Title: Stealth run: Farming Major Mana & Healing Potions?
Post by: Goza on September 18, 2006, 12:05:45 pm

Warning;: I'm not sure if that info is correct and/or still working, a friend of mine from the US servers mentioned it to me yesterday. But maybe someone's interested to check while bored :)

Apparently there's a mob in LBRS that always drops 5 major mana and 5 major healing potions (and random blues now and then). It's been a rare spawn but now he seems to spawn everytime. He's on the other side of the hallway of where the wolf boss is located. Forgot his name, according to thottbot it's probably Quartermaster Zigris (http://www.thottbot.com/?n=1011165).

Anyway, he's farmable by 2 players via stealth run (rogue & druid, 2 players as he has a net attack and calls some adds) within 6 minutes.

havent done it for a while but are the SC gloves worth grinding for? they used to be expensive and we could kill her fast and have some nice AH items for 33% profit share.


obviously i could come assist on healer or dps :)

This NPC does indeed drop 5 of each of the major potions, and yes he is a rare spawn. I did a LBRS run a while back where he spawned there was a massive arguement between the mage and priest in my group over who was having the mana pots :D

any stealth detection mobs on the way? packs that need clearing maybe? not too bad for a rogue but if lego gets caught he cant just stick his arm up and *poof* he will just go RAWR and bearrape them

Nope, but there are some spots where the room between the mobs and the walls is, to be quite frank, lacking. Should be doable though...

its possible to vanish kite, ie rogue goes first, sprints pulls the detection mobs. druid goes past to safe location, rogue vanish's. although stealth dedection mobs do see you in vanish the fact it makes you OOC forces them to reset so as long as you have distance they give up the ghost and return to positions
