Golden Fleece
Number Required: 4I recently found out that these - and their Phurble cousins are actually a type of Voidsent. Which would be fine, if you didn't make clothes from the Snurble Tufts that drop from them. The Golden Fleece is as described, except it has creepy eyes and is nothing like a nice fluffy sheep you normally think is associated with the word 'fleece'.There are also plenty of them if you wander around the Burning Wall, if someone else isn't there farming them for Snurble Tufts. I know it's a long way from Camp Drybone, but if you do see someone doing that - come back later.

Quartz Doblyn
Number Required: 4You will have no problems finding a Quartz Doblyn once you know roughly where to look!
So, Tell me Where To Look Already!
Okay then! Head to the Burning Wall in Eastern Thanalan. If you don't have flight in Eorzea yet, be prepared for a long ride.Involved in FATE
There are four FATEs involving the Quartz Doblyn, but only one takes place in Eastern Thanalan:See Northern Thanalan FATEs if you want other options too.Region/Area

Nix
Number Required: 4The Nix is yet another giant toad species that can be found pretty much as soon as you exit Revenant's Toll to the West. Look for the giant crystalline formation then just circle round it to clear this Hunting Log entry. Alternatively, if the FATE below is on, then you can do it that way, if you want to. As with all Gigantoad races, expect Sticky Tongue and their push-back AoE skills to knock you around a bit.

Mudpuppy
Number Required: 5Think of mud. Now think of a puppy. What you've got here is nothing like what you just imagined! These slimy critters share attacks from similar Eft-like enemies such as the Salamander. Just be aware that it does throw distance AoEs so do the brave thing and run away from them. Or strike from closer initially.
Mudpuppy Location
Head out the South-Western exit of Revenant's Toll and past the camp of the same name. Hug the hills on the right (literally if that's your thing) and you'll find mudpuppies. Some also roam close to the water at The Tangle.Related FATE

Daring Harrier
Number Required: 2The Daring Harrier and Raging Harrier can be found through the icy/crystalline tunnel off The Tangle.Although not in a Hunting Log, the Hexing Harriers cast the really interrupt spell, so it's worth targeting them first.
Region/Area
Mor Dhona: Fogfens (Rathfrost)Nearest Aetheryte
Mor Dhona: Revenants TollRaging Harrier
Number Required: 2Along with the Daring Harrier and their "Hexing" counterpart (who is not a Hunting Log target), you can find the Raging Harrier high up in Mor Dhona in an area called Rathefrost.Take out any nearby Hex-ers first because they tend to cast an interrupting debuff which gets annoying very quickly!There are only three Harriers though, so if another player has been through here very recently, you'll have to wait for them to respawn. Or, go take out other nearby targets and come back.

Gigas Shramana
Number Required: 2The Gigas Shramana are the axe-wielders of whatever type of giants these are. Along with their fellows, they roam the eastern region of Mor Dhona.I get confused with this, because they are not Shamans (e.g. healers). Those are the Gigas Sozu.
Where are the Shramana?
Outside of FATEs, I could only find four, which is more than you need.They are spread around, though, which is why I haven't put general coordinates in. Just head into Northern Silvertear and, well, hunt! This is a hunting log, yes?Involved in FATEs

Mor Dhona: Revenant's TollGigas Sozu
Number Required: 2Do you pronounce it gy-gas or gee-gas? Whatever you call the Gigas Sozu and their other tribe members, the one you want is the healer, sporting a two-handed cane. They mostly just throw the Stone skill at you, so they're not difficult to defeat. Just ignore their size and beautiful faces and you'll be fine.
Finding a Gigas Sozu
So I only managed to find two - (approximately) X:28, Y:13 and X:30, Y:15. In one sense that's good because Thaumaturges and Rogues only need two of these. But it's bad if you're waiting for respawn. If you find others, can you let me know so I can add more to the map? Thanks!Involved in FATEs
It may be that a FATE is the easiest way for you to clear this Hunting Log 5 entry!Region/Area

Hippogryph
Number Required: 4Unlike some hunting log entries where it's difficult to find enough targets, you'll not have that issue with the Hippogryph. Just head to the North-West "bend" of the Singing Shards and you'll find plenty. While there is one near the yellow, levin-infused lower level, all the rest of the Hippogryphs are on the upper level.

Hapalit
Number Required: 4Hapalits are of a similar breed to the Redhorn Ogres. Only these have huge, fiery horns, and fingers and toes. Or...are they hoofs?
Where to Find Them
Anyway, they're Voidsent, so hunt them down. They are marked as "" in your Hunting Log, but that's not massively helpful! You can find them in Northern Silvertear in Mor Dhona. They're slightly underground in that lightning-charged, orange and crystalline area. I've marked a circle where there are a few gathered, as well as dots for some precise Hapalit locations.Involved in FATE

2nd Cohort Eques

The 2nd Cohort Eques is a Lancer, regardless of what the Rogue Hunting Log icon tells you.
Where are They?
You only need 2, and you'll have no difficulty in finding more than the required number of mobs either. Head to Castrum Occidens in Eastern La Noscea, where you'll find at least nine.Region/Area

Eastern La Noscea: Wineport2nd Cohort Signifer
Number Required: 22nd Cohort Signifiers are ranged casters, so dear Rogue, you'll have to get up close and personal to defeat them. You'll find them - or more likely they'll find you - in Castrum Occidens in Eastern La Noscea. The Empire has posted Signifiers high up, a bit like archer sentries. And there are loads of them too! You only need two, however.Get your fizz-bangs on for Eorzea. Start at around X26.0, Y:21.0 and head East into the Castrum. Have fun wreaking havoc, rogue.

2nd Cohort Secutor
Number Required: 2While the Garlean Empire has its own trained Ninjas/contract Shinobi in Stormblood, the nearest you get here is the 2nd Cohort Secutor. The elegance of two blades and Ninja techniques versus the brutal ineligance of two clunky lumps of metal. You'd better win that one!
Where Are They?
Well, if you're clearing the Rogue Hunting Log Rank 5 in one sitting, then you should already be in the right place!You can find the Secutors at Castrum Occidens in Eastern La Noscea. There you'll find your targets along with the 2nd Cohort Eques, 2nd Cohort Signifer and 2nd Cohort Vanguard.Enjoy the slaughter, I guess?!A Random Thought
I just wondered if getting a Legionary Visor as loot from Garleans was akin to them being "scalped". If you wrench that dumb mask off them, do you claim their soul? Thoughts of a strange mind!Region/Area

Eastern La Noscea: Wineport2nd Cohort Vanguard
Number Required: 2If any of your Hunting Log targets so far have been hard to spot, you won't have that issue with the 2nd Cohort Vanguard! Your challenge will be being aware of other foes near you joining the battle. The ginormous magitek structures are more fragile than they look, but be careful of their forward-facing AoE attack.You'll find the Vanguards in Castrum Occidens, along with a bunch of other Garleans.

TL;DR With the Rogue Hunting Log Rank 5 done, You’re Done!
Well done my dear Ninja! That’s a shedton of enemies confronted and defeated. Rank 5 always feels like a mirror of the MSQ, the storyline growing in Mor Dhona before taking on the Garleans. In that sense, doing it alongside the MSQ is a good idea, if Rogue is your first class.
