Sergeant Major Promotion Question

[Falsted]

Sorry for the nub question, but I'm hoping you can help me.

I'm working on the Sergeant Major promotion quest and I've managed to complete the first task (counting the push-ups). I'm having problems with the second task--the sit-ups. I can go 10/10 on practice rounds, but my timing seems to be off when I have to try and watch over the 3 NPC's.

Is there some trick to doing this? Also, does Naja require any other little tasks after this?

Appreciate the help. :D

Same as the practice really, wait for all 3 of them to hit the ground and their elbows to stop moving before you press enter, after this task there is one more which is running and then you get to rank up

I am having problems with the last task...the running one, keeping them inline...any pointers? It seems so simple to do, but driving me crazy as i just can't get them to finish all at the same time!

[NynJa]

the running one, they can fall back pretty far. Its more that you need to time it so they all hit the finish line at the same time.

lol OUCH!

Do you have to repeat all 3 stages until pass or can you pass the first two then fail on last and only have to repeat the last stage on your next attempt?

[Kaylia]

Only have to repeat the one you failed

First of all, you can fake dc if you fail midway before the trial end, you wont have to wait one day.

Second, do the practice until you hear the right sound after every sit up. Click like 0.3sec after they stop moving completely, and you should hear the right chirp.

To answer my own question, No.

As I discovered last night the 3rd stage sucks. It seems like 1 guy always stops about 2 seconds before the finish line and I can't get him to catch back up.

[Brook]

Please kill me so I never have to see another sit up again...please!

[Lordwafik]

I went 1/1 on all 3, don't see the problem at all with these. Just turn up your volume, even if you hate FF's music.

[Brook]

Right after I posted (and read about sound), turned my sound up and
I passed sit ups!!!

[Lordwafik]

hurrah! Congrats

This rank up is the most retarded thing ever. I'm stuck at the pushups and Naja doesn't know how to fucking count.

What I did for that one was just watch two of them and counted for them. I assumed that exactly one of the three would fall short of the requirement.

This rankup wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the one day wait inbetween retries.

That's an interesting thought actually. Has anyone ranked up and had all three idiots do the right number of pushups? Sure makes life easier if it is set so that one always fails...
