55 Ne/Mo Luxon Side and 2 Nephui Bosses
The Screenshot below is me any my setup and attributes.This is taken from the Mt.Qinkai area inside Aspenwood.There are 2 Bosses I have found here that can be farmed for Greens.They would be Chehbaba's Longbow and Spiriteater.I cant remember the exact name of the Spiriteater Boss atm sorry.
You'll basically only need to load your generic 55 setup which is as follows:
(*note: I like to use the skills in this exact order for number crunching eq,1,2,3 when casting)
1:Healing Breeze
2:Protective Spirit
3:Vig Spirit/Orison of Healing
4:Spiteful Spirit
5:Insidious Parasite
6:Balts Spirit
7:Mending
8:Essence Bond
(certain abbreviations of skills are PS=Protective Spirit,HB=Healing Breeze,SS=Spiteful Spirit)
So get your Mending,Essence Bond and Balts Spirit up.Head up the route above.You'll encounter 2 Yeti first.Easy stuff,stay back a little (out of trap harm) SS and Parasite.Continue up the hill and you'll see your first Boss.Theres no real trick to killing him,just leave the Yeti mob to keep attacking you,PS and HB up always and SS and Parasite boss.Green Longbows will flow.Make sure you wait for traps to go off before running in when you see a Green drop "yoink!"..Ok well you can continue to the next boss (which is just down the path),the +2 morale wont do anything major,you can take another boss.
You'll see the next one just down the way a bit (he'll be up on a little rise, how lucky),target him,make sure he can HIT you,SS and Parasite him.Once and a while a yeti or 2 will run down and pummel you a little,just let them.You'll get the Green Spiriteater.
Theres tons of Yeti in Mt. Qinkai,,just be aware of a couple things.First, there are Rot Wallows and Island Guardians around,you can avoid them (recommended) or you can run.As I've said before Rot Wallows and Island Guardians are uber hard and you are well advised not to try and 55 them.There is also a few Oni spawn points,if you follow the route I've shown above you won't hit any,Onis = Death.Theres also a monk Yeti Boss a little farther down, he expels hexes and I havent been able to take him down.
Ive also been hearing of the Warrior farming of Sskai for the nice green sword he drops,well being curious I decided to see what this guy can do.After a few skill changes and many deaths I've found a surefire way of soloing Sskai,I've tried it a few times now and it truly does work.Ok this'll take some 'splainin.
First the Skill List:
1:Healing Breeze
2:Protective Spirit
3:Soul Barbs
4:Spiteful Spirit
5:Parastic Bond
6:Balts Spirit
7:Mending
8:Essence Bond
Now heres the deal.First the route is as follows:
Make sure you avoid the Kraken and 2 Oni Spawn points,pretty easy to do.
Basically you really only want Ritualists and Sskai left alive..heres why.The Warriors will hit you with Disrupt and the Archers will hit you with Concussion.you can get away with leaving the archers alive and not have them hit you by using the middle rock section as a barrier.The warriors you want dead though.Take them out with SS,and make sure your PS and HB are always up,you will be interrupted.Once you have the warriors dead you'll want to position yourself where ritualists will still be able to hit you , yet archers can't,(sounds hard to do but it's not.)Make sure you keep an eye out for stray Kraken (theres only 2 that float around there).
Ok so now you've got Sskai pummeling you and Ritualists attacking you (they are for a constant energy gain).Target Ssaki,watch the spells he casts,use Parasitic Bond to pull out Disrupt,then comes the fun part,cast Soul Barbs on him,Cast SS on him and SPAM Parasitic Bond on him (why?) after Soul Barbs is on him,every hex thats cast on him will cause 31 dmg,spamming Parasitic costs 5 energy so hitting with SS and Parasitic will cause 37+31+(8-15 wand),He heals fast and will disrupt,make sure you save enough for PS though.Keep cycling this pattern and he will go down.You can slide by without putting up HB for a while,just make sure you have enough energy for PS.(*note it will take a while so if you arent patient,dont attempt)
The Nephui Quarter Mission is also an area I like to hit,and I've posted briefly on this farm.so heres the screens and breakdown.
Tahmu is the Dragon Boss,he hits with some serious Lightning knockdown damage.You'll basically want to target him ONLY.If there are any Star lights near him,kill them FIRST,pull them out and crush them.Leave you attackers alone as they supply your energy,Archers and Blades are fine to leave attacking you.Target Tahmu,watch for the knockdown(yes you'll be knocked down),and just cycle Insidious Parasite and Spiteful Spirit on him,wand.The Essences will appear when he dies so be aware,normally 2 in a group after main Boss goes down.
The Second Boss you can take down is Hai Jii.You gotta be careful with this Boss because he uses Conjure Phantasm which will hit you for -5 hp degen so MAKE SURE you have PS,HB going Before you run in and attack him,hit a Blade with Parasite FIRST and Begin SS and Parasiting Hai Jii,just make sure youre hitting with Parasite and HB is running and you'll be fine,a good alternative is to bring Orison of Healing along in slot 3.Nice for that "zomg im gonna die" moment.
I've tried various 3rd slot spells like Signets,Vig Spirit,Orison and so on,its really up to you,just keep the main skills and you'll be good to go.
Happy Hunting...yea i know Quarter Mission isn't Luxon side..just tossin it in.
