    Red Mage AF3

    So I really really need my AF3 Hands now...Im 2k to 56 and I should of had these at 54.

    Im having no luck with any high level help, so I thought why not do it the "old" fashion way - grab a group of people together.

    Could I form a PT, and just choose The Eldieme as camp?

    Would a PT of 56-58 be able to party well there, getting good exp and handling any links that may arise?

    Or am I completely off the mark here and would need to form a proper Coffer Hunt pt?

    Re: Red Mage AF3

    Oh yeah, buddy, time to form a pt.

    Especially at your level, soloing anything relating to AF is impossible. I hate to tell you, but since this is your first AF job, you'll have to join a coffer group, and/or enlist the aid of your LS and/or friends.

    If we don't like something, collectively, if our hatred for it throbs like an abscess beneath every thread, does that mean that they're doing something right?

      While you could try to form a EXP party I doubt you'll get 5 others to agree. Undead (usually) make poor exp targets as blood aggro and the fact that they are always harder then they seem.

        Yea, I was kinda wondering if I could get 5 others to agree - otherwise my chances of finding 5 others to come on a run by /sh are slim, I think. Like I said, everyone I know that has done these runs all seem to keep so hush hush about how they did it.

        Or do you think hanging around that area and asking to join in any coffer hunts? Maybe that would work.

            I have. This is my last resort for ideas - I have shouted and shouted until my virtual throat is sore.

            Noone wants to help

              You have to ask at just the right time to get help with a Necropolis coffer key. No one likes going there. You'll also often get more responses if you shout coffer key/skill up party. However realize that most people then won't want to just take off after your key drops.

                I dont want them to take off after my key drops - I want help finding the coffer as well XD

                What is the norm for skillup parties? If I get someone responding to the skillup party comment, what are they likely to ask?

                  You're probably on your own finding the coffer, or get a friend to help you check the areas you can't get to on your own.

                  Mainly what skill level they should be at which you could add to your shouts if you wanted. For that you're going to have find a skill level chart and compare it to the mobs you're going to be fighting. IIRC skill on a RDM sword or dagger (B level skills) has to be less then 150 to get decent skillups against what you'll be going after there. I could be off on the number though, it's been a while since I've been in the Necropolis helping someone with a coffer hunt.

                    That sounds about right to be honest. WIll be fighting Tomb Mages. I was getting good skillups on my Dagger in Yhoater Jungle, and started to clow down around 105, managed to sqeeze 110 from it. So as long as say they are 110-130 I think skillups would be fine.
