will the zooes be stopped??Follow

hhmmmm......with SquareEnix's new emphasis on gil sellers/buyers, does anyone really think that zooes will stop? will they be banned? anyone think the prices of some high-quality items will go down (emp hairpin, valk mask)? will we be able to camp NMs now? just wanted some opinions from other people. personally, i think gil sellers will always find ways around the rules, but that's just my opinion.

hey, on this topic i really dont want to defend the zooes because i fear ppl may look at me differently lol...but i have pted with the zooes and alot of them have helped me camp nm's.....there really not that good....personally i think they r what they say they r and thats a family of chinese ppl. I also no alot of other ppl that think they r a chinese family playing.......and about them selling gil...its only the father that sells gil...he buys them there equipment....the other family members dont like it but they said they dont mind the expensive stuff lol.....neitehr would i

I've only had one experience with the zooe's. I had just zoned into Selbina and saw a dead person laying there so i /sea and see a lvl 50 pld but... its a zooe. I asked both in english and with auto-translate for a raise for the dead guy. the only response i got was ????... until i mentioned a reward, then they suddenly understood what raise meant.

There are a couple of Zooes farming Gobbue Tree cutting and Moss drops 24/7 in Zi Tah now. They apparently took over when Ladykiller, Firewolf and Icewolf moved on to better locations. I think that the Zooes are an internet cafe type of thing that also does gil selling on the side explaining why they will party and socialise sometimes yet be doing the typical gil seller stuff later. Thats ok though because like the typical Zooe they arent very good at claiming the Gobbue in Zi Tah and I still am able to get enough cuttings for my gardening projects.

If you guys want to get away from the gil sellers for a bit. I recommend completing the Promyvion missions and getting access the Tavnazian region. Yeah the Promyvions are hard but I think the difficulty of the missions has also kept the gil sellers out of those areas. The Promyvions require top of the line equipment, properly leveled jobs and good teamwork, things the typical gil seller dosent have. So the next time you get frustrated with those missions remember that the difficulty is also keeping the gil sellers from accessing a vast area with alot of rarely camped NMs with some really nice drops..

Hey Con and Cae (its Surae) i personaly think the Zoo's are gil sellers 1 becaue they are as Con said DD classes so they can take out mobs quickly. They are always in farming spots such as Battalia, Sauromugue Champain (sp), Pashow, yadda yadda yadda, and theres always one in a city if you ever /sea all zoo so thats probably the one selling the stuff or sending it to other players...just a thought

I just gotta vent a little bit right now cuz im getting really fed up with these zooe pieces of garbage. I was camping Stroper Chyme last night and there were about 5 zooes there as well. I camped for about an hour and decided to give up cuz they were getting all of the claims. I logged out at about 3am. I came back on at around 12 this afternoon and there they are.....the exact same zooes...camping the same exact NM. They are definately gil sellers, and even though they may be friendly, they still sell gil. I am getting so fed up with these people ruining the game for honest players. /cry. All I want to do is get my darn Archers Ring damnit! They swarm the big room where the NM spawns and than spam everything they have on it as soon as one of them sees it...... sorry for my mini rant, but I just had to let off some steam. Anyone know of any NM's that I can camp that aren't infested with the Zooe scum?

Well, shortly after I posted my last post about the zooe scum, I had a streak of luck. I managed to get 6 or 7 claims of Stroper Chyme in a row, which throughly pissed of the damn gil sellers. Although I didnt get one drop (aside from the occational slime oil) I was more than happy to know that I had beat out zooes on the claim that many times in a row. I would get the claim and they would sometimes do an /fume or /anger. Heh heh, it made my day to piss them off. It started out being around 5 zooes in the area like I said in my earlier post. Well after I started getting all the claims I saw 3 more zooes fall through the hole that leads to the stroper chyme area. That made a total of 8. Realizing that I really couldn't compete with that many people, I decided to take my leave for now, and I am going to go to better pastures soon. And Conquistador, thanks for the info on the other NM's to camp, maybe i'll try a lower level one for a bit. I'm kinda strapped for cash right now and im getting tired of farming, so camping NM's is gonna be the way to go for me.

They're gil sellers.

I don't know of any normal families that mined in Gusgen 24/7 for weeks until the new gil sellers arrived.

I know they sure did.
