* Crawler
* Aggro to Sound

Commentarus:
Be careful when crossing the "doughnut" in the lower levels of the Crawlers Nest as pretty much everything there aggros to either sight or sound. Rumble Crawlers have a long repop time, so this place only really supports one party.

Your RDM may not necessarily be 48 for Haste, so have your White Mage handle Silk Thread via either Erase or Haste.

the northern room is that you kill all the crawlers, invis past the wespes, and then kill off the dragonflies, repeat. mages need to watch out for elemental pops in the dragonfly room. most of the time the wespes are being killed due to the fact they are PH for a NM. Don't attempt to kill a wespe unless you get aggroed by one - their final sting move will ignore all forms of defense, never miss, and damage is based on the mob's remaining HP. They often kill chains. dragonflies are a little stronger than the rumble crawlers.

acid bolts will dispel Cocoon, and they usually proc on crawlers.

Its possible to chain rumble crawlers with just 4 people, such as 4x BST with eft or lizard jug pets, or 3x BST and a RDM. Hate will bounce around but most of the time they will stay on the pets.

on the south map, blazer beetles and scorpions are used to maintain the chain, but ninja tank is needed for the scorpions due to their 2 potential one-shot moves. they have two other moves that can wipe shadows and a paralyze breath attack (based on its HP).
