Im crossing my figner that the two key item ??? pops are the ones that drop the 50 items for empyrean weapons, and SE was nice enough to make it something along the lines of "everyone who has key item can click the ??? to obtain one of the items" which would make what would've been a giant dick of a quest actually managable and just at the right point of fun.

Personally I am kind of confused as to why they didnt just make it "kill chloris 50 times" like the rest of the trials. Would've been far simpler for shells.

Please read the thread. That is not how it works. People have popped and killed Carabosse, and she only dropped 2 gems. Also, that would be a terrible system because the person who gets the key items is either the person who trades the items to pop the NM or the person who claims the NM.

Ah one question for everyone, my group got a Sanguinet the other night, dropped off an epheremeal limule.

I checked out synergy lists, crafting, quests, pop item lists.... Wtf is this thing for?

Just a simple Tahrongi-A quest. Wish more people would just sell them on AH, I can't find any.

Cleansing the Canyon

Client: Kupipi (Central Encampment, Abyssea - Tahrongi)

Summary: Fearsome fiends prowl the path to the western encampment, cutting off valuable supply routes and placing the survivors' well-being in peril. At Kupipi's behest, thin the ranks of these foes and return with three sanguinets as proof of the deed.

The drop rate sucks ass, we've killed about 40 of them so far and have a total of... 1

Edit: Thank you though! Very much obliged.

on the forbbiden key thing

i got one and used it on a blue chest and got 1k crour!!! pretty damn awesome!

both key and chest were from same type of mob...dont know if that means anything or not. so to the previous post about getting nothing from a chest is common...cant give a straight answer as no one has enough info yet to really give a conclusive answer. but i speculate its as random as getting a chest to drop in the first place.

[Rokku]

I have a key I'm going to use on a chest tonight. Going to peer in the chest before using it and see if the reward ends up differing from what can be seen through that command, or if the key is just an essential skeleton key for Abyssea chests. I assume it's probably the former, since the rewards I've seen from people using keys (1k cruor, 10 minute time extend) seem to vary greatly from the standard drops from the chests.

I just went up from level 0 to level 1 fame in Tahrongi-A. So far in total I've done His Box His Beloved, Refuel and Replenish, and Weapons Not Worries repeated 6 times iirc.

At fame 1 I was able to flag the quests "Savory Salvation" and "Bringing Down the Mountain".

Sorry if this has been mentioned, have read from the entire thread over a few days but my memory isn't perfect.

Does anyone know the repop of the ??? for the popped NMs?
Thanks

[miokomioko]

Is there literally no way to do Refuel/Replenish if none of the Martellos in the zone aren't depleted enough? I even used a Martello and it didn't consider it low enough to require refueling. With a 30-minute cooldown to use it again, if no one else is using it, you're screwed on that quest unless you have a full party or so you can command to use a Martello so you can finish the quest. Solo, you seem to be hosed.

About 2 minutes after the NM dies.

Did Unbreak His Heart once in la theine and unlocked; Catering Capers, Gift of Light, and The Angling Armorer. The rest of the NPCs gave me rather unfriendly messages.

Popped Limule NM, Bat Trio NM, and Hecteyes NM today. Killed the Sandworm (Minhocao) and popped the Couerl but those guys are old news.

No drop on anything except the Hecteyes, Ophanim. The Bat Trio was Treble Noctules, and the Limule was Vetehinen.

Oh and Tefenet's weakness is Bio II, lol. Every time we cast Bio II a !! appeared.

According to JP Wiki, Nahn drops the +4 Blue Skill/Sword Skill neck. Nahn is in La Theine, fished up in the big pond.

I was thinking about this and assembling a list of known weaknesses is all we may be able to do. SE specifically said the same strategy won't work if it's used too much. It'll be interesting to see whether certain NMs will only have specific weaknesses or whether all will just randomly change to almost any weaponskill/spell in the game.

When we killed it, I'm 95% sure Flash made it "!!"... maybe it has more than one weakness, or maybe it changes?

[Darkmagi]

Pretty sure dialogue in Abyssea shows an NPC saying that monsters will change their weakness. Was somewhere in this thread.

[CaitsithCrumb]

pretty sure i've read that the SE notes say their weaknesses can change.

edit: beaten to this lol.
