Red face Worst Farm Ever?!?!

I just saw bog boy's thread on "what's the best farm you've had in one run?" and it got me thinking about those horrible, redundent, LONG farms everyone has done and gotten next to nothing in return. So the question is, "what is the worst farm run you have ever been on?"

My personal WORST: Took an almost all noob group into tombs when it was first patched in... took over 3 hours to finish and in the end Darkness dropped his best greens but NONE for me... ended up with about 2k in merch including a crap gold raven staff!!! :P

This just shows randomness. Three of my guildies went into SF with 5 henchies, and killed 2 bosses (Thorgall outside before going in, and Bortak inside) and both dropped a green for one of our human players >_<

In the Deep, back when it was new and Zodiacs sold for tons of gold.

One run from chests 2 wayward wands and 2 straw effigys

I got a gold drop from a monster, which was of course, a wayward wand.

failed at the end so no green, 6k and over 2 hours gone.

i remember a while ago, in Shing Jea, i helped a newbie out with a quest with my lvl 20 barrager, he was lvl 2 ele, i got.... 2 very, very basic drops, even by Shing Jea standards, and he got about... 15-16 i think, one of them purple, and most of them average-good for Shing Jea

i was kind of annoyed, because he'd basically spent his time dying :S

incidentally, quite a few of the posts before me have been off topic, such as the one's about "how do you solo farm UW with a warrior", it's hardly related to worst farming run, is it?

Wow all these really horrid 20 minutes Smite runs yielding nothing... i feel so sorry for you.... not.

Around christmas, the time of Candy Cane Shards. Cleared 3/4 of FoW on my monk, 1 warrior who had never been FoW before got 8 shards. I got 2 candy cane shards. Some ****ing reward.
