In recent weeks I have noticed that the price of Superior monk runes has skyrocketed. Because of this, selling these runes, even to the trader, will net u close to 4k per rune! So I wanted to know, where are some good monk superior rune farm spots? (I am a Wammo if u have a build to post)

Ettins in Nebo Terrace, there are plenty of builds in the 'Warrior Directory' sticky. However, if you have an ele, that can be a lot faster to farm them, using Water Magic.

There is no specific place where monk runes would drop more than other places. They are considered runes and it is random which run will be present.

Jade Brotherhood don't really drop sup monk runes...

I would do ettins if I were you.

Edit for clarity: They technically *can* drop them, they just don't drop runes as often as an ettin would.

I read this thread last night and went and did ettins in Nebo.
First run i got 2 sup runes, the next three runs were not as good, i still got major runes till the last run.
