Ok, first things first, i wouldnt recommend using this on any player other than RMT (gilsellers), so that you wouldn't gain any kind of bad reputation with actual players.

The way this works is, you find an RMT selling items such as Anmity cape, Cassie Earring, Serket ring, or any other type of HNM drop like this, and give them a /tell offering to trade them an item for one of theirs. It's ususally good to offer something of greater value than their item. So you /tell them that you wanna trade a Mercurial Kris (40M) for a pair of Strider Boots (25-30M) straight up, they should accept the offer pretty quick. Now, before any of this, the item you offer to trade must have another item that looks just like it, i.e. Merc. Kris -> Normal Kris, Kraken Club -> Shellbuster, Speed Belt -> Merc./Quick Belt, PCC -> Ranger's Necklace. Trade with them and put your first time (the actual item you offered) in the first box... but here's the "exploit", click the box you wish to put the item in, then scroll over the item you want to trade and quickly press enter twice (or whatever your confirm button is). This should have your item you want to trade in the trade box and your cursor in your inventory ready to switch the actual item with the fake. Let them get a good look at the item then once you think the time is right, click on the fake item. This should almost instantly switch the two. Let them confirm first, then press ok! /blist add "insertchinaman'snamehere" if you dont feel like seeing "????" "fuck you in chinese" and stuff.

I will repeat this one more time, i do not recommend using this on any other people other than RMT.

I've been able to pull this off twice within 2 weeks, both times using my Mercurial Kris. Once for Anmity Cape and then once again for Strider Boots. It does involve some good timeing on your part; i'd recommend practicing with a friend so that you wouldn't end up screwing yourself over from some stupid mistake you could have figured out practicing. ^^

Don't think the first time you've done it, you wont be able to do it again. I did it to the same character twice, which prolly means there are multiple people playing the character. But meh, if they remember you, just make a mule or use an exisisting one and try again! Have fun!

From the FFXIAPP Fourms,.... ^^ he recieved a free copy for that so i thought it might be good

Only thing is.. you need to have the good item in the first place.

ViciousIchiban · 07/03/2006, 15:32

Took a while though.

At least you got it down. Thumbs up.

StinkyCat · 07/17/2006, 01:30

Thats hilarious lmao. I knew a guy who used to do that to non RMT's... what a jack ***. Great idea to screw over the RMT's though ^^

eliteman · 09/05/2006, 10:15

ill make a mule and do that to every one lol, it can be done with gil too...

put up 10M for an item, let them put their item up, then just take your gil off... they usually still accept, and once you accept you cant unaccapt unless you push cancle, so they are ****** if they hit accept. (yeah they can hit the actual cancle button but it takes a second to realize you just took the gil down), plus worst case scenario in that case is you accidently trade a fair amount of gil for the item you want.

pandaonffxi · 09/05/2006, 19:13

GMs can just take the gil back though, and they will. So just do it to RMT -.-.

I thought if you screw someone over in Trade that GM wont do anything about it? I knew someone who had a K Club stolen in this fashion. When this happened it was reported to a GM and the GM said they could not do a thing because both party accepted trade. This is like people who use to sell Ninja Tools x1 for the price of x99 in bazaar. You report to GM, too bad so sad. Learn to be smarter next time. o.o
