BST will be my second (and hopefully last) time I have a coffer in this hellhole of a zone. I also have a CZB coffer (again), which is just as bad.

Could be worse, I guess, I could have temple of ugg or Ifrit's Cauldron again.

For me, getting the key for Castle Zvahl Coffer was bad. But actually finding the coffer wasn't that big of a deal.

Let me put it to you this way. A PLD friend of mine needed to find his Zvahl coffer at about the same time. He didn't have WHM or RDM leveled to sub. He was dirt poor/cheap, so he wasn't going to be using oils and powders. He'd helped me get my coffer key there, so when he asked me to help sneak/invis him to find the coffer, I decided to do it.

So as a lvl 56ish WAR/WHM, I kept both me and him sneaked and invised around Castle Zvahl Bailey long enough to check pretty much all of the coffer spawn points.

I'll do THAT any day over having to go to Garlaige to find a coffer.

No, it wasn't you. I want to say it was Cass. Or Norr.

Hate!

Re: Garliage Coffer, Half rant, Half...?

Every time I'm in Garlaige, there is always that one guy. You know, that guy who doesn't remember how to use the switches. Who never has his own method of sneak/invis, and who wants to go AFK when everyone is just getting into place.
He's the same guy who dies outside the door, and wants everyone else to come back around to raise him.
I hate that guy.

Dude, I'm sorry

Re: Garliage Coffer, Half rant, Half...?

I had to try and co-ordinate with 3 other JP players on who stands on what plate. In the end I just ran to one and stood on it until they figured the rest out XD

Re: Garliage Coffer, Half rant, Half...?

Garlaige is hands down the worst zone in the game. I can understand the way SE designed Eldieme -- grab a friend, and two people working together can reach every coffer spawn point. But Garlaige is just pure torture. I wish SE would consider reducing the requirements for opening each gate to something like 2-out-of-4 or even 3-out-of-4 pressure plates being pressed.

I had to get Garlaige coffer for BST AF not long ago. I had to suffer through working together with 3 strangers to get past Gate #3, having everyone wipe, and barely pulling off Reraising and surviving a fight with a nearby Fallen Major. My reward for getting past Gate #3? I had to compete with around a dozen RMT accounts doing their own coffer run. That was not a fun experience.

EDIT:

Forgot to emphasize, it must be spelled exactly like it is in the inventory, down to the capital letter placement, periods, commas, whatever, I can't stress that enough.

What he said.

The easiest way is using the Autotranslated word as in "<insert autotranslated stuff>", those " " are important if the name has more than one word.

Nin is SSG, Ifrit's and Kuftal iirc.

Blm is Eldieme, Garliage and Davoi. However, blm hands are Garliage, so you can actually trigger it on blm, and because it is a quest item, pop it on rdm. That is how I did it.

I have had 3 Garliage so far. Sucks. Next job is smn, so Torblahblah Canal, Uggy Temple, and SSG FUN.

I hope BLM and NIN are not there for AF.
I bet they are though.

I know BLM has AF in both Garliage and the Necropolis, don't know anything about NIN.

Re: Garliage Coffer, Half rant, Half...?

I hate the Garliage coffer too. I've had to get it for AF for 3 or 4 different jobs (sorry I lost count lol) and it has sucked every time. Because I have a couple of 75 jobs, I can solo any of the AF coffer keys with no problem. Then, for all areas EXCEPT Garlaige, I can go back with the proper job and sneak and invis around til I find the coffer. I really like being self-sufficient when it comes to AF, especially since I have 4 jobs with full AF that are *not* level 75 because I can't seem to find another job I've enjoyed playing as much as the two I DO have at 75, and so I really feel like it would be asking too much of people to keep helping me get AF for a job I might get bored of and stop playing. (Fortunately, when you already have two level 75 jobs, you have some freedom to bumble around and quit jobs in the 60's and even 70's lol)

That Garlaige coffer though, there's just no getting around it, you have to either get people to help you or stand outside the gates for, literally, HOURS hoping somebody else comes along and opens it. And if they do, you can bet they're looking for the coffer too, so you'll be standing around some more waiting for it to repop and hoping it repops on the side you happen to be on. Honestly I don't know why SE made that coffer so irritating.
