Mesmer problem after Droknar's Forge - Guild Wars Forums

NoseJob · Jul 12, 2005, 08:51 PM // 20:51

I'm a Me/El and running into a huge problem at Droknar's.
Before Droknar's I got a pretty decent purple/gold drop rate and as of such, making some decent money. Now after Ascension my drops have dropped (no pun intended) down to almost nothing and I'm in some serious trouble with my bankaccount.
I'm a Me/El so I'm not dropping (again no pun intended) giants ten at a time and a group may even be harder to find.
So here's my question: How on earth am I going to make money for my new armor!?!?

Thanks in advance, NJ.

you go make a warrior/whatever, level him up a bit, farm with him then transfer your money via storage

The probably only way to farm as a mesmer is in its secondary classes. You might go monk or Elementalist just for the purpose of farming. As all skills a mesmer could use for farming are enchantments.
And as we all know... a mob WITHOUT Enchantment Removal is uber rare. And if it does not spam thousands of enchantment removals it is spamming interrupts. Yay for the nerfing.

It's not nice to call people names.

But yeah, theres a 'how to make money' thread still on the first page... don't even need to use search, just take a glance.

This is not really a "how to make money" question.
I was just curious about the drops diminishing while the prices go up at high speed. I thought maybe I was unlucky.

Thanks for the info about making a new class though, that should be pretty helpfull may the time arise.
And for the stupid reply MCS: Don't reply if you've got nothing interesting to say. THANKS

Your party size went from 6 to 8. Hence, a drop in the drop rate as it's divided by 8 now...assuming you take a full party. Don't take the full party size, and you should be fine. Alesia, Lina, and Stefan should suit you for allot of areas without too much trouble if you're carefull and work that elementalists side you have, especially with fast cast and arcane echo + AOE.

I was just referring to the... moron... who did all but reply with "Search". And for this person, Moron is justified.

About the Drop Situation... i got no clue how the system works at all. If it is random, the random mechanism REAAAAALLY hates me. As i got one gold item on my mesmer while completing the game storymode and a total of one purple item on my monk who is now at hells precipice.
I dunno what i am doing wrong but i never ever get decent drops at all. So i have to make up with excessive farming at other places... which now get nerfed more and more and more. -.-
