Abyssea
Abyssea
Some speculation on the glowing - I noticed that when you kill monsters in abyssea you don't get chains for kills. It seems to me instead of chains we get a stronger glow. Has anyone else noticed this?
Just above the mobs head? ***, I've probably missed a dozen weaknesses already. Hope someone works out a pattern though, otherwise it's just going to be a case of spamming through your spell list.

at last nights abyssea i noticed a glitch, it kept telling people that they leveled up to the level they were already. so level 80 people were obtaining 80 again for no reason. It usually happened 2~6 people at a time
That happened to me the other day in there. I de-lvl'd to 78 when I went in w/ a small LS group to explore (we tried fighting the little mini treant in the konschtat area....yeah. 7 people is not enough for that little *** btw...unless we just had a crap set up)...when I RR'd myself i had my lvl back, but after the next fight it showed me the level up animation.
This happened to me too. I thought it was

Maybe thats why there a Maintenance for abyssea areas. Any info?
Posting from my phone so that last post got a bit screwed up.
Just a theory about the glow, but maybe to get key item you need to progress through phases like killing enough creatures gets you feeble, then opening a chest gets you something stronger, then killing an nm gets you the strongest, etc. Could even be based on killing blows, where because you aren't using the same killing blow each time the light isn't progressing... at this point it could be anything but just throwing out ideas.

You must be pretty proud of yourself Kriss w/ all you've acomplished in this thread. It's really helpful to the community. Can I ask you a favor? I can't find the map you posted of Abyssea - Tahrongi. I'm trying to find the pudding camps (I don't remember if it was Tahrongi or another zone).

The puddings are in Abys-Konshtat way up near the dunes.

Check this thread on BG - has tons of good info/maps.
i don't know if its related but i know our first run we killed a series of mobs, then moved to a different set, after killing some more and getting the glow messages we had received a key item, from what i remember the log says that it reduces xp loss when you die in abyssea but i will have to SS it.

How do we get the Viridian abyssite of avarice?
Another question that I don't think anyone mentioned, but has anyone gotten any awesome augmented items from chests yet? We got 2 from a blue chest earlier, one had Gilfinder+1 on it, a Tarutaru Sash, the other was a piece that had Fire resistance+2 (lol).
Hmmm, did some looking about, seems you can get key item for 4 stones holding for 120 minute run but is also 2 stone duration key items too for 3 minutes extra each stone for 132 minute run?
Plus the being able to go in use stones and exit and grab more stones thing I been hearing about.
So in a sense could get 264 minute run?

I've not read through the thread, was just wondering if anyone knew how long it takes the force pop NM's ??? to repop? (The ones you use regular items to pop)
I'll have to stick around near one next time I go in. Would be nice to know if you have a group of people looking for a specific item from a NM.
I'm not sure if this has been answered yet or not, but after wiping to one of the Gigas NM's in La Theine, I went back to it's pop spot to repull it but it had already depopped. Took ~5min for it's ??? to repop.
Runs appear to be capped at 120, so I'm not sure how that will effect the key items that extend your stay and allow you to carry more. Even without leaving the zone to get more stones, that would already allow you to go for 132 minutes.
Visitant Status
The "visitant" status is essential for those wishing to journey within Abyssea. You will be permitted to remain there only while this status is active. Upon arrival in Abyssea, speak with a "Conflux Surveyor" NPC posted nearby to be granted visitant status in exchange for traverser stones. One stone will allow you a 30-minute stay (Earth time), with 120 minutes being the maximum permitted duration. Methods exist that allow players to extend their visitant duration.
*Players must acquire visitant status within five minutes (Earth time) of arriving in Abyssea. Failure to do so will result in automatic expulsion.
*Visitant duration continues to decrease even after log out. Players who log in to Abyssea when their visitant status has already worn off will find themselves instantly expelled.

The mystery here is that sentence just after the part you bolded. Does that mean it an be extended past the 120 minute limit? Peoples experiences so far suggest no, while the key items you can get suggest yes.
Because SE official messages are always 100% accurate.
I believe it has do something with Cruors, but no one knows. I've seen a chat in LS mentioned they can extended their timer with Cruors. I will ask next time when I log in the game.

I can't confirm the bonus being 3 minutes I just read 3 minutes in forums but I can confirm the 4th stone key item thing is mob drop, saw a screenshot of that one either here or BG. Lsmate has 1 of the xp reduction key items himself.
I've got exp reduction key item, just dropped from a regular mob (or maybe an ephemeral limule, but w/e).
I think we saw puddings in tahrongi too, passed them while we were on the way to sandworm
Just did a 90 minute run in Abyssea La theine. Got 2790 cruor and killed the fairy NM 6 times. Only got 1 Belt.
