I just saw bog boy's thread on "what's the best farm you've had in one run?" and it got me thinking about those horrible, redundent, LONG farms everyone has done and gotten next to nothing in return. So the question is, "what is the worst farm run you have ever been on?"
My personal WORST: Took an almost all noob group into tombs when it was first patched in... took over 3 hours to finish and in the end Darkness dropped his best greens but NONE for me... ended up with about 2k in merch including a crap gold raven staff!!! :P
Worst Farm Ever?!?!

Anet hates me....This week i have been going to UW everyday when we get favor im a 55Monk and my partner is SS so ive been going with hm to UW for like 3days and I do like 3 runs each day and we clear smites and chamber. So for 3 days ive been going with him and we do 50/50 and he always gets the ectos and he got a saphire each day he gets 1 ecto always reserved for him and right after that he got a saphire, and me I must learn to love the demonic remains. Yesterday right when we were going to go in UW i was about to click to take us in then Europe takes favor away from americans....I hope today ill get an ecto..Man anet why all the hate on me?!?!?

This just shows randomness. Three of my guildies went into SF with 5 henchies, and killed 2 bosses (Thorgall outside before going in, and Bortak inside) and both dropped a green for one of our human players >_<

Orange Milk
In the Deep, back when it was new and Zodiacs sold for tons of gold.
One run from chests 2 wayward wands and 2 straw effigys
I got a gold drop from a monster, which was of course, a wayward wand.
failed at the end so no green, 6k and over 2 hours gone.

FoW farming run... dropped 7 shards.. none for me... all I got in that run was 12 piles of glittering dust...

i remember a while ago, in Shing Jea, i helped a newbie out with a quest with my lvl 20 barrager, he was lvl 2 ele, i got.... 2 very, very basic drops, even by Shing Jea standards, and he got about... 15-16 i think, one of them purple, and most of them average-good for Shing Jea
i was kind of annoyed, because he'd basically spent his time dying :S
incidentally, quite a few of the posts before me have been off topic, such as the one's about "how do you solo farm UW with a warrior", it's hardly related to worst farming run, is it?

Around christmas, the time of Candy Cane Shards. Cleared 3/4 of FoW on my monk, 1 warrior who had never been FoW before got 8 shards. I got 2 candy cane shards. Some ****ing reward.

well i noticed that my guildie always gets better drops, but the only difference seems to be the fact that he dies way to many times :/
Shadowfox1125
Well.. farming trolls out side DF gave me like 400 once
but as for chest farming, have you ever had 5 runs in a row where there were no gold chests?

My first 20 runs in the Deep yielded no green.
Hidden in the Mist
^ Yea, it's pretty common for a Imperial Sanctum run to bear no gold chest.
Francis Demeules
That happens to my friend and not to me (but helped too). He wanted a smite green staff, well, the one whic is dropped by The Elder Guardian in Silent Surf. Each time he did the quest to go to Unwaking Waters, The boss always dropped its green staff but not to him. One day he decided to farm it. The boss never drops it to him. I helped him because I wanted some Plant Fibers ( Got like 200 Fiber during that farm) and he never got the green staff.
He rage quit by lacking of patience and I said to him if I got, I will give him.
Since 3 weeks now, I never got his staff, him either thought. But, I finally got his staff today.
3 ****ing weeks of patience and farm rush againt that boss with my Sin just for him. Perhaps I wasted my time to get his staff, but for me, I got my 3 stack of Fiber in exchange.

I have not got 1 good chest drop outside DF anywhere.
@thrax-
topf will almost never drop anything unless you get to the 4th lvl. just a heads up before you do but farm it for 2 weeks...

LOL.. I have never seen or heard of that one happening, but you're right... ToPK can be a pain in the rear, especially with a bad, slow group and NO drops for the people doing the work! ToPK and SF have been pretty evil to me lately when it comes to drops...
Count Stacy
well i went into UW me being 55 and my buddy being SS.. i kill the first 3 atxy's.. and they drop all ectos.. ..i don't get any.. so on and so on.. he ends up with .. 6 perfect req 8-7 golds.. and 10!!!!!! ectoS!!! this was after we didn't have the favor for a while.. and . i came out with .. .. little to nothing.. oh ya.. BTW.. we don't do 50/50..
Corcky54
So i buy 25 forgotten keys for raisu palace. go out alone and use, about 23 of my keys, all purples, i decide to join a group, the two that i opened were purples (25 purple chests in a row). We find 4 more chests, all rares, one guy got two golden phoenix blades, another got 3 platinum longbows. I asked for a key, they said "WHY DONT YOU GO OUT SOLO SO YOU CAN NOT BE A NOOB. FAG"
Im confused...

Not necessarily true. While doing ToPK I did not receive any ecto or greens until about my 4th time through it. I've since tried about 15 times and only made it through 4 times and got 1 green (Illysana's Staff), 3 ecto and a few decent, but not great golds. I've played one time where someone received 4 of the greens....
Angry penguins
Me and some of my friends did quite a few SF runs for a few weeks. at least 2 every day. I never got a green.
SOTY731
worst ive ever had was 16 consecutive sf/oro runs with NO GREEN DROPS FOR ME!!.. i just gave up after that bs lol
Lurid
Worst run i've ever gotten was a tombs run.
3 x Ecto Drops, none for me.
4 - 5 x Gold Drops from Enemies, none for me
0 x Gold Chests found, out of 3 chests spawning (I didnt test any though)
1 x Black Dye drop, for someone other than me
0 x Greens for me
Only made around 1.2k out of gold picked up and the things I was able to merchant. Thats really bad since the average run I make on my B/P is like 2k - 2.5k+ in just the shit I merchant.
