    Fuck you. What is considered a bad drop rate on this? I put maybe 12 hours into it. Average?

    I think I've collectively cleaved about 30hrs+ to get 1 refresh hairpin that I passed off to someone else, I have yet to see another since, and I used to try a lot for that piece of shit -_-. 12hrs sounds good to me, I know people who cleaved for a week + straight and didn't even get one.

    Yesterday there was this sort of marathon for Celaeno. Did over 20-30 runs and got my Langeleik (finally!). Sadly, no robe. ;_;

    Grats on the hairpin! I was pretty lucky about it, was on my 3rd attempt to get it, though!

    I've seen people go out there cap amber and get it with an hour or two, and I've seen people stay out there for 16+hours trying to get just one lol. Either way the best way to think about it is that it's over and you never have to do it again.

    I believe it was a total of 80 hours to get decent dark rings for 4 characters and in that time two refresh hairpins

    God damn O_o. I'm happy with my dark rings... I don't think I will try to perfect them lol. A -6%PDT one and 2 -5%PDT/-4%MDT ones.

  8. #3228

    Do you cap Amber for those or just take it to 100/110 to avoid KI chests?

    I think I've spend about 40 to 50 hours total trying to get a hairpin.
    In the end I ended up npcing about 50 dark rings, got one decent one (-6 MDT, -4 PDT) which I kept and now I'm planning to get my mule one.
    Woe is me...

    I just cap amber and try to get pearlescent up. It might actually be ideal not to get amber too high to avoid KI chests, but I don't think it matters. You'd be getting less gold boxes that way. Maybe capping pearl and getting amber to 110 or so is better.

    I'm not sure about hairpins, but I was always told that maxing amber improves the quality of the augments on the rings. Thus, it's advantageous to do so, even at the loss of some chest frequency.

    Yeah, cleaving mobs at maxed amber yields quite a bit of gold boxes. I hate that they put temp items in gold and blue boxes. I mean, come on ~_~. When you open a gold box and see double hairpin you are like AWW YEAH and then you become mad.

    Didn't screenshot it but decided to take another crack at Kaggen a few days ago for Mekira body. Welp... I got the body on the 2nd kill. Yay me... only I think the game was either trying to be funny or reward me for my terrible back luck with Toci's because the next two Kaggens also gave me a Mekira which I pulsed both of them and flipped em for 6 mil for the pair. It was a good day.

    Anhur Robe took me like 30+ kills before I got it. Heka's was around 40ish I think? Toci's is over 500+ kills now and still not seeing that harness. I've had amazing luck with all the other shit from Voidwatch but Pil is just outright a piece of crap when it comes to that harness.

    Damn...! I'm still only at 58 and 60 respectively for Anhur/Heka, so I can't really complain that much. Problem is both shouts have dried off and I have been lazy about organizing them (guess I'll have to do that soon).
