On Garuda, in the first few weeks after the change, profesional campers ran hunting guide services. So many gil to join the party, lots more for the drop. But as on other servers they are gone now, moved on to more rewarding prey.
So there are usually one or two out camping both Lizzy and the Emporer, occasionaly a LS group.
Check it out.

yup when i camped VE(nekoroth helped me out.luv ya neko =^_^=)there was a taru NIN named tengu there.i can imagin what he was saying when neko got claim and i was rushing over to kill it.lol.samething with LL,when i camped it one night there were only 2 other people there.there were a couple others,but they were probably bots so they dont count.anyway it spawns 3 times and gets claimed so i log out for the night and try again in the next day and there it is out in the open so i claim it and kill it and get the boots.lucky eh?should of heard the bragging i was doing heheheNope... maybe on a day like Sat there are 3 people camping LL but during morning weekday hours, there are no campers. When Chaos got his pin recently there was only one camper.
Too much time!? LOL Maybe you haven't noticed but you are playing FFXI! One of the most time consuming MMORPG's on the market!JediKitsune wrote:I don't see why it wouldn't be profitable for the person, and those items haven't been free... ever. You either spent too much money on them on the AH or too much time camping for the stupid thing.Ambrey wrote:I think ur mistaken cause I have yet to see it be done. Maybe players partying together or ls members teaming up to cover more ground to help with camping the Valk Emp but for paying people for an item that is free like that and isnt profitable. Think ur observations may be off.
And of course you wouldn't see it. It's not exactly something people go boasting about...

NM camping is one of the hugest wastes of time in FFXI aside from the game itself. IT's an unreliable source of income and is viciously competetive. I can spend an entire day and logout with absolutely nothing or I can do what I usually do for money: go out to Giddeus and harvest and farm beehive chips which I then make into beeswax.
