Here is how I farm these monoliths. I use E/A FOW Solo build someone posted here and bring heroes + hench to fight all the way to the temple. Flag them away and just use the FOW solo tactic to kill monoliths slowly. Its slow but very easy. Drops have been not very good but you are guaranteed to get the Sword if it ever drops.

hmm.... well, the problem is that they cause 11 degen, so enchantments are the way to go, but they also strip enchantments... maybe a shadow form fire nuker? so no spells or attacks get through

I think i can surmise from that pic that she got it from the chest in that pic,although it doesnt mean it couldnt be from that chest either.You should have gotten a better screenshot of it showing what dropped it.

EDIT:Looking closer at that pic,looks like the chest was near the Sandstorm boss and you were chest running with either an assassin or war.

Actually you're 100% right lol

I put it in this thread as a tease i'm cruel I know!

I got it about hmmm 6 months ago in the posioned outcrops, the Sandstorm Stone Shard boss was sitting directly on top of the chest.

If you look closely you can actually see me lying there undernearth the Stone Shard crag lol (upper right hand corner)

EDIT:Oh and stuff is blackened out because they are pm's and swearing, little surprised

I've been farming the monolith temple with show of force active for 4-5 runs, pretty poor drops though. For killing over 300 monoliths, bestI got was +30 for axe and Black dye. Maybe around 5-10 gods total, in Hardmode. The drops are very poor for this area IMO.
