It's a common misconception that 100 stacks = 1 level


I kept track of every stack it took to get dig delay 6 and it was over 220.

Finally got to dig in the jungles and Altepa. Items of note: Ebony logs and coral fragments.


Not sure how many stacks I've been through since I started. My guess would be over 200. My macro gets errors at /wait 15. Not sure what level that is. So far, I'd say I've broken even as far as income vs. ghysal greens cost goes.


Anyway, I'm having fun with it.

I didnt feel like reading all 10 pages so I am sure this was already posted.


I lvl'd to 2 on a zinc ore and to 3 on a giant femur.


there is no test system.


I have never dug in the jungle. Not even once.

My wait between digs just went down to /wait 10. (guess that's level 2, beginning with 0).


w00t!!


I had just dug up a chunk of Zinc Ore in Rolanberry Fields.


Lost money the last couple times I went out though. I seem to do better in certain areas than others as far as finding the rarer items.

if you are lvl 2 beginning w/ 0 it is /wait 6

lvl 1 is /wait 11

Oh, well. I leveled anyway. LOL


/wait 10 seems to work, though. I have a /wait 9 after the second dig so I can tell when I level the next time, too. My macro is:


/dig

/wait 10

/dig

/wait 9

/dig

/echo dig macro terminated.


That way I get two digs and the third one gives me the error that I have to wait longer.


I tried to make a 30 minute ride timer like this:


/wait 1500

/echo 5 minute warning.

/wait 180

/echo 2 minute warning.

/wait 110

/echo 10 seconds to eject.


But I guess the game doesn't allow waits over 60. >=(

Digging in Carpenter's Landing.


I am a 0/35 digger. I went to carpenter's landing not anticipating digging, cause i didnt know i could bring a chocobo in there. so i only had 2 stacks of greens. either way, i dug up these items: little worm, holly log, willow log, maple log, mistletoe. sounds vaguely familiar to the jugner forest list. I want to go back and bring about 10 stacks to verify. and based on the list posted on the somepage.ffxi chocobo page for bibiki bay, i believe that it is the same as buburium peninsula. I hope that SE didn't screw us diggers over by not adding any new digging areas.


Someone let me know if they find anything out

I've been digging like crazy, and so far no new items. Just copies of Bubu and Jugner. *sigh*
