Random Question Thread XV: This Is Not The Sticky You're Looking For

Kamome + Enchu OAT

WS dmg Uzuru is a pretty good weapon. Sekka +1 Dex katanas are crazy easy and fast to make and a solid weapon as well.

On that topic, where did you camp in mire with a decent amount of imps?

[arus2001]

Would imagine just roaming near Azouph SP. Might have to contend with the occasional EXP group, but feels like anyone with a job sub-75 just wants to leech Abyssea these days. Lower level imps simply aren't numerous enough with maybe 3-4 at West Nashmau exit (with undead concerns at night).

DRK: The only class to be FellCleave/Drakesbane short of boss and still bitch about needing more.

[arus2001]

I dunno, I can kinda see some merit in discontent with both the scythe and GS weapon category lacking in multi-hit crit WS these days with all the perks of RR and other goodies jobs are getting. SAMs without Fudo and solid gear are in a similar boat. Still, I like to dust off my DRK from time to time, but do hate when I'm stuck fighting things where the useful dark magic spells can't work or I never get Refresh to sustain them. May as well just be on SAM then.

Outside of birds/cointeaches.. where else can brooder pop.. i've spent the last 30-45min scouring this zone for where this thief managed to find it to kill it.. and i'm stumped

You're trying to pop it, but can't find it? Maybe it isn't up.

No monsters in vicinity = up in zone, but not close.

No monsters in area = not up anywhere in zone.

[Nitrous24]

no.. not trying to pop it.. i know it's not up.. I'm trying to find out where it died... and i've literally scoured the zone... i want to find the other possible pop spots.. because i checked all of them last time it was ready to be popped.. and this thief went somewhere i don't know about to find/kill it

[Seoin]

Are you checking near Conflux 3?

Also, are you factoring in the fact that the THF could have run it into some random corner of the map to avoid people seeing TOD?

[Clash Perez]

Does it matter where it died? He could have dragged it anywhere, regardless of where it popped. It will repop elsewhere, and you'll be able to know it's up by checking with /heal.

Am I missing something here?

Maybe deathspot camping? idk.

[Nitrous24]

It wasn't at any of the normal pop spots.. i checked them when it was still possible to pop "No monsters in the immediate vicinity" I checked all through birds. psychpomps bees.. the spots i normally find it at. and even in the rabbits.. So what i think you're missing is. I'm trying to figure out where else it can spawn outside of these normal places.

It can be around the bees, rabbits, north of rabbits, and the gigas north of bees too. I've never popped it while it was around the gigases. I've seen it there, but it usually jumped up the cliff while I was waiting for a clean pull.

[Seoin]

It can spawn deep in the giant areas.

Edit: But I know how you feel. Nothing worse than knowing Brooder is up, and not getting a read from your crystal at the usual locations.

[Nitrous24]

Thank you. That is what i was looking for. I didn't know it could spawn there. any of the 3.. or specific giants?

[zagex]

It can spawn deep in the giant areas.

In my experience, always around the southwest section of Hadal Gigas, north of bees/birds.

[Seoin]

Off the top of my head, I want to say the two groups of giants to the left and right of the entrance. (Bathyal and Hadal). I've never seen it pop as far down as Demersals.

[Kidnoftle]

If left up for awhile it can wander to con 8 as well. Not that it normally matters but the more you know etc.

[rog]

If left up for awhile

I thought this was about brooder?

[noodles355]

Was there some moderately obtainable ring released that caused Sniper+1s to crash to around 900k? Or is it still one of the best options (for non blitz melees)?

Also, did /Cor QD (Thf/Cor, Culverin+Shells) turn out to work well?

It's the fact that nobody needs acc at 85
