Research Trophy

[buddakai]

I got the quest for the Tradeskill Trophy. Unfortunetly i am unable to find any of the Dropped pieces for it.

I believe i need Rune of Tempest, Words of Expertise, and Wing of Xegony.

Is there some secret into getting these to drop? I noticed since they changed Research, that people arent selling these in the bazaar. I have vendor dived and still cant find em.

BTW. I play on the test server in the Progression guild. So i am currently only allowed to stick with Original + Kunark Content.

any spell caster mob should still be able to drop these.. although I think the drop rate is much rarer now.. I have still seen some runes and words drop after SoF release so they are out there.

hrm. and I may need to review the research trophy quests :/ Though you should in general be able to make the same thing with the new recipes.

I do not know yet if there is an issue. I will have to check on Friday. I think that the worst case may be that the trivials are off kilter.

thanks for looking into it

i appreciate it.. i have been farming in zones that have level 40-50 mobs, KC, Veksar, Droga, Sebilis. I have gotten tons of runes words and pages. but not any of the 3 i need.

i did a few of those swatch recipes just b4 Dec 12 patch.
they dont combine in the old container but they do combine in the new spell research kit.
hehe i was tearing my hair out over this one and still dont know why i tried em in the new container.

Oh man

I just noticed that if i did this while i was still a newb, everything is bought. To bad i didnt do it then.

Test server is so small that there are only roughly 8-12 Traders in the bazaar. I know it would trivialize the trophy, but is there any way to change it? I wouldnt say making everything store bought. But at least make us make spells around our trivial skills. That way we have to farm the hides/scrolls which are still used and can be found in Guild or Bazaar.

That way we would still have to spend roughly a couple thousand plat making items that would be burned. We would be trading pp for the ability to have a trophy.

As I recall, Rune of Tempest is a Luclin+ drop.
