Curse

Da Kenster · Sep 26, 2011, 04:17 PM // 16:17

Setting out from Gunnar's Hold, can avoid most of the enemies on the way (as you can see, I didn't really do that). Looking for 3 frigid mandragor husks.

Edit: I appear to be having trouble with my photobucket upload...
Edit; There it goes

Ice Cliff Chasms has a couple groups of mandragors outside of Eye of the North that can be killed with a SoS build. Got 4 husks already on two groups.

I am farming these on the 'Cure of the Nornbear' quest, right at the start there is a group and also if you go to the left from where you start there is another group. Kill about 9 in 2/3 mins using spirit spam.

I am sure there are many quicker ways, but just in case anyone is struggling, that is what I am doing.

There's also some close to the portal to Norrhart Domains in Bjora Marches. You can zone back and forth and get to them quickly each time.

Yep 5-6 groups in 5 mins with SoS. Just keep zoning and not a hard farm. Drop rate about 3 per run.

Easy farm outside EotN. Sometimes one group drops 3 husks. About 25 min to collect 15.

or you can do frostmaw they have tons of mandragors in them. and for those buying the husks like i did becareful. had someone try and scam me with the wrongs husks. xD

Mr_Finesse · Sep 27, 2011, 01:47 AM // 01:47

Finally a reasonable farm!

Da Kenster · Sep 27, 2011, 01:59 AM // 01:59

Galderyn's posted spot works pretty well. You can kill the dervish boss as well in the hopes of a green, like I did when I got his scythe.

jazilla · Sep 27, 2011, 06:55 PM // 18:55

do a bunch of frostmaw's runs with alliance mates. the chest in there is amazing and you can beat it in under an hour in HM with 6 heroes and another person running AP, some necros.

Raven Wing · Sep 28, 2011, 08:56 AM // 08:56

I also did it in the spot Galderyn posted. 5 runs to get 30 husks for 2 accounts. I wasn´t hoping for a greenie from the boss but he dropped double husk twice

Nicks in Yatendi Canyons collecting 1 Geodes per gift

micosay · Oct 03, 2011, 04:50 PM // 16:50

One place to farm geodes:

I go in with a full party, clear the path of all plants with the heroes, and then flag them back and SoS the beetles. I average 3-5 per run.

Thanks to the wiki prognosticators, I already farmed all I would need.

Used spirit-spam in the southwest portion of Holdings of Chokhin. There might be better farms, but I was happy to get plant fibers along the way.

Edit: Yeah, there. ^

wilebill · Oct 03, 2011, 05:10 PM // 17:10

Can't think of a better place. Had a bunch in storage so will farm later this week. But the drop rate is good and with only five a target goal, those without a farming build can go after any groups of beetles and it should not take long.

AndrewSX · Oct 03, 2011, 05:12 PM // 17:12

Out of mihanu township, in Mirror of lyss, go down heading south avoiding beasts: there are 4-5 groups to farm. Easy until you blind annoying rangers.

Slowpokeking · Oct 03, 2011, 06:34 PM // 18:34

There is one group outside of Grand Court, after the cobalt boss group there is a few more.

davehall · Oct 04, 2011, 01:35 AM // 01:35

As suggested by others -- Beetle farming outside Wehhan Terraces in Yatendi Canyons. Take a full team of heroes/henchies. Kill the foes at spots 1 to 5 then pin your heroes/henchies somewhere near spot 4. Solo the beetles at spots 6 to 8 using a spirit spamming build.

8-9 min run. Got 4 geodes on my first run.

Depending on the spawns you can just kill the foes at 2, 4 & 5, avoiding the foes at 1 & 3 and cutting the time on the run to 6-7 mins.

davehall · Oct 04, 2011, 03:27 AM // 03:27

Faster route. Either take a full party or solo it. Kill the foes at spot 1. Pin your heros/henches at that spot. Kill the beetles at spots 2 to 4.

5-6 mins.

Fay Vert · Oct 04, 2011, 01:40 PM // 13:40

Holdings of Chokhin was much better for me, about twice as many groups. I got 7 off of my first run and hadn't even finished the area.
