1 for 3 on drops for astral ring (550k on Fairy ATM). 2 BSTS and a WHM own this BCNM, but also did it with BST, WAR, WHM but its much easier with 2 BSTS.
1 for 3 on drops for the thunder spirit pact (250k on Fairy) as well.
A cheep way to get some good drops but not sure of the rate for astral drops. Potential is there but BCNM 60's might offer better returns if u can pull them off.
Wings of fury?

It recently got updated, and it says it comes from the BCNM 20 - Wings of fury. Can anyone confirm this?
RE: Wings of fury?
# Jan 10 2005 at 1:44 PM Rating: Decent
I can confirm 100% that it drops in BCNM 20 - Wings of fury

Dont care what lvl you are 50MP is worth alot of GIL, look at any equip. that a mage can buy that gives you 50MP. Both rings the convert 25+HP > MP are expensive they are not meant to be common place. Serket ring? $$$$$ Now Astrals.


SE didnt want just anyone to slap on 2 Astral rings and go xping.


Any mage drools at the thought of getting just one slot with Zenith gear in it thats 50HP-MP, so to say 50MP is a waste .... >.<

the info about bcnm50 treasure chest and astral ring being one of the items you can win is accurate

i did this last week, picked right box, and got astral ring as one of the prizes. i even have a screenshot showing it
#REDACTED, Posted: Jan 07 2005 at 3:33 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) well, on valefor, it used to be available in coffers in castle oztroja, but they changed that. so now no one knows how to get them, and they are 450k+ in AH. I wouldn't even pay 10k for such a stupid item.

I wouldnt call this item worthelss at all. It may seem so to some races, but as a galka mage, I find that having 2 astral rings are very helpful.
Greedalox? I think not.

As stated several times. People aren't getting "greedy". There is just an exorbitant amount of morons out there. Simple as that. If you think an Astral Ring is worth 400k (Seraph), then go ahead. I just don't need to hear that the person who put it up for auction for 400k is greedy. If there's a sucker out there to buy it for that absurd price, then so be it. If I ever get one and wanted to sell it, yeah, I'd wait for the market to rise and toss it in. At lvl 58 five MP isn't worth 380k when compared to an Electrum Ring. As for lower lvl jobs >.> I've made it fine without having an Astral as the job with the lowest MP.

This IS actually a key concept of Economics (though stated a tad crudely lol). NO price is outrageous if there is someone willing to pay it. Though, granted, I wish there were fewer people willing... -_-;

The update has moved the astral ring from Castle Oztroja to Den of Rancor or something along those lines. The website still hasn't updated themselves but this is why the price has probably jumped since you can't just camp the 1 chest as a thf in Castle Oztroja by the limit room. And as far as the prices are concerned, I don't know why you are complaining when you can go spend a day or two and camp the NM or chest and get the drop yourself. I know thats what i did.

The update hurt Midgardsormr. Leaping Boots are now 700k and Emperor Hairpin is a lot more than that, too.
Asura is Horrible

Your server Prices are nothing compared to Asura:
Astral Ring: 500k
Emp Pin: 600k
Leaping Boots: 550k (Winged Boots are cheaper now)
Dark Staff: 200k+

On the subject of the BCNM50 treasure chests, a thief friend of mine has told me that twice he has obtained Astral Rings from this BCNM. I would assume his information is accurate, since I see no reason why he would falsify such a thing.

Contrary to your server that hasn't been the case for most high priced items on my server.

With the exception of a VERY select few items(and you do have to look hard for them), most NM drops and high priced items have dropped.

On the Lower end the prices of regular drops, things you sell from farming, etc haven't changed much at all.

Your server is likely the exception, not the rule - on my server as well (Pandemonium) things dropped dramatically the day of the patch, then rose to their previously stable cost, with certain items becoming even more expensive that before.
Heh...

No idea what in the world Square did here, but Astral rings now sell 400k to 450k on Diablos. The day of the patch they dropped to 220k from 250k... Then the next day they went to 450k.

/clap

Good job Square! Ya go to fight gil sellers, and free some things up... And make things even MORE expensive. I heard chiefkabobs are now 18k on Diablos (pre patch, 7k). So far, only good this patch has done on diablos is made Scorpion Harness drop from 9 million to 4 million.

Guess I should have bought astrals while they were 250k

Ok I heard you do a bcnm 50 where you have to chose a treasure chest (Small,medium,large) and if you pick the wrong one you have to fight a mimic (Think of it as death). If you pick the right one (1/3 chance) you get a random amount of items. You may not get astral rings.
Ok.. Huh?

Wow... interesting topic. I wanted to know where to get an Astral Ring because I am starting to level my Elvaan WHM/BLM and I figured that if it wasn't too hard to get one I could try. But, if I understand right, you have to be level 50+ to try and get coffer keys to open a treasure chest which has the ring in it? That's what I got out of the topic, fill me in if I am wrong. I haven't leveled much higher than 30, so if you have to be high level... *checks mog safe* eh... there goes money I could've spent on a Monster Signa for my BST.

Heard two different things -- Drop from Vahlz chest/coffer and a BCNM 50. I don't know which one it is. Anyone that could verify, I'd be much abliged.

If it's Vahlz, I'd suggest selling off your rings now while the price is high -- Someone will find an effective way to farm them.

If it's BCNM, save them for when they get rare. Doing so will net you nice cash when no one has them and the prices go up up up.

If this ring is now on BCNM50 the price is going to go up alot more because getting 50 seals takes alot of time. Can you still get this in the coffer like always or did it change to just BCNM?

I'm hearing rumors Astral rings can be obtained in Den of Rencor but you must activate a quest first. Or maybe just opening a coffer chest can obtain an Astral ring.
I'm thinking of taking my rdm over to Den of Rencor, solo some tonberries for a key drop and open the chest. I already have the map so hopefully either an Astral ring will be next or just gil.

0/3 coffers in den of rancor
THF74/WHM37
3 coffers contents:
9k, 13k, 15k

I might try more later, this coffer is harder than castle because once you get aggro through sound, you have to zone, unlike in castle where THF can easily use Hide

and soloing the Temple Guardian is quite a workout
Gotta love the economy!

Lastnight after the update, no astral rings could be find in all the AH's across Shiva server. In Jeuno, last one sold for 230k. This morning, a couple in the AH, selling for 300k a piece. Gotta love the economy!

/phew! I bought mine pre-update 200k each
