    1020 is achieved by killing 50 mobs. However, there is still a randomization as to how many mobs will pop in each group.

    Interesting....
    Will the aspect of being in a specific grand company be diminished so that it is in name only, without any other tangible impact?

    Naturally I am happy to go do more things with friends who unfortunately choose the wrong grand company (kidding!), but am curious where this course of action will lead.

    I'm worried about this too. I like the fact that we're going to be able to help out with other caravans, but what about GC-pride ;-;?

    I hope we get some kind of incentive to do caravans with a group of only one GC (like mini-Ifrit).
    Perhaps get a boost or not get full seals if you're in a mixed caravan.

    Getting 1020 on adder side requires to stop/hold caravan @ 4 specific points and wait about 1 min for extra mob spawn and even then... getting more than 50 kills still requires luck on other mob spawns. And if my memory serves correctly, the positions for popping extra mobs are:
    1. Before overhead bridge, right after passing lone tree about a feet away.
    2. Right beside the green-mossy fallen log @ open area.
    3. Just after leaving that open area, on middle of horizontal path that looks like this: =/\=
    4. When almost reaching Hyrstmill, there's a 3 way road ahead. Stop just before that intersection.

    If extra mob (it's wolves for adders) didn't spawn within a minute, quickly release the hold because either u screw up the position, or it wasn't on the right place yet especially @ point 4 above. And save ur blizzara for BLMs and unleash when these extra popped because they can hit hard on caravan.

    At the end, make sure ur pt got at least around 2 - 3 mins left when reaching finish so that ur pt can quickly initiate the next caravan escort. Fail, and ur pt have to wait around 10-15 mins before allowed for next run.

    At least last night my pt got 1k seals 3 times out of 7 tries.

    As for making sure not getting the lowest reward (500 seals), either make sure u get the 8 min speed run (need @ least 4 blm experienced enough to achieve this) or at least pop extra mob @ 2 location from the pop list above.

    With a little training, u guys shud be able to handle the adder caravan. Special thanks from friends @ LS where I'm in.

    Maybe stormers & flamers can provide their own caravan holding positions.

    I do the flame level 45 caravan run all the time and have yet to get over 750 seals. If anyone knows if there are spots to stop to cause extra mobs to spawn and where they are, I'd like to know.
