Of course, with your little experience you can explain droprates, ain't that convenient. If you read the post from the guy who farmed raptors and vaettir so much that he has stacks of tomes and glacial stones, you will notice that he too says killing stuff one by one is total nonsense when it comes to better drops. Even the OP says that you get 1-2 golds a run on average, which is the same number as it was before kegging was nerfed. Of course, this number may vary every time you kill a mob, as it's completely random, but the average droprate remains the same. But be my guest, run this if you want, I know I will be getting more stuff and that's what counts.

Well u can, but I wouldn't recommend it due to the extremely high armor vs ele-dmg they got. Just using sliver means you'd spend some 10 mins per round just to kill one of the spawns. Not worth it imo when this method is way faster

oh yeah ofc, little experience, and what grounds do you base 'little experience' on

why did you not show a spot where u can block the Vaettirs on the otherside? I found a spot im just wondering =P

cos i think it makes more sense to just round up the bigger group, kill, then rezone, rather than to round up a smaller group, smaller group = less points and less loot

If you want to discuss droprates, make a thread with meaningful data. People raging at each other making random claims doesn't prove anything and just derails this thread.

could you explain this a little more? need anything special? what ranks are required, I created my sis only for farming so it dosent have very high ranks in any titles (except norn of course :S)

can i just point out that the whole point of this thread wasnt about the speed at which you can do things, but about the potentially higher drop rates of doing it a different way

What do you want more of? I will agree you seem to get more white drops but only a few, definately no more golds and i would also guess no more event items either.

i this topic, i must agree with no damage tank.... we all know you can do this alot faster... this is just a , lets say, second option, in case you can't perma sf with echo, or just want to have it done as a/e... for example: uwsc, you can run vale support a thousand different ways... obviously one or the other will be better, but there are still the secondary options, right?

GZ on the nice build and idea, have tried it out, (why do the crappy drops only drop ME??) only been getting 3 whites per run :'(
