I know this weekend was a double points but WOW. If I would have had the time I could have maxed my LB title this weekend alone. I farmed djinns in the Mirror of Lyss. Just a couple trips in Hard mode and I have a 1000 LB points. Not to look a gift horse in the mouth but WOW. It seemed that I would get credit for 5 kills for every one killed I could be wrong but did anyone else have this happen?

Actually, you've been getting exactly six times as much.


Just look at the numbers: In normal mode, on kill gives 2 LB points. In Hard mode, one kill gives 6 LB points. Times two due to the special weekend that is about 300 points per farming trip (once down at the east side from Dzagonur to Honur Hill). And farming Djinn in the Mirror of Lyss in Hard Mode isn't even overly effective since there is no boss on the regular farming route and you miss out on the boss bonus.

Same, I'm rank 6 now . E-surge spike hurts us a lot in hardmode on the other hand (that group with the ruby djinn hurt even more :P). If you go south after honur hill and go down into the cave, you can get even more points, there is a djinn boss there as well. Which mean more bouns points! Happy hour ftw

Well if u had gone to farming certain other areas the lb reward would have been much higher as I managed to get 9000 odd points in less than 3hours, and I am certain others have done much better than I did

I've tried that run and the ruby djinn and the ele boss = party wipe in a couple seconds, how do you counter that?

Where did you farm 9000 points in under three hours? It cant be the run in that cave by honur hill because there isnt enough elementals unless you leave by the portal right next to the boss and come in and just do those two mobs over and over again.

Wetsparks, for the boss djinn group, I locked on to him with Norgu set to full interupt. I also had a broadhead arrow ranger with me, that take care of the ruby djinn. As for the rest of the party, 2 monks, 1 earth ele for knock down interupt, 1 warrior and I forgot who was the last guy (sorry!). We did have 2 SF at some point as well, but overall if you can stop the enermy's spell from going off then you'll have more % of winning. I myself played as a paragon.

Domain of Secrets is great for that as well. Five or Six groups of seven and only half of them have clerics coming out of the gate. Those are the ones you can do quickly. There are a lot more but it gets tough when you throw in bosses, pairs of Monoliths, and criss-crossing patrol routes. You can get 250 lightgringer points in about 10 minutes at six points a kill.
