Sorry, I simply don't believe this. I did many 8 man H/H (50/50 HM/NM), and settled on 4 man Hero NM for farming.

Typical was 3-4 roots per run, with best runs netting 6. I saw no difference between 4 man and 8 man parties. This is consistent with the Nicolas thread in Riverside Inn, with the exception that a solo A/Me claimed 6-8 roots per run. I farmed sunspear rank from 4k -> 8K (warrior whirlwind - ~500/run), so ran N to mandragor shrine, then circled out to get all.

Oh, and why do you have 2 different stacks of roots in your inventory (9/6)?

Because the 2 stacks are from different inventories. 2 people team.


It took me a long time to finally gather my 45 roots needed for 3 accounts worth of gifts, and I got nothing, just some potions, stones and honey.

Can Pull two to three groups make sure to flag heroes first gather groups around you then let them RoJ average 4 A run max I got was 6 it was done on normal mode. Only the the Southern End to the River Never went past the second Rez Shrine to the north with more groups good run is about 15 mins a bad one is no more than 20.

Didn't take me too long to get the 60 roots I needed solo as a touch ranger with added PvE skills.

Might do it some more for personal gain for cakes after or as stuff to do.

Seriously...why perma to solo? I had a friend who soloed it too as his warrior using just Defy Pain and Lions Comfort with a bunch of attack skills. People find them that hard?

Meh. Roughly 3 runs to get a good efficient build(s)/route. 2 man, Assassin and a Monk, then another 4-6 (I forget how many) runs to get the 60 roots we needed. Runs cover same route as CED's, NM for speed, only took a few minutes each run.

So yeah, I believe C E Devilman.

So that's 60 roots in 7-9 runs, using 2 accounts. Assuming 7 runs, that's 4 roots per run. Not 8 (15) for a short run, or 10 (20) for a long one.

I guess we can still assume this is from 2 accounts, even though no confirmation from CE...

Well at least that was on-topic (I got ectos from madragors too!), and answered the question...

EDIT - LOL, 750 wood planks... You don't know how much I cringe every time I see wood from a salvage...
