Yes, I knew this and yes; I always pop the Ravagers once I've completed the bonus, just in case.

Never had an ecto that way, but you never know

Yes this is common knowledge to most old timers, the incidence is so low that nobody bothers farming them.

Interesting... had no clue about that. Since it's so rare... and the amount of time involved... don't think I'll try it though.

yeah i found that page when i was reading about ectos a while ago but never bother to pop them there. it's much easier to get an ecto in UW.

Yes I did know this, only because I read a thread on here a long time ago that was quite a bit like this one, asking if anyone knew about it.

i believe those shadowy thing on the way to kill Galrath probably also drops ecto, i cannot remember or confirm it, but, i know I've sold an ecto to a merchant once, roughly about 30+ months back. while I was on my first character. but i am not sure who drop, but i know i did sold an ecto to a merchant once, and I don't know about FoW or UW then. so ... i don't know...

well it's pointless to care about who drop ectos if you cannot farm it

Yeah, I know, but the drop is SO, SO LOW that it doesn't matter much.

You can get some globs in the Tombs too.

yep knew about it but thats not what they are good for, i used to go through that mission and go right for the bonus to get tons of non max golds and piles of glittering dust. plus the whole place can be solo'd by just about anything.

Yes, I knew about it. Never bothered to farm them though. If i want ectos but don't want to bother with the UW, then I'll head over to tombs and try my luck. Drop rate in tombs is horrible but still better than this.

Recent pic maybe?
The skill bar area matches the newest interface skin that came out with NF I believe.

When I found out what ecto was [second month of gameplay maybe], I searched for it on wiki and it said Ravagers drop them. Nothing new here.

Seriously though, why are people caring about a monster that drops ectos when you can't even farm it? There is no point in it except a moment of "Oh that's cool, never knew that".

I've been using the wiki for almost 3 years now and I never knew this. I guess I don't wiki every monster I ever come across..
