Is Mano right for your level?
The main thing that changes with your level is whether you can hit it. Each level the monster has over you scales your accuracy down. Accuracy you need for a 100% hit rate (your total ACC from the stat window, gear and skills included):
| Your level | 12 | 16 | 20 | 24 | 28 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ACC needed | 57 | 51 | 44 | 44 | 44 |
Calculated with the Classic accuracy formula (see accuracy and hit rate), which reproduces published in-game examples exactly. It hits for 252 weapon attack, so check your HP and defense too; it attacks on sight.

Respawn
The game files list a respawn timer of 1 h on Thicket Around the Beach III. Nexon made field boss respawn times more randomized at Grand Launch, so treat this as a range, not an alarm clock.
Drops
Drop tables and rates are calculated on Nexon's servers and are not in the game files. We'll list what our team sees drop, with the number of kills, as we log it.
