baby opo opo drop rate and questions

I know the run the Baby Opo Opo drops in but is there an extremely low drop rate or is there a (special) kill you gotta do? I have ran it 6 times last night alone and dozens before and never seen it drop, is there a special monster place holder that hast to be defeated, most parties do a lock out before first boss (speed run), is there something I'm missing?

in all of the weeks/months since that dungeon has been available, i have never seen the drop. never.

I think it's only dropped from killing last boss. It goes straight into your inventory as well apparently (you don't roll on it).

That was changed. You actually roll for it now as far as I know. Not that I've even seen it happen yet myself >.>

Dropped twice on me

Sold twice, Gils twice

Baby Monkey sell business : 3

Ah OK fair enough :-)

I run it 20 times a week with an alt. Never seen it drop

we do nothing but full runs (seen you are unable to receive tombstone of soldiery, you have reached your weekly limit all 6 runs last night) we kill the last boss (unless everyone quits due to wipe), the ones whos seen it drop, was it speed runs (all 3 bosses) or did y'all clear all the mobs (non-boss included)?

Never seen it drop in over 300+ runs :P

took me about 80+ runs to drop on me.

got a message "you obtain a baby opo-opo" after the last boss. was a speedrun with lock-out

There is no trick on how it drops, it is absolutely random, and it no longer drops straight to your inventory, it will be in the chest that pops after you kill the last boss to roll on, or not. Most likely not.

so the drop rate is worse than atma, my Wife has 3 atma, I'm still at 0 lmao, well I guess we'll have to just spam it and hope we get some.

I hate you

I saw it drop once in maybe 250 or so runs.

I've seen the same retainer selling three opopos at once...

Got mine on random run. Used it. No regrets. Monkey. :3

This was before you could roll on it.

Everyone can lot on it now if it drops

You sure it is not the Alchemist guild just perfected "Monkey cloning".

I only saw it drop ONCE on all the Brayflox's Longstop (Hard) runs. Rarer than ATMA for sure..

I want one ( T ^ T

Also there's a rumour running around about needing to kill that special white couerl to trigger the drop D:

But well I guess that's not true?

I've seen it drop 3 times. Won the 3rd.

Played the MB also. Bought one cheap-ish and sold it for a 250k profit.

Only seen it once and someone else received it. :(

I had two drop within a 10 day period. Both were the normal speedrun type runs with lockouts and avoiding the white coeurl. This was before 2.28.
Kept the first. Sold the other >:D

I wouldn't say rarer than atma. It just takes longer to do a full run than it does to do a fate so there are less of them. It's probably on par with atma and alexandrite drop rates.

It is now a need/greed roll. Drops from the last boss only. I got mine the very first Brayflox run I did right after patch 2.28 went live, and won the roll.

I don't know about you, but at least I get an atma within hundreds of tries.

But that is subjective, just like atma. Everyone has a different experience.

I probably haven't cleared Bray HM 100 times since it's been out, and I've seen 3. *shrug*

So maybe it is exactly like atma, who knows.

Only way to know for sure, is if you run Brayflox HM 3 hours after your Eorzean conception date, wearing Cotton Dress gloves with 2 Earth Materia grade 3's slotted. If you get seen by either coeurl after the 1st boss you have to pray to Gob at the middle holding cage while wearing a coronal hat.

Weather has to be Dust Storms.

Only ever seen it drop from final chest and nothing special done, coeurl was still alive as were the colibris killed (another urban legend that killing them means it won't drop)

Nah, the urban legend will just be modified. Killing the White Coeurl improves the opo drop rate by 3%! Believe it.

Now that its roll-able for the whole group the question now is, Will the people that already have learned it be unable to roll Need? :3

I would guess yes. You can roll need on other minions you have already obtained from dungeons.

It's dropped 3 times for my parties.

Tank got it twice. Then a stranger we picked up got it as well.
