No im not complaining about the prices(although i do feel they are high)

Im just curious - what is you record kills there and what route do u take? For me personally I have gotten two berries from killing 12 on average (CLOSE TO THREE ONCE with 14).

I'm not gonna lie, I struggle with this quest a lot. Mainly because I can't tell toma when to eat foes. the skill says no recharge yet he acts like it has one and i try not to kill so fast so he can munch, I get 8 on average >_>

Thanks to a guildie, using his method i get 10-13 kills per run.

With sabsway minus the minion bomber, so just masters (curser) and livia (healer)
And then i pop the spawns of mandragors one by one heading over to the little garden patch where bugs pop up. You don't deal, just simply call the target toma is attacking.

I get 15-16 on average with my highest being 19. I've also made some good cash off this so far.

Swift Thief · May 04, 2009, 10:03 PM // 22:03

BiP team = 3-4 berries per run

Guildie got me my 15 berries as soon as I logged on today. So my advice is, have helpful guildies.

normally get 10 then run back, if i tried i would end up with 14 so not worth it in my opinion.

Just me (ele) and 3 monks, i just use one or 2 aoe spells and then just let toma run around.

path is middle door 2 popups, then to the bridge 2 more popups then head over too the fenced area, there is one more popup on the way to the fenced area, at the fenced get to 10 then leave.

14ace14 · May 04, 2009, 10:46 PM // 22:46

Highest i've gotten is 17.

bladeturner · May 04, 2009, 11:22 PM // 23:22

take 2 MM heroes with minions, jagged, Verata's Aura, Conteplation of Purity and Resurect. Take 1 hero of any class with necro secondary and a 55 setup with BiP. Move over to the quest giver:

1.) Have the 55 sac to death
2.) MMs with rez and raise minions.
3.) Once you have 20 minions, have the MMs cast Aura and then CoP (micro these)
4.) I go monk secondary and bond the creature.
5.) Stand out of the way while he eats minions.
6.) He should eat 6-11 in 1min 20 secs.
7.) Get up the MMs if they died and repeat before the quest expires.
8.) You can get 15 to 20+ this way without ever leaving the village.

Used pretty much the same path for 2 berries, wasn't aware you could get more than that when I was doing it with a monk and sin hero and me as a mb ele. Got 15 in no time anyway.

I've been using windborne speed to speed Toma up. Helps.

Same. I was able to get a full 15 berries in under an hour, and I think my best run got me somewhere around 11 or 12 snacks for Toma.

MithranArkanere · May 05, 2009, 01:41 AM // 01:41

I bring only degens and healing, and attack the enemies until they are around 33% HP.

Never got over 20. Usually 2..3 berry branches.

I want my juju berrie drink

Asimo · May 05, 2009, 02:13 AM // 02:13

Don't make the mistake of having a full inventory! ><
Didn't realise, went to accept reward and couldn't receive the Berries. Dropped an item, but couldn't re-accept the reward.

Dzjudz · May 05, 2009, 02:25 AM // 02:25

Got to 19 twice, that little bugger just won't chomp down my minions faster!

setup:
Healer (me, E/Mo with [Word of Healing][Healing Breeze] etc to keep myself and MMs alive)
BiP necro hero (blood 12; [Blood is Power]): keep saccing him manually
2x Minion necro hero (death 12, soul reaping 12; [Animate Bone Minions][Verata's Aura][Contemplation of Purity][Resurrect][Aura of the Lich]): manually control verata's and contemplation.

I've sold quite a few berries in packs of 15 for 15-20k.

I'd like a screenie of anyone saying they got 20. Man is Toma a slow eater!

I tried that. I was lucky to get him to eat 5 minions that way...

Jensy · May 05, 2009, 03:19 AM // 03:19

Followed what bladeturner posted. Highest kills was 19 with minions, the timer just runs out before 20. Meh.

Managed to get all 45 branches I need for my accounts easily.

glacialphoenix · May 05, 2009, 03:40 AM // 03:40

I think it helps a little if you flag them a bit away from Chuno - he won't move past Chuno, so if you flag too close to the guy and the minions run behind him, Toma won't follow.

And yes, he's a slow eater... sometimes he just stands there and waits despite me having 6 minions in front of him.

I personally went Mo/N and BiPped myself to death, Olias as N/Rt healer with Flesh of my Flesh, Livia and MoW as MMs. Didn't get 15, though. Ah well.

N8DOGG · May 05, 2009, 03:45 AM // 03:45

are the minions still under your control? or are they from a MM that has died?

Also On my Main War, Toma is a no show hasnt been here in a while. Any suggestions?

I'd tried this a bit on my Derv shes can get to toma but no luck with his eating of minions yet....lol

TY
