Good Greens to Farm this Weekend? - Guild Wars Forums

Braxton619 · Nov 14, 2009, 02:36 AM // 02:36

Hi guys, I am planning to farm greens this weekend, and I don't know any popular ones to farm. Any one know any bosses that drop good greens? Thanks guys and good luck on your farming!

Good greens? Isn't that an oxymoron nowadays? On a serious note though, I think the only greens worthwhile is the greens you get from Duncan's end chest and Frostmaw's Burrows. Having said that though, those greens aren't a boss drop but rather an end chest item so.........ye.

Would you be planning on using or selling the greens you get?

Using them on Heroes

Divine Ashes · Nov 14, 2009, 03:09 AM // 03:09

Then we probably should know what heroes you plan on using...and their bars >_>

gremlin · Nov 14, 2009, 03:41 AM // 03:41

Just check the wiki for the list of greens check their stats of the greens against your requirements.
Then its just a question of deciding whether you want + health + energy or to have your skills recharge and cast faster.

I did this to get load of staffs and bows for my characters then when I got Nightfall I used the buried treasures that you can revisit to stock up my heroes.

Fastest way is if you have access to the bonus items then you can stock all your heroes with no effort at all.

Woe spreader, Ssyn's Staff, Chaelse's Staff. Asterius' Scythe.

Off the top of my head those came to mind.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but those don't exist.

Come on, plenty of useful greens. Don't be an elitist.

CronkTheImpaler · Nov 14, 2009, 07:14 AM // 07:14

This is the only place i would spend time to farm greens.
not necessarily in this order

Scareater
Ssyns
Woespreader
Kephket

Now i know there are others BUT these are fast easy and good drop rates in the passed for me.

Thanks where ill be knockin around if i feel inclined.

Ahh come on folks! Everybody seems to be cutting greens to death.

They're not as bad as some would have you believe:

1. They can be very useful for heroes
2. You're not temepted to mod them, cos it don't work
3. Some of the best greens are an excellent addition to your arsenal
(Galigord's staff springs to mind here)
4. And they all have perfect stats, albeit a somewhat weird combination at times

Greens are still worth farming, but no longer really commercially viable.
The reason is the introduction of EotN w. loads of lovely R.9 gold things dropping from chests even in NM..... Still a bit of fun to see if you can get that boss to drop

Seriously though, on these weekends I usually check the unique items list on wiki http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Unique_item and farm for the ones I think will best benefit my heroes

Sorry to burst your bubble, but statement of widely accepted facts is not elitist.

Woe Spreader, Kephket, Galigord and Rago are my preferences. The run through Sorrow's Furnace is actually a pretty fun time waster anyway, with lots of greens you can try for on the way. Most of 'em are crap merch food, but it's still cool to see 'em drop.

SpiritBond · Nov 14, 2009, 02:15 PM // 14:15

Well since those greens are worthless i'll also probably get some for my heroes, and those will probably be:

~ Scar Eater
~ Exuro's Will
~ Ssyn's Staff

And some others when i'll check the stats on wiki

nitetime · Nov 14, 2009, 02:28 PM // 14:28

widely accepted fact? that there are no good greens?

I do not accept that fact cause I believe good greens exist. I have greens on 90% of my heros. Ragos and Galigords are 2 of my favorites to.

I just don't really care for SF anymore.

A F K · Nov 14, 2009, 02:36 PM // 14:36

I would normally be on the "there are good greens" side but... now that you can get any gold skin you want, any req you want, etc. ... it's hard to call.

Riot Narita · Nov 14, 2009, 04:57 PM // 16:57

I'll often put Kepkhet's Refuge on prot monk heroes, and The Nightbringer on MM heroes

Both pretty easy solo runs, I got myself a couple of spares of each yesterday. Kepkhet dropped two of her staff on the first run. Got one Nightbringer after 3 runs (sprint from Moddock Crevice past everything... kill one group of frogs outside fort, then trigger the popup group with the boss), then a second Nightbringer after another 10 or so runs.

very true and the good thing about this is the low price of many greens.
What's so wrong with them the stats are perfect ok you cannot mod them but so what, if they are the stats you want then no worries.

Gift3d · Nov 14, 2009, 05:52 PM // 17:52
