DS Juniors are considered to be a newbie’s nightmare. They randomly spawn inside the campuses in the newbie areas (Sports Field), where they usually pawn first-time players on their first adventure within the campus areas. Some newbies even talk to this mob thinking that it is just a high-level character.

You can see this mob being ganged upon by a bunch of players inside the school campuses as they expect rare drops such as refining items and elemental weapons.
