    ehh maybe on your server.. on siren they are still camped heavily.. even with an average of 700 people online at any given time during NA time


    I'll use my previous example i tried to camp adamantoise 4 days in a row a couple weeks back.. so thats about 12 wasted hours.. also during retarded times of the day.. in which i never managed to get claim.

    a fifth day of not getting claim wouldn't be unreasonable.. ive been outclaimed many times

    so lets say about 15 hours wasted or round it up to 16 hours for the time it would have taken to arrive at the camp each day


    During that time you could have spent 16 hours doing magian trials and getting kindred seals at the same time

    so a seal drops once every 5 mins .. 50% chance beastmen or kindred so we could say a kindred seal drops about once every 10 mins on average

    10 mins * 99 = 990 mins or 16.5 hours... so for anybody camping an hnm and isn't getting a claim more often than once every 5 days this system is far better

    Which would seem to be most people at least on my server... the same people always claim the hnm's.. there is always one group who claims behemoth because they are camping Dring

    So if for whatever reason you dont want to spend all that retarded time camping hnm's

    every 5 days or so of doing random magian trials or exp in non-abyssea are for 2~3 hours a day.. you'd get a 99 orb

    doesn't seem overly challenging.....

    If thats the hardest part of getting a blackbelt these days i wouldn't complain

    Again some people don't get a seal every 5- 10 mins lol. like I said in my post before I spent my time at Adi killing mobs and was lucky to get the 5-9 seals that I got.

    *edited 5-10 mins I was typing to fast lol
