| Pyric Bulwark is best
hunted in Abyssea - Grauberg
This spell can not be soloed at 95 in camp #1, you'll need a party that can deal with a mid level Abyssea NM. Are special items are needed? Yes the three pop items for the NM, (High-Quality Wivre Hide, Jaculus Wing, Minaruja Skull.)
Once you obtain the three pop items which can be farmed, bought on the AH or from Gold chests, you can pop Ningishzida at I-7 in Abyssea - Grauberg. Use porter #8 to get to camp. The fight is nothing special for a party that can handle the average Abyssea NM. A solid blink tank, and some DD and haling support and one is good to go. Treat the fight as if you were going for the kill, you will have more then enough time to see the move. With some luck you will learn it.
One has a one in three chance of fighting a Hydra on floors 60, 80, or 100 of a Nyzul Isle Investigation mission. This makes this a bad camp, but it works. You'll need a team that is able to climb the 5 floors of a tower mission to the boss floor and some luck to see the mob you want. On the bright side you might find a Cerebus or Khimaira, which you'll need spells from also perhaps. At level 95 you will have no issues with the mob. It will be harder to work the lamp floors :)
There are many other Hydra NM's all about the world. A party will be needful for most. Many of them have long pop times, or are much harder to get to.
