Curse

shoyon456 · Jun 23, 2009, 05:03 AM // 05:03

I'm currently working on finishing my kurzick title, and then will need to max party to get GWAMM.

I expect to finish my kurzick title within 2 weeks, and will need to start farming to get the money for party points.

My question is, what is the best farm nowadays?
Is UW still still viable or effecient? Smites AND plains?
What build(s)?

stipulations:
I don't do runs

I prefer solo farms

I'd prefer to stay out of the great reskin of the north

The last time I farmed seriously, my rit was setup to farm smites with VwK and dual visage, my monk was a 55 (modified now to smiter for kurz dsc which im doing alot of for maxing my kurz title), and my ele was running sandstorm smite solo, and I did HAVE to make my sin into a perma when the plains were big after the SF buff last year.

*Similar question*

I know the dragon festival comes around the 4th of July, is there any spectacular way of obtaining mass amounts of victory tokens during this event to use on party items? Short of just buying them all?

PS: I have a little more than 5,000 party points left

Thank you!

*edit* and oh yeah, after sweet tooth and drunk, im broke ^^

Just farm Raptors, if you can. If not, there's always Skrees with the quest "desperate measures" outside Tihark.

If you have good self control, farm the money. Since you have no money, and you hate dungeon running, well, sucks?

Snowman for you.

I can grind farm, I think i've made that clear in the reference to dsc.
The point of this thread is to find out WHICH farm/combination would be the most effecient to get money for party items or simply party items.

I'm certain that it would be more effecient to farm the money over a few items every 10 mins, but I really would like to know which one that falls within the categories. If you can make a strong case for a farm in eotn, then it may sway me.

I would just pull out some kinda Sliver build for Assassin or Elementalist and goto town on those Raptors - That's what I plan on doing.

Go do some DoA. Its a brace about every 3 runs on average, and thats 45e in about 3-4 hours of work. Which in turn ends up being quite a bit of Party Points.

You didn't, but hey.

They way I completed my Party Title (from 5k to 10k in the double faction weekend) was by borrowing _a lot_ of money from someone that trusted me, and knew I would pay the money back eventually. Now I'm slowly getting the money by selling the ZKeys from the predictions every week, without the need of farming.

If you don't know someone who can lend you that amount of money, disregard my post

easy way out ftw (oh and z-key predictions are monthly - oh, and XTH has been closed "temporarily")

either way you are going to have to pay back that money...so the question of the OP remains. At the OP, I am in almost the exact same boat as you (kurz/swt/party left) and have been struggling with the same issue. I'm a ranger main which makes it even harder as most of my other char's haven't been to the main farm spots, don't have skills, etc. What I've settled on is basically giving up on id/wisdom titles, so I've stopped buying lockipicks which has saved me a considerable amount of money. I feather farm when I get sick of faction grinding, and I'm always on the lookout for deals in LA/Spamadan especially on mysterious tonics, which amazingly a lot of people still don't realize are worth 5 party pts each (been buying a lot for 400-500g per).

Also, if you aren't in a huge hurry - start farming/collecting decayed orr emblems or other halloween collectibles so you will be set to cash in and finish you party at halloween, which is only a few short months away. Deldrimor steel is an easy way to double your investment, assuming you farm the charcoal and iron (you can buy the materials, but you severely cut the return on investment), even when sold back to the trader. If you've got a guild that gvg's that is an awesome way to make z-keys (assuming you win sometimes and actually sell the keys) when the z-combat is available.

Other than these ideas, I've just learned to be patient. Good luck.

if i recall the dragon festival has a set of quests which are easy and quick for a level 20 char. they net you about 240 victory tokens. do these on enough chars and you can do quite a bit of a chunk of party thats what i did last year on my main and and it didnt take long after that to get top title party
