Vana'diel Bestiary: Stinging Sophie  

sophie is on level 2 of zeghan hill. i was killing bees for beehive chips and i saw her twice within 80 minutes. the first time i killed her i got a stinger.

just remember, fight lots and lots of bees on level 2 of zeghan hill.

Jesus, is it hypocrisy to be a complainer complaining about other complaints? Stay on topic, what the hell good comes from saying "stop complaining you smacktard!" or something to that effect, this gives nothing positive to the community, which is what these comments are for. This is a support area, not a forum... take your personal comments to a forum, I stand behind those who voice opinions there, but I want to smack the ones who post them here.

And to the site's owners: you could use an admin to trim these comments down, I suppose I could volunteer if I weren't so apathetic

Japanese this, Japanese that... get over u cry babies. u make us americans look like a wuss. pathetic...

LoL...this is a joke. No-drop system for high levels who camp low level NM's? Thats such a bull ???king cra-p! We all have to make a living don't we? And I bet the time you all get to those high levels (40+)...you would STILL be camping for lower level NMs...why? Because they are easier to kill than some level 40+ NM's! And oh...by the way...doesn't matter which NMs your fighting...there will always be some high level ***(s) camping for it...so get used it and stop complaining!

A simple answer to your problems. Level up.

I've learned all sorts of ways to make money, since I'm nice to most of the people I meet, and they'll let me know things. I'm new to the game (been playing for about a week. 12 war, 7 whm) and I've now made more money than some people that have helped me. I mean... all their money, put together, that they've ever gotten. It just takes time, patience, and some good listening. I'm wearing full scale, with the exception of head and hands, which are better anyways.

As thanks, I bought one of them a fishing tunic, since she's a fisher. I started carpentry, and gave another one a workbench, and promised him a maple table when I get it.

So... find new ways to get what you want, if your original plan fails. I'm a lvl 12, and still have 10,000 gil left over from what I was able to horde together. I was up to 36,000 gil, at my high point. Not like I could use a 300k item anyways. By the time I can use that item, I'll probably be able to kill it myself.

instead of discussing camps or no camps, or posting flames and rants, let try something helpful. I lvl up all my subjobs on this hill. I have seen sophie twice and that was in the the morning around 4:00 and also 7:20 on the game clock. Anyone know if she is on a set timer? I don't think killing an amount of wasps has anything to do with it for I have killed thousands of wasps here to lvl up my alchemy. Also she spawned in exact same spot both time. Lets try to keep quests forums to helpful advise please : ).

jeeze enough with the whiners, try dfferent ways to make money, me personaly i ride from place to place buying things then selling them at diff AH's in diff towns, for more then what i bought em for, it's cheap yes but a good way to make money, or heres an idea, try making things via the craft system, right now i have on cotton dogi cotton hachiki and sandals and guess what, i made everyone bymyself, no need for money when u can make everything i need. and if theres something rare i want it's usualy a quesable item. learn to do the quests and stop complainin about people campin when u urself are campin

heres the other issue with your ******** victory: nm spawns are usually on a timed basis. so killing a ton of enemies doesnt really ensure that it will spawn any faster. the only time when that matters is when the time for the monster comes around to spawn. the nm use the same spawn points as other enemies, so if there are enemies still around that have used up all the spawns, then the nm will not come out til one of them dies, either by fighting or naturally.

a better idea would be to make critters below a certain point not huntable. so, if a critter is, say, 20 or more levels under you, you can't hunt it. only exceptions being if it is chasing someone (like some little guy running from one that agro'd to him) or when someone calls for help

this would prevent a level 50 from hunting anything below 30, and at least someone help out those less fortunate who didn't get the game until a year later

of course, i think we each should have gotten a choice as to whether we wanted to be on a server with jp's or on a new US only server ... then this problem wouldn't even be a problem ... yet.
