Are you logging your ToT results? Well, I am.

During this log nothing changed. Same char, same critters, same place, same technique. I sometimes Discoed the prey to speed up the kill. 1,420 Luck Tamer/Bard with GD.

1st ToT, Legs of Stability -- 10 minutes of killing
2nd ToT, Farmer's Kasa -- 20 minutes of killing
3rd ToT, Pigment -- 51 minutes of killing
4th ToT, Pigment -- 24 minutes of killing

So 4 marties in 105 minutes, 26 minutes per martie.

I checked my bank and I have a Chest of Heirlooms so sometime in there I received another martie. So 5 marties in 105 minutes, 21 minutes per martie!

Please post your ToT logs.

You greedy folks kill me. Every time something like this comes up, you have to chime in with your, "I killed 16 million and only got this, or , I have 278 marties, how many do you have? Go away already...damn. If you want to compare notes, do it in Vent or something. This time tomorrow night they'll be 10 threads exactly like this one...

Could always skip them and not punish yourself in reading them then huh?! Always a pile of cry babies too..

Hrm, I killed kappas (for seeds) and dread spiders this morning and got 3 marties. I think it was about an hour or so. Then late this afternoon I got back and killed succubi in the dojo for about 20-30 minutes and got a flute of renewal. It seemed pretty nice and relaxed, I got some honor gains while doing it and a bit of gold. Probably 30 minutes a drop for someone playing casually and not killing as fast as they can.

I'd make sure to mix up what you kill (high fame and low fame monsters) so you can have the best chance at getting a drop. For me I try to have more than one goal (like getting seeds or whatever) so no matter what I'm making use of my time and don't feel annoyed when 45 minutes have passed but I haven't gotten a drop.

Ive been using a mix of chars. Bard/mage is rocking. Bard/tame great. Newbie swords, 80 in skills, fantastic! Drop rate is crazy. BTW, none of the chars have more then 200 "luck". All mix an match kills. Lil champs, beetles, birds, whatever. The noob sticks close to healers, but his skills are flying!


And this...

Yup. Skip em.

Garth - Some of us appreciate the info. Nothing wrong with comparing notes with other players. Never fear, I'm sure the mods will keep an eye on threads of the same subject.

I've been doing the champ spawn all day, using a Greater Dragon and little else. I've noticed that I'm far less likely to recieve an arti once the spawn hits third level. Killing weak creatures in bulk seems to outweigh killing high-fame creatures slowly.

No one I know has seen the Mempo drop as yet.

 

[Connor_Graham]

I'm averaging 1 every 12 minutes or so (5 per hour), killing the same thing. I'm working mid-low level fame creatures that I can 1-2 shot kill and only have the 95 luck from the luck robe except for the 1 hour that I can use the luck statue.

 

[Dodger]

I like to know as well, thanks connor. Also would like to know what people are killing and where, tips for tamers, melee etc.

 

[deraiky]

Im at the Demon Room at the 2nd Lvl (i think) of the Fan Dancer Dojo as a meelee sampire.
And it really rocks, i 2 hitkill the demons with my Exiler (lol) and they respawn pretty fast..
About 1 Minor every 10-15 mins with 125 luck from storm grip..

Thats pretty much my favourite spot...
But after that comes the room with 2 fan dancers spawning in at lvl 3

Yeah, I'm not noticing much of a difference from luck. I've been mostly killing on my tamer, and I've done some in my normal suit (470ish luck), and some in my luck suit (1100 luck), and haven't noticed a difference in drop rate. But then again, the drop rate for both is pretty brisk, so I'm not complaining.

 

[EnigmaMaitreya]

Who do you turn things into for the Major Artifacts?

 

[Thunderz]

Iv notched up 45 drops in 18 hours, best seems to be tamer with GD just find a decent spawn place and hit hiding

 

[Omnius]

advice like this, is dangerously close to promoting unattended play. I wouldn't make suggestions like this to folks.

 

[Dor of Sonoma]

There's a gentleman who you need to see, upstairs in a building just SW from the Zento bank. I forget the name of the building, as well as the gentleman...but hopefully someone else can fill in the blanks! *grins*

 

[Thunderz]

Why not? in America i think they call it "the bait car"

 

[Farsight]

Getting about 5 per hour if I set my mind to it. Luck or no luck doesn't seem to make a difference since they're dropping so fast.

I've used my archer (no luck) and tamer (1100 luck) and have the same drop rate on both.

But with 24 drops in 6 hours (one of those hours was doing Travesty, no drops there), that isn't really enough for a trend.

"Ihara Soko the Imperial Minister of Trade". Can't miss him with a title like that.

You just walk up to him and the turn-in display appears automatically.

 

[EnigmaMaitreya]

Thanks for the Information going to go locate him now ....

Edit:

Ok, I found him turned in 3 items and now I have 6 more to go to get an item .....

Now you must tell us what you are going to get!

BTW, what is the crowd going for?

 

[Bomb Bloke]

You need to turn in a total of ten, not nine, items to get a major.

I've been aiming for the Swords of Prosperity (200 luck, -0 mage weapon), Rune Beetle Carapace (decent mana related mods) and Kasa of the Rak-In (decent resists with some SDI). The other artis don't really interest me, with the exception of the new Mempo (which you can't really "aim" for - I suppose that'll make it rarer, given it's low drop rate).

 

[Cetric]

hmm, i haven't been doing this long but:

9 dyes
21 minors
2 blackrocks
2 sot scrolls
2 MEMPOS

 

[EnigmaMaitreya]

I would exclusively take the Swords of Prosperity.

 

[Sweety]

I killed fan dancers and headless ones for a little more than 2 hours and got like 6-7 drops ( i think)
First hour it was 1 drop every like 10- 20 minutes then it slowed down to like 1 every half hour

 

[uoBuoY]

Okay...Original Poster here...

Sorry but I didn't think I was complaining or pancakes. In fact I was quite happy with my rate of return! I simply wanted to share my results with everyone else! I am so sorry I offended thee!

night 2...same char same circumstances, same everything...

1st ToT, nunchucks -- 10 minutes of killing
2nd ToT, Fan -- 8 minutes of killing
3rd ToT, Chest -- 42minutes of killing
4th ToT, Black Rock -- 7 minutes of killing
5th ToT, Tetsubo -- 7 minutes of killing
6th ToT, Legs of Stability -- 33 minutes of killing

107 minutes divided by 6 marties = 1 martie per 17.6 minutes
Again...very good results!

Its a game.

If you take it this seriously....take a break..please.
