    Ixion has the weather, and is only in one zone, and has only a few possible spawn locations.

    Foxy lady is the one that's lacking the weather and is thus this level of difficulty.

    Though the weather that makes some of them easy, does seem to have stopped. I can't remember there being special weather for either of the shadowbringers ones, and endwalker seems to be another set of nopes. So it looks like it's going to be just "get lucky" from here on out.

    Thanks for the additional information.
    I still want to pull my eyes out of my face when i remember that i dropped some items from the robot (ShB) because i thought that i would never get lucky again...just to kill him once again a few days later haha

    Behemoth, Odin, Couerlregina, Proto Ultima, and Ixion.
    Behemoth is the only one that doesn't have a weather telegraph, but you can also get behemoth horns from Eureka Pagos. It's also the only way to get Behemoth Pelt.

    The SB/ShB/EW rare FATEs are a lot easier than you'd think to spawn.
    Because you need to spawn them manually.
    Foxy Lady? 2 NPC FATEs which then spawn another FATE that will then spawn Foxy Lady in 5-30 minutes.

    A Finale Most Formidable? 2 different chain FATEs.
    The Tail, The Head, The Whole Damn Thing? A 5-FATE chain that usually resets at the 4th one.
    Devout Pilgrims vs Daivadipa? A 2-FATE chain.
    Omicron Recall: Killing Order? Again, a 2-FATE chain.
    Plus the ShB/EW ones spawn in a single location and their boss is visible far away in the overworld.

    If you're having issues finding these, consider joining a discord or CWLS that's interested in this kind of thing.
    Centurio Hunts and Faloop both have discord bots in their servers that ping whenever someone calls out a rare FATE (and faloop users may also ping for previous expansions' FATEs that just give an achievement, like the one in Yanxia that gives you a DRK glam weapon) - Faloop even has its own website that tracks when rare FATEs spawned last and how long it'll be till it might spawn/can be spawned again.
    It's only "luck" if you don't know what you're doing.

    Just want to add that despite having 3 possible spawn locations, there's a place near Namai that will spawn the Namai Elder NPC if Foxy Lady has also spawned so you don't have to keep re-checking all 3 spawn locations. The Elder will share more of the lore about Tamamo-Gozen.

    It's a very big but somewhat generic looking DRK Weapon called Kidomaru. It's a reward for earning Gold on Curiosity Killed the Catfish.

    In fact, all of the big raid FATE bosses are visible across the entire map, same as S rank hunts.

    Hmm.. maybe not entire all. I can't vouch for Odin, but that could be as much about all the trees being in the way, and generally being near-player sized and hard to pick out..

    Coeurlregina, tho, pretty easy to spot if you fly up high, with such a tall map.

    Yep, only issue about Coeurlregina is that the first of the 3 FATEs starts with killing trash, so it's a lot less visible

    The first FATE is always right outside Tailfeather so it's easy enough to find if you notice the weather change. Second one is either outside Tailfeather or about halfway between Tailfeather and Loth ast Vath.

    If the sky is green for Royal Levin, it is either the first or second FATE. The sky will be red during Royal Levin for the achievement FATE.

    I thought one of the first two is green and the other is purple? Just from memory though, and maybe I'm getting confused with something else since I don't see it very often.
