AF the biggest pain ever!!

[Beastlord]

I am haveing absolutely no luck getting my AF armor, I just got lvl 55 and I have the AF cap and AF bow, The only reason I got these is because I basically soloed them both. I managed to get the Garliage key and Crawlers Nest key, but I cannot manage to get help to help find the coffer in the citadel, I dont know this place at all. Crawlers Nest I think i can solo but I also have no map and would be easier if I can get someone to show me the coffer spawn spot. I got in a PT to get the Davoi key for the Jerkin, we got 3 PT alliances going and headed up there, it was very disorganized and a few people died just getting through the cave to the hill with the orcish dragoons and farkillers. The dragoons are a nusace and the damn farkillers aggro from 2 far a distance but we eventually got to pulling one at a time, we fought these guys for over 2hrs with no drop, suddenly i got DC'ed I logged back in after 4 unsuccesful server errors, the other rng who needed a key said he got it and found the coffer, I was like WTF, and the pt was tired by then and started disbanding so I was eventually forced to run home. >< What a pain! I couldnt believe he did that knowing that we both needed the key!

Garlaige Citadel is the worst coffer to find, since you actually need people to help you get it (to pass through the 1st,2nd, and 3rd banishing gates.) My advice is just find 3 people (preferably mages that can sneak/invisible, a BLM can be handy if you need to escape as well.) If you don't have people in there camping the coffers already, just keep running around looking for it, if there are people there camping you can either come back again later, or sit down far away from the campers, and just wait for the coffer to spawn in your area. For Monastic Cavern, you're better off just getting 3-4 more high level players (Like 65+) and just pulling orcs to the exit which takes you to the center island in Davoi. The Monastic Cavern coffer is very easy to find (took me like 5 seconds), so don't worry about that. With Crawlers Nest you should either get the alt-tab fix so you can check where you're going, or print off a map from some website.

So just to sum that all up, for GC, get 3 people (mages are better) and just check behind the 2nd gate first, if nothing is there fan out behind the 3rd. If people are camping it, just camp in a different area and hope it pops near you. For Monastic Cavern, only bring 3-4 high level players. For CN just find a map and get your bearrings.
