In Final Fantasy XIV, the Lead Coblyn is a mob that appears only in one specific location and, as a result, can be very difficult to find. Featuring on the Arcanist, Conjurer, and Gladiator Hunting Log, it’s natural that players will want to find the Lead Coblyn and get the bonus XP the creature drops.
Lead Coblyns spawn in Western Thanalan. They’re located in a cave at grid coordinates X: 13.7, Y: 10.6. They spawn underground next to the door to the next open area. This is the tunnel area between Vesper Bay, where the Waking Sands are located, and Cape Westwind.
There are around five or six Coblyns in the area. They respawn pretty quickly when killed, so don’t worry about missing them if there are a lot of people around.
In addition to XP, Lead Coblyns surprisingly drop Iron Ore as an uncommon drop sometimes. This is a quick way to get iron if you’re not currently levelled in a gathering class, and you can usually sell the iron either to an NPC vendor or on the market board for a few gil.

Arcanists and Gladiators need to kill four Lead Coblyns for their level 22 Hunting Log, in the Rank 3 section. Conjurers need to kill two Lead Coblyns, as well as two Laughing Toads and three Diseased Treants for their level 22 Hunting Log. Completing any of these Hunting Logs yields 6,500XP.
