Could we get a translate, please, Camate or Bayohne? (http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/threads/8183-Pandemonium-Warden%E3%81%A8%E6%88%A6%E3%81%84%E3%81%9F%E3%81%84%EF%BC%81?p=176150#post176150)

Google gives a good hint, but I'd like to see some actual English.

[Yoky]

Hello.
Have an end as early as in August. It is fast.

Now, I have gotten a little time from our previous announcement, then changed to 100 percent drop tail / Tigger skin / Sarameya Tinnin Fang in the next upgrade. If you have a trigger, I can not wait that little bit longer please!

As for the beauties of nature will adjust itself, as we reported earlier, we plan a different timing.


Thats a copy and past from google translate.

Looks like the PW/mythic trophies will become 100%

[Camate]

Howdy!

As Yoky has stated above, during the next version update we will be making it so Tinnin's Fang, Sarameya's Hide, and Tyger's Tail are a 100% drop rate.

Further adjustments to the Zeni Notorious Monster will take place at a later date.

This was always one of my favorite systems. In our old LS, I was in charge of running our ZNM program.

I liked how you didn't have to camp for hours on end to fight an NM. The gear was pretty good, and except for the Tinnan etc, the pop item for the next mob had always been guaranteed. You had a choice about what you could fight, and the zeni farming wasn't that bad.

Nice to hear drops will be 100%. I've never fought PW, looking forward to it.

I love you, thanks.
This will make getting a Mythic slightly less annoying. xD
Can't wait to see future Aht Urhgan updates.

I liked how you didn't have to camp for hours on end to fight an NM.No, instead you had to take pictures of NMs for hours on end (Unless you use the Naul trick, but since those things aren't exactly teddy bears, its a bit harder to take lots of pictures of the same one without some help)

we going to get lower points required for a particular item and high point value for pictures to make the content even more open, so the people who have nothing but time on their hands to get picture points aren't the only ones who are able to spam this NM system?

PS: again the japanese side gets better detail, although Camate is not in trouble because of the colloquialisms

[Kari]

No, they're pretty much teddy bears.
I have no idea why you think you need help with this.

[Vagrua]

Camate might be out of a job if users keep updating english forums before him. :p

Because you have to have them claimed and at low HP to take pictures? That's not as simple as you think when you're getting beat on? If you're not attacking them and you're solo, they will unclaim, and if you're attacking them and they're at low HP, you'll eventually kill them and have to fight another. If you have a friend with you, they can just hold it and backtank while you snap away. It's not "hard", it's just an annoyance and makes it take longer than if you were taking pictures of something lower level of a different mob type. Yes, different jobs are better/worse at this, but not everyone has every job leveled.

Taking pictures takes time. It's not like taking a ton of pictures for zeni + killing a whole bunch of NMs isn't time consuming, which is my real point. How is taking tons of pictures and killing a whole tree full of NMs beffer than "camping an NM"? Really. I want to know.

[Soundwave]

Seriously... :( Haha

/comfort;););)

[Mirage]

It's more varied, for one, and you're guaranteed a claim.

[Kari]

Any prepared player can tank a Naul.
Either evade, have a way to cure yourself, whatever.
Or if you're smart, you can just sleep it.

If you're really worried about keeping claim on it, disengage and cast a weak spell or ability.
These mobs do not hit hard at 90, anyway.

I was never arguing that ZNMs was better than waiting for an NM to pop, that was someone else's dealie.
But, personally, taking pictures isn't so bad. It's less boring and less time consuming then killing an underleveled lotto-pop 3+ times for trials, for example.


Seriously... :( Haha

We love you Camate.
Google translate works at times, but it's always nice to know what it means in plain English, and not have to rely on assumptions.
Keep us updated, we don't care how small the information is, we love news.
Speaking of, give us the date of the patch already! :3

I dont no if it was changed or not seeing as i never did these back in the day. However i was taking picture of naul today and ill inform you of a few things.

You can take pictures of them unclaimed. I was their on my thf in eva build, with C&D atma for added eva, and the top two Regen atmas. It was more then enough to be able to stand their and take his hits with out my hp ever going down. I took him down to low hp, and disengauged. I took all my pictures while i was disengauged. And i was able to hand them all in for about 100 zeni a peice. No spells, no DoT.

"Why Hello there, Hell's Guardian."

Imagine saying that in a Hannibal Lecter voice.

[Coldbrand]

My love for him is conditional based on whether nor not he acknowledges there's a problem with Camlann's Torment and if he tells me the devs are doing something about it along with the buffs to the relics/mythic WSs.

[Rakshaka]

Oh man... I went through 28 Sarameyas before a hide dropped for Nirvana...
At least no one else will have to go through the same nightmare

[Septimus]

Seriously... :( Haha

Bah. Google translate has nothing on you, Camate. Can Google Translate quote old FFXI memes? I think not.

Not to mention that 70% of the times it is complete jibberish because of specific game terms that it wouldn't know.

Getting rid of Camate would be like breaking alliance after Nighogg, there would be too much drama for it to be feasible.

[Cursed]

awe man =/ there goes my 10mil trophy sales Q.Q
Hachi pants will probably drop in price now too since everyone will be after a Mythic Q.Q

[Juilan]

Camate needs his private JP dev and translator so he can post before the JPs!
And now I'm reading the JP update posts since my head works better than lol google

[Miera]

Time to collect more Zeni..

So looking at the update notes... Guess this didn't kick off as mentioned... Right?

[MDenham]

/facepalm

Right above the "Item-related" section:



The NMs Tinnin, Sarameya, and Tyger will now always drop the following items:




Tinnin: Tinnin's Fang
Sarameya: Sarameya's Hide
Tyger: Tyger's Tail

[Garota]

Oh wow, that's it? I didn't feel like reading through all that, so I Ctrl+F ZNM, Zeni, Aht Urhgan, Pandemonium Warden... And nothing... But wow, that's all we get for AU update content? Meh... Thanks for finding it for me :)
