Grind Camps

[zaviermhigo]

Now that mobs are pretty standard on sp, all that matters is they are within a level range you feel comfortable with, they give you sp you are comfortable with, and they don't do nasty tp attacks you can't survive. many of his camps were well known pre-patch 1.18. Now its a matter of preference, like i'd rather not go to the grass raptor camp, cause finding a full 8 party of 40s to go there, plus there fire is so lame. I'll go kill gobs at that same level range now, and I'll even tell people where they are, they are by the Maws of Toto Rak, opposite side of silent arbor, good if you have dd power. 300 sp a mob and easy to kill, good for light party. People may not like my camp, say it gives gimp sp, but I still put it out there so someone can try it. Saying these camps are lame, and I'm not going to give you my camps cause i'm a selfish b**** is just lame, gtfo.


edit: that crab camp zen is talking about is super legit, we're in the same ls, but in multiple parties we've gotten people from 11-20 in a couple hours right there at that crab camp. I won't even do guildleves at that level now its so ruined. By multiple I mean different parties, I got my archer personally from 11-20 there I think in 4 or so hours, the sp may be less than it was pre patch 1.18 but there are so many spawns there it is quite easy.

[45-50] Dezmael Darkhold (Good luck with that)! (Full PT).

It's sad, Darkhold is probably the best 45-50 SP in the game, but people are so obsessed with rewards that its R50 ONRY.

I really wish they had made an easier, 4-player Darkhold that was more accessible to people just wanting to get SP post 45 - which is now extremely tedious. They could have removed the loot entirely, I'm just tired of Ixali and Raptors.

Help us by not posting unless your gonna contribute something.

@OP my friend found this thread inspirational and decided to make a XIV Campsitarus so if we find any spots that you didn't list I will update you on it and you can check the site.

That would be me. I'm basically shooting for a Campsitarus for FFXIV. I'll have the main index done tonight, along with most of the generic design stuff. I'll start adding and linking to various pages as time permits, featuring breakdowns just like Tuufless did.

At the moment, I'm using some of the OPs list, because it vaguely looked correct. We will widdle it down and make it more exact as we move forward.

Hopefully this gets updated nicely due to this thread and others.

Rath is the only rational person left in this thread, OP made an honest effort to put forth some help. Of course he is going to turn sour when it's instantly met with ridicule. It doesn't matter if he did it with internet research or farming the mobs himself.

Stop and think before you post.

Came here thinking someone would be nice enough and good info in party camps but i guess i was wrong -.-. Anyways if someone really know 15-50 camps or w/e please send it to zenakuyamada@gmail.com.

Anyways i help out also 10-22 you could party where the NM Slippery Sykes is you would see crabs it give around 500-700sp it start getting less sp around 16+ if you have more then 3+ members. A party of 4-5 members at 10+ can get good sp but getting high level the less would give more SP you should be getting around 200-300+sp around 18+ so good sp too about 22 if you have 2 people around getting to 18+

Zen, these crabs are rank 25-29 w/ high defense. How long does it take to kill one with 4 members <R16?

i agree with you.. i know how you feel I am at that point where even though it was my second time at raptors... I felt it was tedious.

30-36: Blind Efts @ Mistbeard Cove (light party... or full party at lower levels)
They give about 300+ SP per kill and die fast. Sleep is important in this room. The spawn rate is a little erratic, ranging from insanely fast to having 1- or 2-minute pauses between bouts of pops. My LS thinks it has something to do with how fast you kill them, but we can't explain why you get a few fast pops, a short lull, a lot of fast pops, another lull, etc. During a lull, we hit the tunnels for some quick SP (puddings, eyes, and spiders).

Btw, I suggest reorganizing your list by breaking it into categories by group size (solo, duo/trio, light party, & full party), then sort by level.
