Best Hands for WHM til AF
# Jan 25 2006 at 6:53 PM Rating: Good
I got these awhile ago, and used them for my blm to 36 (so far) and my whm from 38-60 when I got AF Hands. The -enmity at that level makes a huge difference, and I've found people are wow'ed by them when they check me and want to know where I got them from. Likewise, for my BLM I used them from 25-36, and the -enmity made a big difference, especially if there was another blm in the party (he pulled hate constantly, while I almost never did).

2/2 on these, one pair for me and one pair for my friend who started levelling whm recently. Easy pop, moderately easy kill, but I would suggest a slightly higher level or a buddy or two with you for the kill, since he spams poisons and stuff like crazy.
Got em!

I did this with 45BST/15THF Solo. I just pulled out a familiar and went to town. I am 5/5 from helping my friends. I used the order of Woozy, Dance, Sleep.

This is one of the very few Items I managed to not have a problem getting. Almost as easy as Chocoboe Leech or Carnero.
Hrm.

Some people seem to get it 1/5...

For me, I got them with my very last set of mushrooms last night... behold! 1/17 :D
1/2
# Dec 23 2005 at 11:48 AM Rating: Decent
went 1/2 on these as 75thf/whm (for teleport), extremely easy....about my only advice is watch for silence gas..it hit me for around 150ish dmg...(no silence) but that might hurt pretty bad on someone lower level

Me and my linkshell went to go get these mitts for our blm, but in the end we decided to get them for a few of us.

We ended up 3/3, these will be good for those situations were I find myself pulling hate too often, but I'll probably stick with devotee's otherwise.
2/2

This was a tough fight. I was WAR 30/THF 15 (TH1), my LS partner was WHM in his early 40s, 44 if I recall correctly.

He got hate very early, and kept it pretty much the whole battle. Virus was cast at least once by the NM, possibly twice. He cleared it with Viruna and hammered on it with nukes while I stood behind it swinging my great axe (and missing embarassingly often) and using sneak attack as often as I could (which always hit, praise be to Square).

This went on quite some time until he ran out of MP! He used some kind of juice, but that never recovers enough fast enough, and with the NM at about 20% I really thought we were doomed.

A timely Benediction, however, saved us. With the WHM already having much hate, it made no difference in who was taking the majority of the damage.

Eventually we did manage to kill it, ending the battle with him at about 20% HP and MP left, and got the cuffs on the first drop! I was pretty glad, as there was no way we were going to risk trying it again with just the two of us! (I did offer to try to get him a set too, but he declined, happy with what he had. Forgot to ask what that was, though.)

Thanks Kaileth!

Haven't tried them in battle myself yet... With the Zealot's Mitts, I was casting Cure II for 90 HP and Cure III for 176. I think I'll be okay with the lower MND bonus, but I also wasn't drawing hate very much and my tanks have been perfectly capable of handling it when I did. When I leveled, I upgraded to Devotee's mitts, so I do have both. I'll try to remember to come back and add to this post and add some detail about how it all works out for me.

These gloves have the hidden effect of Plant Killer.

I was leveling in Yhoator and got aggro from a Mandy from heals. It attacked me but was intimidated!

I'm not sure if the hidden effect is constant or if something triggers it.

When I first saw these Mitts, I knew I had to have them. I got a buddy of mind (57WHM) to help me get them, as I was only level 18 at the time.

Went there, got them on the first drop. He took care of the Mycophile pretty easily, and im glad it dropped first try.

The enmity-2 at this level is insane. Im always asked about it. Im really suprised more people dont have these cuffs.
The secret of the drop!...not true!

I hate to tell you but your little combo doesn't work =) on 0/5on it lmao=P
The secret to the drop!!!!
# Sep 14 2005 at 9:06 AM Rating: Default
ok heres the secret its all got to do with ORDER
if you put them in the wrong order the drop rate is 0%
if you out them in the right order the drop rate is 100% now it took me 2 tries to figure out the order but since then im 4/4
The order is:Woozyshroom,Danceshroom,Sleepshroom

anyway lemme know if it doesnt work,IT WILL WORK, so you only need 1 set of shrooms

Used PLD56/THF15, used the order, got the drop the first time. Maybe it was luck, maybe it was TH, but it worked.

Ok, i went here was just looking around for the ??? point... was confused by all the dang tree ??? points around, then finally get to the little room with the ??? point on the mushroom. Well i see some lvl 75 RDM spawning him like 3 times in a row, and i asked him if they were 100% drop or not... he said no (since this was when they first came out) So i was like damn i only brought 1 set of shrooms. So he gives me like 4 more sets of shrooms, and lets me take a wack at it. I pop him, kill him pretty fast as 66 RDM/BLM and get first kill :/ i felt bad that he had been there for along time :(
1/17

Well I finally got my pair with the patient help of a friend of mine (Thanks Choei!). All I have to say is 1/17... If you get to the point I did where all you are reading is "I got mine on the first try" or "We got 4/5", you start to think you are doing something wrong...

Well, my advice to my fellow Unluckys, is just suck it up and keep at it. Things like trading the mushrooms in alphabetical order (yes I read that as a strategy somewhere) and the like has no bearing on the drop. Grab a THF if you can, otherwise just be patient.

Not sure if this information will help anyone, or if it just coincidence, but I will provide what I have seen regardless:

Obtained the drop on this yesterday on the second claim.

Party configuration was 75 THF/RNG & 33 WHM/THF so each of us had TH1 active, and one TH2 active.

First claim, no drop. Thief used Dancing Edge.

Second claim, drop. Thief used no Weapon skills, WHM used no magic. Each of us used Sneak Attack once, and Steal once. Nothing obtained from the Steal.

Mob was killed (last attack) by Thief.

It was Lightsday, Waning Crescent.

EDIT: Mob Cast VIRUS on the Thief second battle, not first. Perhaps this has some bearing on drop?

My hubby and I both got them. 2/5 on them really. I'm wearing them as a lvl 25 whm right now in the jungle and they do help a bunch.

I was in a party with another WHM at the time and he was pulling hate like crazy. I was casting on average the same amount as him and curing for the same amount (he had Zealot's on), and I never once pulled hate. So...yeah. They work very nicely. Look cool, too ^^
Awesome

A few members of my LS and I went. We ended up 4/11 on these puppies. Another LS mate went on his own and went 1/2. This was duoable for a 55PLD and 55BLM. 65WHM solo'd it, just for reference. Hurry and jump on these before everyone else does. That 15 minute timer is a pain in the ***, I'd hate to see what it's like with competition!

Someone asked me if these had some type of hidden effect. I told them I had not heard of any, but they heard they did. Has anyone else heard about these having a hidden effect ?

I'm 1/1 on this guy. Didn't have THF subbed either, so I got lcuky. These are awesome mitts and it was very sweet to get them on first try. I easily beat him as 58 RDM. I'm leveling my BLM so I can sub on RDM for Chainspell + Escape (good help when parties get in trouble), and these mitts will be awesome to wear while leveling BLM. Awesome for WHM too, but I probably wont be using them since my WHM is 37 unless doing Promyvians or BCNMs. Great cuffs for things like Promyvians and other lvl 30 cap quests. The INT and MND are nice but the Enmity is the best part.

--For anyone that needs it, the location of the ??? is I-11 of Carpenter's Landing on top of a mushroom. Easiest to go through the Jugner Forest entrance in the east-middle part of the map and it is very close inside. To trigger the Mycophile to pop you must trade the ??? a Sleepshroom, Woozyshroom, and Danceshroom.
-- Good luck :)
