More Rare/EX excitement for Rarehero.
After farming Korroloka Tunnel I decided to head by Falcatus Aranei's spawn room and cleared out the placeholders and sure enough he popped when they started to reappear. I was actually in the middle of fighting another spider when he popped so I changed target and had to combat 2 spiders (which made it more awkward).
Having 2 mobs hacking at my shadows meant things were't super easy. I even got hit with Sickle Slash for 220 although I was over 50% HP at all times. Also, I had switched my Emporer Hairpin off and equipped NIN AF (don't know why) just minutes earlier and I fought him using Great Katana so the fight was more drawn out than was needed.
Incredibly considering this was the first time I'd fought him, he dropped his Rare/EX item, the Webcutter, first time so it is another for my collection. Not something I was particularly after but will come in handy should I decide to level BST.

It seems that my luck in obtaining Rare/EX equipment is improving and last night I also grabbed another Tonberry Rattle used for the infamous 'Katana Run'. If a few peeps would be willing to tag along and try again for that in the near future I would be most appreciative (Apathye, Bayan, Tobal and Wedge, I'm looking at you ^_^)
