====Route Overview====
* The [[Diremite]]s in the first room are the easiest chip mobs; they run 42-45 and drop the [[Gray Chip]]. The Maze Lizards don't seem to drop chips here.
From the ground floor, take the eastern route by dropping down at {{Position|Pso'Xja|map=Map 1|I-8}} (Drop "G"). From there you can take multiple routes, depending on where you drop down further. Each route passes spawns of 2 [[Snow Lizard]]s, 4 [[Diremite Assaulter]]s, 2 [[Frost Lizard]]s and 2 [[Diremite Dominator]]s.
* The G/H/L area in Basement 1 has 2 [[Snow Lizard]]s and 4 [[Diremite Assaulter]]s, all level 66-68. Note: It is possible to use ranged attacks to pull the Frost Lizards from below up onto the level where the 2 Snow Lizards live, and avoid dropping down while farming Lizzards.
* The L/M/N area in Basement 2 has 2 [[Frost Lizard]]s and 2 [[Diremite Dominator]]s, all level 74-76.
*G -> L -> M for 2 more [[Diremite Dominator]]s
* The H/S/O area in Basement 2 also has 2 [[Frost Lizard]]s and 2 [[Diremite Dominator]]s.
*G -> L -> N for 2 more [[Frost Lizard]]s
*G -> H -> O for 2 more [[Frost Lizard]]s
* The M/V area in Basement 3 has 2 [[Diremite Dominator]]s and a staircase to the ground level.
*G -> H -> S for 2 [[Archaic Chest]]s
* The N/O/P/Q area in Basement 3 has 2 [[Frost Lizard]]s and the elevator to the ground level.
====Route Details====
* The S/T area in Basement 3 has 2 [[Archaic Chest]]s, which do drop the [[Cyan Chip]] if you're masochistic enough to fight them. Be careful, even if they are hard to kill, the drop rate isn't 100%.
*'''{{Location Tooltip|area=Pso'Xja|map=Map 1|text=Ground Floor}}:''' The [[Diremite]]s found around {{Position|Pso'Xja|map=Map 1|H-8}} are the easiest chip mobs. They are level 42-45 and drop the [[Gray Chip]] with a 10% droprate.

Farming Locations

===Beaucedine Glacier (F-7

  1. 5555FF; opacity:0.5;">) entrance ("Nue Tower")===

The area consists of four floors. The entrance is at the top floor and players successively drop to the lower floors in various routes until reaching the bottom floor, where a staircase or an elevator leads back to the top floor.

Route Overview

From the ground floor, take the eastern route by dropping down at (I-8

  1. 5555FF; opacity:0.5;">) (Drop "G"). From there you can take multiple routes, depending on where you drop down further. Each route passes spawns of 2 Snow Lizards, 4 Diremite Assaulters, 2 Frost Lizards and 2 Diremite Dominators.

Route Details

  • Ground Floor: The Diremites found around (H-8
  1. 5555FF; opacity:0.5;">) are the easiest chip mobs. They are level 42-45 and drop the Gray Chip with a 10% droprate.

===Beaucedine Glacier (G-9

  1. 5555FF; opacity:0.5;">) entrance ("Ranguemont Tower")===

The Cyan Chip is usually farmed here, and often the Gray Chip as well.

This map is a bit of a puzzle; the Stone Doors marked on the map require the matching Blue Bracelet or Green Bracelet (key item) to pass through.

  • When you touch the colored ???s in I-8 on the upper floor (Blue) and H-7 in the basement (Green), the door closes behind you and two Dolls spawn and attack.
    • The Blue ??? spawns Gargoyle-Kappa and Gargoyle-Iota; the Green ??? spawns Gargoyle-Lambda and Gargoyle-Mu.
    • The Dolls alternate between physical immunity and very high magical resistance, each doll changing weaknesses simultaneously. This is marked by a blue- or yellow-colored sheen on each mob, so be prepared to switch targets frequently.
    • When both dolls are defeated, click on the ??? again to obtain the Bracelet.
  • There are 6 Treasure Chest mimics in these locations:
    • Ground Level: In the F room and next to the chest spawn in NW G-8
    • Upper Level: Next to the chest spawn in SE H-9
    • Basement: In the E room and the room in NW G-8.
    • And in the lower basement at the bottom of the elevator (no map).
    • WHM spell barthundera seemed to cause these chests' death trap move to have only the poison or no effect when cast by a 75 WHM. The stun effect seemed to be no longer present. Data pool was about 10-12 chests fought.

Pso'Xja I-7 entrance

The Carmine Chip can be farmed here as well.

This tower also has 4 Snow Lizards if the F-7 tower is overcamped.
