In Abyssea, enemies triggered by colorful demilune abyssite have been relocated.

Always vague.

Why do I get the horrific feeling they will make them possible to spawn anywhere within the Abyssea zones now, if they actually do that it will make these so much more horrible. Especially considering JP players do everything with mass numbers of players and competing with that will be next to impossible.

I assumed it meant all mobs would spawn inside sight and/or sound aggro mob camps only now instead of the no/partial time aggro camps of before.

This means they won't spawn in there "always will spawn here" location, which means campers will have a special surprise.

That still lends more to larger groups monopolizing them due to the ability to have 2-3 people in each area to get a reading. Well worse for the small man groups.

I wonder if this will screw over all of those 3rd pt trackers those bastards use to insta-pop. /hope.

You mean the ones that were completely removed from being able to work patches ago?

Anyone tried popping these yet and see how they work?

Unless they access the server and track the mob (which would make it easily caught), it's pretty tough to do that now, since they are server side now.

POS hacks are quite annoying, but I've not dealt with people who use them for many years. On a few occasions I've camped these VNMs against groups where one person would be tracking T2 with apradar, but didn't have the colorful abyssite to pop it. Major flaw on his part for giving away the position lol all I had to do was beat his lackees to the pop. Not all 3rd party tools give the user the advantage all the time apparently haha

Obligatory you must be hacking because you can pop them faster than me.

Anyone know what the relocation thing did to them yet?
