Salvage Glitch

[Minnich]

This happened about a month ago. We tried to replicate it many times with no success.

Was with 7 people and I was the lone person in a PT. At about 5% I died and we were low on time so we dropped ally so we didn't lose the items. When it died I was out of the ally, but I still saw everyone talking and saw the drops in my chat log. So I get raised and as soon as I accept the raise both the items drop to me and I accept ally invite only to see them still in loot pool and in my inventory.

Anyone else see anything like this?

Happened to me years ago after I disbanded from a party. No clue how it happens, but its safe to assume it's hard to replicate.

Grats on your lucky pieces

FFXI + lag = fun for the whole family.

It would probably take less time to figure out how to replicate this then to get everyone in my salvage group their macha's coats

Yeah it's not salvage-exclusive. This happened a few years ago to us too on our LS's 2nd (3rd?) Vrtra. Best part was the person had dropped ally to tag a summon that had gotten away, and then CFHed it.





Which, due to the glitch, resulted in a CFHed Vrtra





at 2%

Stop lying you hacking pos

[Seditedi]

Did it actually dupe? or did it disappear from your inventory after zoning out?

[Churchill]

We got 4 drops, that was also essentially a 5 man BC with no RDM lol.

[Suiram]

Oh I'm blind. I only saw the "could still see everyone talking" thing and didn't even notice you got a 2nd togi. That's some weird shit.

[Churchill]

Yeah he died so I broke ally at 3% since as you can see we were near time out. I was more concerned at the time with getting stuff passed/lotted and didn't realize what had happened. It was a laggy day in FFXI, like one of those times random people DC at the same time in different zones so yeah, when the conditions seem right it'd definitely worth a try.

This happened to my group at AC month or 2 ago. Thief in the other party died at like 25% and I disbanded the ally since we didn't have much time left. In the end he and the main ally got drops (skadi legs which 2 of us needed anyway, nice~) but since then it never happened again

Happened to my group on Saturday. Dissolved ally as we entered because one of our members was afk, and as we killed the first mob, the afk magically got 2x Magic cells in his inventory, and we got 2 in our loot pool.

Unfortunately, someone popped the first box at the same moment the ally was dissolved, so we lost all 10 of those cells and had to do it old-school. There were 2 magic, body, ranged, and 2 STR in there, too.

Ferien we need to repeat this when we get good drops and not MP cells

Except they'd ban you if you figured out how to replicate it and did it secretly, if they found out.

That's why you can do any zone with 6. Loose lips sink ships.

That's why we can do any zone with 6. Loose lips get killed and sunk on ships.
