Anyone have relic shield?

[Zumi]

According to this site you trade the relic shield to a ??? at K-6 in Lufaise Meadows and it spawns NM Ram. It will summon all the rams in the area to help fight you. Probably meaning that it would take 60+ people to fight. Probably drops something thats used in upgrading the shield.

[Radav]

ROFL.... well once we get one of these we're definitely testing this out.

I wanna see all the rams coming to fight someone who does this.

[Zumi]

Remember that one time we try to exp on them and they did that curse thing that takes hp down do like 200. We probably get owned but I just want to fight them too it would be fun.

[Radav]

OMG its that ??? wow... We'd need at least 18 people prolly more.

i found animated shield in xarc after everyone dropped glass
maybe shield doesnt cost as much to upgrade as weapons>_> i hope not

[Fatman]

I noticed a new ??? the other day...

It says somethng like "you find the broken remains of a shield"

[Harmonia]

haha we tried to exp off those birds and rams too.

Worst.Idea.Ever.

We were owning the Ram until it took our pld to 200 max hp and criticaled for 300 8D

That was the end of our Lufaise adventure

What level are the Rams? Do they aggro? Wonder if you could hit the links with something like Ramuh > Thuderspark (AOE) and train them back to Safehold and/or until they kill Ramuh. Or RDM/THF SS/Blink/Phalanx > Diaga and Flee. Just a thought, trying to be creative here.

Zumi which site are you talking about?

Do you fight the NM after or before you finished the upgrades?

the one fatman found is for hickory/tatami shield i think...

if it does summon all rams in area ( 2 only) why not kil thsoe 2 first then summon, u need to clear area anyway..all those birds.

[Irinicus]

Interesting, where did you read that it summons the other 2 rams? From what I read it never said anything like that at all. Also I read a Paladins experience with this NM and there was no mention of it doing this. Hmm, maybe they decided to give it this ability in a previous patch??? Dunno.

[Zymurgy]

hickory shield/tatami shield is Gration, a Giant NM. and it's in MIZZOU Shoreline, not Lufaise Meadows. that ram nm is different, but I don't know what the pop item for it is

[Juma]

apparently the relic shield is or something Q_Q

[Cybaster]

here is the new HNM added from the patch

Amaltheia. ram HNM, trade relic shield to ??? in K-6 of Lufaise Meadow

Gration. gigas HNM, trade hickory shield to ??? in H-8 of Misareaux Coast

Geush Urvan. buffalo HNM, trade haunted muleta to ??? in L-8 of Uleguerand Range

Ouryu. wyrm HNM, trade cloud evoker to spatial displacement in I-9 of Riverne Site #A01. 18 man uncapped bc, 60 minutes. besides ouryu you will have ziryu (worms) and elementals adds

[Zymurgy]

[Zymurgy]

lol you have to get a hide from the ram by using a relic shield, so you can make a leather out of it, so you can trade it to the goblin nm as one of the items to upgrade your relic shield >_>

[Eltia]

Best FFXI quest, ever!

[Irinicus]

NO FREAKIN WAY!!!!! That is soooo Assnine. So question is this then, ifyou beat the NM ram, do you get your relic shield back then? Is the shield Rare and/or Ex?

[Radav]

ROFL... SE is just testing out the new forced spawn NMs to see how often people kill them. Its prolly something they're looking at for future updates. I think its good they're doing this would be nice to see HNMs like Fafnir or w/e to involve quests like this.

[Irinicus]

Don't really need big quests for it, just have a small type quest to acquire an item that will spawn the HNM is all. Hey even better make a BCNM/KSNM/ENM that has to involve taking an alliance of 18 ppl in to kill and the reward would be an item to pop the HNM.

[Izzy]

they did. The item is cloud evoker. You pop your own Ouyru with it. Pretty neato fantastico.
