Halloween Farming ~ Decayed Orr Emblems: Gates of Kryta (BIG IMAGES)
d3mented
does anyone know for sure that we're going to need these collectables? I'd be mad if I spent hours collecting the stuff and then when the event comes around you find out you need some other stuff. lol.

From Wiki: 'Decayed Orr Emblems have been tradeable for Holiday Items in all Tyrian events so far. During these events there has been a massive market for them amongst players wanting Holiday Items and Decayed Orr Emblems have fetched in the region of 100-500 each during these events. '

A shame that everyone started collecting them 2-3 weeks ago...
"WTS Orr emblems 20g each - pls buy"

Bugger knows why anyone would want to do this in Normal Mode.... when it can be 55ed in Hard Mode for golds too quite easily.
Not only that, but I fail to understand what necessitates all the running around at the beginning of the guide. It is easy enough to just run past the two farmers... take a left and get to Oink before the group of undead come round the corner to kill the NPCs.... And from there its a simple matter of slipping behind his house and down to the hound.

You might want to do it in normal mode because the undead hounds and graspings scatter in HM making it take a lot longer to kill them all, and the undead have less health in NM, so they die faster, meaning more emblems if you do it for 30 mins in NM rather then HM.
You run around by the farmers (its actually easier to just kill the two patrols of undead that come down there) is because if you do run around or kill them, about 20 extra undead will spawn down by the lone hellhound behind Oink's house.
If you do want to do it in HM, I would recommend a E/R earth tank, 16 earth, 11 wilderness, rest in energy storage, 20% enchant weapon thats about it. Use stoneflesh, armor of earth, glyph of swiftness, sliver armor, stone striker, earth attunement, crystal wave and Melendru's Resilience {e} Same run as the OP described, make sure your enchants are up when in battle, Melendru's gives you about + 10 energy regen and +10 health regen when in battle, so you won't get killed by degen or lack of energy. Use the glyph before sliver armor to speed up its recharge. with the speed you get attacked, it only takes a few minutes to kill all the undead, drops aren't bad, although tomes are fairly rare in my experience.
Hope that answered you questions SoTiCoto

Ooo, I'll try that Shiney. I was gonna go E/A, but your build sounds faster. But why stone striker?

In normal mode fire does x2 damage. so a fire ele can do a lot more dmg. inferno + star burst + lava font any thing like that kills fast.

Today i had time to test several builds that I posted earlier... The SoJ monk works great in NM/HM, the Holy Barrager works great in NM (only need Live Vicariously keeps you up fine), the Triple/Cyclone/Whirling Warrior works great in NM... not great on HM cause they run and hit for alot (Live Vicariously is enough to keep you up as well here). Didn't test the necro, para, or rit build but I'm positive the Necro and Rit will waiting on someone to test out the Paragon build for me!

And in case I never mentioned... I haven't ever done it for the Emblems (I merch those); I do it for the Gold Drops and tomes.

I'm not sure what you're saying here. I know a whole load more undead spawn by that Hellhound... and they spawn when the Hellhound dies. This doesn't have anything to do with the two small groups of undead running around the corner to kill the NPCs, as far as I'm aware. Killing the two patrols just takes up extra time that could be spent on the larger group.
Admittedly I do kill them sometimes, but generally just before doubling back to nip down past Oink and get that Hellhound.

And on the flipside, I've done it many times with my 55 Mo/D with SoJ ... and have got many tomes as well as quite a lot of golds. I'm sure your way works too.... but I kinda like mine. It is one of the more fun farms in the game. Quote:
