Normally im pretty patient i understand thing can take time too get an artifact and/or the full book for an artifact....
But Tonight i killed Nightterror ( The Gem of lost Memories mob for the lucky unknowing) for the 34th time in 85+ RL hours camping/checking the island for the lil basterd...... And BEHOLD!!!!! It still hasnt dropped a single time......

Now with upcomming patch i sincerely hope then whine is obsolete but i just had enuf of it now... I pmed DEV's several times and said that they didnt have that problem on ne other server... :S now im wondering am i just as i always suspected insanely unlucky and "special" as my mom calls it or are there other with such an extreme bollox story....

Newayz Fuck u very much toa for ruining a perfectly good game.. coldnt care less bout the patch just gimmeh a SI server!!!

i think the only reason people want this artifact is for the mezz blade turn. WHich to me seems complelty pointless because all mezzers chain mezz to keep people interupted.

Seems pointless if its up its up if its not then its not :) i wouldnt bother camping it .

for me it took 20-25 hours constant camping (that means me and another ALWAYS camped it. always one of us logged in) before it spawned first time and it didnt drop. Another 15 hours wait before next pop then I got it.

Now it lays in my vault...

I onced camped Marishas gloves for a week until it popped, took 7 fucking days, DEVS were nice said it was just on a long timer and nothing they could do, they did check when it last popped in case i missed it in the 4 hours of sleep i got a night.....

When I wanted it for alts I just checked it and Orion's Belt every time I happened to be passing through Hesperos Haven. Did it about 5 times in two weeks and got it on the last attempt. Got two Orion's Belts in that time as well. There is no real need to camp artifacts. If you do it you have no real right to whine about it, it's your choice and no-one else's.

It popped 34 times in 85 hours ???
That's almost every game night!!!
For me it only popped 5 times in 100+ hours.
Of course it didn't drop either.

Umm it's a feedback spell... so the mezzer wouldn't chain mezz cos the mezzer should be mezzed.... well that's my understanding of it....

I have it on my inf as its the only way to get almost full +melee damage/style damage when using 2 LWs.

Took me a while to get it, but well worth the wait, wasnt camping for as long as this guy though :(

It does not always show in the status window when it drops, when i got it seeming all the mob dropped was a BoC, but spammed next loot and pickup and i got the gem.

So you might have let quite a few gems decay on the ground xP

I camped for the last part of Og's belt scrolls for 8 days straight, staying up for two stretches of over 24 hours, and getting little more than an hour or so otherwise.

It dropped after i gave up, happened to be passing one day with a friend and decided to kill one of the mobs out of spite... sods law :m00:

I am sure the thread starter will love to hear about all these people who got the drop after 20-30 mins of camping. :cool:

First time I checked the island the mob was up and uncamped (was about 8am Sunday morning), killed it and got the gem.

No camping, no tears, ta very much. :)

i got this gem after 15 mins of camping. the mobbed popped and it was very easy to kill and dropped the gem first time. This arti is also very nice to XP. GJ mythic, please make more encounters like this!

Original poster: Are you sure you were standing on right island?

( :flame: )

(seriously though, its a slow spawn this one and annoying to camp, get credit and look to trade it off someone is the easiest way)

Haha, the mighty mouse AngelHeal roars! And such a cool use of a leet smilie too! Allow me a heartfelt laugh. :rolleyes: I have yet to use the same Star Wars joke in any two replies recently, so hardly grounds for whining, but I guess you're reduced to jumping at shadows now.
