weird, I got a 6-26 r7 serpent axe, but it's white, merch it. Maybe I can get a gold 1 later, just a guess.

Got it figured now. Just take 3 spirits and 2 running skills. This way you won't kill too many at once. Just keep running in to aggro and take em a few at a time. My drops have increased significantly this way.

i didnt kno spirits got drops? thanks for the add on and support.
Normally only 1 spirit is left when all the vampires are dead, so i think 5 or 6 is definetly worth it, coz dieng with a few golds lieng on the floor is rly rly good at pissing me off.

10 golds in 45 minutes is my current record.

Admittedly.... 3 of them were total crap. Merched instantly. Later on another 4 got the salvage+merch treatment because their handle / pommel / etc mods were good but the damage one wasn't.

I pretty much only do this farm for mods now, as I've had all the skins except Zodiac Focus and Zodiac Staff (which is ironic, as usually I get more gold staves and foci than anything else) and kept at least one of each. If I can get my hands on any 10% Furious or 20% Enchanting mods, all the better.

I'm totally sick of the slayer mods though.
What with the Plants, Ogres and Dragons no-damage-mod weapons I got from the Kappas all in a row a few days ago, it was pushing it a bit to get two no-damage-mod Demons slayer weapons from the Warren immediately after.... ¬_¬

Oh yea, I lost several nice items that way, it doesnt matter how many times you have done this, accidents will happen and if they happen with a req(9) zodiac weapon, it makes ya wanna cry, so I take a monk hero along and flag her off the radar screen, then lay spirts and if something does go terribly wrong, my hero comes and rez's me and I get my drops. Try it!

I have tried a Assassin build with shadow form which should have kept me safe for 21 seconds, but for some reason I died after a few seconds, did the enchantment get stripped or what happened?

I can only assume that the Vampire's Suicide Health bypasses Shadow Form.

Sure. Vampire's Suicide is a skill, and Shadow Form doesn't block skills (because of this, Assault Enchantments can strip Shadow Form, like other skills...)

Attack. Next time you land a physical hit.....

Sooo... now you could only farm them by preventing their suicice skills?? o.O
Amity might see some use /sarcasm

You could still try the run but it probally wouldn't be worth it.

It should have been nerfed on day one if it being posted on the forums. It was a pathetic exploit.

A mod should close this thread, the exploit is fixed and it is only going to get crybaby posts.
