FFXI New NMs 11/9/09

Don't you just love it......

Been camping a NM for 32 hours now. Im currently 0/14 with TH4...

This last pop some RDM/WHM shows up 20 min before it pops. He gets claim so fast I see it pop with purple name... And he gets drop... with no Treasure Hunter...

Im kinda #"¤¤#¤ atm...

Talk:Eldritch Edge
From FFXIclopedia, the free Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia

Was camping him earlier, thinking it dropped Helenus's Earring. Someone else ended up getting claim, he/she claimed it dropped Kyoshu Kyahan~

So this means that so far out of 4 Weapon NMs..so far only one of them has dropped the M.Acc/Atk earring? Either these people are full of shit, or we're missing a weapon NM.

I really REALLY think these people are full of shit... they really need to post screenshots of confirming these drops. It ticks me off when they don't -.-;... which is why I posted earlier that I don't trust wiki all that much with these new NMs.

I went 2/2 on Kusha's Ring with a friend right after the update that added the nm's and now we are like 2/20 for another friend. ( got both ring with th3 if that's any revelant) 0/25 or so on Lava's Ring, dunno wtf is up with the drop rate but this is fked up.

There's a NM in Xarcabard called Timeworn Warrior that seems to be a lotto pop of Lost Souls, if anyone's interested.

Any general location for this guy? There's tons of Lost Souls in Xarc. :3

The HP +60 neck is being reported to drop off the Taru. Posted on JP forums supposedly. We're gonna see if ppl will stop doing the expansion and fight it for confirmation.

Nope.. I need to go down there and look at widescan. If Thorny wouldn't mind making you a .dat for it, I'm sure it'd be easy to track down.

Going to class now, but I'll post more info on it later. :3 just killed Goblintrap another time, 0/6 as of last night. Can't wait to finish this set so I can move on to something else x.x;

Killed Taru a couple days ago and got that neck. Didn't realize it hadn't been reported here yet.

Lets do this, i wanna find it =o

[AppleJ]

Curious about the .dat swapping. Does anyone have a walkthru, like if I know the PH in the widescan list, so I can edit my own .dats?

[Symb]

trioed rdm rdm smn in about 8 minutes, no drop

Dies this Centipedal NM has somekind of strange pop condition?
Been killing pops 2 days now @ H-9, never saw it popping.....
Also, on earth weather these mobs are way stronger and open with a TP move the moment you claim them, maybe that has something to do with the pop conditions?

If some1 knows more about its pop conditions, plz share it ^^

[Despain]

I think its been determined that its pure lotto, so you're just having bad luck if you haven't spawned it yet. The thing about most of these new NMs is that there are about a dozen mobs for each of them, with one being the PH -.-;

Those scorpions can take a bit to kill, so :/

[chiyio]

1 for fucking 27 on Goaftrap all with TH4.

Theres shitty drop rates, but this is absurd. I was getting practically EVERY pop, short of a couple after maint when I couldnt log on.

[HarrisBanks]

1/4 on Helenus Earring off Eldritch Edge. Not sure which one is the PH but there are two weapons at K-9 in Rolanberry. All 4 times Eldritch pops right beside the spine at the lower part of K-9.

In b4 crappy pic I play on PS3 etc.

[Corrderio]

And the other MAB/MAC earring drops off the weapon in Sauro right?

Supposedly, yes. Currently 0/2 on it, will post SS when I get the drop.

Thanks for confirming this! I knew wiki was full of shit.

These earrings are next on my list

Bleh, thanks for the info. I'm still trying to camp Goaftrap when I'm not ready to level RDM and not having much luck ><

[Despain]

Goaftrap has a horrid drop rate. Chiyo going 1/27 with TH4 is just fucking ridiculous.

[Karbuncle]

Clearly all the new NMs have "Reverse TH" Job Trait, which makes Treasure Hunter Effect Lower drop rate, and not increase it.

SE Did this cause they thought THF Was too useful and had too much of an advantage when camping NMs, clearly.

cause so far its "I'm 0/48 with TH4, some WHM comes by and goes 1/1 lol"

Yah, I hate this game
