn info
Like I said, it spawns in roughly 1-2 hours. You HAVE to kill all the orcs in the room as they spawn to make sure Ashmaker Glotblut spawns. There is a triangle of stones in area H-9 of the room on the south wall. He will always spawn on the south wall and 90% of the time near that triangle of stones. The other 10% of the time, it will spawn on the far side of the south wall away from the triangle of stones (G-9). In all the times i've camped it, there have NEVER been more than 5 people camping it at any given time, but I can only speak for the Bismark Server when I say this. Since mining points spawn in this room, and people come here for Kazham keys, you have to be watching for people that run through the room. People who come to Yughott, whether to mine, level, or hunt chest keys, if they see Ashmaker Glotblut spawn, they will try to claim it. This notorious monster is good for beginners of any level. As long as you can kill it solo or with a partner, you will have a good time camping this NM. every time you camp you will come away with money, equipment, and if you claim it, a drop item worth some decent money.
