Wanted to get that brd body for my sis, so I head down to Sea Grotto to poke Novv the Whitehearted. It pops while fighting another mob, I switch target and start stabbing Novv in the face with ma dagger. Coastal Sahagin decides to join pt and now I have 2 mobs plus NM. About 10mins into fight I notice this dudes regen is IT. No ones around so I sleep both mobs and gravity Novv, toss on sneak and run to norg.

15 mob train later, I lose a few mobs, but some Rdm claims Novv. I run my sisters whm ( dual playing) to my pos, rdm can't handle the fight and warps. My sis has no att gear and a lvl 41 club :\. Long story short, I kept casting Dots and smashing his face with Hexa strike + Evisceration for 2hrs. Hydro shot ( u suck) is what kept the fight going to long. Had to rest candi 2 times for mp. Regen was much faster than expected ><.

 
lol, So did you get the drop?
 
Just to let you know, bring a blm next time and it won't be a problem =)... Novv's regen has nothing on Thunder IV LMAO.

Peace,
Shmed
 
Or a drk, lol. Mirewen and I killed this guy in about 2 mins tops with me on drk and her on rdm. Got the drop too, woohoo.

Last time I checked, ffxiclopedia still had an exclamation point marking them being unsure on Novv still dropping siren's hair -- but I haven't seen or heard of any cases in which someone has gotten a siren's hair off Novv since update. Anyone see/hear anything different?
 
going by how many people don't camp it, probably not or very very low drop rate.

SE doing a good job of making certain NMs not even worth the time to camp or kill.
