My guess is no since they vary per person.

I'll test it when I'm at home tonight if nobody else posts an answer by then.

Edit: Best case is you get one of the random strings of numbers/letters at possible spawn points?

K so I'm dualboxing these fights, and both my chars have the starting Clear Abyssite

just killed the passhow worm and neither changed color, but do both chars have a chance for the abyssite to change to colorful? or just the popping char?

It can take multiple encounters before they change, for the love of god when one characters changes do not heal to find another with that character as it will be tier 2 and they hit hard...

The char who pops gets the chance for change, iirc.

OK so Im still kinda fuzzy on this vnm program. From what I've read the person doing the healing/"tracking" is considered the "popper" and only HE gets a chance to change his abyssite? I think my confusion is that I'm used to a "popper" as being someone who physically trades something to spawn a mob not just /healing.

Yes healing is the popper though anyone with the same absyitte will get the same heading. /healing sorta is trading if you are close enough.

Started doing it today and man some of them move around alot and fast. Like was within 5-20 yalms /healing for 5+ min once as it bounced around. Good times

Ya I noticed they move alot too. I was in n.gust trying to solo that stupid *** worm and got the slime 2x. Was sam/nin and did rana/gekko for some dmg then had to do YGK right after and then meditate to try get him almost dead. Thank god for npc healer. Needless to say on the 2nd slime I got buttf**ked. I did however get the worm to pop in between the slimes and had no problem at all soloing him...but the slimes.....well...ya. Still no change on my clear abbysite tho...so I joined a vnm ls.

Me and some friends went 0/forever trying to get color change on crabs and fish in E.Ron(S) and Jugner(S). Then we moved to Batallia Downs(S) and went 3/3 on elemental.

Took down T3 crab with 12 and popper got black on first kill.

I've probably killed over 50+ mobs on my clear abyssite so far, and have not had it change color.

I had a friend with us the other day, we did 10 for him and his changed color.

Am i missing something here, or am I just having extremely bad luck. Been doing this on and off for almost a week and no change in color.

Bad luck. Just keep on trying. Stayed 1h killing T1 VNMs on East Ronfaure the other day til I just gave up.

Went another day before an event started and on my second kill it changed color.
