hakon · May 18, 2008, 02:09 AM // 02:09

this may be the wrong form but im new to this and my question is stated above.i have done at least 500 runs with a sin/ele build on hm and never got one

End · May 18, 2008, 02:12 AM // 02:12

They do wish I had a screenie to prove it but I haven't got any. But yes they do I used to farm them.

deluxe · May 18, 2008, 02:13 AM // 02:13

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

NoXiFy · May 18, 2008, 02:14 AM // 02:14

Everything is worthless pretty much.

I Can Cure Cancer · May 18, 2008, 02:16 AM // 02:16

yes, but droprates aren't that good so it'll take awhile before you get one.

Koricen · May 18, 2008, 02:18 AM // 02:18

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.

greyhawk · May 18, 2008, 02:29 AM // 02:29

i got a q5 ele sword non max damage of course on NM farming Party animal items few events ago.

SimonTheMaster · May 18, 2008, 02:38 AM // 02:38

I got 2 of these in about 500 runs as well... Raptor farm is a quick farm that do not require to waste 30 min trying to set-up a team... U can also get a lot of black and whyte dye along with some gold weapons u can sell for 700-1000g to people for wisdom title.

TrippieHippie89 · May 18, 2008, 02:40 AM // 02:40

dont believe them

raptors dont drop ele swords

its all a lie

oswald didnt act alone

elvis and tupac are still alive, and they're gay lovers

we have never been to the moon

and above all

Jesus was black, ronald regan was the devil, and the government is lying about 9/11, thank you for your time, goodnight

Midnight Harmony · May 18, 2008, 02:41 AM // 02:41

I've had req 9,11 and 12 max Elemental Swords drop from Raptors in HM.

Lord Xivor · May 18, 2008, 02:41 AM // 02:41

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.

Mr. Undisclosed · May 18, 2008, 02:43 AM // 02:43

lol no, all those people are lieing when they say that they do.

Hexum · May 18, 2008, 02:47 AM // 02:47

I farmed the hell out of them for a few days in a row and ended up with a req 9, 10, 11 and 12. All in HM

thesupersaver · May 18, 2008, 02:56 AM // 02:56

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.

GaaaaaH · May 18, 2008, 03:13 AM // 03:13

they still have SOME value, i sold a r12 for 13k a few days ago

Haodu · May 18, 2008, 03:31 AM // 03:31

I've only had 1 drop for me, and it was req13...

ectos taste nasty · May 18, 2008, 03:35 AM // 03:35

the ele sword is a lie

Aneres · May 18, 2008, 03:42 AM // 03:42

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.

Shakti · May 18, 2008, 03:43 AM // 03:43

Yes. HM nestling dropped a req 9 for me a couple weeks ago.
