killed it like 15 times. droped 5 times. seen him in many places but alway along the wall from the tower to the end of the river. somtimes like 10sec more down the street. a method that works: kill it and be back in 1:30 kill crawler and he WILL pop from 2:05 to 2:15. if you stay after TOD and kill crawler you can down his respawntime to like 1:10 ... fastest time i ever got was like 50min.
if you know that and TOD you dont have to stay long... like 30min and you got an almost granted pop.

ive seen him like 12-14 times near the road. 1 time at the end of the river and 1 time in the middel of the way done the river. many ppl are keep telling me they saw him most times at the end of the river.

never got the cape below 50% of Moon 3 drops at full moon.
and 13 of 15 pops at night... why ever.

it goes 22k in jeuno 30k in windy but sometimes up to 50...
sry to Ehrii the RNG how camped in my time and never got him ;)

someone on Odin needs a new cape ? /tell Radiokopf
its sells pretty slow

good luck

as far as what the cape has going for it, other than being literally the only cape that does anything before lvl 30ish for a mage, I heard it also desynths into a ton of silk, like, 4 stacks or something

I might have missed something in the comments, here, but I never have heard what this cape has going for it.

Someone fill me in, if you please.

Thank You in advance,

How many capes can you get?
# Jan 02 2007 at 10:11 PM Rating: Decent
I read somewhere that you can only have one of these at any one time. Is this true? I see that it's Rare, but not Exclusive. Can you get the drop while wearing the cape? Planning on leveling WHM and will probably be wearing this cape while in Spiny's area. Don't want to wast my time farming him if I'm not gonna get the drop ya know?

0/12 on her as a 26 WHM/13 BLM so I decided to give up and do something more productive like level THF, so I end up dying with THF :P and having to HP to Jeuno. One of my LS friends where there and we were talking about a new weapon for her so I told her to go with a Yew Wand +1..none up for sale so I suggested we go to Windy so I ended up switching back to my WHM. When we hit East Sarbaruta a thought lingered in the back of my mind to look for her (Spiny) but dismissed it so I end up spotting it so of course I fought it anyway lol long story short(er) wasn't look for her this time and end up finally getting the drop (Waning Gibbous 77% Windsday) and big shoutout to my good luck charm Joyla from Diablos! :)

Can't say I've put the most time in on Spipy, but I've killed him 10 or so times with no drop...

Monday night ci. 12:30a ET 10/16/06
New Moon 10% ci. 02:00

Had been harvesting in West Saruta: Red moko grass, Saruta cotton, etc and meanwhile also killing Giant Bees for chips, and Crawlers for threads (and pick-pocketing Mandragoras). Ran out of sickles and still needed a couple more threads to complete a stack. Decided to head to East Saruta and kill Crawlers there and hunt the elusive beast Spipy until I got my stack. Killed one Crawler and saw him. No one around. Had 16 THF/WAR. Used SA and 2hr. Had time for 2 weapons skills (had Beestinger so used Gust Slash). Whipped his butt (as usual), except this time....MIST SILK CAPE! WOOOHOOOT! Angelboo saw me and applauded. Unfortunately, THF could not don the cape for her to see. Oh yeah, he also dropped the last 2 threads for my stack. What a night!

Must say also though, that although they had been going for 150k at Bastok AH, saw that they are only 60k in Jeuno. Oh well. I plan on wearing the thing anyway, but...

After two years of loking for this greedy little crawler I was about to give up. Oh I have got him many times but never got the drop.

Tonight I was running around East Saru farming Yag feathers, bird feathers and insect wings when I thought I would take a chance and pull up widescan, after all what could it hurt. I pulled up wide scan and flipped through the list and there he was on my widescan list, Spiny Spipi (or Stingy Spipi as we call him.) I locked widescan on the little bugger and high tailed it to where he was figuring he would be taken but to my suprise there he sat in all his glory, unclaimed.

I figured well the silk drop would be good as he gives me 2 spools each time but the chance of getting the cape would be zero since I was on BST75/NIN37 and it was not foggy out (that part is just a rumor, it does not have to be foggy out nor do you have to be in a low level job, to get the drop.)

I took off both my swords and started punching him, figured this would be a slow process of taking him out with hand-to-hand, but I wanted to test another rumor I have been told. (next Spiny Spipi rumor kill him slowly and you will get drop.) Mind you BST has no hand-to-hand but Ninja does and well since I used to play Monk in the past my hand-to-hand was pretty high.

I didn't count the number of hits nor did I track the damage but it was a short time and Spiny Spipi was down. I kind of had my eyes closed when he dropped to the ground and the items dropped into my bag.

I looked up at the screen and could not believe my eyes, there in my bag dropped one spool of silk thread and the Mist Silk Cape. I just stared at the screen then slapped that puppy up in my bazzar at max price.

I still cannot believe the luck I had tonight and well, I hope I was able to dispell some of the 'rumors' that are out there for Spiny Spipi.
so now i get it

Came across this NM unexpectedly the first time on Bahamut with a friend while traveling back to Windurst from somewhere, forgot where. A taru died next to it, friend, I think 30WAR and I, at the time, 23? THF killed it with no trouble at all, rather quick too. 1/1 drop on Bahamut. My friend boasted in /sh, and I got flamed by the taru's ls mates for it, she didn't. >> << Pfft.

0/2 on Asura though. :(
Placeholders
# Apr 13 2006 at 11:20 PM Rating: Decent
Spiny only has three place holders.

Using widescan it'll pop between four bees, and two gobs.

There's two sets of this and it's the second set.

It spawns approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes.

5 minute spawn times for placeholders.

Killed him about 30 minutes ago, did it with a lvl 13 thf, had to use 2 hour and got poisoned with about 75 hp left, finally killed it with 19 hp left and still poisoned, the spiny got his revenge by killing me with poison. Also forgot to set hp in windy so had to travel all the way back to windy :( but I did get the cape which currently selling for 150k on Pandemonium.
Lucky drop

I was heading over to the East tower in East Saub. Found this NM with no one else around. Kill this with 2 hits (73 thf with SA) and got drop.

I checked price and its now 200k. 2/2 on drop, I still have my other cape but in my mule.
This is getting expensive... why?
# Jan 13 2006 at 12:21 PM Rating: Decent
So I'm planning on starting WHM soon and I wanted to pick up one of these. To my dismay, they are going for 200-250k in Jeuno, and bids of 100k in other cities failed, even though that's what the price history says it was going for like a week ago. *coughgilsellerscough* I don't particularly feel like paying that much money for MND+1, but there are no other good back pieces for WHM at low levels, so I guess I'm stuck. But after reading the posts on the NM, I'm going to camp it, because I want the Pilgrim's Wand too and will be in the area anyway. Time to buy my 50 THF roommate a pizza and ask him for a favor...

This should be better

Considering it is the Windy equivilant of the Rabbit Charm and Leaping Boots, SE could sure have done better making this item.

After camping Spini for a few hours on a couple of days i finally get mt cape.

The First 4 times I fought him i was 50RDM/25THF. Killed him 4 times (obviously lol) yet much to my dismay, no drop. Cue much ranting and me giving up on the cape.
A few weeks later i decided to finally level bst so i can do a few bcnms when who do I spy but my old nemisis Spini wandering near the river, "Right" i think, "You're toast {bio}tch". I grab a mandy and set it to work and watch it quickly die. I grab a bee to dd (O.o), start beating it with my axe, pop a coloured egg an a apple au lait and it was on! Walked away with 66 hp 0 mp 1 silk and my cape^^ All this as a 12BST/6WHM!

I dont know whether this is true or not but this has lead me to believe that your more likely to get drop if the mob is a challenge, not just farm fodder.

Just my 2 pence (I'm english).

Lol i think i have the same luck with NM's, only it's FINDING them that's my problem. I have camped Spiny on about ten seperate occastions, probably close to 15 hours total, and have fought him once as 33RDM/16THF, and I didn't get the drop. =/ Oh well, it's 80k on Siren and I need the money, not to mention it's just a good area to farm silks and beehive chips, so I'm not going to give up.
Geez...

was a total beginner for camping spiny spipi. was farming crawlers and bees to waste time. i had just about given up hope, having noticed no less than 4 other people camping spiny when lo and behold i come across it just standing there, i quickly tag it and cast fire to start things off and hear someone yell "Nooooooooooooooooo" ;-) mages, remember to tag with dia or poison, melees, hit with ranged as soon as you can, or us mages will take it from you ;-)

ps: Got the drop! ^___^
