Notes
- Dreadbug can be spawned by a person with the quest A Boy's Dream active once per Vana'diel day.
- If you spawn it on one game day, but finish killing it on the next game day, you can still respawn it. You'll just have to wait a little bit.
- If multiple people have the quest, it can be spawned multiple times on the same game day with a short wait period in between. You receive the message "Nothing seems to happen" when you must wait, but can still spawn it during the current game day.
- You receive the message "It seems that nothing will happen yet" when you must wait until the next game day to spawn.
- Head to in-game map 3 (labeled map 2 by many fan sites). This is the map the contains an alternate exit to Rolanberry Fields. Dreadbug spawns in a small southern niche at (H-9). Once you make it to the niche, face west and you'll see a ??? that spawns the Dreadbug when selected.
- Has approximately 5000 HP.
- Uses Poison Breath for high damage (dealt 400 damage to a level 99 WHM at high HP).
- Drops 1-4 Giant Shell Bugs.
- Uses Cocoon often, which can be Dispelled.
- Susceptible to Bind, Sleep, and Gravity.
- Used in Quest: A Boy's Dream
