Prolly the best site for Rangers.

Oh that place. Been a while since i've heard anyone mention it.

I'm not surprised either... Some of its incomplete. Some of its not even correct. Its been a long, long time since Damage Reduction on Warriors effected everything, including armour ignoring skills, but yet its still listed on the site.

Well no gold drops but not only is this an easy farm one of the items drops caught my eye, check out the screenshoot, I'll give you a hint, it starts with an F and ends with a blade

Now a gold one of those would be worth having. and at least 2 whites dropped in my first run.

Yeah if you get lucky with the Aegis' a Rit can drop a whole mob in 3 Barrages. Doesn't take you very long using the build listed. I run 0 Marksmanship because theres not really any point. What Splinter/EoE doesn't kill, either Nightmare Weapon finishes off or there was never any hope to begin with.

Think in the 5 or 6 runs i've done i've had 3 gold Margonite Armours/Tunics/Robes drop. Its not too bad if you want Silk, Linen or Leather, i usually just salvage all white armour, salvage any decent runes/insig on my ranger and merch the rest. The onlu really valuable things its gained me so far is 1 White Dye and a Major Vigour.

DvM · Apr 13, 2007, 05:32 AM // 05:32

in quite a few runs, i've gottan a LOT of golden runes, some crap some decent, 2 monk ones, a major vigor. Also ALOT of minor runes and insignias, which adds up quite alot.

I also have 2 stacks of marognite masks

working on third ^_^

Krazi Bastid · Apr 13, 2007, 05:27 PM // 17:27

heres a pic of the protect the learned spot. when they all settle down, the west group has approx 28-30 dudes, and the east group will have 32-34. also, where they spawn also always spawns a vabbi chest.

Check out the trader that collects these. He has a -5 +30 shield, I was finally able to pimp out all my Koss's, like 8 of them

EDIT:

Btw that above screen looks nice, did you kill them all? I noticed theres no clerics, that could make the run go fairly smooth.

onerabbit · Apr 13, 2007, 05:51 PM // 17:51

getting the quest now for it, looks awsome!

oh and there 1 cleric

*Edit*

Takes a while 2 set up, you ave 2 speak to 8 ppl in the Hall, then aggro the 1st lot, wait for them to settle then agrro the second lot, then kill them, if u want the chest u have 2 run back to the enterance of the halls -_-

Heres what i got

Evilsod · Apr 13, 2007, 07:48 PM // 19:48

I don't remember doing that quest...

Doesn't look particularly quick to set up, you'd probably be faster clearing out the Turai's quest. Although there is definatly the bonus that theres no boss lieing in wait to kick your ass when you come to collect the remaining drops.

DvM · Apr 13, 2007, 08:42 PM // 20:42

Could someone maybe elaborate on how to get all those margonites to spawn? tryed it a few times and I only have 1 group coming each time.

nevermind, found out myself, farm is kinda boring though, takes long to set up, maybe you could do it way faster duo, but still...

Ghostly Wayz · Apr 13, 2007, 09:03 PM // 21:03

I picked up the quest and only had one group spawn and the group was made up of only 5 margonites. If someone could please explain how to get them all in one spot that would be really helpful. I would also like to know if anybody has compared this farm to the Turai farm in terms of which is more profitable considering the amount of time it takes to do each run. Thanks in advance.

onerabbit · Apr 13, 2007, 09:16 PM // 21:16

go right out, back wereu came in, theres a portal..

ur see

Issac · Apr 13, 2007, 09:39 PM // 21:39

Is the last of the breed quest the final quest u get from Mizr becuase im pretty srue I haven't done the quest with all the magornites and i completed the game with and did the centeur concerns.

Evilsod · Apr 13, 2007, 09:59 PM // 21:59

Its bugged. I had a look on the wiki discussion about it. When you complete Centaur Concerns he won't give you the next quest. If you go back to town and come back to him the next quest activates even without you having it. Just take it then while the quest dialog is running, finish the quest and carry on.

Krazi Bastid · Apr 13, 2007, 10:35 PM // 22:35

the protect the learned quest takes long to set up yeah. the whole quest takes like maybe 10min to do. lol like a <2min to run there then maybe <5 minutes to set up then <2min to pwn them all. this is jus a secondary option if u messed up on the turai quest and accepted the reward. wat i do is talk to the scholars in clockwise so i end up back at the beginning after the last scholar, then i go near the portal and see them all spawn and jus chill out somehwere, let them pass me. then i get the chest. then jus walk near enough to either side so u see their red dots on ur minimap. thats enough to make them go forward. if u see the scholars droppin fast, then they came in force. if they drop slow, then only a few attacked.

side note - maybe its jus my luck but im getting better drops here. my best drop at turai was a couple sup scythe runes and like 10 radiant insigs (but those are kind of decent value now) in a lil over 10 runs. here in halls, ive gotten perfect req 9 zealous enchant scythe, sup vig, 20/20sunder sword/bow and couple of decent insciptions.

onerabbit · Apr 13, 2007, 11:36 PM // 23:36

ive noticed better drops in the halls to, 2 runs ( got bored after xD)
3 golds
4 purples
31 masks
2.5k in drops each run (not inc masks)

Evilsod · Apr 14, 2007, 12:29 PM // 12:29

Thats probably because nobody else is farming it yet.

Once i empty my inventory of a ton of crap from an alliance easter event.. i'll try the Learned quest on my ranger. Until then, full invetory sucks.

Evilsod · Apr 14, 2007, 11:55 PM // 23:55

I had a quick go earlier. My drops were absolutely awful... but it was only 1 try so... can't win em all.

Took a while to setup. But that'd probably get faster and faster as i got use to the locations of the Scholars rather than following the useless quest pointer. Once the Margonites settled though both mobs died in 3 Barrages each (even with a Ranger). Whether there are more enemies there or not is questionable... so is whether its faster or not. But since theres no Torment Weaver ther was no infernal boss to survive and kill you (i would check it using a high level EoE... but i did Turai's quest earlier).

Dragonious · Apr 15, 2007, 04:46 AM // 04:46

People farming in the same area has no effect on the drops btw. And my very first run I got 2 gols. Ty for the new farm spot. :-) It helps with anti-farming code to spread out the love.

DvM · Apr 23, 2007, 03:27 PM // 15:27

tested, works on HM
