They seem to have picked up on an easy way to farm Platinum Weapons, seeing as Kamadan/LA have been flooded with sellbots selling Platinum weps unid. Am I just being ignorant and missing where to farm them, or what? If not, I have a new thing for my ele farmer...

Hi there i have noticed a lot of bots running the market place (6 warriors out front) they drop plat swords and wands so i would guess this is where they come from if it is plat shards (daggers) then it will prob be the assasin mission

Platinum weapons(and Chromium Shards)also drop from assassins and chests in the Halcyon Job. They drop more frequently for me from the Jade Knights in Wajjun Bazaar, however. People used to chestrun Raisu Palace for them, but that has fallen out of favor with the change to random chests.

I've been farming those Jade Brotherhood (and the Street Justice quest) for about a year now, even in Hard Mode, the only weapons of note I've ever received from them are 2 Gold Platinum Wands (one was non-max) and a gold Dragon Staff. I wouldn't say it's an "easy" way to farm platinum weapons...hmm, maybe since bots do it 24/7 they have better luck than I do?

The Mo/Me's swing by Marketplace from Altrumm Ruins to offload the merch food. I've never actually seen a bot monk enter Wajjun Bazaar.

I've done literally thousands of Jade Brotherhood runs while making the legendary survivor guide. I've only ever picked up 3 Platinum weapons from there and that was in the first few hours of farming the spot.

Hehe... thanks for the info. I did see a lot of bots farming out of Marketplace, but I didn't know they dropped Platinum weapons... *sicks ele on Knights*
