Piping is just telepiping back to Pioneer2 when you see the monsters unrare form and just keep doing that until you see it's rare form

Sometimes you just have lucky days - days when you barely, if at all, have to pipe for anything you're looking for. I'm still trying to figure out which days are luckiest for which of my characters, though...

There are several other threads which deal with the same topic, DragonRider, just look for 'em. It's when you place a telepipe/use Ryuker, and go up and down, to and from the city, awaiting a rare monster to appear and drop you a good item.

just be warned: piping can take hours upon hours

Piping i think has its good days and bad days
The first time i piped it took ONE ryuker, and the rappy appeared to give me my red handgun
The second time it took 8 pipes to get a hildetorr (only dropped a mind material though)
The last thing i piped was to get a God/Body from the lilys in very hard caves I found 3 in under an hour (it took that many to find a 87.5% drop)
However sometimes I have piped for nearly 2 hours and not found anything (damn hildetorrs, i want my Irista)
I would say pipe no more than an hour each time, its quite annoying as you do not get the experience from doing normal runs when looking for a rare, it is also a tiresome process,
I only like doing it on enemys that don't cast megid, I have been killed by 2 hildetoors after ages of piping, very annoying
