Remove level 38-40 Lizard

Destruction can't even kill the Cold Ones
Does cold ones still have 100% drop rate of scales???
Coz thats a bug btw

anyone who can kill lvl 55 cold ones next patch deserves their scales....

Uh! What happens next patch? Hype!

You need to fix pet aggro or engiees will farm em

There are 2 options...

Since people complain about the time it takes Destruction to get there, I did some exploring in Ellyrion, and found a third. With a rank 12 mount, it takes 4 minutes to get from the Destruction flightmaster arrival point to the cave with the lizard, with no fighting or flag-removal required. It involves mountain climbing and as far I know, it doesn't allow you to get anywhere you couldn't otherwise. It's just a shortcut into the Order side of Ellyrion. (Asked a GM before posting though, and I can't promise it'll stay available.)

Spoiler:

Fly to Ellyrion, and ride all the way down to the zone portal to Avelorn, and look for a pine tree next to some rocks to the east.

Ride through that gap, hugging the wall to the left. This will get you on top of that rock. Continue north along the ridge and you'll end up on top of the mountains.


You won't be able to go further north than the Elyr Caverns because of a very steep mountainside and the Elyr Gates beyond it, but you don't need to. Ride down on Order side and from there you can easily get to the lizard cave.

You are the guy taht told me he would NOT change them after I showed you my farm spot. Thank you...one cant even trust the staff any more.
And I will surely kill these R 55 champs...just after I kicked this R55 lord in saphery in the nuts to get to my fragment spot. You guys can change the system,but you cant stop a german grinder!

And why on hell were the R40 Dark elfs south of the startign chapter disabled? Will the same be done to the TON of R35+ in IC arena?
And dont mention that basement in Altdrof...you cant find a spot there for really manageable solo farming.
The Dark elf spot is out of the way of any destru player, so a order farmer would not really make any thing complicated for destru player.
I am fine with the scale thing...it is unfair fi destro literally has to farm a single npc with an aweful repawn timer.
But r175 talisman crafting? Where is the imbalance in that? That spot was perfect,culd even be shared with other people without any problem.

Who says that this was his decision to make?

Don't hate on Torq specifically for this. In any case, the spot will be reverted once T4 is available.

Yupp can confirm that the pinetree mountain climbing worked....if it's faster then Avelorn route tho i dunno.

[Landaren]

Couldn't we just make those cold ones non faction specific?
I don't understand why we are trying to reinvent the wheel, just drop a bunch of lvl 35 lizards into dwarf in the lake and turn that crap into a mosh pit.

On the 38-40 Scav...
Destro HAS IT EASY....

On order you have one spot. The mobs are hidden in walls and down a spiralling stair. You need to aggro them out and most times you wind up getting two or three hitting you at same time. SUPER HARD to farm unless you have a deff spec geared alt.

On Destro my L30 / rr21 shamie can free target any one of nearly a dozen mobs, deal with them one at a time and even has room to kite.

So can we stop the pity me parade on destro? It really is getting annoying!!!!

[Dabbart]

Those mobs in alt are pretty easy to farm with the right class. My WP takes them easily. The trick, is to pull the first three from the entrance, then run downstairs halfway and kill the fourth. Then get downstairs, and kill the last 2 before the first 3 start to respawn. Its all about wiping them on their timers so you don't get mobbed down there. If all else fails, get a buddy to give you a hand. When I was farming there I used to see people pop in all the time. Having a duo farming makes it far easier.

or, you can just pull the original three from the entrance one or 2 at a time. If you can't take 2-3 of the mob, then maybe you shouldn't be trying to farm them?

Edit: I agree with your point though. Farming for my tali's was a giant pain in the ass. Simply lvling scavenging on 30's was a kick in the teeth. But them's the breaks in an Alpha priv server:P

T4 is coming. All our farming woes will be sorted then...
