A few additions to the map provided by Ulivious...



There are 3 corsairs somewhere near the red X.

Someone might not have noticed the little pop-up island in the northwestern corner. There are a few bodies on that island and when you walk around there some Corsairs will magically pop-up

It seems like everybody has moved to Zehlon, I was the only person in Moddock farming.

Alas, a Warriors gotta do what a warrior's gotta do.

you need mystic regeneration to counter the massive degen, healing breeze alone is not enough to stop it, ive tried a couple time using a necro, never succefully finished a run :P i'll stick to my monk and finally i got my collosal req 13 but thast not too bad!!!!!

looks f'ing awesome imo I agree they do look awesome. After a couple of days a Req.12 +5 energy Scimitar dropped. I had a black dye left so used it and, yes, I agree that they look awesome. Kept it for my monk after adding a +30hp to it. BLING!

I saw a perfect C Scimitar r9, 15%^50/33% deep wound/+30 Health for 100k and 40ectos. I was like "OMFG HOW IN THE HELL AM I GONNA GET THAT MUCH CASH?!" cause atm I have around 30k to my name...and thats from all my characters. Oh and I started a RT last night cause you can't farm crap with paragons...(gonna beat factions and then bring over the RT to nightfall)

edit:
So we leave from The Asterian or something like that and just follow that path? how many times did you have to run the course to get a Colossal?

Farming for a certain skin is like fishing. You never know when it's gonna bite, or if it's going to be a keeper.

Killing those extra corsairs takes away the numbness of the mind running those same 12 corsairs right out the gate

Leave Astralarium into Jehlon, follow the little path along a bit avoiding the termits+lance in the little recess then head south into the little valley-type-thing. There will be two more termits and either a Grub Lance or Preying Lance (depending on spawn). Just go past them and there will be a good amount of Corsairs in there to kill. If you don't get a Colossal Scimitar there is always the other quite nice golds that drop a lot to keep you interested.
As for how many times do you have to run it to get a Colossal.......tbh I lost count before I had one drop but like I said, there is always the other nice golds with some nice mods on them. Tattooed Scimitars also drop as do Spiked Clubs which are both very nice. As for money drops I think you get about 1k(ish) per run after selling stuff to merchant so if that's what you're after then I'd look else where.

So wait.... which primary is best for farming these fetchers again?

And by that... I mean what primary class has the least risk of failure?
I've got a Necro primary that I'm teaching to 55-farm, but I have to deal with both unfamiliarity (with 55ing), with laggy skill activation delay... and with only a 19% Enchant Sword (don't have any 20% ones, but I have two 19% ones).

I'd say it's easy to see which primary + secondary is best for doing this. Just go to the Astralarium and try to count the number of Mo/D's there.
I just use Wroth's Holy Rod(halfs casting and recharge of Prot skills) and -50hp Cesta and it's no problem at all..........unless something good comes on TV and I forget to cast SoA or SH.

I seriously cant believe how fast the prices are dropping. Yesterday a guildie got a req 13 one from Zehlon and where 2 days before that it wudve been around 100k+10e, he only mustered 75k. I believe that this is gonna be our new deadsword folks.

Definitely monk is easiest to counter the degen. I did a few runs with my nec and just took too long. Had to use Insidious Parasite and covered with Parasitic Bond. Even then it was pretty sketchy.

Have done the run around 20 times with my monk and still no CS. Has anyone else had okay drops the first 2 runs and then crap after? I've been having to switch to another place after 2 runs.

Meh...

Guess it is about time I started putting those Elite Monk Tomes I got from Byzzr to good use... as well as the silly number of elite skills I unlocked with my Skill Hunter Assassin.
Heh... and to think I can now give Shield of Judgement to my Monk without her ever needing to set foot in Mineral Springs. ^_^

Time to dig her out of storage and get to using her...
... as soon as I have unlocked Dervish secondary for her at least. ^_^;;

These guys drop unusual good loot: (Screenshots taken after 2 seperate runs, killing +/-55 enemies in Zehlon Reach)




I got that Collosal on my 3rd run (1st screenshot is my 1st run). It's a req 12 max dmg, +15 while stanced, deep wound +33% and hp+30. How much would that go for? I plan on keeping it though, the skin is awesome

in moddok crevice when you're in hard mode are the corsairs still supposed to be level 20? All thier dropping are white weapons for me.

not sure where some of you sell these, but my father just got a req 10 gold the other night. it didnt have any mods on it, that he told me. just a plain req 10 scimitar. he sold it for 40 ecto though...id say thats still a pretty good price. i dont know what plain, mod-less ones were selling for back in the day, but ill definitely take 40 ecto for that sword.

Is there a reason people are selling un-id Colossals?
I was just farming and picked up a gold, but non-inscribable Bladed Recurve in Zehlon...
