As far as what I’d do with these buggers, I’d say since they’re just hatched, why not just gather them all up put them on a ship and send them back to Southsun Cove. Or we could just find them all and cook them? I mean I love crab…. make a big bond fire on the beach and have a luau with karka legs to eat!

Can you tell us if the flower bed above the door one is meant to be shot at from above or below?

You know, I get it that Anet wants us to go look around this map. They obviously put in a lot of work and it looks great, but…

I must be getting old something because I just don’t have the patience for this sort of kitten anymore. I haven’t found a single one of these things that wasn’t posted here. That’s enough of that…

I’ll just wait until Dulfy has the full list.

You sir are a monster, and very short sighted. What we should actually do is tame them and raise them to be Lion’s Arc defenders. Lion’s Arc now has airships for sky defense, already had the navy for above water defense, the Lion’s Guard for land defense and an army of Karkuard would make ideal underwater defense. Also since they’re walking tanks they would be pretty useful on land too.

I was having a hard time with this. Seems like sometimes the Karka just don’t show up, even though I’m hearing them chitter around me. Makes it almost impossible to actually hit them when you can’t see where to aim.

there is no way to hit that one wihtou fly hack

If that’s the one near the gardens, you go up to the garden and jump to a small pillar nearby. Jump from there, and you can get to where you can shoot it.

The one in the flowerbed above the door, however… I honestly think I’m going to call that one bugged. Even with people coaching us, a lot of us stood where we were told and aimed where we were told, and never hit it. Worse, that spot is shooting THROUGH the flowerbed, which shouldn’t be how it’s done anyway.

delicate, brick-like subtlety.

Well yes, obviously if training turns out to be unfeasible then a grand Karka B-B-Q in the Commodore Quarter is the way to go.

Okay, this was weird because i was in the cave earlier and hit one, and even re-visited it 5minutes ago and there was nothing there. Then i changed instances and it was magically where it needed to be. Possibly a bug there i presume.

From what I can figure out none of my characters aims directly for the bulls-eye of the green circles, they are all a bit off in one direction or another and to different amounts. This has gone from being a fun game of finding them to me the frustration of being able to see it but not being able to get the target just right.

I know some people like this sort of thing, especially since it involves the JP. I wish there was more of a variety of stuff to do.

I will make the request again. A dragonite eater is needed and thanks anet for giving us one. Can you please have one that is not contingent on this though? Let those that do it have princess but let the rest of us buy something with gems, whether it is princess or something else.

Yeah, that’s why I gave up on trying to time it. The bullet never goes to the centre anyway; it seems to change every time I move my character as well.

That said, I’m unsure if the bullet graphic is actually related to hitting the target.
