Dunes last nite, did i imagine this?Follow

Ok get this, its now 5:30 AM GMT... My party in Valkurm Dunes had just decided to disband cos we were all tired n had stuff to do, n just as we did we get the message for Server Maintenence.. 10mins to log out etc...

Fair enough, a pt member blood warps, pt disbands... i start heading to highlands...

So as a bit of fun, i decide to make a train of gobs to see how long my little 16mnk can last for, n as everyone is logging out, its no real harm.

As im doing it... im going to the newb tunnel... saying "choo choo" for effect... suddenly... THIRTY (30) lizards appear around a single hume wid NO armor..... i go "OMG"... n just as im trying to focus my eyes on this spectacle... noticing 2 other players had stopped to view it.... my FFXI CRASHES!!!

Its like OMG! I know i got ***** graphics, so my computer probably cudnt handle it all... but the lizards were in a perfect circle around this hume.... n they just appeared...



What was it i saw? a uber-high lvl farming? Sum1 overly-training lizards? OR a GM playing in dunes wid a innocent hume... hmmmmm

I didnt imagine this.... im sure of it!!! >_<

Maybe the gm's had this hume binded too. hehe. Or even cooler if the lizzys were all gm's and just chasing the guy all over the place hissing and such.

lol i dont think it was that bad

but they did just appear... n was sooo many lizards... just dead weird....

Maybe my comp loaded characters slowly around me.. but still that was a lot of lizards for a un-armored hume to deal wid....

*sigh* if only my comp hadnt crashed, then i wud of found out wat was going on!

lol probably a high level having somefun
it doesn't matter if ur naked or not.
30 lizards cant hurt u if your lv75.
30 misses is what i can see..
even if it hits, maximum they will do will be probably 1-5 damage

its not hard... for anyone who has ever trained and then turned around to fight them they'll understand. The NPC monsters always attack a certain distance from the person they are targeting, unless of course that person is closer to them than normal and they provoke it or gain hate off it from someone else...

Try going to Gustaberg and pick out about 10 Bees. Run for a while, then stop and turn to fight them. They fan out around you all the same distance from you... with space between each of them.

This lets you know that mobs try to distance between each other also... probably helps a bit on AoE effects and stuff, I understand why its programmed in.

Finally... walk through lower jueno... you can run from MH all the way past the guidepoint before people start to load. Round the bend and look at AH and its empty, you can even run right up to one of the windows... then stop and BAM!!! people load over and over on top of your. All at once too, its not like they all just logged in right then.

Then your computer probably hit the server maintenance and you got booted. No biggie... happens all the time.
