Can you change drop rate for rare/ex items to 100%

Re: Can you change drop rate for rare/ex items to 100%

... OK, there's something you need to consider.
1. Using FFXI Windower is against ToA/EULA (amirite?)
2. Not everyone has multiple PCs.
3. Not everyone has a TV + PC in the same room.
4. Not everyone can be doing something AND concentrate on competing against 5+ other players.
See how logically unsound your advice is?
We're not talking about any old Tom Tit Tat NMs here either. Let's not kid ourselves.

Necro'd!!!!

Tom Tit Tat needs love to!

Go do bcnm where plenty of these items drop too.

Oh really? So I can get abjurations from BCNMs too? Wow that's news to me...

You've heard it hear first, folks. Omni said that BCNMs are the best way to gear up over everything in this game.

Plenty != all.

Good job on the reading comprehension once again.

Some people mentioned e-bow and the 24 hour shadows. As well as a lot of highly sought after pieces are now in bcnm. kclub, hairpin, boots, charm, serket, cc, ebow, etc.

But hey, if you want to whine about not getting any abjs then I guess they should just give them us. Since that would make everyone happy. Everyone can have ebody and dalmatica. Actually better yet, why dont they npc sell them? Let's make rare awesome equip as common as the buburimu grapes.

Then dont camp. Go do bcnm where plenty of these items drop too. Dont have seals? go solo. Dont want to do anything for anything? then tough shit.
If you go into nm camping with the mentality that you are or you might waste your time, then it probably isnt something you should do.
Sev: ya there should be the santa rabbit out in w.ron. kill it and it drops everything you could ever want forever.

Can we name him fluffy and make him only pop once every 12 min?

If you want to have an attitude:

Abjurations in BCNMs?
YES!!

This has been Channel 5, The leader in BCNM news.

Bcnms are a great way to get gear up, you can do bcnms for the piece of gear you want or gil to buy your gear. Sky Abjurations are very easy to get, yes they make take multiple kills and some work but it is easy to do god runs.

Q: But Sevv Sky takes effort?
A: Sky takes a Linkshell commitment, everyone wants gear that is what drives ls to help each other out in sky. People who don't want to commit or work to better the linkshell, should not get the gear.

Q: But Sevv I want King Gear?
A: I also want gear from kings, I don't have the time to commit 100% because of real life. I don't cry over it and want it changed. Getting rid of bots would be a big help but with the windower source code being released the other day, botting will pick up a bit more now. If you can't do 2 min of paying attention and 28 of afk in cycles you really don't want the gear.

Q: Sevv What are you trying to tell me?
A: R/E endgame gear takes effort from a group of people, If everyone leaves after they get that piece of gear like you plan to do, then you will never get it. If you know you can't commit to endgame and don't cry over gear you have my respect.

Good Gear = Effort

No but you can get Abjurations from Eihnerwhatzit. Its not perfect, but it's doable. Besides, abjurations shouldn't even be part of the discussion. The post was about NMs with a 'single' rare/ex drop like Argus, Lizzy, VE, Taisaijin, Bho'Who Warmonger, Rose Garden, Stubborn Dredvodd or my favorite, Noble Mold.

In most cases, the items are available in multiple locations. Others, such as the Carect Ring, have alternatives and are considered 'luxury' items to a degree.

I spent more then six months to get a Carect Ring. Overall, I went 1/9. I agree that mobs like that with extreme drop conditions should have higher drop rates but who's to say I wasn't just unlucky? SE has made it so that there are some items in the game that are just plain rare. Carect Ring, Speleunker's Hat, Rain Hat and Vilma's Ring are just a few examples. By no means are you required or expected to have any or all of them. SE has always had a knack for rewarding stubborn persistence though. (see: Lightning Dodger)

ambrosia is awesome. especially when you pop one while playing a lv. 12 job. you basically become 50% more the character you were for 3 hours!

Honestly, you don't need these rare/ex items from these NMs to be a top notched player. Maybe if you're a perfectionist, but to be a all around good player no.

Leave the NM camping to those who want to do it. Would I like a pair of leaping boots for my thf? Sure would. Am I going to spend 4+ hours of my life staring at my computer screen to have a CHANCE of tagging leaping lizzy for the chance that the boots MIGHT drop? Hell no.

Just think of it this way, thats 4+ hours you're doing something else you enjoy whether it be in or out of the game.

NM campers make me feel even better about myself then I already do. <3
