First two bosses only, that's all adroit and mercurial items.

- Pally: Ekydus
- Blocker: Kolmor (me)
- Ice Wizz:
- Fop Cleric:
- Cleric:
- (2nd Icer):
- (2nd Blocker):
- (Alternative pally):

We can possibly get a fop cleric, blocker and second cleric from guild at the time, but anyone who signs up here first is guaranteed a spot, the current pally can play cleric if another sheild pally signs up. FOP on the second cleric is preferred though not vital.

If we have the necessary classes by 7:30 gmt then I will have BG on komor by 7:50 GMT, meet underground forest excalibur.

All lotto will be FFA, roll to win then pick one item etc.

Do your homework.

First five named mobs drop jewelry items in random order. That's one of each from str/dex/con/qui/acu. And depending on luck you either get it as cloak/necklace/bracer/ring/belt/gem.

Wrong. Each of the mobs have specific drop tables, check alazkazam.

Ok, cancelling farm due to lack of ice wizards, I may try again early next week.

well this next week, depending, i can do it with cleric or blocker.
fyi, body debuff groups work awesomely if everybody assists.
1 or 2 pallys to hold aggro, then 3 or 4 body nukers with debuff to pwn.

We've managed to do the first two bosses in Darkspire with Paladin + Reaver + Fop Buffer, so we always have that alternative. Tank groups do work and take longer as already said, and I am not sure about the body debuff groups as I have not tested them.
Went for Ice Wizards here because they are the best route for larger group farming in Darkspire imo. Might be worth trying the alternatives in the future though, depending on what classes can show up.

I think that the best potential small group would probably be a shield spec Paladin, Reaver, Reaver, active Cleric.
Otherwise substitute a Reaver for a Theurgist to put a few pets per mob and I think this would work just as well.
The only problem with small groups is the time consumption and unless you can't find the alternatives (read: Ice Wizards) it is probably too slow to do many times a day, unless you don't want to share that is.

I farm it with trilogging pala-cleric-ice wiz. Can do the first five named ones without any hassle really. So I kind of have experience of what they drop. :)

Not sure what you're trying to get at, the first two only drop mercurial and adroit jewelery. Try looking after each mob next time rather than at the end before coming to conclusions about individual loot. And don't try to be patronising, it just makes you look stupid when you're wrong.

Nice tip, i'll try make group more flexible next time, haven't ever tried with spec nukers before.
