Did both of the new quests, didnt take that long. Just ask people in LA and Drok, you'll get all the stuff pretty easily. It's getting the candy cane shards for the candy cane weapons that is slightly more taxing...

The Grawl drop candy cane shards as well as the necklaces you need for the collector.

Outside Frontier Gate.

I also had a shard drop from a gargoyle outside Nolani...went rather well with the black dye I also got! Hooray for farming low-level mobs for their skulls!

Ya it must be luck because I cleaned out that frontier area for shards (droppin grawl); nothing lol, just the usual low lvl armor/weapon drops...

I'll post any updates if I find anything.

EDIT:

Okay I found a shard drop grawl/gargoyle hunting outside of ascalon. So they will drop

the hunting is so easy, and the collectors require so little in the end it doesnt take much effort to find the necessary necklasses/skulls to keep you opening gifts lol... and if u get lucky you'll find a shard drop

Ditto. Right outside D. Seaboard.

Draeco_Smash · Dec 23, 2005, 04:30 AM // 04:30

Ok... so from what I've seen so far in the forums is that... all the shards drop pretty much everywhere, best strategie I can think of would be to kill monsters in an area till you are satisfied, then port to another city and repeat

widds2v · Dec 23, 2005, 04:36 AM // 04:36

where are the collectors that give out the candycane weapons? havnt found em.

Esprit · Dec 23, 2005, 04:47 AM // 04:47

I know there is a collector for Charr Carvings in Ascalon. But where is the one for Grawl Necklaces?

Silent Coyote · Dec 23, 2005, 04:51 AM // 04:51

In Ascalon right next to the one for Charr Carvings, theres a group of them there. As for the candy weapons crafters - theres one in Lions Arch in the merchants area by the cage.

naix · Dec 23, 2005, 04:51 AM // 04:51

I was doing the grenth one where you kill those snowman things and i found they drop rare axes. I got a sickle, tribal axe, and hachet. All mid damage but semi-rare non the less

widds2v · Dec 23, 2005, 04:57 AM // 04:57

just the normal merchants in LA in the merchants area. still looking for the candycane guy.

Fear The Destroyer · Dec 23, 2005, 04:58 AM // 04:58

That's great. I'll work on farming shards ASAP.

Not true, there isn't anyone there to craft weapons from shards.

Zoe · Dec 23, 2005, 05:02 AM // 05:02

The Candysmith is missing from both LA and Droknar's for some reason. And I have 3 versions of Candy Cane Shards; a salvage item version, a version worth 1 gold, and a version worth 10 gold. Has this happened to anyone else? o.O

And to clarify: There /was/ a candysmith at both locations. I talked to both of them.
