    Vilma's ring

    Hey guys. I'm interested in the NM Rosegarden. It's an nm that pops in Yuhtunga and drops Vilma's ring. There's not much information on this nm, except for that it pops when it's PH isn't killed.

    My actual question: Can you hold the Ph? like.. if I threnody it to hold hate, will Rosegarden still pop? Or does the PH need to stay unclaimed?(I've heard the PH actually turns into Rosegarden..but the person who told me has never camped it.)

    Also... Any further information would be greatly appreciated. Anyone who has actually camped this NM/has the ring...any advice would be great. Thank you.

    Has to stay unclaimed.

    Edit: 1/7 on ring.. never camped it either. I've heard far worse droprates, to be honest unless you just want it for the novelty you could farm and buy a serket, ether, astral(listed the 3 since it'd fit as a 40 cap ring, /shrug), wisdom ring, and whatever the lv36 mnd+3 ring is in half the time <_>

    This nm is not worth it at all. If I remember correctly its 13hr then it spawns and it has a terrible drop rate and I have seen people kill the Ph when someone is camping it just to fuck with them.

    Kill the PH. ~10 hours 15 minutes later Rose Garden will pop from the PH if it does not perform any actions, or have any actions performed on it. Pop time for 6 pops I saw were all consistent at 10 hours 15 minutes-10hours 30minutes. I'm not sure if it can take longer to pop.

    3 kills and noticed the same, no drop though (10 hours, 15 mins-30 mins)

    Also, if anyone aggros the PH either by being low level, or /heal nearby, that resets the timer also. After going 0/13 on drop, I gave up. Like what Thorny said, so much easier to farm gil for a similar ring (Astral, Ether, Serket), or get ToD on Vivian and camp that.

    Vivian isn't that much better of an option.
    Drop rate is horrible on that too, but at least you'll be killing something.

    That's really the shittiest thing about camping that stupid NM. People will kill it to fuck with the camper(s), no ands ifs or buts. I was helping a friend with it some months back, and I'd say some passerby killed it then proceeded to /laugh at us more than 50% of the time. The fastest I ever saw it spawn was 9 hours.

    Too true.

    I was camping this for fun a year ago for about 8 hours and out of no where this Galka 75 RDM/BST comes with invisible on, had a charmed mandy sic-ed onto the PH, all the while running away so that we don't catch him in the act. Searched the zone as I saw the blue mandy name and immediately did a /ta NAMEHERE, but no luck on finding him. Just complete and utter bullshit.
