So this morning me and my char Agentblack went hunting down spiny spipi. Its was tough with this gil seller (name) was standing there camping as well. So i got smart. I used prism powders and had my Rdm used sneak so that taru couldnt see me. I stayed on him like a ghost until Spiny finnaly showed itself. I laughed evily as the taru started to cast Banish III seeing as my dia (with the fast cast ability) complety out casted his in speed. The taru was super pissed as I won the Mist Silk Cape that dropped from Spiny. He started to curse at me as I smiled and blisted him. And this is why gill sellers hate me :twisted:

I can't see gilsellers camping an NM like Spipi. The drop rate is terrible and the cloak is only worth 100-200k at most.

That guy is ALWAYS THERE. killing all the crawlers and Spini. I swear its like he lives in east sara. This has been going on for a good month now. Sounds like a gil seller to me <.< also ive stopped someone from killing leaping lizzy (they are always camping it as well) and the same response. they send a mean tell, and I laugh and blist them. Who cares if the hate me, I still like giving them a slap across the face.

I still use that cape as a 65 whm. i'm going to trade it in once i can use my blue cape thou. I got it off spini while i was being pled by a friend. spini had poped so my friend claims and invites me so i jump in and help kill him. he dies a second later and we get the drop and she passes it to me. I'll never forget her....now if only lizzy was this nice :cry:

Bumped into that NM once, didn't get a drop :(

That is being kinda underhanded but eh, there's a way of popping to the NM when it spawns while invis. Gilsellers tend to use it a bit, happened when was camping LumberJack :(

Most likely the guy you duped was a silk farmer.

I camped and beat Spiny as my level 12 Summoner. Carby died, I barely lived and when Spiny fell I got 12 experience points, an Earth Crystal, a spool of silk thread, and the Mist Silk Cape. I wore it for a bit then saw that it was going for 350K with the Christmas inflation so I put it on Jeuno AH and the next day I had 500K waiting for me!

As for Lizzy and Valk emperor, they're never nice enough to drop for me, then again I haven't seriously camped them in a while.

Also, it wasn't Fast Cast that on the claim, you picked a spell that had a faster casting time. He used Banish 3 because he's an idiot and he wanted to one-shot it.

I use Flash with the NM's name in the macro.

I have killed Sippi 6 - 8 times, three different characters (one a THF), two worlds. I bought my Mist Silk Cape.

maybe so keavy, but ever since I got fast cast at lvl 15 although it doest seem like it, my spells cast a bit faster. But yeah Dia is very fast already :lol:

Wow, Tsybil, what rotten luck. :o I killed Spiny once, didn't get the cape, gave up, and a year or so later just bought the cape (for that CoP level capped stuff, I think...).
