Well, I'm at 188 skill now finally. On the rathe server, Dark Elf of Innoruk. Now I can go on doing screaming steel or acrylia, or I can toss some serious cash into the flow to do some sickles and hope they sell (market seems fairly flooded here.) Or I can go do my racial armor, which takes elf blood and shadow essences. I've been farming the shadow essences (rather my wife, bless her soul has been doing it for me) and have only gotten 10 in about 4 hours. Now I farmed elf blood with my mage, that went fairly quick in about 20 minutes I got 10 of those. That means I can farm up 20 essences, to make the shadow temper. So 8 hours later gives me roughly 10 of the tempers, barring any failures. And with what I'm seeing 200+ combines and little or no skill points, I'm looking at about 500 hours of farming to get to 220 or so. That isnt gonna work. Any advice from anyone on this?

A Melee, can gather around 25 to 50 Shrieking Substances an hour. And about 20 to 40 Wailing. (I have not gathered any for a month now, so my times might be a bit out).
With the addition of AOE, you could gather about 40 to 70 of each per hour.
So lets say thats 40 to 50 Humming Orbs you can make per hour.
And lastly, the gathering of Shadows (Swirling), expect about 20 to 30 per hour in Twilight Sea. With lowest amount being 2 need per combine... so for putting in about 2 hours you can do 10 to 15 combines...
Best bet is too farm the Owlbears/Wolfs like mad, until you get about 600 each (or 1k of each considering expanded bank slots for LOY). Then just farm Shadowscreams .... It seems alot of people gather 200ish of one, then about 40 of the other substance, you really need to farm these things very heavily, to maximise your time.
I am not a Dark Elf, but basing my advice on the example you provided I would say do the Shadowscream, and/or Sickles.
