ibex333, don't you have a problem with Aegis? Or do you wait till it runs out?

Second, ANet wont nerf it. The drops have already been nerfed, and it has no need for nerfing more than your standard 55 monk. I don't understand how you can get that many golds :S. My record also stands at 5 golds, but nowadays, I'm lucky if I get a gold in less than two runs.

concerning Aegis... It usually runs out when I run to those rocks you mentioned and back. Also my bow does very nice damage and kills quite well. There are times when after some killing, 2-3 executioners are left. At that point I have to restart because there's no way I can counter their sig.

As for drops, again it has to do with how fast they drop. It's like in Luxon Assasin farm. If you kill them 3-4 at a time you get about 1-2 golds a run(mostly crap, since it was nerfed to hell). If u pop them all at once, you get nothing. (for the most part)

The person that posted the first vid on YouTube suggests doing "Destroy the Ungrateful Slaves , out of bone palace" if you've already completed Battle of Turai's Procession.

some interesting findings....

1)Primal Echos is a no no. The drops go down to almost nothing.

2)Killing margs without spirits yields more drops by far. Yes it is much longer and more annoying. Sometimes you cant even complete the run because of it.

3)The combo of FW, PS and EoE gives a nice gold drop rate, but decreases grapes, whites and blue to almost nothing.

4)Using only 2 spirits (PS and EoE) instead of 3, also yields better drops for me than with 3.

Not sure if I've just been lucky but.... I gotta say the Luxon Sin farm is gotta be one of the best farms for golds .... I get at least 1 gold drop each run... and its very common for me to get multiple golds each run. Plus if the Sins dont drop a gold there is usually a chest. For example.... last night.... made 3 runs in a row... 1st run got nothing good from Sins but there was a Locked Chest which I got an elite war tome. 2nd run... got req9 Dirks (worth nothing) and a Sup Rune. 3rd run... got 2 Sup Runes.

Now the drops usually arent worth anything (unless you get a Platinum drop, which I havent yet) or their a Sup Rune... but I get golds there like crazy!

FWIW... I've been farming this spot hard for about 2 months now. I've noticed that you get more gold drops when you take out 1 or 2 groups at a time. Taking on all the groups at once hasnt given me that many golds.

It's funny, because in the beginneng with HM I did it exactly like this, and the drops were great. My methods haven't changed, but I still get less golds per run, and it really bugs me.
