spent prolly 15 hrs farming over the weekend.

Results: 555 ales, 557 clovers, 2 ele swords, around 100 other golds, enough mats for 4 sets of cons and 50kish.

Yea, I'm the green guy...also had 27 green dyes drop. Believe it or not, idc.

That doesnt sound too good dude. I assume you were doing this as an Elementalist?
I spent about 11 hours and got 766 ales and 801 clovers. No elemental swords whatsoever but about 200-300 golds. How long does one of your runs take?

nah, I was a w/rt, so I missed out on the hatchlings by the boss each run (1-2 mins).

My total farming time estimate was likely high and the gold total was conservative, but I agree ele gets more event drops from the raptors.

According to your prediction you should have gotten 4400 items

Say what? What "prediction" ?
That was how many items I got and the approxomate time I spent on farming.

Lets say you get 10 event items per run (just to make the countings easier). You would get 400 items in one hour, and 4700 in a day (for no-lifers, such as me lmao), plus additional golds/tomes.

This prediction.

I've been using this build for months.

OgVDMayMSRAfVlCmALD8Q4goAA

[skill]Mantra of Resolve[/skill][skill]Stoneflesh Aura[/skill][skill]Armor of Earth[/skill][skill]Channeling[/skill][skill]Glyph of Renewal[/skill][skill]Sliver Armor[/skill][skill]Intensity[/skill][skill]Ether Feast[/skill]

Keep the first four up at all times, go round up the raptors, glyph sliver as you aggro the boss group then hit ether feast when the boss bites you to stay alive. Run takes about 90 seconds and kills everything in hard mode.

Main thing is always use a spear with 20% ench and +5 energy as you can easily aggro back the raptors or the boss when they move away. I wish gold spears dropped in the cave cos you could make a fortune in Rata Sum selling them to all the sword wielding nub ele's lol. I use [wiki]Spirit of the Forgotten[/wiki] and the Bison Cup but ideally you'd want a [wiki]Peppermint Spear[/wiki] from Wintersday for the consistent damage.
