How Long Did It Take You To Get Dring

I wish I could tag a certain someone from our linkshell in this post >:D

To answer your question, I stopped counting around 0/15 and got it one or two campaigns later. At some point I began buying sav shanks I could find below 1.5M but my Dring finally dropped from a login shank

Yes.

The GM will remove the item from the player if proven guilty. The item will then be destroyed.

There is absolutely nothing that can be done toward the players that got ***.

Depends on the GM. I know right now they are typically a lazy bunch, but a few years ago, some GMs took it seriously, some didn't. We had one guy lot and not pay, and the GM did nothing to the person, because "You can't technically sell an item you don't have in your possession.", then later, we had another GM not only take the item from the person, but also the agreed upon amount of Gil, and pay our leader with it.

1/44 on my part!

No, you're mistaking 3 different situations ans just treat it as "GMs are lazy and do whatever they want".

There are strict policies.

If the agreement is bad, nothing will be done as the GM cannot prove that there was a proper agreement, and therefore cannot prove the scam.
If the agreement is good, the player who's guilty will be dealt with.
If it was a trade based scam and the item is still on the guilty player, it can then be given back (money, items in general). However, there are absolutely no guarantee of this, ever. The GM will always tell you "we will do our best, but we cannot guarantee anything". There are many factors, many things to check with the policy, before you can move items, or even create them if the situation requires it. The only thing a GM can be lazy about is not doing the investigation properly/at all, but it's a grave mistake and is very rare.

If you were scammed of a rare/ex item like the example given above, it has never entered your inventory, so you aren't allowed to have it being given to you.

If you were trade scammed and the item has been sold/traded to other players, then the investigation becomes much more difficult, as in, it becomes much more difficult to give it back to the player.
If it was sold on AH or through bazaar, you are ***.

GMs may be lazy, just like any human being doing a repetitive work task and dealing with (mostly) idiots, but they still follow specific policies.
Brainless bashing like you do is specifically why players are very difficult to take seriously and are very often told to kindly go *** themselves. In a corporate way and if policies allow, obviously.

Most GMs are pretty enthusiast about the job and aren't allowed to be lazy anyway, they can even be pretty pro active. It's not correct to straight dismiss them.
Just like it takes 2/5min to understand if a player is stupid or not when receiving a call, take the time to understand the policies behind in order to be sure if there is laziness or if it's just policies being harsh.

A friend in my LS, who totally deserves good things, is in the hundreds of kills. I, on the other hand, went 1/1 on Savory and 1/1 on ring, and don't deserve it. Wish I could donate my ring to him.

1/13, give or take a couple.

1st character: 1/3
2nd character: 1/2
3rd character: 1/16

Just want to know friends did buy me shanks to try and help me get it as well before i did get it and i used all 5-6 off my shanks from my main and mules each log in(that i remembered they had s shanks in the log in)

I thought it was in the plds forum sorry i forgot to check iff it was a spell cast forum or not sorry.

All in all, I think I used up around 40 Beaslty Shanks and 12 Savory Shanks from login campaigns. Never bought any Savory, only Beastly and only when cheap.

I used more b shanks then i can count. the s shanks like i said it was more then 37 something like 65 but i lost count and then just started again as i started to try again.

a follow up question now what are you going to do with the s shanks from the next log in now that you who have d ring got it.

me i am going to take the 1.1mil-1.5mil and buy my self 3 more stacks of dyna coins so i have 3 more 100s i need.

what about you guys.

I have killed King behemoth over 300 times and only ever saw Pixie Earrings. (People on Cerberus, especially people who sold the pops know how bad my luck was on this.)

Just buy some +2 stones from Skirmish to augment Alluvion armor/weapons :P

#I don't play anymore, I went full Scumbag and went to FXIV where the fights are harder than 11, although there needs to be far more... content we'll see with the Heavensward Update making us have to farm all the shitty dungeons to get good enough gear to beat Alexander

0/30ish myself, went 1/1 for WW leader back at 75 cap :<

No One Cares Valmur!

I hate you, and reiden, and Midgitis for going 1/1

see someone shares my pain. i know like 5 people in my ls who went 1/1 and i wanted to yell.

And I only had that shank that finally dropped it for you because we had 500 more login points than usual. (That char is behind on trusts and needed all four of them.) So, double lucky there.

You and everyone in the linkshell know i am greatful so thank you i want to say again.

Does it even count now with all the free shanks from mules and cheap ones on bazaar? 1/26/100+ going back when shanks were 8 mill and kb was still a lottery pop.

As for the stolen pop, sounds like alliance/party leader was too stupid to collect gil or kick member before it dropped.

1/10. I only actually bought 4 savory's. I went out 6 times with the intention on just buying the ring. Popped it 4 times in a row, got it on final pop of that round! No thf ftw!

My ls went 1/86 in the days of kings. Only about 3 a year were dropping on Ragnarok before it was made a pop nm. I then went 1/68 post update. Anyone who is 1/1 can ESAD!

having a thf dose not matter. TH dose not work on KB.

Just got my D ring last week, 1/35, been trying since before loggin campaigns were around.

1/1 on Dagget, 0/11 on my alt

1/20ish for Spyderhawk 1/3 for Alt

Selling the ring this month if anyone is interested PM in game or on here. Nothing lower than 20m. Thnaks.

1/151, I kept track in my bazaar comment so I may have missed a few kills. A friend and I spent a ton of gil on nq and hq shanks.

After he spent millions on shanks for me, his ring dropped the next day on his first kill.
