This egg serves many purposes. It can be equipped to ensure that any character will hit almost 100% of the time. The added acc on this is insane. Anybody will tell you that HP+4 while healing is a great thing to have. As for the added provoke? Do you think that a Pld/Mnk or Pld/Nin wouldn't love to have provoke? War is only a good sub for pld because of provoke. If you ever get rich enough or high enough in crafting to get one of these. Do it. For gods sake don't freaking throw it. Do you honestly want to take the chance of losing a multimillion gil item?
The ranged accuracy +100 only works when you're throwing the egg, because to use any other ranged attack you would have to unequip the egg, thus losing that +100 ranged accuracy. Also, the provoke only works when u throw the egg, so it only works once. But i do agree that it would be nice if SE gave us pld's our own provoke so we weren't forced into subbing war for exp pt's.
Well if you a Ranger/Ninja Tank w/ Utsusemi this is like 5x provoke with barrage/unlimited. I'd say it's for those who wanna abandon war just for voking lol. Not worth the risk... If you DO want this for tanking then DONT make ranged a macro...
Well idk if this is possible but if it was it would be tight....... use unlimited shot and barrage and then throw this....... can u say DMG= complete and total death..... or if they made WS for throwing items like sidewinder and slug shot...... /em uses unlimited shot..... /em uses barrage...... /em rdys throwing WS of death.... /em kills the King Behemoth lol so if anyone knows about the stacking of unlimited shot and barrage being possible plz correct me!
On Ramuh, only a few of these have sold, So you are able to see all of them, well, the second one sold was sold to them selvs for 99,999,999 gil, i have heard this person has like 99,999,999 gil on 6 charecters in total! I just thaught that that was just a scary little thing i saw 2 nights ago...
I've concluded, and therefor there is no reason to read bellow
1 - The egg is for Ranger - Unlimited Shot / Barrage kinda thing if its possible to combine them..
This is thrown, but Unlimited shot means it does not get used up
2 - The "provoke" effect, when used at level 75 (level 75 to equip) is not going to make a MAJOR impact on hate, especially if your Paladin is doing its good job
3 - This is used on HNM, your not going to use this (at least very often) in an exp PT at level 75
4 - It's used to show off,..
Rangerlv75 : Hey noob, watch this Ranger uses unlimited shot. Ranger hits the rarab for 2920 damage! The rarab is defeated!
This egg is for doing that last bit of damage needed to take out a large mob with unlimited shot + barrage. You absolutely have to use unlimited shot because this egg is a lvl 100 goldsmithing craft that sells for about 2 million on siren.
Im sorry, but this seems like a very silly question... Given how rare this item is and how powerful, you do not want to throw it at all. I have seen lots of people with happy eggs, they just put them in the ammo slot to get the effect (so thay can equip it). I feel sorry for the person that throws this egg at all, im sure they would be very sad. If i am wrong and have somehow missed something which makes me look silly please correct, thanks. ^.^
i read about 50 threads below talking about a rng using unlimited shot with this, since when is a ranger getting hate a good thing? yea, it might be good if you like to die, other than that it would be horrible for a ranger.
lol accuracy? and how is this gonna help out ur RngAcc.....lets see u equip this, and then u cant equip a REAL ranged weapon sooooo yeah, the RngAcc +100 is only for the ppl who r stupid enough to throw this egg

If you had read the posts above you'd know that the ppl who'd throw it are the ones who'd use Unlimited Shot when throwing it. "sooooo yeah," the rng acc+100 would help and the DMG would be something nice to see.
i dont know if this thing is really useful since what if u forget that u have it equipped and u accidentally threw it on a mob your pretty much kicking yourself in the face
of all the flames i've seen posted here, i didn't notice anything stating how you get this other than at the AH, what drops this?...i'm guessing some HNM perhaps?
this could be good for a PLD/NIN, a PLD that still wants utsemi(pardon my spelling) and voke. But additional effects sux. My GKT additional effect fire dmg rarely goes off.

As it has been stated time and time again, Additional Effects on Throwing Items only have the chance of even triggering if you throw the item. So this is NOT a good item for a PLD/NIN.
Wouldn't this give a Ranger the ability to Provoke, basically? That is, if it doesn't give any job a Provoke ability in the menu. Unlimited Shot + this = Provoke with that +100 accuracy.
The provoke ability only works when you hit the target, not to mention that rangers really suck at taking damage we dont have great hit points and most of our armor doesnt get the greatest def. Plus if a ranger wants provoke they can sub war, which alot do anyways for the attack bonus and extra hp.
I read the post on here and ppl saying that this would be great for rangers must be out of there minds. At lvl 75 a ranger using bow or gun already has 100 damage if not more. Not to metion with the delay, a ranger would have to be insane to even want to use this item. Even with unlimited shot (which btw has a 3 min recharge time) this item is completly worthless to a ranger.
ok, a bard can't use both this and an instrument at the same time, so they can't use it, a pld subbing something other than war won't use it unless they want to pay 2 mil per provoke, and as for a ranger using it with unlimited shot, it has 999 delay and won't do as much damage as a bow or gun with proper ammo, thus there are only 2 uses for it other than the hp regen (not that impressive when you are level 75 and have over a thousand hp), for a bst for chr boost, and for a ranger to provoke if for some bazaar reason you want the ranger to tank.
Are you sure about that? They don't match (an instrument and the egg) so I don't believe that would work. (eg, equip a bow and arrow, then equip bolts, the crossbow is deequiped, same concept here, equip an instrument, then equip the egg, the instrument is unequipped.)
I haven't tried this (don't have the time or level requirement for the egg ^.~), but I'd assume this is how it would work.
RNGs have an abilty called Unlimited Shot. This uses a range attack, but doest cost any ammo. You could use Unlimited Shot, then throw this thing, and you'd get it right back. You wouldn't DEFINATLY not miss, and you'd do a hell of a lot of damage. It'd be a great thing for a RNG to keep around if he has an equipment change macro. Also, the 999 delay ensures that if you accidently use it when you dont mean to, you have enough time to run around and cancel the throw before you lose this precious item.
You CAN NOT equip a bow in your ranged weapon slot and something other than arrows in your ammo slot. It just. Won't. Work. If you put a pebble/egg/etc in your ammo slot, it will unequip your bow. If you put a bow in your ranged slot, it will unequip your pebble/egg/etc.
