MP Drain?
# Jan 22 2005 at 4:34 PM Rating: Decent
Hey, I was just wondering if the MP Drain was only when you throw it or do you just have to have this item in the ranged spot? Like, will it drain MP when it's just in the ranged box?

well if your only a lvl 31 rdm, you won't be able to kill it even if you get it. Its got about 2500 hp. Takes me a while to kill it as a 55 pld. Wait till your around lvl 41 with refresh and you could kill it. Don't expect to get the Talthum very often tho im 3/17 i think.
woah

I must have got really lucky on this. I know because earlier I'd had the hardest time (before the patch) Gilsellers were all over the place and I only got it 4 times and not one dropped. I gave up for the longest time because I was waiting around an hour and then it would get snatched by a 50drg/25thf that I'm pretty sure was a gilseller. I don't really care much that someone got it but the fact that all my work was in vein. So then recently I tried my luck and noticed that none of the people I thought were gilsellers were there. Got the morion almost instantly but no drop. Tried two more times and got it on my third try. Pretty nice considering the spawn time was a lot lower seemed like 25 mins now instead of the usual hour. So I helped a JP ranger that was leveling while I waited. They did the (Thank You) and I said ^_^. So helped them level while I waited. Over all now that the gilsellers are gone it was a lot more fun.

Also about the spawn points. They've been moved recently but still in the relative area. If you see a lot of worms nearby you should eventually see a ??? nearby. Be patient though. Recomend the one area near the exit to eastern Altepa Desert as it's usually not camped as much. Good luck getting this.

Macro
# Nov 24 2004 at 5:10 PM Rating: Decent
Well, you could just stick into your macro an equip command that automatically makes sure your bow and arrows are on every time you use it.
/equip Range "name of bow"
/equip Ammo "name of arrow"

LMAO, I did the same sh** 2 days ago. Worst thing is that I actually highlighted ability, went to ranged attack, and then press X. As soon as I press X my first reaction . . . . . "Oh Fu**!"

I ready an entire thread somewhere on this topic and thought I had it down on "How not to throw this thing by accidnet"

Did I say "Thought" ;^;

Before this thread I would unequip it and leave it in mog if not Xping, but as redmage 46 I get party invites all the time and wouldnt have it with me when needed sometimes.

So I put /ra "bow" in my solo pulling macro.
Seemed to work. So next outing I took "My precious" with me. Still not sure what happend. I hit pull macro and nothing on first attempt. Figured I moved you know. I hit it again and instead of the normal visual of plucking the bow string I see my elvann croutch and "OMG" throw something.
Darn thing hit for 30+ damage far below my 180+ on TWTBW. I look and no arrows equiped with the bow. Search through inventory and "NOOOOOOOO. Semgol lost His Precious" Cost me two days farming to buy another one. Think Im leaving it in the mog again from now on. SUCKS but now LMAO.

Overcamped

This item has become overcamped on Valefor, reportedly by gil sellers. The price was around 30k for the longest time, but is now 50k. I actually got mine from the NM itself. I'm considering selling it now that the price has gone up. It's not really all that great of an item, and I'd rather have the money for other things. (Wind Staff, Earth Staff, Morion Earring, Wizard's Earring, misc scrolls)

On Shiva this thing is crazy overcamped lately. The price has gone from 30k to 65k ^^

One guy had the dirtiest camping trick I've ever seen. I was standing in an empty room thrilled to be alone with at least 2 of the spawn points. Less than 20 seconds before the pop he relogged in... I noticed him at the same time he snagged the ???.. I wasn't even worried about speed since I was alone. he killed it and immediately logged out. I felt especially stupid since I'd been thoughtful enough to clear away all the other worms that might link on.

on Unicorn server me and my freidn do this weekly, its a fun NM to hunt but its heavily camped, theere are 2 peeps all the time besides us..two lvl 50's wrer lvl 50 too but if u do a search all then one of there names there always there, there not bots because they have talked to use b4 but they are chuinese so i see ni haio and crap, but we sometimes beat them but they are very fast
RE: fun but too hunted
# Dec 03 2004 at 11:49 AM Rating: Decent
Just FYI the JP and some other foriegners have the ability to voke 10x a second. basically it's like hitting ur voke macro 10x in a sec but no person can actually do that so they have it programmed into their code.

questions and answers
# Sep 11 2004 at 3:36 PM Rating: Decent
i first would like to ask that is this a guaranteed drop? if so i know that you give a iron ore to a certain spot in Korroloka. no i dont think its not something u literally throw but if you look at the effects then you see why its so much and that people use it for its effects

RE: questions and answers

To clarify some of your questions / answers:

No, the drop is not guaranteed. It's not the rarest drop in the world, but not 100%.

You do in fact spawn it by trading an iron ore to one of the ??? spots near its various spawns (the ??? moves around)

You absolutely DO NOT throw this. The reason it is in high demand is that it provides a + to INT (and small MP boost, but that's not as important) in a slot that would otherwise be "wasted" in terms of stats. BLMs love this talthum for that reason. Incidentally, the MP drain is only activated when you throw it (which you don't do).

What is this thing anyway? Something I can use once and throw at an enemy -- or something that will enhance my stats only?

A little confused.
RE: What is this thing?
# Dec 03 2004 at 11:57 AM Rating: Decent
it can be thrown but once u throw it's gone forever and u have to find another >.< or if ur a rdm or blm or hell nething that actually needs the damned thing u won't be throwing it ne way (and yes that means that RDM's are crappy pullers cuz they need mp) hell u won't even equip a ranged item because itll be a waste of money for a mage. but ne way the only reason to have this item is for the MP +3 and INT +1. Just don't throw the damned thing or you'll be kicking urself in the *** later.
30 mnk?
# Aug 31 2004 at 2:04 PM Rating: Decent
I was trying to camp it to for my drk.
But i'm wondering, can a 30 mnk, with sub war beat the smack out of this thing???????
I sure hope so, cause one piece sells for 35K on phoenix... So im going to camp it and make a lot of money by selling them, or is this a bad idea? please respond quick

No, this is a lvl 30 NM so it is tuff already. Plus, there are usually 5-7 other worms around the spawn point and they all link. You will get owned.
It's worth it..
# Aug 15 2004 at 1:02 PM Rating: Decent
I spent 45k on this thing, and I'm glad I did. It's a slot I'm never going to use, and I won't look stupid with it in my inventory all the way up to 60 :P Now Morion's Earrings.. Those little devils cost 100k on my server. After Dispel/this/Holy Phial.. I couldn't afford them ; ;
IT STACKS TO 12
# Aug 12 2004 at 2:15 PM Rating: Decent
Just to clear things up, this thing stacks to TWELVE not 99. I've camped this thing many times and i know. I've also seen it on the AH for 12.

EDIT: pressed enter to early ;p

# Aug 04 2004 at 1:16 PM Rating: Default
how much does this item cost at the AH?
RE: cost?
# Aug 09 2004 at 10:20 PM Rating: Decent
Around 20k each on Caitsith. Not really worth it for MP+3 and INT+1.

But it's still a good thing for any BLM, since we aren't using the Ammo slot anyway. I'm 0/3 on the worm. :(
RE: cost?
# Dec 03 2004 at 12:02 PM Rating: Decent
not worth it? of course it's worth it, omg y wouldnt u want one, it goes into a slot that u wouldnt use otherwise and gives + to MP & INT.

its not worth it for the risk now that the mons flees in fight 90k and u accidently throw it maybe people who buy gil or are greedy and have millions will but ....no.. you should be slapped if u pay more then 20k for it sorry the risk out weighs the need

# Jul 15 2004 at 1:58 AM Rating: Decent
ok enough of this the reason someone would sell a stack is because you can make earrings out of these they are not to be thrown but sense it is a ammo im and like a dart they have to make it appear like a throwing item
good as i thought?

Wow, well after reading this i understand that it is not a good an item as i have been told, obviously not worth 40k, i was planning on using it for my DRK for the mp drain effect, but now i know that the ability only works when you throw it i must decline. Allthough this can be great for BLM's who have some money to spend, the extra INT and minor MP points do assist in some way. Allthough i would expect BLM's to be out of money by 25 because of various items such as Black magic scroll's.

It's good if you can get it yourself, but I would save your money rather than buying it. As a DRK, you'd probably have to be about lvl 39+ to solo it.
Damn Morion
# Apr 21 2004 at 7:58 PM Rating: Decent
After finding out how easy it was to find/kill this nm, i decided to test out with TH2. With one person camping at 2/6 spots, and me using flee to get between the two others, i killed the worm 7/8 times in about 2-3 hours. 7 Times, lots of copper ores, tin ores, 1 dark steel, 2 iron. No Morion Tathlum. I lose the last one to a japanese beastmaster/whm, he gets the drop. Ahem...i was cursing TH2 so much my ls told me to shut up. Seriously, ***** the worm, Morion Tathlum is only 40-45k at Garuda Server, mining is faster at this rate.
