umm nope not from what i have found. They have made every level very tedious and long. Seems mighty odd as i am a level 80 warrior and to get sacred or blessed it took days and weeks to accomplish. I dont mind challenges but greys that take minutes to take down and then on very long times to repop is the extreme and the sheer volume of numbers to get. Ice fall mammoths are nice as also gives some exp, the shamans in dire are a death trap waiting for you to stumble into them. FOrtress well it is shamans on steriods.

If you can keep the elevator area clear (maybe 40 gnomes??) then you could try the Zeppelin for a change of scenery. If you can only kill a small number, then its unlikely the Zeppelin will offer any improvement.
Without knowing how fast you can kill, 1 Reaver in 45 mins might be great.

For sheer number of reavers, the Zeppelin is probably the best area -- but it's also pretty tough. It's very small, very cramped, with not much room to split. Mobs have a pretty large aggro radius, sometimes aggroing through walls. If you can't handle four to six mobs in camp at once, this isn't the camp for you. If you can, you'll get reavers much faster than out at the elevators.Sir KyrosKrane Sylvanblade

They really should change it to be "Any Reaver" so the reavers on the second/third level would count. If that was the case it wouldnt be as much of a pita.

With a decent group it took me around 10 hours to get all mine there. Only pull the groups of mobs that have gnomes in them. Only real gnomes are PH'rs... Not the robot gnomes, or mender robots.

We certainly want this to be difficult at this point.Ngreth Thergn

With all due respect, I know you want to limit the number of sublimes that enter the game, but the main bottleneck isn't completing the quest. The drop rate for the marrows and such is rightfully very low and only in a few zones. However, the quest being extraordinarily difficult only means that a relative few will be making the augs, the number of aug makers has very little if any effect on the rate of production. Only the availability of supplies matters for these items.Savage Spirit Sharrien Dreamstalker the Kraftin Kitty, Master Artisan

We did a mini-raid, usually about 15 people, every Monday for 5 weeks to get that part done. We stuck to the elevator area, the blimp is a killer. We wiped multiple times trying blimp without getting a single reaver.
Honestly, stick to the elevator area. Easier to pull/split mobs there with wide open area.

Again. We do not want to make this easier. We want it to remain difficult.
Yes the quest is not the limiter. With all due respect, that does not mean the quest needs to be easy.Ngreth Thergn

Have to agree with Sharrien here. The difficulty in finding Reavers to finish the quest is not going to effect the amount of augs available one iota. The only thing you're doing is forcing people to get gouged in the bazaar or elsewhere because they don't know anyone that's got it finished. After all, they are going to get their aug once they have the pieces for it.

Again sorry changing it to be any reaver instead of specifically A reaver, is not in any way going to make this quest ANY easier. The sole thing it will do is allow you to actually finish it without having to get people to go where No one wants to.
No one wants to do the elevators because there is nothing but this quest to be gotten from there really. No one wants to do the blimp because as was said before it is horrible rvr.
The only thing that making it any real gnome with reaver in it's name will do is allow people to do farm it in an actual groups instead of having to force friends to go waste a week or two at the elevators.

I 4-box these at the moment and it's slow yes.
in 3 sessions of 3 to 4 hours i've killed 17 reaver ang got 5 impressions, my killing rate is not fast.
today in 1 hour I got 5 reavers pop and got last impression.
only thing that changed somehow in what I did is 1) I had a friend who joined for that hour, maybe he brought me good luck 2) I only pulled one roamer group and pulled that way on "roamer" repops : if you observe carefully, let's say there are 6 mobs in a roamer group at first. you pull/kill one, then a second, etc....let's say after there are only 3 left in group, there is a roamer repop. usually the repop pops alone, not far from the group, then catch them after a few time. By pulling these mobs only, the "repopers" I managed to get more reaver than ever.
my theory might be completly off, I would be surprised if it's not the case, but maybe worth mentionning and I'll try to do same thing tonight to see if luck is the same without my zerker friend.

And the camp might not be worth doing without the quest. It's perfectly fine that part of the reward is the book. I'd recommend you get your friends to grab the quest too. They can always toss the book somewhere and forget about it, but they'll have it later if they decide to give tradeskills a shot.
But, if you want the book enough to go get it, then the RvR is just fine.
