Beastmen Strongholds drop list

**saburodawnfox** · 2011-11-07 08:16

Natalan Copper, the Natalan Sentry is on top of the chest.
U'ghamaro Silver, the U'ghamaro Overman is on top of the chest
U'ghamaro Brass, the U'hamaro Ashman is at the entrance of the corridor leading to the chest room
U'ghamaro Copper, the U'ghamaro Ashman is in the little room west of the chest room
U'ghamaro Gold chests ar in that little room behind the widest room in the south east and the boss pops at the entrance of the corridor leading to that room

Happy hunting :D

Thanks saburo, was really helpful =^.^= Zahar'ak and U'Ghamaro are complete now, and in Natalan only the key pos for silver is missing. But i'd guess the mob is pretty close to the chest ^^
€dit: nvm, added silver key. Friend confirmed that the mob is right next to the chest like i expected.

All that's left then is cross-checking the chest positions. Like already mentioned, some of them are only rough estimates. But that's low priority, i'm really happy that the main work is almost done.

As far as I can tell they are the same.

**saburodawnfox** · 2011-11-08 03:59

Niya: I believe all your chest locations are correct.

Not sure about that. The ones in Zanarak seemed to have a ~50% drop rate, whereas the Brass/Copper ones in Natalan are more like <10%

. . . or I should just had really shitty luck in Natalan

**Grey Jorildyn** · 2011-11-08 10:23

It's just you. Seems to be between 20-25% for any keys for my group.

**Actus** · 2011-11-08 13:54

You just have shitty luck. I also would propose that there is an element of time involved with key drop rate. When I am in a party the drop rates for keys are very low, around 1 out of 7. When I am solo, the drop rates seem to increase to 1 out of 3. The drop rates could also be related to party size, but frankly. I couldn't care less to test these.

**saviorshadow** · 2011-11-08 15:18

It is possible that SE is affecting drop rate with party size since they already have an algorithm for linking and it wouldn't be very hard to modify the code for drop rates (at least, on paper imo). They may have considered that in a solo situation, it takes longer to kill and may equal the time it takes for a party to kill the mob 7 times in your example as oppose to 3. I'm pretty sure this may not be true in certain scenarios, such as the sentinel's celata solo vs. party farm. In any case, I rather stick with the 20-25% drop rate and people either getting good luck with the key drop rate or bad luck since from all coffers that my LS and I farmed we averaged at ~20-30% drop rate.

second sentinel's celata out of 9 keys. Fairly decent drop rate. Keys are not that decent, 1/5 is our average.
Managed to turn keys in with GLA, CNJ, THM, ARC using sleep/zerg Gatekeeper method.

Not mine. Kobold NM duo using some "return to territory" abuse. Not practical time-wise but fun to watch.

**Actus** · 2011-11-11 17:51

I tried that solo for about two hours. PITA. Got nowhere.

**Grey Jorildyn** · 2011-11-11 17:52

The kobold NM is in a pretty stupid place. You could probably solo it somehow.

**Actus** · 2011-11-11 18:55

It's a matter of keeping up DPS. It's extraodinarily difficult to keep landing DoT spells on moving targets while keeping yourself alive through the constant barrage. I wouldn't say it was impossible, I just gave up after making no progress.

**Kaeko** · 2011-11-11 23:15

May be possible (to the point where if someone did it would be very impressed but not skeptical) but would rather await the updates at this point. Game's going to change a ton in 3 weeks anyways. I am curious as to what they intend to do about the return to territory thing though.

**Actus** · 2011-11-12 08:32

I hope that the changes don't totally kill the high level solo play.

**Arthars** · 2011-11-15 06:02

got kobold boss down with 3.5 person

0.5 is my dual conj and as usual my luck suck so bad i went 1/31 sentinel body on right box.....total up of 20 hours of farming.............

people after me went something like 1/7 and 1/2 tho..........

random shit is random

Since YG finally updated their DB to 1.19+ i've added their API to my BSC site, so yay, mouse-over tooltips for the gear sets~

**TacoTaru** · 2011-12-27 14:35

Sorry to bump the old topic a bit here, but could a LNC and a CNJ duo Sentinel's Gauntlets and Sentinel's Celata NMs and get to the chest? Looking to pre-get some gear and get it melded so I'm ready to go, but I'd rather not force a giant group to go if it's unnecessary.

I know that Gauntlets can still be soloed, I imagine a good THM could still solo celata, but I doubt you could get there solo anymore.
