Anyone try having everyone in the party all touch a lantern at the same time, then proceed with the next 2?

So... I was totally going to follow the above joke and suggest dancing too, but then I remebered that we actually already have some quests where we do have to do emotes to some npcs and the like so... has anybody tried that? Not dancing at Batraal, mind you, but I don't know, maybe /think at the lanterns in the captain's quarters or something like that?
It's very silly and maybe has already been suggested, but we have been grasping at straws for a while here. -

Last night we counted the number of smaller circles within each large blue circle, found that there is never a "set" that is greater than 8, set ourselves up to all stand on them at exactly the same moment.
Nothing...
Here are our counts:

Killing everything didnt work so maybe its kill all of something and none of another. -
07-31-2011, 03:17 AMDoctorMogWe tried all combinations except killing ghosts only - and killing hyppocerfs only.Quote:

The small circles tell you the optimum number of PT members which should stand inside the circle to open it the fastest. Thefewer there are within a circle, the slower it opens. I don't think they open faster if you place more people in a blue circle that it has smaller circles within. Does that makes sense?
No room has more then 8 smaller circles. Either it's one big circle with 8 smaller circles or it is like 2+2+4 = 8. This way you can divide your group and tell each member which circle to enter so they open at almost the same time. -

Has anyone not cancelled out of the cutscenes for a full successful run?
-
07-31-2011, 08:36 AMViridiana
Question. Do ya'll happen to know what you did to activate each of the other chests, or is it more or less all-or-nothing?
-
07-31-2011, 08:45 AMDoctorMog
I just confirmed that killing the final boss in under 30 minutes does not pop it.
/sigh -

No, we didn't try any job composition runs.
-
07-31-2011, 09:00 AMViridianaUnfortunately, my LS hasn't got Batraal down, so I can't test this, but maybe try /bow or /kneel? Since it's an "altar" and all. . .Quote:

Maybe, Fight Batraal, have all the mages and knights spawned, despawn all blue circles in the fight, send one person to the captain quarters and cast shock spikes in front of the lamps.
Only clues we have are:
"It appears to be some sort of magitek device designed to gather free-floating aetheric energy discharges."
"But there are rewards you can’t get just by killing the last boss. Stick to it, though, and keep searching for the key to unlocking that additional treasure! (That’s a metaphor. It’s not an actual key...)" -
07-31-2011, 09:38 AMZdenkascreenshot rly, those are what should be in the chest... if they have it then at least we know its possible atm.Quote:

so i completed totorak in under 30 and didnt get 5th chest. im assuming its under 20min run like i read earlier in this thread. has anyone done a confirmed batraal kill in under 20 mins? i read that some japanese players did a run with 38~40 but thats not really a confirmation....
-
07-31-2011, 11:28 AMTheFatHousecatYou have to wait before killing Shaula, she'll spawn two suitors, if you don't kill them before you kill her you won't get the last chest.Quote:

No dev response yet. 5th chest is a troll.

Have we had a kill confirmed with EVERYONE in the party with all 3 storyline quests finished?
-
07-31-2011, 01:03 PMBlackomegaKingofwaffles
Not sure if I'm more afraid of all the crazy theories being proved wrong or the possibility that we will never run out of crazy theories.
-
07-31-2011, 01:30 PMLumidus
How are the other chests spawned? Maybe there's a clue in that
-
07-31-2011, 01:42 PMRika
@Dr.Mog:
btw. your drops from the last 4(!) chests are not accurate.
We just got Guisarme & Bill from 2 different chests. (sadly I dont know which) -
07-31-2011, 01:50 PMSynapseYou won't get a reply on the weekend, maybe monday if this thread is on the front page.Quote:
