Just want to put out here that I'm sure there's frustration in a majority of people regarding on how it's more time-consuming to pop NMs in Aby Tahrongi compared to Konschtat and La Theine in order to gain key items to pop stronger monsters.
For example, in Konschtat and La thiene, you only have to pop 1 notorious monster to gain a key item and not another pop item that goes towards popping another NM that gives a key item, where in Aby Tahrongi's example is more time-consuming because of how you have to farm 1 pop item and defeat a NM then you received another pop item to pop another NM along with more pop items to gain a key item.
The problem with NM pops when comparing between tahrongi and the other 2 visions zones is that Tahrongi itself takes more time in general farming up NM pops
A good example is that you have to farm and kill both Clionid and Limule NMs to gain their pop items, along with the bloodshot hecteyes pop item, in order to pop hecteyes NM to gain a key item. farming a shocking whisker to Pop and kill the coeurl NM to get another pop item to use it along with Resilient Mane to pop Manticore NM for it's key item.
I'm only suggesting to ease the popping condition towards the NMs that drop the Key Items themselves that are used to pop both Glavoid and Chloris.
EDIT:
I didn't think about providing the current pop patterns towards the NMs at the time of post, but wanted to make 1 more sample. Yes I know doing amber gold chest is the best way, but it's still luck depending on which key item you really needed while working your way through. I wanted to point this out to see if it was possible to ease on Tahrongi's NM pop conditions in general for groups who are doing both killing NMs and farming chests at the same time.
Tahrongi:
pop item >Limule NM > pop item A >----------v
pop item > Clionid NM > pop item B > Hecteyes NM > Key item
Normal hecteyes monster > pop item C >---^
Konschtat:
Pop Item > Morbol NM > Key Item
Pop Item > Ahriman NM > Key Item
and La thiene's NM pop item conditions is the same as konschtat but tahrongi makes it the longest path towards getting the KIs, that is if you're mostly farming up the pop items for the first tier NMs to get the next set of pop items to pop the next tier for the key items. And let's not forget to take into account of the chance of getting obtaining the key items, would be quite the waste of some gil at times if you're lowmanning or duoing NMs.
