Well. You could try the Shing Jea area. I can't remember precisely, but there was a nice area with lots of creatures where an MM could blast through.

the undead farming spot, Gates of Kryta.......that makes sense, plus you can rake in the decayed orr emblems for future events, get some dyes too

No offense I also though he was going to post a good spot ><.

I did about 10 runs at one mission i normally farm and got 8 ales and 4 clovers...

3 ales from one run.... not sure on the rarity of this stuff atm though, but i thought i saw the ale selling for 150 per, earlier. Not bad imho.

I'd suppose the same places everyone used to farm for the wintersday event would still work?

The Insects outside Yohlon seem like an ok source.

Possibly, and iirc they're primarily warriors. Sounds like a nice place to play with EoE.

I've just been farming the trolls outside of Droks since that's where I would normally farm for xp anyways.

He's not saying EoE will be fun because they're warriors, he's saying it because there's alot.

Ive done both charr, yohlon, and gates of kryta....yohlon (the howlers and insects) take a little bit longer but they have a much better drop rate than the other 2

Hello all, i did some runs (solo) in the areas - Nolami Academy, Gates of Kryta (Oink) and Great northern wall and after a pair of runs i can say, that gates of kryta is the most reliable (without much hassle if you do it right) from these three missions. Here are the results:

AreA/Schamrock/Clover/Cash
KRYTA 3 2 800
GNW 0 1 360
Nolami 0 0 233
KRYTA 5 4 1370
KRYTA 2 5 1970
KRYTA 0 4 1212
KRYTA 0 1 1200
KRYTA 2 1 1177
KRYTA 5 3 1066
KRYTA 2 4 25
KRYTA 0 0 1188
KRYTA 3 1 1172
KRYTA 5 2 1041
KRYTA 5 3 1629
KRYTA 1 1 1200
GNW 2 2 415
KRYTA 0 1 946
KRYTA 1 2 1156
KRYTA 4 0 1116
KRYTA 4 3 2391
KRYTA 2 3 941
KRYTA 4 2 1230

It seems that est results can be achieved in Gates of Kryta, you can get a lot of other items, like upgrades, runes, dyes.
I got almost 6-12 dyes for 6hour farming (including white, silver), I sell all the stuff to merchant as you can see from the table. You can get materials here too - Bones, Glittering Dust in decent amounts and this way make a better profit selling it to other players.
In overall - from my personal results - you get the ales and cloves in the same drop rate - from my own farming I got ratio 74/80 (Ale/cloves)

If you want to sell the ale to me, Ill buy them for 100g (I plan to buy around 500) - so you can farm it wherever you want and just write me an PM or add Madame Mysterica into friends and when you see me online PM me - I am usually in gates of Kryta/Lions Arch, I would be very thankful.

No offense I also though he was going to post a good spot ><. I could see the reasonning there but to clarify... I was only actually looking to see if my thought was correct or not, which I stated originally. I was looking for an old build and ran across this and it shot through my mind... that looks like a laziass asking without thinking.... so I checked. If you have much game experience at all then this question is pretty rediculous, hence the original thought I had.

Is there a good build for dervishes to solo the undead on the gates of kryta? I would assumine using like avatar of balthazar+ holy damage enchants when it's down would cut through them quickly. Along with mystic regen, vital boon, conviction etc. for defense.

i use Live Vic, Balthazar Spirit, Vow of strength, Vigorous spirit, Heart of Holy Flame, Mystic Vigor, Mystic Regeneration and faithfull intervention.

The build is a bit over the top, it gives you about +21 regen (bleeding and poison dont hurt anymore) and heals you for 50 every hit you make (thats 150 when theres more then 3 foes around (which is always)). And you hit for holy dmg between 200 and 450 dmg.

Ofcourse you can always try the low hp Dervish build.

I dont like avatars, it has been invented for the people that have a god-complex, not realizing it doesnt make them invincible and they leeroy to death.
