BTW Zehlon and Moddok have the same drop rate with all the same items in hard mode for those 2 areas most likely you got lucky No they dont hav the same drop rate. for one in Moddok the corsairs are level 20 where the corsairs in Zehlon are level 22-26. In Moddok the rare drops are almost never max. In Zehlon they are always max. In Moddok I usually go at least 5 runs without a gold. In Zehlon Iv been getting 2 golds a run. Sometimes they rare golds too.

I posted this is another thread, but it is a W/RT build that can take all that degen and still never drop below 75% HP.

just keep Resilient Weapon up all the time and spam VWK when avaible, when it turns off use Resilient was Xiko.

and bring a friend or snice dunkoro has to be there for moddok give him this.
OwAU0SH+YYFpEAAAAi0hy7fA

make sure to shift click his ench. or he will cancel them. I keep him on peace so he doesn't fight and make sure he is flagged 1 1/2 to 2 aggros away from the line of corsairs. Accept the corsairs and follow them into the trap and as soon as it triggers run back about an aggro, so the imps don't strip your enchs.



Got acouple gold items and tanned hides but no shinny skins yet.

good luck.

Call me paranoid, but after an hour or so of moddok farming I'm not impressed, I think dunkoro is still stealing drops even when he's grey'd out. Nub island is where it's at, the entire place is crawling with corsairs and they are 3 levels higher then those punks in the crevice.

Oh and yes snagged r10 on nub island, + a bunch of those other scimitars.

Land of heroes or whatever the quest is called from champions dawn(HM) would be excellent place if you could just keep kormir alive

I give it till this weekend and collassals are going for around a 100k. Even the ele swords are flooding the market since hard mode.

3 tactics for a +9 def for 6 seconds isnt worth it.
could always fit in that one rit heal.... that costs 2 energy while holding an item... dunno i'll have to look at more rit skills/war skills

and @ Kcp This thread was made more towards the people who wanted to get these items for themselves instead of having to already have millions of platium

I can't help it if ppl are taking advantage of these spots to gain a lot of money... most player wont ever have that much money to actually buy a colossal.

I really don't care what they sell for, since whatever ones i find I will equip my characters/heroes with them more then likely. Yes I'm silly like that.

I was basically hinting at, moddok sucks (IMO) and to take your happy butts to noob island(HM). Someone already posted a screenshot of the area

The 10-20 rares per hour isn't shabby either

I saw a W/Rt go out of Zehlon's alone. Seems like someone is farming using some build.

For Zehlon Reach, is the group of about 12 cosairs right outside of the Australium the only ones yall do? Or do yall run to the cosair way at the top of the map. I've got a couple of grape max low req vabbian, crude and ornate scimitars, and a few random golds just doing that first group with my monk. Moddock is just a pain to have to take dunkoro so I gave up on it after a few tries. I'm calling it a night for now. I'll try some more later this weekend after classes easy up.

Just found the Corsairs, they're to your left down a little path when you exit the Astralarium into Zehlon.
My corsairs didn't appear because thre we're Ghostly Griffons there (Sousuke quest).

I think...

lol grats chuck, i was just wondering if you kill them all at once or in groups? ive been farming them for about 4-5 hours between 2 days and yet to find anything thats remotely good, just wondering if it has something to do with how fast you kill them.

Yep, I run all the way to the end and kill all of them, make sure to get rid of the insects though because they will slow down the runs. But I doubt that the time taken to do a run effects the drops.

This has worked wonders for me, just make sure you cast PS when you have SoA up, if you cast it while under SH you will begin to take damage again. Make sure to cast Blessed Aura using a +4 Divine headpiece.

Hmmm, for some reason I haven't had any gold drops in Moddok for about a day now. Unluckily, all my drops have been Grape armors. Anyone else having the same issue?

Also, I'm having trouble trying to figure out how to successful do Reach. If you guys have any good Warrior, or Dervish builds to help me get this sword - please, help me!

I mean the only heal was regen, which was actually canceled out really fast because you have no energy -.-

it was a nail biter just to stay alive :P

Oh yah it seems if u take a break for farming there you'll get better drops
I went on 1 run yesterday gold tattooed right away.

got mine today. took me two days to get it, about 1.5 hours each day.

Heres my build, its fast enough where one round of SoJ can kill a Cutthroat.

PS
SoA
Shielding hands
Zealots fire
Mystic Regen
SoJ
Balthazar spirit
Blessed Aura

Alternate Shielding Hands and SoA, one must be up at all times. Spam PS to trigger Zealots. Stand next to casters/rangers to kill them faster too. If you encounter the necros with the rangers together you will get burning/hexed/poisoned(or diseased) then you will have a -1 degen which can't kill you as long as you spam PS and your SoA and Shielding hands.

I can complete the whole run with only one recast of Zealots, as long as i keep swinging at the cutthroats to keep them from running. Since Zealots lasts 60sec with +30% from Blessed Aura and +20% from sword, each run is around 3-4 min.
