Hi there!

I´m having big troubles down in Fissures of Woe with my W/Mo. I´ve recently come up with a good build for farming Snarlings and Spiders so the whole beach can be exploited for loot - BUT, I´m not getting any drops, I´ve done this run maybe 20 times now without getting as mush as ONE shard. Have u heard anything about farmingscodebugs or something like that? I´ve tried to farm other places just to "reset" the farmingcode but that doesn´t seem to do anything.

Anyone with some tips or any thoughts about this?

Shards are over farmed, and over rated. Try doing Uw, and buy the shards from selling ecto's. Or try farming the forrest maybe a better drop rate there.

Sound like you ran in to the anti-farm code, just take a break for awhile go watch dvd or read a book until the code reset itself. And you should be asking this in Q&A or faming section, not here.

In general I've recently found that the quality of drops has been utter and total rubbish.

I've gone through the majority of Nightfall (Not farming) and I think I've seen a total of 2 purple and 1 gold actually loot drop.

I got 6 shards from that run the other night so either you are horrendously unlucky and should find another game or its the farm code (which it doesn't sound like from your comments).

Last night I killed the first three, got a shard, got bored and went and read a book. So the shards don't seem any worse for me.

I get grapes all the time, and about 3-4 golds a day if I'm not farming.

I ran the beach and the armored spider cave yesterday again, about 5 times.. no shards.. 1 obs. key. This makes it over 20 runs without a single drop of shards.. if it´s bad luck.. I´d say that bad luck has changed its strategy!
