I doubt any of you here are serious thieves (staying thief till level 70 I mean), except maybe everdork, for one thing. Why am I saying this? Because you guys are spending SO much time trying to kill a rabbit that drops the charm so you could either brag that you have it or sell it for money. In the amount of time you spent hunting this guy, you could've gotten a LOT of Fire Crystals, Wind Crystals, Dark Crystals, etc which would've made you at least a few thousand gil.

My solution is, if you're not a thief then stop hunting the damn thing. Why? Well...for one thing, this is a RARE drop. And from what i've noticed this is VERY rare. Without a thief who doesn't have Treasure Hunter helping you, this is an insanely tough thing to do. Even if you DO have a thief with Treasure Hunter, it still won't drop right away (unless you're really lucky). If you see him on the way to somewhere (you can steer through the area and hope for the best), then sure. Go ahead and kill him. But is it really worth it to spend hours and hours hunting the rabbit to get a 300,000 item? If it is, you might as well do the 10,000 Moat Carp quest too. You get a Lu Shangs fishing rod which sells for about the same.

Be prepared to spend hours, days, and WEEKS if you want the rabbit charm. My LS leader has killed him 16 times and has never seen the drop once. He's probably spent a good 30+ straight hours hunting it over the past week. DON'T hunt Jack if you are looking for quick cash-- it's a complete waste of time. The people who get the drop at all, much less in a few kills, are about one in a billion, quite literally literally. The Rabbit Charm is worth 300k for a reason people.

How many times do I have to run around killing the things for an hour and have some group of jerks run up and get it in 5 minutes? I seriously begin to think of the existance of a set timer spawn. Either way, it's depressing as anything.

Spent an hour or two hunting for him on my way to the dunes. First time he spawned in mid G-9 but was grabbed by a RDM also hunting for him. Several players on chocobos watching the fight. Looked in H-9 the next time, but it was being camped by two japanese players so I gave up. Was passing through G-9 again last night scanning mobs, did a double take when I saw Jack, and rushed to engage him. Didn't get the drop, but at least I got to fight him. :)

Yep, I hunted him for 2-3 hours for 3 days straight, killing everything in H-9 on sight. Overall I found it quite rewarding as the Forest Hares, and Ding Bats in the area drop Rabbit Hides, and Bat Wings, both of which sell in stacks at the AH for 1200+ Gil. The Orcs and Goblins also give nice Gil drops.

Anyway, after about 3 days, I was just running through that area into La Thiene, and saw the little ******* sitting there. I killed him easily, stealing a San d'Oria Carrot, but getting no item from the kill. He spawned in the upper most right corner of the H-9 square, if that's any help. Good hunting!

To get this rabbit to spawn you are meant to kill the Forest hares that spawn in the area shown on the map, however he is a rare spawn and you could literally spend days trying to get him to spawn. Also he drops the rabbit charm very rarely.
