Farming Dead Swords.
Dronte
~20-25 runs, !0! dead swords. LoL.
Messy
I just got this one..... on my 3rd run
This is what I used, it works very well, and it takes like 10m.
[card]Mantra Of Earth[/card] [card]Stone Striker[/card] [card]Stoneflesh Aura[/card] [card]Arcane Echo[/card] [card]Sliver Armor[/card] [card]Sandstorm[/card] [card]Glyph Of Concentration[/card] [card]Sympathetic Visage[/card]

The Slave Warriors have savage slash, so make sure you use Glyph of concentration before casting anything, and SV should drain them . Aside from that, just echo Sliver Armor or Sandstorm. Now, every now and then, when you fight the 2 groups, you might die, it gets kind of intense, and if you forget Glypgh of Concentration, chances are Stoneflesh Aura gets interrupted... no biggie, you rez right there, shake off the dirt, and go back and finish them off. Perfectly doable with 15 and even 30 dp. Don't waste candy canes.
If you have questions, you can hit me in the game:

Seriously, don't think this is some get rich scheme where every run gets you a Dead Sword that is req9.

Senrath
*sigh* I can understand that this takes a while, but seriously, 17 runs and the best item was the single purple I netted on the 16th run. It was a Healing Ankh >.<
I'm definitely gonna go do something else for a while before my next run.
Oh, and I'd like to note that with the build Dont Mess WithMe posted, you can take on both groups at once, though if you screw up you're dead pretty much instantly if you're doing that XD

Yeh, i only got 4 golds in total, 3 dead swords, 1 shield, crap loads of purples though, but its not really profitable, unless u get a deadsword every few runs.
Senrath
Well, it might not be the most profitable, but it's easy, and now that I've gotten the hang of it, I don't die anymore. Oh, and a piece of advice, unless you really want whatever random drops the monks give you, avoid killing the ones that come with the last 2 groups, since they don't (to my knowlege) drop dead swords.
Thom Bangalter
they drop gold offhands and wands though, so you can get perfect wand wrappings (20% hsr) and possibly 20% hsr offhand mods. Why would you not want to kill them?
Senrath
well, that is true. however, if you're just after a dead sword (like me), they take extra time and wont drop said sword.
Domon Kasho
ive gotten 2 dead swords and 3 gold shields,(req8 and req10 swords) and i have done total 7 runs so yeah luck is the answer here
Neriandal Freit
Ok, I've got to ask a horrible question - how is it you guys get to this area by your self and not taking henchmen along with you?
IE: the part from Bone Palace to the area and the monsters in between, because 1 Wurm can't take on 4 Sandstrom Crags, + 30 Undead

protein
you run it you dont fight
Neriandal Freit
Your wurm, how can you do that with those enemys in between there with out suffering a fair DP?
Arkantos
You use the run skill. I never have any close encounters to death.
Skuld
Req 10 command ancient shield with a 130hp D/Mo, never even seen that skin before o.O I die a lot -.- monk has completed the quest and ele needs to get there
Senrath
Besides, all the builds posted can function with a death or two, so as long as you make it close to the rez shrine close to the ravines, it doesn't matter if you die or not.
Neriandal Freit
Okie dokie then, I must give it ago..many thanks.
tuna-fish_sushi
Am I the only one having a problem with them running? Or is there some secret i dont know about ive been killing the first group with them running and it takes forever. For those of you that says wand them its kind of hard to wand when your holding an item (obviously running w/Rt)
-.-
Herd them so that the cliff on the right of you. That should prevent those Slave Spirit warriors from running away.
tuna-fish_sushi
still not working tried every spot on that right cliff and i cant go anyfarther or i aggro another group or aggro those margonites can you take a quick screen on a run plz thanks.
byteme!

When you use sandstorm, does it scatter the mob?
I switch sandstorm with [card]shockwave[/card], and the run seem to be a little faster.

It is exactly what I am doing, and i switched SV to restoration Aura... Much safer, have never died since then. ( you dont really need SV, just use gyph of concentration to cover vital skills and arcane echo. and do not spam the attack skill too quickly, so as to avoid interuption

Huh, you shouldn't even need Aura of Restoration, since your health will recover as long as you're not attacking them.

BUUUU
man....i don't have that quest anymore..finished it long ago and didn't know about dead sword. Anyone else know is there another way you can get this quest again beside get a new char to get there?
Dronte
You can't do it again, you have to go there and get the quest and farm with another char.
