Does he sleep?
Curious how having 99 mil instead of 100 mil keeps you from buying something wrong.im always below 100m XD just incase i bought something wrong!!! other gils are on my cute onion head taru
Love chocolates for 99,999,999 are pretty cool.
I wish I had your free time Arthars, I was churning out those emps during my christmas break, but only playing like 2 days a week is not enough to keep it up ;(
Been halfway done with my armageddon and kannagi for like a month now. Yay for spring break in a week, finally a break from classes and labs and essays and exams..
And then they get mad when you check them![]()
i only farm 4 hours a day max....
1 hour 3 sets = aprox 5 item...so 4 hours is 20
i have to work too XD
dont waste time on farming time or farm triggers... just use rocks and buy from ah![]()
How do 3 stones a day keep up with 4 hours of ingame time? even at 48mins a stone that is 2hr's 20mins...
Just when my group knocks out empy's we usually have to farm atleast an hour of time per 2hrs we wanna be in there or people start running out of stones. and we are in 5-6 days a week at about 4 hrs each.
Tribe, check PM I sent you, lol...maybe you can post it incase I clearly misunderstood something

I have 320 rocks still. my mules each have about 300 now. Im sure many people out there have way more rocks than me
i used to farm time before every NM session...but i figured that since i got 300 rocks, i can skip that part now and fully focus on building empy...
kannagi took me 7 days(abyssea NM phase) during lvl 85 cap, i farmed time etc, farm triggers etc...
since then each empy took me 4-5 days max(abyssea NM phase), not counting the lottery NM trials. In this period, i actually didnt lose or gain any rocks...because in between each empy, i have to spend 3-4 days camping lottery NMs(I rest during this stage lol just afk and check lottery NM every 3-4 hours....) so rocks managed to build a lil to break even or slight loss
people who dual/trio box here will prolly spend the same amount of time to build an empy, abyssea phase that is.
If your in a group, then obviously you need more time to build one yourself since you have to rely on others
Once again if you don't farm time, and you spend 4hrs+ a day in-zone doesn't make much sense really.
And also I don't understand how people get that many stones? friend of mine bought first expansion when it came out, was out of game for well over 3 months, came back we got him all the -4hr abyssites. he only had 176 stones. 320 stones for someone who has made 4 90 empy's sounds like a flat lie.
Silly to even ask or argue about it though since non of it really matters. you could have 9million stones and would be completely irrelevant lol.
ok im sorry i lied, its not 320
its a typo its 302, and i dont have 4 lvl 90 empy, who told you that? its 3x90 and 1x85

any other questions before we move on?
dont assume people lie about stuffs like rocks if you cant manage your own rocks...
ask everyone on ifrit how fast i can farm and claim a NM w/o a fucking bot. 3 NM sets an hour is cakewalk. partly cos ifrit is not that camped yet, and i live in SG which i can play flexible in any hour
my friend is @8 sobek skin and i was @28...today im done and hes still @8ish. Im not saying he sucks, im just refering how soloing speed can differ from relying on groups
im sorry if i suck less
and also, 4-5 days max is to deliver an 80+85 empy
getting 90 empy alone need 3+ days
anyway i didnt say i can get a lvl 90 empy in 2-3 days, check my previous post, i posted 85 and 90s empy seperately
You people need to get arrested for dabbling in rock. Just sayin~
wtb .dat to rename all rocks/stones to granite
You have 302 Traverser Granites!
Or crack.
takes anywhere from 8 - 20 minutes for me to cap lights, varies on zone I don't see why you wouldn't take the time to do it, then get TE passively as you're killing shit.
i do this before. I farm at least 300 min before i start to do anything before.
but when ur sitting on 300 rocks now, knowing theres nothing much to farm anymore, and you will never run out of rocks...you will wanna save that 20 mins
i usually just go into a zone, kill a murex in the way and hit the NMs. i bring triggers in too, so i dont even farm mobs to get any boxes....
after i kill 3 sets of NM > farm 3 more sets with the trigger i brought in, do a time spawn in between(gukumatz) if needed > D2 > buy from AH > go in again > repeat
only time i farm trigger now is if AH have no stock, or i hope the 2-3 mobs i kill in between ??? repop drop them.
I dont waste any more time inside now with 300 rocks sitting around.
Im not saying you guys should do what im doing, im just saying theres no need to do anything extra when u think you have enough rocks to last almost forever.
Being said, and again, if your in group, then obviously its not 1 person's call to do anything. Everyone has to agree and if 1 of them are short of rocks or feel the need to farm TE, then of course you cant do what im doing.
what im doing consumes rocks....but is fast in terms of empy item payout/hour....however the rock consumption is not to the extend where you will run out of them
