Elemental Swords are worthless, dont bother farming them unless you think 5k is a lot of cash

In all the runs I've done I have gotten one elemental sword. The drop rate is crappy and not something to rely on, and seeing as they are worth crap now I just gave it to my friend.

Yes, I have gotten a r11 and an r9 there. Sold both of them. However, the prices are WAY down now. Its not worth farming for ele swords. Farm there for cash just by selling the junk to the merchant. Do Ursan speed UW or FoW clears for real cash.

I got a q9 non max one in NM after about 150 runs, sold right away for 10k in Rata Sum. Got lucky though, now they are basically worthless.

I've gotten at least six q9-13 gold ele swords from HM raptors in the last... oh 5 months or so. Got sick of trying to sell them, and traded them to someone in LA for some other equally worthless junk (Murakai Reaver/Blade, and an Elite Sin Tome - which was funny cuz I can't sell the ones I have for 2k- and some other stuff, couple glacial stones)
Got a q9 Saurian Scythe from Raptors too... the only thing I haven't gotten to drop there is black/white dyes, which everyone seems to claim there's loads of O_o
Slightly offtopic, but every single time I ID a Great Conch of Endurance, I snicker to myself.
