Zu migrate seasonally and have become more prevalent in Eorzea since the Calamity. With unease at more frequent sightings came an upsurge in swindlers eager to profit off fear, some Ul'dahn merchants going as far to tout "single-strike zu-slaying swords" amongst their other dubious offerings.

Spawns

• Anzu Crone from Anzu Trois in the Sea of Clouds is a good alternative spawn compared to the Pharos Sirius boss recommended by the game. Clearing nearby fates in the southeast area of the map will respawn the FATE faster, and scaling up the FATE difficulty will provide more enemies and chances at capture, although the intrinsic drop rate is still low.
• Another alternative is the Alpha Zu, a possible enemy from an Unhidden Leather Map. The catch rate is very high, but a downside is the gil expense from potentially needing multiple maps (if players are not gathering maps themselves).

Mob	Level	Part Of	Location
Alpha Zu	50	Unhidden Leather Map	Potential to spawn as a mob when opening a treasure chest
Anzu Crone	47	Anzu Trois	The Sea of Clouds (X:29, Y:35)
Cornu	50	A-Rank Hunt Marks	Outer La Noscea
Zu	50	Pharos Sirius	Dungeon
