Yeah, took me ~20+ runs to get the 5 for my boyfriend (since there's no way he'll ever get these ones himself) then put off my five until some other time. I got about 13 sapphire ones though >.>

You'll know when he's found when someone posts that they found him. You don't have to ask.

Guildwiki.de found him in Majesty's Rest, collecting 2 Thorny Carapaces per gift. Confirmed -- here he is in English.

People seem to sell the carapaces for 1,5k/each.. Kinda funny because it's extremely easy to farm.

They always try that early on Mondays. If you're buying, try later in the week when the prices will stabilize.

It's the buyers fault paying too much just like with event drops lately. Some people figure gifts are 4-5k so anything under that is worth it for gifts if they don't have to get their hands dirty farming. Though I doubt many are paying above 1k each. Guess I'll farm em later.

Yeah, these sellers aren't taking into account the degree of difficulty involved with farming the different items. They're just looking at the price of gifts. Djinn Essenses: very poor drop rate and not the easiest things to farm- 2k per isn't ridiculous. Thorny Carapaces: Decent drop rate & easy-peasy enemies. Why even bother buying them? Getting the needed amount can be done just getting to Nick, if you take a bit of a scenic route!

It was nice to see how fast the greedy sellers got shut down last week!

Had plenty on on my prophs material mule for my five accounts plus 9 extra. Even with a full party of heroes, I'd collected another 10 by the end of my 3rd run to Nick.

Easy farm is right.

Looking at this post i expected this week to be very easy but..

Im getting 1 carapace per 2 majesty rest runs. Taken a few hours to get 20. 30+ runs.

Cant understand how people reporting 10 per run, major exageration or something. Theres what only ~20 mobs or so. The drop chance feels same as every other collectable drop.

Try farming the dry areas around Druid's Overlook. Plenty of devourers there.

I farmed around Druids Overlook and Ventari's Refuge, and the droprate was dreadfull

so....like....BAD luck....or overfarming seriously lowers the droprate.
I am a firm believer of the latter.


EDIT: today the droprate is much better

Last time he asked for the carapaces I used to clear Ettin's Back of devourers. Lots of them there.
