TriPle 6 Mafia · Sep 04, 2007, 03:13 AM // 03:13

i just came back from along time ago and only have prophecies but am planning on buying a another soon. my question is.. are griffins and mountain trolls still the best thing to farm in prophecies or is there something better?

Griffions are no more, but you can still farm trolls. Hydra farming has also become popular.

I've always farmed Hydra.

You have to farm in Hard Mode to get any sort of profit. Normal mode farming is just not worth it anymore.

What do Hydras drop that you want to farm?

Actually you can still farm griffons outside Divine Reach.

Merch junk - they are a fairly easy consistent GPH in hard mode. Basically the same thing you wanted to farm from trolls, vermin, and 99.9% of the other farms.

For the most part the same builds that work in NM work in HM with minor tweaks. I also find it one of the best combinations of EXP and GPH in the game for someone looking for their skill hunter title that needs both skill points and gold to get it.

Hate to say it,

but farming is pretty dead. If you have HM, you can dual smite farm the undead outside of Bergen Hot Springs, which is reasonably decent cash.
