therangereminem

Yichi
yes they can drop anywhere in Hard Mode. This should also be in the questions and answers section of the forums.

hard mode mobs are all at least lv 22+, therefore i don't see how it can be easier to kill thus no tomes. I think it's actually harder due to party size being smaller.

On-topic. Yes they do drop. [wiki]Baozo Evilbranch[/wiki] was good enough to drop me an Elite Mesmer Tome.

unless of course you go solo 
party size does not matter for that.
if i remember correctly tomes were not included in the 'loot scaling to party size'

I haven't encountered any, but it doesn't mean they aren't there.
The only boss I've killed repeatedly on Shing Jea is Tahkayun Tsi...

They can drop tomes, just like any other bosses but the overall rare tome drop rate seems to be very low.
In several runs of perhaps killing 24 bosses i got 5 greens and 1 elite monk tome.

Wait, i tought only bosses with elites can drop elite tome... And starter island bosses dont have elite skill, i did that assa boss outside Ran Musu and no tome, ever...

If a boss is near a chest they're more likely to drop an elite tome I find. Not sure which are the best for farming yet.

I wonder what would happened if HM were introduced in Pre-Searing?

I've got three Elite Warrior Tomes and one Scroll of Passage to FoW from W-bosses in Fahranur, The First City (of course not in the single run).

I got an Elite Paragon Tome from the bug boss outside of Kamadan, in the Plains.
