Full Data on Gaurdian Tree for Samurai Sub job Flag Quest!

Fore-note: I created this because several sites don't have definate data on this NM for the Samurai Sub job Quest. Seeing the lack of details posted made me think it wasn't possible unless I had a high level with me, so I decided I'd post my battle data so people DON'T make the same mistake I did and wait until level 50+ before doing the quest. The following is live combat data, shamefully I couldn't record a video although I have screenshots of the battle chat unfiltered which I can send as confirmation if needed. I would like someone to update it however on the Monster Page, listing special effects approx. HP and that it was defeated WITH EASE by a level 55 Red Mage.

Character Stats:
Level 55 Red Mage
Sub Job 27 Ninja
Race: Mithra
Total HP: 867
Unenhanced Defense: 188
Unehanced Attack: 171
Enchantments used:
Phalanx
Protect III
Shell II
Haste
Stoneskin
Enfire
Utsusemi (Utilized only once at the very start of the battle, due to ease I did not recast)

NM Data:

Approx HP Total: Estimated at around 1800 HP
Special Abilities: Drill Branch (Physical Damage), Leafstorm (Physical Damage), Entangle (Unknown effect) None of these had additional effects when used on me, only 2 did damage (And not much).

Specific Notes: Seemed to have a very fast attack speed, like h2h hundred fists or double attack, although it's accuracy vs me was poor. I was struck a total of 15 times (That includes the times it struck for 0 damage), and received the following:

19 - Drill branch, 6, 10, 31, 12, 6 - Leafstorm, 22
Total: 106

I utilized the following enfeebling magic spells from the start of battle.
Dia II x2 - Cast 2 times
Paralyze
Slow
Poison II
Blind
Gravity x2 - Cast 2 times


This is a near exact copy of my damage log (tedious I know)

166 - Burning Blade
- Enfire Wore
37, 34, 37, 36
72 - Critical
15,37
58 - Critical
37,37
- Battle End

Total: 1671 Damage Dealt
- , seperated physical damage from enspell damage, enfire wore near the end of battle. All additional damage from spells that were listed (IE fire blizzard, not poison) has been notated to the side alongside any weapon skills.
This battle took me roughly 4 minutes (Began at 10:14pm, ended at 10:18pm)

Lastly, I heard from some other sources this NM knows pinecone bomb, it was not however utilized against me.

Sorry for such a gargantuan post, I hope someone takes just a moment to update this on the page though so people can get an estimate as to how tough this NM really isn't ^^.

Thanks for the info; when the quest is given a full walkthrough, that will certainly be used.
