  • Scavenging in OZ >.> 8 hours spent... still nothing

    ; ; I'm wondering if I'm just having extreme bad luck or is it normal... I'm on my Ranger AF2 quest where I need to scavenge the pond in OZ. I got the ED part done, got the cut scene from the chief telling to search the pond.

    At first I came with my 67Rdm/Rng. Scavenging for 4 hours no luck. So I switched to 50Ranger/25Whm and after another 4 hours here, I finally found a silver arrow head >.>

    I'm sure I'm at the right pond with parasites.... Any advice? Should I scavenge around different corners of the pond? Or keep trying at the center?

    update - another hour has passed... found an arrow wood log and an ash wood log.

    Are you sure you are scavenging right in the middle? all my friends took that advice and have gotten it all on firt try, including me. Make sure you are directly on the center.

      ok so after 5 hours total trying with ranger... I tried relog... log out, log back in and got it first try -_-
      this is so wrong... something to do with me not logging out for weeks?

          Yeah, FFXI is telling you your character needs to sleep... Even pixilated images need some shut-eye every now and then.

            I think it's really random of when it pops, but it also seems to have like a spawning delay or something. I spent about 26 hrs scavenging that spot, I finally got it on first try after doing what was suggested to me of using an Earth Staff. Don't know if that really helped or not, but the dead center thing definatly wasn't working for me.

            I think it must have some sort of spawning time mainly because after I got it the 4 other RNGs tried and none of them got it. 1 of them I think was at it longer then me he said he saw 2 people get it every 12hrs. so don't know if that might be it too.

              I had a friend who had this same problem, he logged out, when he logged back in he got in on the 1st try also.
