Is everyone afraid of Eldieme Necropolis?Follow

I doubt it, but it seems no one ever wants to go there to skill up and help me get a coffer key. I was lucky enough to get a skill up party in there yesterday but a key didn't drop, and 3 other's were looking too.

Id really like to just get in and get out and have that be the end of it. I have a 55 Thf, who will definatly and make the horrible drop rate hopefully a little better.

I was wondering if there are any kind souls out there high enough to come and help without the fear of dying. I really wanna get this part of my AF complete.

Ill pay if you want, I'm poor but I will farm my butt off to pay you back if that's what you will require. ; ;

Thanks

Just /tell Nightspark in game...I'll prolly be on around 7 or 8pm eastern. ^^

Yes, yes I am. And Guesen Mines too(Even though I don't get any arrgo there).

It certainly used to be scary, but now, at 70, I no longer fear the place.

If I am available, I can try to help, though I'm rather a noob when it comes to knowing coffer spawn locations (or even keydroppers) there, since I did spend so much of my time thusfar avoiding the place.

Oh, Nightspark, I was in the Coffer PT with you yesterday too. After you left, me, Keebs and Telemachus killed Tomb Mages and Warriors for a Coffer Key... got nothing. We even had that Coffer right beside us until it Despawned much later. If you get help for this Coffer Nightspark, please let me tag along. I'll be willing to help pay for help as well. Thanks mon.

What's so scary about this place?

/em strolls around.

/huh.

LOL JK if you need any help throw a /tell and bug me. Most likely I'll just be trading cornettes for Windurst fame...or on my way to...or something like that. Just make sure everyone's good for sneak and inivisble...not sure what does dogs and skeles aggro to I forgot...

Im really not affraid, I strolled there as a 44BRD.... Laughing of a level 56ish SAM who was afraid to go in. Id help if one of my steps without sneak wouldnt cause Hell to stumble upon us.

See, the thing that makes Eldieme so hard is that the mobs are not sleepable. In any other coffer key location the mobs can be slept fairly easily, but Eldieme is full of undead, so you can't sleep them. Furthermore, they have AoE drain so the more people you have, the more HP they drain, thus making them harder to kill.

I still hate Eldieme for what it put me through to get my gloves. I'm fairly certain that you get aggro until you're 72, so even someone 65 can't pull without aggro from the Fallen Knights.



Huh? No one that needs a coffer key is going to get aggro from mobs in Batallia. It takes all of 5 minutes to run back to Jeuno from the Jugner zone. I can't think of any coffer key location that is any closer to Jeuno than Eldieme.

Here's a couple reasons why people hate that place:

1) Undead. They're the worst kind of mobs you can run into. They low-hp aggro from MILES, and since key/paper parties inevitably sit RIGHT on top of eachother, their AoE drain is much more annoying than it should be.

2) Hard. The Papyrus drop is INSANELY low, and drops from mobs you either A: have to run around the place to kill eficiently or B: run through beaducine glacier or whatever to get to a more reliable area to camp them. Joy. The coffer key mobs are high level, and with only a few places to camp them effectivey, you run into the "AoE drain worsened by idiot party who won't camp somplace else".

3) {Gate breech} Oh come on, this is just unfair. In an effort to make Coffer camping even MORE of a pain, they make you unable to reach the bulk of them without someone else to come with, out of the goodness of their heart, or take a long walk, or hope the moron currently at the switch isn't opening and closing them over and over just to be an ***.

Nah I just hate walking.. not saying watch out for mobs... We popped out there and saw where we were and went... **** >_<. I did D2 everyone, but kinda annoying.

I was walking around there last night no problem, trying to find that damn Chest, not the coffer, just the Chest. I'm low on cash ok, need 600k for 3 AM's (and then I'm totally up to date).
