This is not the economics or "what defines a scam" discussion forum. Please take it somewhere else.

Dwarvern req12 13^50
Serpant req13 14% enchant

10 runs. Easy but slow 200k

So what are the purps that are noted as rare skins from these chest?

So far I found a dead bow, crystalline, krytan axe, magmas arm, serpent axe, dwarven axe and sephis axe.

Took a while to get all these, like over 60 runs. Overall I give this "farming" a rating of not worth it. Its so slow and inconsistent. You can make more doing CR or farming elsewhere. Good for new players that just got NF and Proph to make starting cash.

1, 2, 5 purples respectively from chests. Rarest thing was a 13^50 Krytan Axe. Might be nice on a hero, I suppose, but I've got enough goodies for them.

Today in 7 runs crystalline sword req 10 17% >hexed and Dwarven axe req 9 13^50% a good farming^^

I found that (I know I'm slow) that if you farm that place you won't able to get as much drop as before.
Before I used to get 4-5 drops per Chest now 1-2 "sigh"

Keithark · Jan 24, 2007, 08:01 PM // 20:01

good if you need major vigor runes for hero's or yourself...but takes way too long to get crystalline sword that you could just farm for gold and buy much quicker...the tactic will however work for boss green drops so even better to use it for that and sell the greens to buy the crystalline with

What are considered rare purp drops from these chest?

Thank you in advance for the answers.

w0lla · Jan 25, 2007, 07:51 AM // 07:51

13/14^50 cryst and equivalent dwarven axe would be my guess

Stixxx · Jan 25, 2007, 11:32 AM // 11:32

in 10 runs nothing special for me so far, some runes, couple wands, hand axe,...

I also noticed that in the area where the last chest spawns there is a Miner's chest. I dont know if it always spawns but in 10 runs i got it 5 or 6 times.

Amon Phoenix · Jan 25, 2007, 07:32 PM // 19:32

Just wanted to say thx for posting the run.

Made 3 runs so far.
2 major vigors and a dwarven axe 14^50 req 9, However, it was 6-27 dmg...I wanted to uninstall GW =)

vlein · Jan 25, 2007, 07:41 PM // 19:41

flat bows and stuff are all i get :P

assassin rob · Jan 28, 2007, 10:13 AM // 10:13

Lol yesterday i got from first chest 2 purples

second one: 3 purples
and the last one :5purples

U can make a lot of money with this

QoH · Jan 28, 2007, 02:14 PM // 14:14

so this is why there are plenty crystallines on the auction

glad i farmed this spot before the "flagging" system

dark remover · Jan 28, 2007, 06:41 PM // 18:41

AH, it works great but u realy need loads of luck

ANd some people just dont have luck and never get one of those swords

I did it like 10 times and i had my first purple req 13 13>50 crystalline sword

bad req but still sold it for 100k + 10 ecto's

deluxe · Jan 30, 2007, 12:22 PM // 12:22

my latest weapon set thanks to this farm :P
also had some crystallines, but with shitty mods

The point is that Sorrows Furnace has been out for well over a year, hero flagging has been in the game for nearly six months. If Anet were going to nerf it they'd probably have done so by now. It's not as if 2 - 3k in 30 minutes is all that much more than you could make by spending that 30 minutes doing one of the advanced missions.

Properly said Cynical.

There is such a low chance of getting any of the "rare skinned weapons" that this run isn't worth it in the sense of time. If you need money, it's better to farm an area then it is to do this run.
