I like this, so I will post!.
Tocis 1/??? lost count after my 50th, try had to be like 100 pils though or more. Friend got it on her fourth pil kill 1 day later -_-.

Ace's 1/10 not glowy but decent.

Mekira 1/20 wasn't gunning for it didn't even know what he dropped at the time.

Think thats all my VW bodies really. Do want big whales body and Ogiers no luck on those.

Don't really feel like spending gil, on what'll drop to me if I spam it.

1/80-something kills for Toci's.
1/25-something kills for Ace's.

and 2 days after my Toci's, while not VW, I get a twilight mail, as well. THAT was a lucky weekend, and my luck usually sucks *_*

Quick question about the cells (if anyone knows) I have killed qilin/pil etc many times but I'm not "up to them" in terms of my clear progress. Do I have to be able to pop Pil to trade in the 5x cells or just have him killed on my character?
Wondering the same! I can't find info on it.

I believe you need the clear, not just a victory, to redeem the cells for gear.

0/700+ on Kaggen. I never kept track. My wife had done 700+ and had kept track before she got her body piece. She had done a few more than me at the time, so the 700 is estimated. But I've still not got it and I've done at least 100 since she got hers.

4/500+ on Pil for Toci's. Again, didn't keep explicit track but based on averages of linkshell and pickup runs. The thing about this is, I wasn't after the body. I was after the boots. And I only finally got those very, very recently.

1/200-250 Hahava. Again, was after Ganesha's Mala, not Mextli, but got Mextli before Mala.

0/100+ Botulus (Athos's). I just don't get a chance to do it as often as I'd like. 1/20 or so on Rubeus, which I never effing wanted.

0/40ish Ig-Alima. I know Ogier's body isn't that great, but I'd still like to have it.

0/20ish Prov Watcher on Tessera Saio. Which is the one body I really, really want.

1/10 or so Porthos Byrnie from Bismarck.

1/3(ish) on Ace's Mail from Uptala. God mad lucky on this one.

Never kept track of Hekka's, but I got the body before cells were an option more than once. But I've only ever got one bullet, which I fired accidentally like an idiot and have never been able to get back again.

My VW luck is pretty shitty.

The only things I'd pay money for cells to obtian would be Tessera and Athos', and neither of them has that option. Cheap.

Edit: Oh, also, when people eyeball things they tend to overestimate the struggles they've gone through. As such, the numbers I've estimated here actually takes that into consideration. I dropped all of the bigger numbers by 50-100 from what I initially thought to account for this phenomena.

Edit2: All kills maxed red cells, many with full blue and red cells.

Ooh. Forgot Faz.

0/200'ish or so on Voidwrought, I'd estimate. Maybe a bit more.

It cost me 18m for ares's body. You kids don't know from appreciating a drop! We didn't have any fancy "marrows" to sell or "haku" to fish up! We fought ISNM's with no drops, and got up at 3 in the morning to get the merchant items for a 3% profit cooking synth!

In all seriousness:

Bodies I didn't want:
1/3 on akvan, 1/11 on pil, 1/8 on ig-alima, 1/~200 on hahava,

Bodies/items i did/do want:
0/241 (failed once on clear run. stopped when i finally got harp) celeano, 1/~400 on mala, 0/48 on uptata, and lastly..... I don't have a number to even guess at but I've spent every other stone i've gotten on Kaggen with no luck on body......

So you can get HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE lucky or super unlucky D:

I can beat that. Spent 12m on ingots. Had them ready and waiting for an Usu body that never came until years later when ore was down to NPC levels and the coins cost more than the ingots.

Additionally, spent a good 100+ hours mining an never saw single ore.

Some of us, apparently, are just "doin' it wrong."

Just can't figure out how to change that. (*'-')

Pretty sure anyone who's paid for Valk + tatters is "winning". That ***is just off the rails stupid expensive for a really marginal upgrade.

I use the word "winning" quite loosely, however.

This thread is ripe to be a bitchfest about bad luck. I'm pretty sure MOST people posting in it are, in fact, mad. Or posting their great luck to troll the people who haven't had it.

I think it's a given people in the thread are going to be less than happy, mostly.

So yeah; I am mad, bro.

Edit: So mad I took the bait for further trolling! (*'-')
