Does anyone have a screen shot of the compass or dragon shield dropping from Dalada Uplands locked chest? Starting to believe it does not happen.

I ran about 45-50 picks in HM there a few days ago (at 28% retain, so that's more then just ~50 chest opens), I also didn't see any and somewhat doubt the weapons actually spawn there...

I went Curses down there, SS, with Barbs and Enfeebling Blood, with Ebon Vanguard Sin, Pain Inverter, and Mind Bender.

I used Hayda as a Party Support (PvXwiki Great Build) Paragon, Vekk as a hybrid between Air Magic and Earth Magic, with Maelstrom (0 water magic) to shutdown casters. His skills were Shock Arrow, Lightning Orb, Blinding Surge, Ward Against Melee, Maelstrom, GoLE, Air Attune, Death Pact Sig. And finally, Livia as a N/Rt healer, I took the two warrior henchmen, and the 2 monk henchmen. Surprising, I ran into basically no trouble at all. Barbs + the 4 physical attackers dropped each Regent of Flame in around 4 seconds (+ the sin), even the wurms dropped in less than 10 seconds. Pretty fun actually. Got a Hypnotic Staff though

maybe for some..but my drop rate for any rare item has sucked for nearly 3 yrs

i usually take along some guildies/alliance members and they get the drops...atleast i get to see them actually drop.

but it hasnt stopped me trying..

Wth man? They don't look fat at all and I think that's by far the silliest statement I ever read.

Guy above don't turn this into an Ursan crapfest thread and leave it at people can play how they want.

Also someone really needs to come here and confirm if they've gotten anything from Dalada chests other than rubbish! Thanks to those that have been telling us stuff and you who have been getting rubbish from the Dalada chests.

No, it isn't fun to play Ursan. Ursan is completely broken, and boring beyond words. Then again, it's not supposed to be fun, it's a farm skill to help rusher wammos farm like rusher wammos.

The difference is likely to be bigger than "a few". Ursan is boring beyond words, but it IS also completely broken.

You're not going to change anyone's mind about Ursan in this thread, so settle down fellas.

On topic, My hubby and I did Kathandrax earlier and no emerald blade. (Not that I expected one, but... I was hoping! )

I've also opened about 40ish chests in Dalada and Grothmar, and no luck there.

Serpentine Reaver
I dropped one r9 from a chest in VABBI during Vanquishing (/me very happy i love it and i wanted it), me and 2 allies opened 15 chests each just one dropped (3 areas vanquished for 45 chests total and and few less then 1000 mobs).
So it's right to assume it drops in all Vabbi. I will edit post later to indicate where i dropped it (get a screenie).

Frog Scepter
I dropped one in Bogroot's End Chest (it was r12 communing). NM.

Dalada Chest Running
In total, me and my allies opened 10 chests in NM and 15 in HM (while vanquishing), none of the Compass or Aegis dropped.

I have to say that I tryed Rragar's for Book's sake and hoping for a Dryad's Bow... no luck.

I really want to try Kathandrax now... i need it for Book's too ;-D


Edit
The place where i drop Serpentine was Garden of Sehborin
Other 4 chests opened in Dalada (NM) nothing good comes from them...
I've done Kathandrax... so damn boring, it's a damn work to do it ;-D
... and from the new screens... i don't like the emerald anymore...

I'm rather disappointed in the very dull appearance of the Emerald Blade. I was expecting it to have the shine of a Longsword, but I was gravely mistaken.

I will also confirm that Catacombs of Kathandrax drops the sword because my guildie got one last night (r10 deathbane, so not inscribable). The dungeon takes ~35 minutes to H/H in Normal, so anyone who wants the sword can easily go attempt a few times.
