This is incorrect. I have the temp items, I left, changed jobs and came back in, still had all my temp items.

Nibiru Shield Path B Rank 15: HP +80, MP+ 80 Fast Cast+ 7

Only saw this in town, so no clue about the other paths.

looks like another shield to add to my collection

It's a shame that the system for popping is so steep. Getting a bunch of people 1000s of silts for the pop items is a nightmare because of the crowds.

I have looked through this thread but cant find my answer. Which nm drops rawhide mask please?

According to THIS someone says Yali drops it. I killed Yali once and didn't see it drop, only a ring. But that doesn't mean anything.

I'm so disappointed by it that atm I'm not even bothering with Escha.
Got so fed up with how small the area is, how low level the mobs are, how slow the repops are, how packed the area is, how annoying (Unity drops? Srsly? 1000 slit for everyone? These stupid unfriendly gatings again?) it is to pop them...
I'm confident SE will do something, either with RoV KIs or with a patch, but either way it's not gonna happen for a few months, so gonna spend my time meanwhile doing other activities. Not like I miss things to do.


Either way: has people found out where Onca Suit drops from? Anybody has a picture of how it looks?

Yeah a couple of pages back

[Sechs]

So Onca Suit drops from Urmahlullu. (T3?)
I used the search function but couldn't find anything because it was in a screenshot.
Hmmm...

Suit is actually pretty nice for dd mage sets (ddGEO?) if you don't want to mess up with the frustrating Alluvion Skirmish RNGs.
Haste level is a bit low though, gonna need a haste belt if you wanna cap haste (ruling out Ionis).
Well... could get haste+3 on Telchine Cap for a total of 25% haste which is close enough to cap I suppose.

Either way, it's a decent option. More for ddGEO/ddWHM than ddBRD though, given how ddBRD has a wider range of dd gear compared to the previous 2 jobs I mentioned.

[dasva]

ddwhm could still cap haste without having to deal with skirmish augments without belt. Well so could geo but not gunna wear lolzelus tiara just to get that last part of a percent of haste

[Sechs]

Yeah and honestly getting haste+3 on Telchine cap is the "easy part" given how it's a very cheap leaf stone (-tip) and given how the range is so small (1-3) that it's reasonably easy to get the one you want even using NQ/+1 stones.

[Lyramion]

So people finally fished up the Duskcrawler on Bahamut and someone rich started to buy the 3 items for 500k each. Personally I still have no clue what they are used for. The strange thing is how they are sorted under MISC2 next to the pop items. Same rich guy also bought a lu-shang rod just today in his history. There must be more to these items.

Tried to trade them to the NPC but nothing.



BIG EDIT FOUND IT!

Investigated JP wiki here http://wiki.ffo.jp/html/33607.html


Apparently there is a "hidden list" to trade things for KI:

Duskcrawler + Gravewood log = Blazewing's pincer
Ashweed + Gravewood log = Coven's Dust
Duskcrawler + Ashweed = Pazuzu's blade hilt


This is the only text the NPC gave me upon trade:




Checking the ??? with Coven's Dust reveals Content Level 135 fight.




Guess our LS jokes about Fishing Event in Escha just got all too real. Luckily I was able to horde a stack of Ashweed and Wood for 10 and 20k gil.

[Damane]

oh fuck no they did not put HELM as a requirement to pop those NMs... fucking shittiest design choices every made to do an event! from trash mob lvl ranges, to tribulens gating to everything else!

[Falown]

That's a nice finding here.
Good job.

Guess those 3 KIs will pop the NMs which will drop the VW-like bodies ?

[Tile]

I've found its to get Ashweed, but having a hard time getting Gravewood, since start I've only got 1

[Sechs]

Such highly debatable game design choice they went through with this Escha zone.
Here's me hoping incoming KIs or patches will make it less annoying than it currently is.

Thing is, at least for 2 more months we're likely stuck with the current (shitty) system.

[michaeldue]

Then refuse to do this sh¤#"# area content like so many is already doing. No one is forcing you to go and kill the new NMs or farm silt

[Sechs]

Absolutely! It's exactly what I'm doing. I apologize if I gave the impression I implied things to be different.

[BerenTebogo]

As much as I am enjoying my vacation I am eagerly awaiting being back just to see if I can throw 2-3 BST and 1-3 support jobs/mules at T3 and win.

If so I'd say this event will come out as a win for me since that means me and the few people I give a shit about can easily cap out on gear (like we did with HTB/unity/etc).

If not I probably will cap out on T2 and stop caring.
