Lvling NPC with friend. 68RNG and 67DRK. NPC at 56. Entered New from area#6 from Old. Fought the Trash Bugs (2) and had 3 drops in about 3 hours. Plus the Gold keys drop like rain from the gobs there. Easy area to zone from if things go bad. Never did, but back up plan is always nice to have :)
Is this Item needed by each person wanting to do Bionic Bug ENM or just one person? Also, in ENM, you can only go once every 5 days, like you can only trade stone once every 5 days or go in once every 5 days period? Thanks
Yes, every PT member wanting to do Bionic Bug will need one stone, which they will trade to the NPC to get the key item needed to enter the BC. Also note that you can't take any shortcuts (i.e. warps from moblin NPCs) to get to the BC once you have this key item, or you will lose it. You have to get there the annoying way that involves getting people through Newton and back to Oldton on top of ledges, have 3 people hit 3 different switches, and have everyone run across the ledge really quick before it drops again. Little tip: if you make sure that the WHM at least gets across, then anyone who doesn't make it can die under the ledge and the WHM can tractor them up and R3 them.
Also, you can only go into the BC once every 5 days. That is to say, if you lose, you're out of luck for 5 days. Once you've done the BC and used up the key item (whether through a win or loss), you must wait 5 days to turn in another stone for another key item.
