Just finished my Glavoid entirely via box farming, loved it far more than dealing with procs. (Got like 30 Chloris Buds, too. Was very lucky with more Glavoid KIs than Chloris from the boxes.)

Build amber either on Bhumi (ideal, especially if you get lucky and get a 128) or on the Nauls at Conflux 3 (the same ones used for Zeni, avoid Cuelebre unless you have a plan for it) until max (255).

(edit: Bhumi notes: there are 5 in the zone, respawn time is 15-20, I have no idea what triggers them to respawn. The one with ID 170 I saw all of once, but 171-174 were showing up like clockwork. I thought it was killing some specific trash mob, so maybe it's one that doesn't drop anything anyone needs for Empy?)

I didn't build blue on purpose - just opened reds to get to the top time-extension-containing from reds once the campaign ended, but you could if you wanted I guess.

Caoineag at Conflux 4, while they do stop to cast, are all in a small area and sound/blood aggro so you can just run by them to pull them. They were my preferred cleave target, though sometimes people who aren't cleaving want to kill some to pop that NM so I didn't always take them all. Failing that, the nearby Canyon Scorpions sound aggro, just wider spread territory.

Once you have all four KIs, pop over to Glavoid, maybe pull some worms on the way back and cleave those too. Sound aggro is so much better than sight aggro for big pulls. Chloris's nearby Pachypodium friends don't aggro, or they'd be fine too.
The scorpions are champions because they track scent. You don't have to slow down to pull them all.

I hope you were multiboxing this if you were cleaving for pops.

you give me a lot of credit!

Shoutouts to Asura, the server where I will never, ever try for timed NM spawns if I can avoid it by literally any method. I bought probably 75% of my Sisyphus Fragments off the AH and I'm going to either cleave chests outside campaign or throw gil at Ansherekh the same way for Amarok.

If they weren't so spread out I'd be way more in favor of them. Caoineags you just have to dodge some plants rather than deal with hills and all that.
