why the same place every time?
Cause it has a frickin' dinosaur on it.
From what I've been seeing is because it has the best spawn rates
Easy pulls, plenty of mobs all of which are III/IV, 'safe spots', open area for VNMs.
Was this a question that really needed to be asked?
If so... see the first response.
no pelicans
Also fast kills, because there are many people to help out.
Do you only gather one item from each mode? No. Do you cook pasta one at a time? No. It boils down to most effective use of the limited amount of time available. People are always going to use the most productive method, look at N. Than FATEs...
so we all can film jurassic park final fantasy 14 style :D!
I just Zerg rush mobs for 2 hours. Whatever place feeds the swarm the fastest works for me. I go to Dino island because it the hive mind's currently established all you can eat buffet.
Because people are boring and unimaginative.
it's fairly simple really.
the only other real options are the cockatrice island which is rank 2 triceratops and rank 4's that spam sleep bombs all over your party, also very limited supply
the island with worms and grove guardians which is rank 2 and rank 4 mix
or the dino island which is rank 3 and rank 4 mix
it's kind of just a matter of math.
Hard mode just replaces everything with monsters one rank higher so it ends up being the best area there too
Even if there was no optimal spot to farm, chances are people would go to a certain spot anyway. Because it's easier to farm in a big group. Unless your computer is old and slow.
Best farm spot it seems. What really seems to matter is getting everyone in one area. So it's a good gathering spot.
Mostly because it's where everyone goes currently. It's just understood. Gather together and kill lots of mobs fastest. If a faster/better way comes to light you can be sure it will become known and then people will change, but right now it's just how it goes.
Having said that, the first reply to the topic is still the best one.
I feel like this spot is going to get hit by the nerf bat hard
Because you touch yourself at night.
as melee that place is so annoying, people tend to pull 2 to 4 sanuwa at the same time and pushbacks everywhere
worst thing is when the buffalo s appears on top of that =w=
It took the community all of 12 hours to make airship "exploration" boring and formulaic.
It just depends on how fast you kill them, and RNG might be a factor but I'm not sure. The problem with the caves is that it's an enclosed area and the respawn of the monsters and rather large AoEs can be the cause of a lot of deaths, better to have an open area like Dino Island.
