I was on wiki earlier and for the few years I have been playing I have noticed this until now xD.

This about Ravagers in the bonus of Bloodstone Fen

Tell the truth now.

and here's a link

Yup. Known about it since a a few months after I started playing. Yes. I was a noob that actually knew how to use the wiki.

I knew that...but yes it's a waste of time. The time it takes to get there, and the very small chance of getting one...I'll pass. If I'm doing the mission with my heroes helping low level characters who don't need the bonus, I'll run through there for a shot at it, but odds of getting one are unlikely.

Already knew it since like... a long time.

When I actually cared about PvE, I was looking for an uber farm, and I found that they actually do drop ecto's. Then I read about the retardly low drop rate and I went back to hopeless Hydra farming.

Tyla · Jul 25, 2008, 02:46 AM // 02:46

Nope. I didn't kill 'em and I never used Wiki.

Sergeant of Marines · Jul 25, 2008, 02:53 AM // 02:53

Yup, I knew it. It has been the start of several other threads If I remember correctly.

Issac · Jul 25, 2008, 02:54 AM // 02:54

I knew about the ravager but not about them dropping ectos, interesting.

The Red Messenger · Jul 25, 2008, 03:09 AM // 03:09

never heard that before

Wolf2581 · Jul 25, 2008, 03:10 AM // 03:10

I have known about that for some time. Whenever I am doing the bonus for Bloodstone Fen, after completing it I always take on a group of Guardians just for shits. I have never had any globs drop, though.

Same here.

Go figure Bloodstone Fen is my favorite Prophecies mission. I always enjoyed killing the trees after getting the bonus (helping someone) to see them come out, but them actually having Ectoplasm... that's new for me.

shoyon456 · Jul 25, 2008, 03:28 AM // 03:28

Yes, I knew that. In fact when I was a noob I once saw an ecto drop from them.

Spazzer · Jul 25, 2008, 03:35 AM // 03:35

I've heard a rumor about that since a little bit after release, but I have personally never seen them drop an ecto.

Anyone have screenshot evidence?

Trax Reborn · Jul 25, 2008, 03:35 AM // 03:35

yes i knew...i go thru random things on wiki sometimes.

Songbringer · Jul 25, 2008, 03:36 AM // 03:36

I knew but could never get a solo build to try and farm them....Never tried with heroes though.

Edit: When I was a hardcore player and not just a casual one(now I barely log twice a week) I would search wiki and try to be 1 step ahead of the next "in thing" so I could stockpile them and make money. it worked every one out of 5 times.

Konig Des Todes · Jul 25, 2008, 03:38 AM // 03:38

I knew that they dropped ectos. I like to kill them after I do the bonus, for fun, before and after finding out about the ecto drop. Never got an ecto from them.

**cosyfiep** · Jul 25, 2008, 03:38 AM // 03:38

knew about it since before factions came out, have killed them on many occasions....never gotten anything but seeds from them so I gave up (aka not worth the effort....ecto is easier to get other places)...

fenix · Jul 25, 2008, 03:41 AM // 03:41

Yeah, I knew, but no, they don't drop them.

They did 2.5+ years ago, not any more. Some update removed the possibility. Also, there hasn't been a single screenie of them dropping ecto.

So you linked a picture that could have been taken any time over the last 2+ years?

Recent pic maybe?

Spazzer · Jul 25, 2008, 04:05 AM // 04:05

That's a screenshot of someone picking up an ecto. I think what he was asking for was a "screenie of them dropping ecto."

[edit] I reed gud.

ya, screenshot holds up. dunno of any time they've changed the drops on critters.
