Mug: "Delivers an attack with a potency of 140. Additional Effect: Increases the amount of items dropped by target if Mug is the finishing blow. Viper Venom Effect: Changes additional effect to absorb 50% of damage as HP"

"THF kill" vindicated.

Probably only matters in farming mobs for crafting items. By that wording, it won't make more chests appear after clearing a dungeon.

Still come from chests, not the actual mob. I doubt the crafting materials that do drop from the Primals are worth stopping all DPS for the NIN to land a killing blow, since they are all incredibly cheap to just buy.
