I'm looking to farm Skree wings out side of Vahnur Market. I have an Ele there, and I could get a War there if needed.

Any assistanec would be appreciated.

If you can't do it in Hard Mode, then usually it's not worth even taking a second glance at.

Well I don't 'need' to do it in HM, I just need the Skree wing drops.

For collector things, perhaps? An Energy +5 bow?

As far as the farming goes, whenever I need collectable drops that I can't solo-farm, I just go with me and my heroes. Olias as MM, Zhed as whatever (changes depending on where I'm "farming") and Tahlkora with her healing build. I run Splinter Barrage, but the player can pretty much be whatever.

It's all about the free minipet....

Basically I'm looking for ideas on the best build with the fewest Heros/Hench to allow to farm tyhese as fast as possible....

I think someone posted an Assassin build before that could solo skree in Normal Mode.

As for an ele... I can't see why you can't just aggro a huge mob with [skill]Shadow Form[/skill] and rape them with [skill]Sliver Armor[/skill]

Skree Wings are not excepted from loot scaling, meaning you will, on average, get the same number of drops in a full party. A few people in our alliance did this run with 4 players/4 heroes full party, and we averaged 1-3 wings per run. You should have 5 after three runs. You may only need two.

Doh, you are right, thanks.

They might not be exempt from Loot Scaling.... but if you CAN solo them then why not? Other things that ARE exempt from Loot Scaling can also drop.... not to mention gold-drops.

i made 3 runs and got NOTHING!!! anyway, the bog skale fins are truly easy to farm, just got out from beetletun to the west, and then go to the north: there will be some groups of lvl 11 bog skales, who you can solo with any pg, made 7 of them in 15 minutes, while someone was selling them 400g each ^^

And I just killed the harpys by attacking non stop.

I farm outside Tihark ochard, where the skree and haket involve in a war.

farm them in hm, get alot of gold items. you do not need mystic regen, the only degen you are getting is bleeding.


You have to look out for skree tracker for thier distracting shot and raider's savage slash. Maybe a mo/me with mantra of resolve (then you have to watch out for singer's wild throw to disable your stances).

You prob can't kill griffin since it will outheal your dmg, and they use res chant to res fallen comrades. Avoid grp with griffin in it. Spoil victor is the only skill can out damage its healing, but not worth the time. Maybe someone can try scourge healing.

I sold around 100 wings for 750g - 1k ea. Pretty good profit, alot of ppl buying it.

If you time your cast correctly, you don't even need mantra of resolve, just cast some useless spells like mending, essence bond etc for them to waste their int.
