Events seem to be slowing down lately, so now that more people in the linkshell have sea, I thought I would bring back this event to start to gear our members with more organs!
I'm looking for about 6 people for this run, but if you don't make it this time, fear not! We'll be doing this bi-weekly, or monthly at the least, for a little while.
The goal is to take on Om'Yovra as the drop rate is higher, and there are many more of them to kill. Worst case scenario we can default to the lower level Ul'Yovra near the Sealions Den entrance.

Why do this?
The only real reason to mess with these guys are to gain thier Organs, which are needed to complete the fantastic elemental gorget items offered by the
"In the Name of Science" Quest. These items are very powerful and add more raw power and accuracy to your WS than any Chiv Chain, PCC, Jailer Torque or other neck piece available in the game to date.
An example of a Gorget:
Here are some testimonials on battling these giants:

Killable by very good party of 75s.
Can be killed by 4 people (NIN or PLD/NIN tank, BRD, 2 damage dealers who do not give the Yovra too much TP such as BLM, RDM or SMN).
Duo by skilled MNK/NIN and RDM/WHM (25~30 minute fight)
Trio by skilled MNK/NIN, BLM/WHM, and a RDM/WHM.
Can be killed in under 10 minutes with BLMx4, BRD and RDM. Start with sleeping/lullaby and once they start resisting, repeat Gravity and Bind. One BLM with hate should always kite it around the other 3, who should nuke as much as possible to counter HP regen.
A very reliable way to farm yorva organs is to camp at the Temenos zone via Teleport-Holla, optimal party set up would be 4x BLM, 1x BRD, and 1x NIN/DRK or RDM/NIN to tank, when a BLM rips hate, simply zone into Temenos, and zone back out.
Have done this with as few as 4: NIN/DRK RDM/WHM BLM/RDM x2.
