butterfly dance?

I'm not fond of those weather COs. That particular one, I think I did it during an EQ as well.

Yeah, I just AFK'ed in a FC map overnight. I didn't get Butterfly Dance. Bloody hell

You can't afk in a map and get it.

You have to constantly change nodes aka keep moving.

lol I've been told both AFK in a multiparty map, go do chain maps ... either way I haven't gotten it, and I've pretty much resigned to the fact that I won't get it =p

I think this is the most solid theory so far.

I was running around in a single node earlier (picking up drops after a fight, no PSE, E-Trial, or anything, and it was a good ten seconds or so after the last mob died), and my weather changed with almost no interaction other than picking up drops on my part.

Also, sorry OP, but I managed to get it today (after some struggling with it, anyway; took me well over two hours of jumping through instances and blocks, not to mention a couple buckets of patience). Sounds like the RNG is trying to pick a fight with you (wish I could smack that stupid thing across the head with a stun rod or something). I wish you luck in your future attempts.

Unfortunately the event ends today, so I won't be worrying about it too much more ... but that's the way it goes lol. I had little playtime during the event, and when I could play I wasn't really vying for that. I tried both AFK'ing, running around different instances, clearing, etc, and had no luck. But it's okay. There's always next time.
