edit to add, there ARE monsters by the wreckage.... several giants and a rockshot devourer i think it is. warriors should just be able to pop in for the items and sprint out if theyre careful.... but for all you squishy types.... the mobs will move away if you give them 20-30 seconds

Yeah, the devourer pops next to the wreckage, aggroing the sand giants on you... The loot is very poor (1 blue out of ten drops...), I made about 600 gold in 20 minutes... I can make more in Southern Shiverpeaks with henchs in 10 minutes.

Divinity Coast, by the way...they added enchantment removers and tengu elites around the barrel, not mentioning the army of oak guys that appeard recently near the spot... About the drops: yes, there are purple and golden items sometimes but rarely they contain upgrades, they are basicly vendor junk. Again, I can tell you, just clear Talus Chute with henchs for better money/xp.

There's a wreckage just near Sanctum Cay, I think you have to do it with the mission, but it gives relatively good drops

directions: when you get off teh boat take teh sceptor of orr (just for the energy boost)
and follow the path, once you get to the beach kill all the drakes and move near the ghost man. right next to him is the wreckage!

Ermac · Jun 28, 2005, 11:36 AM // 11:36

Um are we really talking about the same spot sunyi? I mean i can get like 20 Very good weapon mods + 2-4 crystalline swords in 1-2 hours ...you can just run past the oak guys and the tengu "elites" as you called them arent hard to come buy just lure em away and get yoursled killed so that you ressurect up on the hills AND there arent any enchantment removers there !

ps: I Love ya stryker ive already gotten 70k from the barrel ^^

I found a strange spot a little bit south of Fisherman's Haven. If you are walking along a certain patch of the little hills there, a sack of gold drops out of nowhere in front of you with anywhere from 100-250 gold in it. I think it's more trouble than it's worth, though, because there are inferno imps all around there, and it takes at least 2 tries to get to it, for me at least.

I've already /bugged it, so it may be gone pretty soon.

Feli · Jun 28, 2005, 01:26 PM // 13:26

Arena.net just loves this thread. All those people spilling out their secret farming spots. I'll lean back, keep my spot my secret and watch every other spot getting insanely nerfed, just like it happened with every spot before that got public.

But go on, keep on spamming your spots, the more powerful my spot will get. Well, mine and that of others that keep their mouths shut about it.

Lord Bentam · Jun 28, 2005, 01:38 PM // 13:38

Have they nerfed Divinty Coast?

DaRhino · Jun 28, 2005, 01:46 PM // 13:46

Feli, you do realize that if all the other farming spots get nerfed, it will only be a matter of time before the botters discover yours. All spots will eventually be nerfed, it is inevitable. But I still encourage you to farm it, right up until the update.

Ermac · Jun 28, 2005, 01:48 PM // 13:48

No divinity coast havent been nerfed....oh well there has popped up 3 lvl 16 tengus there but they are easy to get around

Creshnire · Jun 28, 2005, 01:50 PM // 13:50

is it found at the most right of the map?

Ermac · Jun 28, 2005, 02:06 PM // 14:06

There is a map posted earlier of the location......

Squall Zell · Jun 28, 2005, 02:42 PM // 14:42

Ok So felt a little bored today so i decided to do the divinty coast barrel run 50 times and draw up a tally chart of the weapons i found, here are my results,

White - 45
Blue - 34
Purple - 24
Gold - 11

DaRhino · Jun 28, 2005, 03:14 PM // 15:14

Ok, here are the stats for your barrel run Squall Zell...

39.5% of drops were white

29.8% of drops were blue

21.1% of drops were purple

9.6% of drops were gold

I think the spot has been nerfed, because I used to get a gold every 2-3 drops. The second time I went out I had 2 golds drop.

I think I'm gonna go do this also... But, just for the sake of science. =D

Squall Zell · Jun 28, 2005, 03:18 PM // 15:18

Tnx for that man,

Yea i think it has been nerfed TODAY towards the last 15 runs i got no golds and all whites was a bit strange, but in the first 10 runs i most of got like 5 golds.

sino-soviet · Jun 28, 2005, 04:09 PM // 16:09

Thanks a lot for ruining my primary source of income. How can you post this in a public forum and expect the good times to last?

XENOGEARSHARINGAN · Jun 28, 2005, 04:50 PM // 16:50

couse this forumis to help people out if they nerf it its becouse bots abuse it not players that run to it.

Ermac · Jun 28, 2005, 05:17 PM // 17:17
