Finding Lumicite Shard in Lost Sanctum

[Phillies64]

I looked around and didn't see this, so I don't know if this has been posted yet. If so I apologize and feel free to delete.

Anyway I'm looking for the Lumicite Shard in the Lost Sanctum quest (The reward for this quest is the Element Aegis armor for Lucca).
I heard this can be found by using Ayla's charm Tech on a Wonde Rock. The only problem is I can't seem to find Wonder Rock anywhere within the Lost Sanctum. I heard he appears near the top of Emerald Mountain, but I just can't seem to find him.

I believe I may have fought him once without realizing and didn't charm. Does this mean he won't appear again? Is there a common spot where he appears?

I've seen him in the Millenia Wood, but IDR the time.

Both times I've seen him he got away, and the second time, no time passed when he "Escaped!" on me.

You can also get it by defeating it. Don't pull out the stops & use your best Magics and it should go down within a turn or two (it does indeed suck when it disappears its first turn)...There's also a spawn point of one in the forest in the back of Lost Sanctum (which is the only one I ever saw in the LS)...Another place to fight them is later on in one of the Dimensional Vortexes.

Ehh... DV is too random, just gonna stick with LS. Thanks for the tip, though.

I met him 2 times near the top of Emerald mountain. The best thing to do when you are lucky enough to find him is to use Dark matter, so you'll beat him in one strike. I tried and it was pretty effective.
Good luck because the reward you'll obtain for the Lumicite is great.

I have found the Wonder Rock twice in the woods and twice on the mountain so far.

The ones in the woods ran as soon at the battle started. In the mountain they lasted longer and attacked. And although I didn't got enough time to defeat either, I at least got the shard from the second one.

[Phillies64]

Where in the woods does he appear?

I've heard that on the mountains he appears on the second mountain just before the fight with the three beetles. Was this the same case for you?

Thanks.

[Lee]

Yes I confirm.
I suggest you forget the ones in the woods to search for those in the mountain. Because like Acacia Sgt said, it seems the woods ones don't let you enough time to make even a single strike.
The only thing I cannot remember is if they live on Prehistoric ages or on Middle Ages.

[Acacia Sgt]

In the Middle Ages, all Wonder Rocks I have fought were in the Middle Ages.

I went through a few of them in that Vortex, myself...It might've been partly because I was going up & down that slidey area so many times, but w/e...

They aren't different, it's just luck whether or not it runs immediately or sticks around. I don't think there are separate escape ratings for each one.

Where exactly in the Middle Ages woods does it appear? Thanks.

[Acacia Sgt]

After the first U-Turn, changing direction to South.

[V_Translanka]

It's right after the 2nd (1st forced) fight with the pink & blue imps. It should be walking around down there.

[Phillies64]

I finally found it on the mountain. I was able to Charm it from the Wonder Rock before I defeated him.
