notice a change in coffers?

[DarkHawk]

Is it just me or have they changed the contents of some of the coffers? Over the last 2 days ive opened 7 coffers in castle oztroja and have found no astral rings. i usually find 3 out of every 5 coffers or more. Hands down i find rings more often then gil. Am i just in a weird slump? Also ive heard from other thf's about finding gems in the coffer there now too, never seen them there before. Any ideas from the high lvl thf's on other servers? Have they messed with the coffers or am i just parinoid.

Also any alternitive means of cash flow would be apreiceiated cus Oz just aint doing it for me right now.

Sounds like bad luck to me. Also I've found gems there before the patch so don't sweat about it... it just sucks since gems can't even repay the cost of a skeleton key <.<"

I've only gotten Mimic or gil there. Sigh.

Skeleton keys have been failing alot for me lately. Went to Castle Zvahl to pick the coffer for my AF. I got a mimic. Went back and found another coffer. 5 skeleton keys failed. Then I used a THF tool to open it. WTF.
Same with other coffers I have picked recently. :dead: :sweat:

[crakmunky]

i'm gonna try to pick a coffer in ifrit for my nin af w/ it as well...wish me luck!

Same. I used to fail up to 6 times with Skeleton keys and then switchted to Living Keys....get it almost every time (most lost was 2). SEX needs to stop jacking up Thief...

I'm about to go coffer hunting once I hit 50. What's the best place at that level (don't want to go somewhere too high or too low)? Also, should I get Skeleton keys? If you all are failing so much with them, I'd rather not pay the extra money for them. :sweat:

I popped my first Castle Oz coffers this week. So far I've found 4 of them, results as follows (level 52):

1. Mimic
2. Mimic
3. Astral Ring
4. 11k gil.

and 6 gold beastcoins. =D

11k gil in a coffer really loses its impact when you can steal a 9k coin every 20 minutes or so.

**Edit**
All were opened with skeleton keys, I used 12 skeleton keys in total.

[DarkHawk]

wow those are much higher failure rates then i tend to see, i fail maby 3 or 4 times out of a 12 stack of skeliton keys. I do make shure i have all my +dex equip on at the time, greed exc. (i xp with lust instead).

ZQM, at lvl 50 i started hunting chests in Fei yin, lifebelts go for about 50-65k on Cerberus and its a somewhat safer area to learn in, also there were many times i spent hours there alone, it can be a nice profit, i left at 60 when nothing agroed me there anymore (need some risk for it to be entertaining )

Coffer picking has a direct relationship with your level. If you're below 60 I'd say you would fail a fair amount. I've only gotten 3-4 mimics in Oz, and 2 were when I was under 60. I haven't gotten a mimic in a long long time, and can usually pick a coffer by the 2nd key. A friend who has been farming oz earlier has gotten mimics and failures a lot more consistantly.

Thanks for the tip Dark, I'll try there first.

Around when is it a good idea to head to Oz (Oz = Labyrinth of Onzozo?)? 60ish?
