I've been a big fan of the famous club called the Kraken Club for a long time.
I even dreamt about it like a week ago, yeah it's sad but true. Today I finally got to borrow it from my friend and HNM LS leader on Gilgamesh server.

I took it and a Dainslaif (HP drain sword) and went to Davoi to farm Lizards and stuff, just to try it out.
The club is goddamn awesome!!
You get like 40-60TP a turn and it looks cool.
Unfortunately it is dropped from a HNM Kraken in Onzozo called Lord of Onzozo. Spawn time is 21-24 hours and drop rate is somewhere around 1% from what I've heard. But I will (must must must) get my hands on one some beutiful day...

I have added a little movie i recorded with the club in action. Worth mentioning is that i got my club skill from 1-99 in approximately 90 minutes..

Video is recorded with DivX 5 codec which can be downloaded at http://www.divx.com

The video can be found here: http://www.cqr.nu/plake/ffxi/plake-kraken_club-1-divx5.avi

Enjoy!

That club is pretty damn sweet. Nice video despite the chopiness.

When I "grow up" I want to use the Kraken Club and that new Sword that "Occasionally attacks 2 to 3 times".

That'd be awesome!

That weapon is called Hrotti and Idon't think RDM can use it. Joyeuse is RDM wearable though, it "Occasionally attacks 2 times" ^^

Yep. Well I don't know if the chopiness comes from my computer, the codec or the recordign program in itself.

I'll try to record a new better one later.

i was told you should only use it if your a dark knight. b/c the damage is low and darks have souleater. stack on souleater and you have a lot of damage i was told

What program did you use Plake? I usually use Fraps but you pretty much have to set the resolution to the lowest possible else you'll get a 24 mb file for something that last 15 secs. Starving artist's guide over in FFXIonline.com forums is pretty damn helpful.

Good tips to use

Most people use it for the tp you get. But a RDM with en-spells and KRaken Club can be deadly.

Thanks I'll check that out.
I have fraps but i was playing in windowed mode when i farmed, and i really didn't want to log out and switch mode to fullscreen so I took what i know can record windows, which is Camtasia Recorder.

So thats a Kraken Club... oh you know thats going to get nerfed sooner or later.

[Ryomakun]

it's pretty much nerfed as it lol
ever tried to beat the jps at claiming the mob?

[Varsis]

There's programs out there that allow you to window FFXI. Heck, I'm pretty sure that searching for "windower" on these forums would pull up a link for you.

[obsidian]

Mmm, windowed mode is nice. Makes quests much easier.

[Demon Swordsman]

Imagine a RNG/NIN with Kraken Club spamming SlugShot/Sidewinder. If you had 2 in that party it be non stop SC

hahahaha "Parry while petrified!? wtf!?"
