Maroliths aggro via Magic. Most of the TP moves they use can stack a number of debuffs, and can be annoying. |

This spell can be soloed by a Blue Mage who has at least level 109 gear. Be sure that you bring some Echo Drops to deal with Orogenic Storm, as the silence can be an issue. Having some healing Trust characters out can make things simpler. Sneak and Invisible are useful to get to camp.
There are Eight Maroliths in the zone, in four groups of two. On the map above I have noted two of the groups, easily reachable from the Conveyer. I feel this is the best camp for the spell due to the easy of getting to the mobs, and fast respawns. Warp in via the Conveyer, and make your way to one of the camps. There are aggro free areas near each to pull to where you can fight. When you make your pulls take care to not aggro both Marolith in the area. The fights are not hard, pound on the Marolith to give it TP and hope for the move. Watch your HP, as you will take some damage. Having WHM sub, or a healing trust about to take care of some of the debuffs you'll see from other moves is very useful. Be sure to have Echo Drops to get rid of the silence. After that it's a matter of waiting for the move.
There are Maroliths in several Meeble Burrow missions. They are often inactive until conditions are met. The spell can be learned from them here. But I found that they were unreliable to find active.
