Sheesh, these things are rarer than Rocking Horse poo. 600/smite and eventually got 10 just clearing the first room.

I made a hybrid 600/smite solo build that works well in NM, survives in HM but does not kill fast enough for me:
Mo/x Smiting 12+1+3 Protection 12+3 AL15 - radiant/attune hp - about 430 or so, weapon- caster axe and +27e (12e+15e/-1) off-hand Protective Spirt Spirit Bond [Ray of Judgement] Ebon Vanguard Sin Support Finish Him! Retribution Balthazar's Spirit Essence Bond My ebon and norn titles are r1 and it works fine, but if you don't have pve only skills, switch out for scourge healing and scourge enchantment which i've tested and it works too Target ethers first and be sure you cast sb just before engaging them in case they get e-surge off otherwise just jesus beam the sapphs with finish him! to, well, finish him! and then sin support to mop up Last edited by gw_poster; Jun 17, 2009 at 03:57 PM // 15:57.. |

I got mine yesterday, and I did pretty well. I got another keg of aged hunter's ale and an everlasting crate of fireworks among some other stuff.

I tried this last night using H/H because drops are supposedly the same. I had the quest active and cleared the first room at least 10 times. I got ZERO essences to drop, not even from the Ruby or Diamond Djins. The only thing they ever dropped was 30-35 piles of Glittering Dust.
 I use my ele because my Sin doesn't have the EOTN skills. Any solo builds that an ele with all skills can use here? |

So I figured - hardest drop to farm yet, presents are going to be really worth it this time, right?
Wrong. /sigh. At least I learned something - I really suck at 600/smite. No idea what I was doing wrong. Ended up just running the same ol' hydra 55 build from a couple of weeks ago - did the trick.

Not sure why people are having problems farming these, took 5 runs through first room of hidden city with Perma Sin and sliver.
Got nothing good from the gifts though as per normal

Happy camper here, made a fortune last days. My main as 800 monk (600 is too slow) together with my second account as smite support. 100% drop rate and cry of pain went through those djinns as a hot knife through butter, way better than 'Finish him'. 16 minutes a run (HM) to clear the two big squares (apart from starting square) resulting in 2-6 drops each run. Reminded me of UW pre nerfs. Btw, the Sapphire Djinn dervish boss might drop 2 essences when killed.

I ended up solo farming old school with my warrior West of Bone Palace. Used Defy pain with Ripostes and Healing Signet (lol) and got the 5 in about an hour. Alot more fun than perma too.
