I agree. And sorry to say, but it starts to get really boring for me.
I been trading in for 5 presents each week ever since this thing started,
and so far the only things I got were the candies, poppers, disco balls.
Of the valuable items, I only got two vamp dragon swords. Those are nice too,
but I want a Gwen doll minipet. How many more weeks must I farm like a dumb slave to get what I want?

Thanks for the derv run tip, Avalanche.
I'll try that right away.

I'm dreading Truffles week even more. At most there are like 10 Fungal Wallows in any given zone, and they're always spread out across the entire map. I've gotten a total of 3 Truffles in dozens of hours in the Echovald forest.

Wow, so the drop rate in Fahranur must be reasonable. That's encouraging.

Hmmm, I'm going to pass this week. I have better things to do in game than run around trying to farm water djinn essence. I always get the same old gifts anyway, variations on mysterious summoning stones, booze, candy and potions or worse bottle rockets and party poppers. So unless it's a pretty easy farm, I'm just not interested.

Where in the first city are they located? All I'm finding is restless dead and skree fledglings...

Farmed 5 just fine outside GoD in Turai's using standard spirit spammer + sin support for the annoying immolated djinn and kournan priests/paras.

The djinn in Fahranur are in the watery pit area where you normally fight the apopcrypha in the Jokanur mission. Just follow the same mission 'path' in the zone, and you'll get down there pretty quickly. There's only 4 though, so it seemed (and was) quicker sweep around Turai's. Whatever works though \o_O/

Just finished my farming. Got 5 for myself and 5 for a friend, took me about 80 minutes in the first city.

Maybe not the most annoying ever, but certainly boring to run 2 full minutes non stop to then only find about 4 enemies and mostly they dropped 0. :/

Run all the way to the end. Kill djiinns (4 of them I think) with spirits 2-3min, repeat. At least 1 essence per run.
