Ok first off,u can do this with basically any profession if u have the damage and a run skill.

this is the green the boss drops.

Start from Rilohn Refuge and head into The floodplane of Mahnkalon,then just head up and run past the first group and a little further and u will see a group of 3 including the boss.Now dont worry,the group itself is bugged and wont attack,so like i said anything pretty much works if u have the damage.

I hope this thread is detailed enough and good luck with farming this pretty nice skinned bow

Well no since they dont attack,i did say pretty much any prof can if they have the dmg,not EVERYTHING.If your a necro,just use hexes to degen or something and wand lol

EDIT:@kez,lol it took me like 15 or so runs to get the drop:/

when you exit town, turn left and with running skill run past first group of monsters, you'll see then the boss and 2 minions. i got a bow from my second run.
I allready see that green bows (of any kind) will drop so drasticly in next few days.... This bug is too exploitable

"Pre-nerf" is incorrect. It's pre-buff.

a warrior build = sprint + the most damage you can deal in order to make it go faster. Just max out your weapon and go to town.

if you dont get it in your first 10 tries you've probably triggered anti-farm (you can confirm this by the 'quality' of drops, ie, if it's a single white and/or money, it's anti farm, if you are getting scrolls and purps/golds, keep trying).

Mix your farm runs (as always)......40 consecutive runs is a waste of time

Never hurts to farm some other guy right? My paragon has done 40 + runs no drop.. i dont rly know anywer a paragon can farm.. anyways i got my warrior from tyria.. got to the second island and ran myself to refuge.. luckily for me all gates on the way wer open

ps still no drop lol.. At least im getting purples from the 2 creatures near it

pojnx, we are telling you to farm somewhere else, but if you want to farm a boss with fully-flagged anti farm for 1000 consecutive times, be our guest
