My LS has quite a few end game THF and when I finally picked up my Thief's Knife they pointed out it would not work in the off hand. (I was using P. Harpe/TK when they brought it up) I mostly use TK/Blau anyway, but since TH isn't somehting easily measured can anyone confirm if TK needs to be main handed to give the TH+1?

I find that hard to believe. There isn't any way to really make such a call without asking SE face to face about it.

TH is a job trait, so it's active in any slot as long as the item is equipped.

How does your LS explain the Assassin's Armlets; gloves must be worn over mainhand weapon as a sheat for it to work? Tell them to stop reading old wive's tales and urban legends.

TK is nice to have for any real thf. TK wasn't meant for everyone and I still think it shouldn't be, I am not hating I'm just stating the facts. Any ubber player would say the same. I guess somewhere down the road SE will gimp TH3 like they did with TH2 and come out with another item for TH5. Why? Too many thieves hold TH3 and its nice for anyone to have a better chance for drops in any endgame and we all kniw SE isn't that nice.

Version Update Info

Sozu is now a POP NM. He is popped with the RA/EX Flickering Lantern. Pursuers in the Temple OR Trailers in the Den will drop this Lantern. My LS got a lantern to drop on 1st Trailer kill. I later soloed the Trailers as WAR/NIN. Took about 10 kills to get my drop. The ??? for Sozu pop is the same spot where he spawned prior to update. I'm unsure of the ??? timer. I would assume about 15 minutes or so. I can confirm that at the moment this Knife is a 100% drop. The Knife still has the same previous stats prior to the update and can be placed on the AH. Good Luck to all.

Sozu drop rate
# Mar 07 2007 at 11:12 AM Rating: Decent
Even though this drop rate totaly SUCKS, I think its worth it to camp it the knife is selling for 20-50 Mil on Hades. Even though hades is the worst server in my opinon this is the only thing good priced I see =)

Good luck to any who trys to camp this! may the ffxi god be with ur drop :D!

Too bad the Thief's Knife is anything but "godly." The only real use it has is helping one get into an HNMLS. Other than that, it's pretty much one gigantic placebo. And, of course, your anger is even less justified now that the update has made it so pretty much anyone can get a Thief's Knife within a matter of hours.

(By the way, THFs are the main suppliers of Mage's Ballad II, which I can guarantee you is a hell of a lot more useful than a Thief's Knife has ever been. And while it may not be quite as pricey as the knife, I can't say I've ever seen any THFs giving them away to BRDs as charity.)
Lucky?

I have gotten this twice alrdy takes alot of dedication and camping one time I spent 7 days and got a drop then another took weeks working on third on now
This is hardest item to obtain in the game

I dont understand how anyone can be under 0/100 its simply beyond my comprehension, i am 0/140 and and i dont see how it could actually drop. How people are 0/300 then others are 1/1 is just wrong and sick of se's part, they should have never made its drop rate so horrid. I know dozens of people who have got it and sold and since im the only one who wouldnt sell it i never get it its incredible. Buying it isnt an option for any normal person and camping it is basicly saying goodbye to your real life for a chance at knife or killing nm knowing it wont drop. Dont waste your time people this guys saying 1/30 are one out of a hundred or a thousand who actually gets the knife.
For me the nightmare is over

after spending several months off and on and practically living in that damn hell infested temple...

I FINNALY GOT IT^^ 1/38

lol when it droped i imediatly equiped it to answer the question on everyone's mind that was present. then just sat there for a good 10-15 mins stunned... lol
kept waiting for that lot to outbid me lol... see last post for more on that lol ;;

but getting that claim i was incredibly lucky. there were 6 others in that room 2 of which were RMT popped right next to me just out of my sight T.T i heard the sound of spells going off then the suddenly stopped (guessing everyone there fell victum to the claiming nerf) i had thought for sure it was claimed but when i turned around the lil #$%$ was standing there staring at me unclaimed!!! i started spamming my claim macro and got it lol. he went out of his way to make the fight as agrovating as possible lol everytime i got near 100tp he would do light of penence lol.

finally glad to join the TH4 club^^ or TH2+2 w/e pl call it these days lol

to those that are camping dont give up your day will come and the more you kill the more you apreciate it when you finally get the drop:)
Thief's knife 1/4
# Dec 14 2006 at 5:08 AM Rating: Decent
1/4 on this knife. First claim on him was while GS are using that small room as their home, now SE banned MOST of them, had the chance to camp him on my own.

But my thf can't use it yet lol. I will keep this knife though.

Good luck.

Sozu Rogberry: 1/2

Sozu Rogberry: 1/2


First time I got kill was when a MNK wiped to Sozu. He had Sozu at 1% HP. When he was defeated, Sozu's name went yellow, and I finished him with 1 hit. No drop. I don't know if that really counts. If not, I'd be 1/1


Then it happened. I was camping and all the gil sellers in the room disappeared. This was the big RMT banning on 11/24. At that instant, the 9.5k RMT were banned. I was alone in the room for the 1'st time since I started camping Sozu 20 or so hours before. Sozu popped moments later, I got the claim, the knife dropped. 2'nd kill ever. Killed as Lv74 THF/Lv37 NIN. Camped Sozu solo and killed solo. Camped Sozu solo for 21 straight hours up until it dropped. Never camped Sozu before those 21 hours of camping. I killed every placeholder right away as soon as they popped during those 21 hours. Noone but me ever bothered to kill any of the placeholders. Saw Sozu pop 6 times during those 21 hours. Got no claims for any of Sozu's pops. Only times I got a claim on Sozu was when the MNK wiped with Sozu at 1% HP and the 1'st Sozu pop just after the RMT bannings 2 hours later.


I must be one of the lucky ones. I told my LS, in which they flipped. The whole time I was camping Sozu, my LS told me I had no chance at getting the knife. All the THF in my LS were furious when I told them. They all camped Sozu for months before they got theirs. What makes it more unbelievable is that none of them had to compete for RMT either. When they each got their knife, RMT hadn't knew about Sozu yet, so their chances were much, much greater for obtaining a knife.

# Nov 21 2006 at 10:47 AM Rating: Default
0\120 and still triying.. Anyone thinking of camping this dont do it. Once you start you cant stop you get addicted to camping until you see knife drop wich theres a 99% chance of not happening. If i had farmed all this time i would have much more gil than what the knifes worth now and would be done with this. If you camp this get ready for it to mess up your RL and never seeing any reward for your efforts.
I will but this from you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

IMO drops like this should be rare/ex. This is just asking for gil sellers, and get rich quick schemers.

im doin a lil poll here. witch would you consider to be worse:

1: 0/150 on Sozu Rogberry

2: Seeing it in the treasure pool twice and loseing lot both times.

well im pretty sure that any and every force possible is preventing me from obtaining this dagger. im not 0/150 although ive hear quite a few pl are. rather im 0/33 seeing it drop twice and losing lot. X.X

i guess i really cant complain to much though i did manage to get Assasin's Armlets. wich i figured i would nvr get lol;; but had i won the lot on the first knife i would have been 1/1. that drop was a bad desision on my part me and a rdm had been camping this guy for some odd 8 hours or more. it was my first time there and i was lvl 70. this rdm was camping against me. but after awhile for what ever reason we teamed up. the nm pops and i get claim i resisted the urge to kick him from pt since he wasnt in the room when it poped but i didnt lol. we had agreed to cast lots if it dropped of course niether of use was actually expecting to see it drop. long story short it dropped he won. i had no hard feelings after all i arranged the agreement. just a case of bad judgment on my part.

then on 9/22/06 i was farming the area (i had givin up any hope that i could claim solo RMT literally nvr leave there X.X) and i got talking to a thf that was in one of my ls's and he needed to break lantent on the dagger of trials so he offers to help me farm. at some point we started camping the nm and we ended up getting claim thf75/bst 37 and him thf 75/nin 37 and we got the drop and he won lot. needless to say i felt a lil sick losing lot for the second time lol. so im now 0/33. but on a bright note ill have x2 th-3 trying to get that knife ..... again and maybe this time i can have it lol T.T

also i been working on some theories they could be complete BS for all i know so save the flames plz. i really cannot prove any of what im about to say just some things ive been trying, and or paterns ive been trying to figure out.

until today i thought it might very well be possibility that knife would only drop if a weather effect was in place durring kill. of course i proved this wronge today.

i also had a thought about how/and or if CHR affected drops. when the knife droped today i was 75thf/37bst wearing assasin's guantlets <wich also have chr+5 on them> and assassin's feet wich also has +5 chr and i ate tuna sushi wich adds about another 5 chr.

the only reason i brought that up at all was ive read some several forums and heard rumors about trump crown with is rumored to have TH+ on it. i personally dont think it does however i do believe that chr may play a small factor when getting drops.

then again could have been my gloves finally working /shrug just something to think about or maybe try out.

good luck and happy hunting if your on RAMUH might see you there ^.~
