i heard he spawns by killing the leach king 3x or wait 24-36 hours real life time. thats just what i heard so... also about 800 botters were banned from FFXI or just cant play for a long time, so ups the chances of u getting it a little more. but Blowyouup on the seraph server sold like 7 peacock charms. and i kinda knew him when i was a lvl 20 or so, so he should know me lol. but i think hes a gil seller now.

Secret.. sheee..
It spawns when moon cycle is at the lowest of the 3/4 moon at the time when day of the week is between light and dark. Then.. when real life moon turns red, turn your head to the left and give a good cough. At this point, game moon will turn blue. With your character(pref. Galks) run around in circles 3 time in counter clockwise direction.

By these time Argus will have spawned but claimed by some bot.

But seriously... no one wants to camp this thing for obvious reasons. Thats why this is such a good and expensive item. Put some work in to it and find them out yourself.

You forgot to take three steps back and jump rope 395 1/2 times with your feet tied together and drink a glass of orange juice mixed with chocolate milk and coffee then pull out your full auto desert eagle and write "Hello my name is ________" on the wall to your right 5 feet above the ground, then the wall should crumble and a chicken will come out. Fry it and eat it and offer the bones to the altar and he should THEN spawn after 3 weeks pass.

gotta keep up with the times dude!!! in a recent patch they added this as a drop in an uncapped BCNM, so only 70+ have a chance at getting it that way.

although i really don't agree with SE's decision to do that. I mean if you're 70+ you already have the means of getting this thing... seriously like 1 or 2 god drops and bam! there you have it.
20k for me!!!!!!!
# Feb 28 2005 at 12:27 AM Rating: Decent
im 2/8 been camping this thing for 4 months but the gil is worth it.

#REDACTED, Posted: Feb 27 2005 at 10:54 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) its just so funny, there r more bots out there than u know it, and all these people think they know how a bot operates, well good luck and keep thnking yall ca nbeat us ;)
#REDACTED, Posted: Feb 26 2005 at 11:55 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Hello guys, time to fight back! Tired of damn botters? Well guess who also has a bot! After much research and work i have a bot. A very complex one indeed. Ill explain it to an extent. It only vokes the mob u WANT. So it only gets Argus! It can auto fight, auto heal, auto TP attack, and much more. It basically spams tab until it sees Argus, then vokes/chi blasts it. This bot also has features for wide range NMs to such as Hoo Mjuu. I have mad2mil+ with this bot and my main being ONLY lv24THF! But i plan to move servers soon cuz im tired of asuras inflation. So if u have a server and could get me a WP, and donate enough gil to convince me to come i would be glad to come and email u bot in zip file and help u set it up. Post replies here(i dont want email spam) thank you.

Why would someone invite, much less PAY a botter to come to their server? have you NOT read the posts about peacock charm or argus? every other one is a coplaint about bots!!!

# Feb 22 2005 at 7:54 AM Rating: Default
There is not one item in this game that can't almost have sub for. Personally it will be a cold day in hell before i spend over 1 mil on any armor or item. I refuse to be the victim of gil sellers, and high crafting over charge. Rangers are already poor as it is from needing to do woodcraft for arrows. It amazes me that everyone sets such high bars on what equipment you "have" to have. Well if you want a good rng to benefit yourself in exp in parties, I know it will never happen, but give the most exp job in the game a break. It seems like anything rng related makes it worth 1 mil instantly. Guess I'm just saying this over pricing crap has to end, whos to say your armor or item for your job won't be the next 1 mil "have to have" thing. One more thing, you have to feel bad for new players, i went to lvl bst out of bordom, and saw lvl 1 armor was 1k a armor piece. lol How is a lvl 1 newb supposed to raise 5k in the beginning?

you don't seem to really know waht yo'ure talking about. if you pick the right places to party, you really don't need good gear for a while. plus like was mentioned low levels are easy to get the money for whatever crappy gear you need. as far as RNG goes, this is sooooo luxary, you don't NEED it until you're high enough to fight gods. honestly, you just don't need it till then. nice to have? sure, but not needed. you have WAY too much other equipment with rng. acc., you don't NEED this.

Another thing... RNG's POOR from leveling woodworking. leveling woodworking 0-60 i made ****-TONS of money. and now whenever i need arrows for my rng or thf or sam, i just make my own, plus a couple stacks extra to sell and I end up making a profit on the hwole thing. And seriously if you've already raised woodworking, why not go out of your way to craft for profit. that's how a LOT of people make their gil in this game.

a few other things...
"There is not one item in this game that can't almost have sub for." WHAT DOES THAT MEAN!??!!

"i went to lvl bst out of bordom, and saw lvl 1 armor was 1k a armor piece. lol How is a lvl 1 newb supposed to raise 5k in the beginning?" BST means you already have a job at 30. if yo'ure still a newb... i hope i don't party with you.

"Well if you want a good rng to benefit yourself in exp in parties, I know it will never happen, but give the most exp job in the game a break" actaully i've never heard ANYONE except you say that peacock charm was required. almost all of the required rng gear is actually really cheap. +rng acc. rings for like 10K. a super sweet bow might be 50K. really that's not bad at all.

hmm... i dont get it.
Yes stuff cost alot due to inflation.
But stuff u sell (by farming, NM hunting, wutever) sells at a higher price.
RE: you guys are nuts

n00bs get a set of armor well the Feet Legs Hands Back, (ring, unless a true n00b) and Weapon. Also there is no lvl one back gear. Besides low level characters have it the easiest when it come to gil, get a signet and head out the door you can easily farm up 20k before your ?mark expires. The sad thing is that new people have no idea what the value of the drops are, esp fame related items. And it may be just an obsevation but almost 75% or more of the mobs engaged after level 10 are gonna have either water or earth crystals (some of the cheapest out there. whereas from level 1-10 you can kill bees the yagudo/goblins for wind and fire (some of the more used crystals) You like expenses try to level a mage class sometime. unlike the majority of melee items. A mage cant decide "well I dont need (raise2/3/ erase/phalanx/dispel/quake/ect ect) these spell anymore i think ill just resell it for an upgrade." another point i would like to make is that rng is an advanced job and thus you have already leveled some job to 30 or more, having a job of level 30 should allow you to farm reasonable amount of gil for reasonable equipment. Now when you do farm the gil or Item itself it shows you have put forth some effort into character development and that you know how to play your game. This is Most defined by the low level special items that are supierior to others in there class for many many levels to come (mist silk cape/astral rings/ charm/ hairpin/ect. ect.) These items may be low level but the upgrade for them will be far in the future, and the cost of them seems to go up as opposed to down so when you decide to upgrade you may actually make a profit reselling them. My 2 cents.

Are you kidding me? Rngs have it so easy when it comes to ranged accuracy and attack... 2 archers knives = +20 acc. Rngs start with a sniper ring equivalent ~_~. And all those cheap as$$+1 bows that give +3285729357 acc. Not to mention those 5k +1 rings that give +6-10 ranged acc. My brother has well over +40 racc, he spent no more then 150k for it. As a monk you have any idea how much I'd have to spend for that much acc? Millions and millions. The only thing you got right is the fact that arrows, and especially bullets are quite expensive.

I agree with you for the most part. Its ridiculous how much things cost. But this is not a "ranger" only item. Any melee class would kill to have this. I like ranger and like having one in a party, but you come off like your the only job who has it bad. Like a ranger has to sit in jeuno for hours and hours to find a party...haha I think not. I agree with your thoughts, but take a different approach and give up ranger being the biggest victim of gilsellers or overpriced items.

I would really like to have this item for my RNG/NIN who is gonna hit 33 very soon. Unfortunately, there is no way I will ever be able to afford it, and even if I could I wouldnt spend the money on it. Even if SE did get rid of 800 Gilsellers, I doubt I will ever get close to touching Argus. Guess I'll just stick with my faithful Ranger's Necklace. With Noct Gear +1, I can hit anything anyways. ^^

"last month i saw it sell for 60k on fairy"

I think you are thinking of a different item... this one is usually around 10,000,000 gil... and there is no "quest" for it...

you guys are gonna hate me for this but back when i was like lvl 14 some guy running through the city shouting on fairy server traded me this item for free i didnt think about the fact i would need it so i sold it for like 18k to get my kingdom tunic this item is still cheap on fairy though. but for thoses on other servers is the over a million gil worth plus 10 acc? is there anything else that gets you that kind of gain and is that still a viallable gain at higher lvls? i just wondering not being sarcastic i had assumed that there would be better gear available at higher lvls that lvl 33 gear would not be so sought after.

Lemme get this straight...

You sold a Peacock charm for 18K!????!!!!?
RE: peacock charm
# Feb 10 2005 at 2:01 PM Rating: Decent
yeah but like i said it was when i was new to the game back in like april or may of last year at the time i didnt even look at the value of the item before i sold it i just saw it was way higher lvl than i could use at the time and i really wanted the kingdom tunic (it was the best body armor for me at the time) since some one gave it to me i figured it was an easy item to get so i wasne't worried about getting it again later on. i at least got 18k for it i got it for free and didnt even quest for it, coarse the luck ******* that bought it must have jumped for joy last month i saw it sell for 60k on fairy i almost bought it then but passed on it to get my lvl appropiate gear and some meats to go do the promy holla quest i was like lvl 31 now that i see there isn't much else that gets you that kind of boost i think i'll get it next time or quest it that sounds like more fun to me specially since locating partys have been sucky lateley.

'14mill on Bahamut though, same guy/girl keep selling them.. Went from 6mill to 12-14'

That's Powdersnow. She bots that thing like a ****. She usually gets mpked every time she goes there now. I'm trying to get the charm for myself now. It's so hard though with her there. >_< I've gotten Argus once. I got it, killed it, then I hit the heal button because it took me down in the yellow. I fell asleep, bats popped, woke up dead. XD No drop. 2k exp lost for nothing. T_T
