Correction for the OP, they are called "Icy Humps" not "Frozen Humps" Also, kinda annoying I had to kill ettins to get to him last week and now I got to go back to griffon's mouth this week.

Though I think mine is somewhat more straightforward, no?

The maps I saw show an incorrect location. I just went there and he is NOT around anymore. I resigned and will check AGAIN.

Edit: so he does not show up when you have some quest active. Stupid!

That's pretty much common for any area that he shows up in.

Another week, another hunt. He's been in Prophecies so long, any guesses that he'll be in EoTN this week? He hasn't been there since the beginning of August.

If he does stay in Tyria, that will match his longest stay on any continent, which occurred in Tyria over almost the same period last year (August 31 - October 11, 2009; he has currently been in Tyria since August 23). That streak included a single visit to EotN.

He hasn't been to EotN since June 14, actually, when he visited Varajar Fells. I would agree that he's overdue for a visit there.

[edit] Curses! I got ninja'd and my prediction got shot down.

Yeh Confirmed - on the cusp between the scar and skyward.

Oh and b3n - Blank out your name

Crystal Of Winter · Sep 27, 2010, 04:44 PM // 16:44

Not so bad this week then.

Also, why do we need to blank names out?

Arata Hijime · Sep 27, 2010, 04:46 PM // 16:46

Also confirmed.

So as not to give hackers any advantages.

On-topic: unless I'm totally blanking, I can't recall ever picking up a shriveled eye in the whole 18 months I've played. Should be an interesting week.

Per Guild Wiki:

"A good area to farm for these lies in the northeast region of Prophet's Path (right after you use the teleport) when taking the northwest path toward Seeker's Passage. This also happens to be right next to Salt Flats for easy zoning respawn. Coincidentally, on the way to the teleporter are a handful of minotaurs good for Minotaur Horn farming."

Edit: Piece of cake! Easy to get up to the teleporter with a spirit spammer. Go NW out of Augury Rock, you should see it on the map. On the other end of the teleporter, lots of easy targets for the spirits. Got six shriveled eyes in the first batch, zoned to Salt Flats, zoned back in, got the last four without even killing them all. Actually getting up to the turn in point is harder than collecting the eyes!

You have far better luck than I. Did 4 clears of these and got 4 eyes, plus 2 eyes from killing all the storm kin on the way to there from seeker's passage.

Your only required to block out other people's names, not your own if you want to give it out.

distilledwill · Sep 30, 2010, 09:33 AM // 09:33

I farmed them with a spirit spammer ranger. In the NW corner of the salt flats, thereas a couple of big groups of them near a portal. Kill, zone, zone, kill. repeat. Easy peasy.
