Final Fantasy 4: The After Years: The Crystals Tale. Soma Drops and Golden Apples (Grind attempt 3)

So now i got Treasure Hunter V2 band in stock, that i grinded from Subterrane b7, best way to teleport there is go to B6. The middle room has the Behemoth enemy that shows up alone at "New Moon" phase. I recommend having Rare Band V2 or something like that if you wanna grind for Treasure Hunter V2 band. It will drop Purple Tail.

But basically conclusion is you either need one or two "Treasure Hunter V2" band and three "Rare Bands V2.". Rare Bands V2 seems to attract Fiend Dragon more so it overall seems like a good reason to equip them. But i got more chances of Golden Apple it seems by having some Rare Bands V2 equipped. I got Golden Apple at 1:56:00, i tried in the beginning with only "Treasure Hunter V2". No dice after 1 hour. But the method here is

This took me perhaps 30 min i think

"
Treasure Hunter V2
Treasure Hunter V2
Rare Band V2
Rare Band V2
Rare Band V2
" For Golden Apple.. or you can try the old method, which took me 50 min i think

Treasure Hunter V2
Rare Band V2
Rare Band V2
Rare Band V2
Rare Band V2
"

For Soma Drops... is a little weird on that one. But it seems somewhat random. But Treasure Hunter V2 does the trick on that one. Even with all equipped i got it pretty much here and there. Got it two times i think when i had it all equipped. But it also shows up even with Rare Band V2 equipped with Treasure Hunter V2 band.

So it overall depends what is in your first priority. For me its Golden Apple here since its a tad bit harder to get than Soma Drops.

I got it not too long here at 20:55

Edit:

Oh and if you wonder where you get "Rare Band V2" at? You get it from grinding Green tail, which is the enemy "Green Dragon" which is at "Lair of the father - B1". You can get there by teleporting to "Tower of Babil - B3", then go outside the room to the teleportation you see in the room, and you will find a lone Green Dragon in the moon cycle of "Waning Moon". Hope this helps!

Also i dont normally use Auto Battle. I just did it here to do it a little quickly to show people. I prefer being in control. So Auto Battle, not a fan : D
