  • velium farming?

    ok so im currently at 185 and im farming velium in Crystal Caverns and since im a 65 wizzy i can AE the entire area pretty easy but i heard that Tower of Frozen Shadow also drops velium. is this a better place to go if CC is camped?

    It's ceratinly a quieter area to farm, but there are less than a dozen spawns on only one floor that actually drop velium.

    Swings and roundabouts, really.
    Itzena Alhazared, Revenant of {Planeteers}, Vallon Zek. And also a seamstress.

        no, not so much. as a 65 Wiz you will have them dead in no time and have to wait 15 min for them to spawn again.
        Each Spawn of 12 I managed to get 1-3 pieces total

                cc is superior because of the forge in zone. velks has a better drop rate from what i hear. definetely better if you have to share the spawns in cc.

                  Just so you know, at 65, with even the slightest care, you can easily hunt wyverns in CS while hated and detested by CoV.

                  Heck, to be real, I hunted CS for wyverns and drakes for exp in my low 50s with max KoS to CoV.

                  If you really do plan to do old school quests in Skyshrine, then by all means, keep your CoV faction.

                  Since you're a porter, you might find Skyshrine especially convenient. You can port right into WL, run over, killing any panthers you see on the way. Take out the tigerraptors near the entrance. Zone in, hunt through, use the forge to break stuff down, rinse and repeat until you're too heavy to move comfortably, pop back to the PoK bank, and do it all again.

                  I almost never see anyone else in Skyshrine when I'm there; when I do see someone, they're most often doing a quest, so I just make sure not to interfere with the quest mob they need.
