Special Notes on Monster and it's TP Moves

None of the Mandragora moves are a problem at the level you will be hunting the spell.

 

Obtaining the Spell
Minimum Blue Mage Level Needed To Acquire Spell: Level 1
Wild Oats is best hunted in East or West Sarutabaruta.

This spell can be soloed starting at level 1. No party is needed for the Sarutabaruta camps.

No special items needed.

Mandragora Hunting Grounds Camp #1
Name Level Location
Tiny Mandragora 1 East Sarutabaruta
Tiny Mandragora 1 West Sarutabaruta
Mandragora 3-5 West Sarutabaruta
Mandragora 3-6 East Sarutabaruta
Pygmaioi 7-11 Tahrongi Canyon

Just head out from Windurst and kill Mandragora. Nothing special.

If you choose to get the spell in Tahrongi, you should be at least level 8 or higher. In the early areas of the zones where these Mandragora are found, no other mobs will aggro. But if you are very low level, there can be other aggro farther into the zone. Take care.

There are many other Mandragora class monsters all over the world. They are all higher in level, and many will require a party, or skilled help to kill. With so many easy low level options, they are not recommended.

 

Special notes about the spell a Blue Mage may like to know
Can I solo it? Yes. A very easy spell to solo starting at level 1.
Do I need any special items? No, but a low damage weapon to feed the Monster TP helps.
Do Mandragora like to use the move? They have many other moves they seem to like better, and it can take some time to see.
The Spell deals Piercing damage, and has a nice range. The VIT down is about -14 and decays over time.
Wild Oats can be paired with any of the following spells to create the Beast Killer Trait: Sprout Smack, 1000 Needles or Seedspray.
