ranger can wide scan since level 1. There are painters who transform the sun into a yellow spot,
but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence
transform a yellow spot into the sun.

If you craft the skins, it's not so bad, but it has a tendency to be a long camp. THF/RNG is excellent here. Mary's Horn isn't terribly common so expect to come back a few times. You can't really employ a chocobo since you have to kill the placeholders, but it really helps if you can one-shot the sheep. You can, however, use a chocobo to "cherry-pick" the spawn since there are usually quite a few people hunting sheep in Konschtat while waiting for a party in Valkurm (or hunting Stray Mary/Leather goods themselves). If you can, hunt the rams too and do Purple Belt if you're able to kill the NM--the rams spawn just a bit east of stray mary's zone. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 12-05-2006, 01:40 PM | #7 (permalink) | | Junior Member Join Date: May 2006 Location: Hanover, PA Posts: 19 Style: Dark - Version 5 Thanks: 0 Thanked 0x in 0 Posts Gil: 1,023 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 1,023 Donate | Re: Anyone got any tips on Stray Mary Originally Posted by Jei | I've tried camp this NM a couple times.

It lists every NPC/monster around you. for a certain radius I can't tell for sure. There are painters who transform the sun into a yellow spot,
but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence
