    I probably wouldn't see it, I have aurik math filters turned on for all forums I read I think if you were to commercially buy them, they're called "Horse Blinders."

    Found out another thing earlier, i got a little R0 lag problem while kiting the captain, the "Huh ?! What ?" was ok, and i got raped because of this. The captain unclaimed, starting to go back to his cabin slowly, i reraised, took him back, but we didn't have the 3rd chest.

    So i guess it had to stay claimed or at least with hate on someone or the 3rd chest will be disabled... Well, seems so.

    Not really.

    We all stay outside and our RDM use Powder Boots run in and hit the captain (he has to hit him when he miss you only get two chests). Than he Gravity the captain and pull Bubbly out to us. The captain loose hate after some secs and dont even make it to us. After we killed Bubbly the Captain is running around his table. Just voke him and kill.

    0/4 but hey Hydra Scales from a ??? Box >_>;

    OMG, thats it.

    Khamsin is missing.

    I always pull, and I always still used sneak attack, and flee, just because it takes nothing extra from me to do it, and I have not had a problem getting 3 chests, since I figured out how to do it.

    Sooooo,

    Sneak Attack makes that first swing 100% accurate.

    If Khamsin is decked out in kiting gear, its possible that he's missing. Especially if he is using something like an Earth Staff to reduce any damage taken.

    That is so going to be the solution.

    We tried the ole flag the quest the day before then show up the next day > do the fight > back to Nash > fllag again > back to the cutter > comes up for everyone that they can start it > ...

    Then we get the awesomeness that is "not all of your party meets the requirments for this objective" BS. GG, we spent forever trying to figure it out. Zoned, logged, reformed pt, tried kicking peopel out one by one, even tried starting it out if party by single members, and still got the same message. (Funny to get the "not everyone in your PARTY" mesage when you are solo).

    Called a GM and 252424 hours later he came back and said we should submit a bug report. Good times.

    Here is a video showing how I pull the captain, using SA.

    Hope y'all like it, because it took far too much effort to make

    Good video.

    Almost exactly what I do.

    Your THF, and you don't bother with flee? I always do, but obviously not needed. Flee gets me in for the hit, and back out in no time.

    I was surprised at how slow that captain was coming after you however.

    Anyways, good for anyone to see what needs to be done. Its deffinately not hard, but not what anyone would come up with as a strat on their own, without knowing there was a defferent chain of events to pop additional chests.

    This BC is definitely wierd... I think twice on like 30 runs i died while kiting the captain and that cancelled the 3rd chest while he was going back slowly to his cabin, despite having the "Huh ?! What ?" message. Bah...

    The other wierd thing (causing my deaths) is that when he is upstairs in the locker and i am downstairs, or the other way, he seems to "pos-hack" to me sometimes, and my avatars do it as well. I'll summon a new Fenrir when mine is dead, and if i'm not on the same level as the captain Fenrir will just "poof" and pop on him. Must be some wierd pathfinding bug, not really annoying when Fenrir does it but when it's the captain well... Taru HP. <3

    Any SMN try this, it's really wierd to see when you're used to avatar recast distances for soloing.

    In order to get 3rd chest, hate on captain must not be lost, otherwise it'd be impossible to get the "Ugh,What!!" message since he won't be facing the window on the static position after the first hate reset.

    And yeah...he does POS hack his way every now and then...

    I have had hate lost for about 15 seconds, and him start heading back to the cabin, and still pop 3 chests.

    I'm not sure exactly where the line is drawn, but very minimal time can be had without hate, and still work.

    I thought for sure it had ruined the 3 chests when it happened...

    My group had me switch to thf now on the capt. We had the main kiter for the capt doing it b4 but he missed once and a while. Had 3 chests last night which we ended up with a 2nd ??? box.

    I just have the timing down without flee, so I keep doing it that way. In XP parties sometimes I'll mess up my alignment for SA when I run up to something with flee on, so that's why I started pulling the Captain without it...at this point it's just habit.

    If he lost hate to a point where he reset his dialogue, you lose the 3rd chest.

    This can happen when he either aggro someone on his way back and say the "Huh! Where did you come from?" line, or he went back to the cabin and start patrolling in front of the table (which would result in the above line when you attempt to pull him)

    Hm, it could be that I'm missing since I usually pull with staff. I did try once with Joyeuse-pulling, but I don't recall if I hit or not.

    I'll try it decked out in full lolmeleeRDM gear and see.

    I did, thanks! lol, it pretty much is exactly what I do, only I don't use Sneak Attack. Maybe I have missed every time, since RDM has no staff skill, but I did use Joyeuse to pull once... maybe I missed that one time, too.

    I'll try it with Joyeuse/Justice Sword next pull to be extra sure of landing a hit. lol
