Default WiK Mini Farm

Hi all

With the 50 mini's needed for the Hall of Monuments, I found myself needing another 6 or so... I figured one way would be to farm the WiK mini's... Just wondering if anyone has any builds or places that work best? My best guess is I could try farm the Battle for Lions arch with some sort of solo build maybe?

BLA has a special anti-farm code where NO greens nor minis will drop (I know this for an absolute fact), so BLA is out of the question.

Farming for an Enforcer, Isaiah, or Dorian will be a total waste of time, as the drop rates for them rival the Polar Bear. Doing the bounties and trying your luck with Royal Gifts would be much more wise, but even that is a waste of time. Just buy 3/4/5th yr whites.

All I can say is save up your presents until you have a hundred or so, then open them in the wee hours of the morning. That is what my wife told me to do. So once I had 70 presents, and got tired of waiting, I opened them up about three in the morning. I was lucky enough to get two WIK minis. I don't know if what she said was true or not but it worked, yes it could have been luck, but I am NOT going to tell her that.

Might just want to buy em. I've opened 275 and no minis. Also if you have all the campaigns, you should have 8+ characters who will provide plenty of gifts to load up hall with minis. Especially if you trade the nicer/ newer minis for yr 1-4 whites.

It's a Random Number Generator issue. By doing it all at once when the fewest number of players are online triggering the same function... you basically reserve it for yourself like a complete roll of lotto tickets and isolate any issues of some external forces restarting the RNG and cheating you out of your better probabilities or putting you on longer losing streaks b/c they're more spread out. *(though it can cut the other way if you're an inherently "lucky" SoB) ...atleast according to machine code theory and the limitations of RNG's
