    Treasure Hunter

    Soooooooo, with the recent rumors or sayings and blashemy about how TH is activated being completeley upheaved, thought i would share my recent experience. My ls normally does dynamis runs with 18-20 ppl. In cities we usually come away with 180ish singles and maybe 1 or 2 hundread pieces if we are having a "god loves me" day. Last night we ran windy and we had our TH4 damage each statue before it was killed. This was the only thing we did differently, besides sacrificing that goat before we broke the glass. We walked away with 682 coins. 182 singles and 5 hundread pieces. I nearly had to change my boxers.
    Has anyone else had similar results? or is this just yet another example of the lol(insertgameconcepthere) that SE loves to shower us with?

    Yes. Had the same results. 2 years ago.

    THF needing to be on the mob's hate list isn't anything new.

    Yeah. It's really kind of intuitive. It wasn't really a surprise, just nice to have confirmation finally.

    Re: Treasure Hunter

    In one of the recent interviews, SE's development team or someone important was saying that TH is generated once the person has created a level of enmity on the particular mob. The amount of TH4's doesn't matter either. Only the single character with the highest level of TH will affect the mob.

    So, basically, have a THF hit all the mobs to accumulate the TH capability.

    Sorry, I don't have a link, but it's in one of the WoTG threads.

    Edit: I re-read your post, and realized you probably read about this already, but for those who haven't, it's a reference to those who don't know about the TH activation.

    the thf doesnt even have to strike any mobs.


    Step 1) type /heal.

    Congratulations, you now just stuck your TH on all the mobs.

    Or shit, just have the THF pull. All popped mobs will immediately aggro him!

    Those mobs link to the stone unless the thief is close enough to be sought by the monster. It's link enmity which isnt real enmity.

    Re: Treasure Hunter

    I was under the impression the Thief had to actually hit (or use a job ability on) the mob. /healing for hate seems a little too passive. (I love you Wafik, don't hate me.)

    Re: Treasure Hunter

    aggro enmity probably doesn't work b/c like what wafik said. it's a different type of enmity.
    try aggroing a mob. kite it, don't do a thing to it at all, just let it chase you and take dmg from it's hits. now have someone cure you. their cures don't generate hate.
    now do something to the mob. any cures after that will generate enmity on the mage.
    there needs to be aggressive enmity on any mob for a job trait to work. like if you farm gigas in qufim and have a afk thf in your party, there's no gilfinder effect. but if you have the thf perform a action on the mob then kill it yourself, double the gil will drop.
    but anyway. most of you probably already knew this <_>

    I guess the question then is, will gilfinder activate if said afk thf is /healing next to where you fight the gigas?

    Even better.

    Re: Treasure Hunter

    Or just throw a chakram or boomerang at stuff? That's what I do in Dynamis. I figure if it prevents me from hiding while the mob isn't looking at me, I'm on the hate list.

    Could throw a Mamoolbane or something I guess, to keep sleeping mob sleeping.

    Still think /BRD would be better. At least you could throw up a trash support song, but Ballad1 is Ballad1. Better than nothing.
