Nicholas the Traveler - Location Discussion (Updated Mondays)

3 guildies and I were just vanquishing the area when out of nowhere Nick pops up. What were the chances of that and even more that we'd be the first to confirm the find.

Farming in tears of the fallen with the Perma degen.
~10 min clear, lots of skales but not a lot of fins.....

Same here red, but with R/Rt spirit spamming.

Starting at Fisherman's Haven, clearing any skale along the way to tears of the fallen. Entering Tears and just mopping up.

8 fins in 20 mins.

Farming tears of the fallen with perma sliver, just keep running around to avoid putrid explosion and/or bring some healing. 10 fins so far.

wow i killed 30 bog skales and not a single Fin... screw this weeks gifts

~65 skales per run, done 3 and have 18 fins so far.

ok guys the best and very best [place to farm them is one place only ther elike 100 of them farm min and you can geta vanqish too sence everything in there is skales except like 10 drakes


Tears of the Fallen

Redstar:

You use Archane echo build right?

NM or HM?

Can u post a pic of run? interested in how much and where you kill

How long is a run?

xD

Geez, what a pain in the ass. I've been killing the skale in North Kryta Province and Scoundrel's Rise as my Rit hasn't made it to Fisherman's Haven yet, and I've gotten like 7 total.

Though I guess all things considered, that's not too bad. It's just annoying.

Nope I use this build : http://pvx.wikia.com/wiki/Build:A/E_Degen_Tomb_Solo (you can change the last two skills).

I do it in NM, they die faster and don't scatter.

You run from fisherman's to tear of the fallen and then you start pulling the group on your left.
Try and make it so the Bog Skale Icetooths are really close to each other and then use 5 -> 6 -> 4 followed by SF then by 4. If something dies and the Bog Skale Blighters are still alive watch out because they may kill you with putrid explosion (normally they should all die at almost the same time).

I kill all the skales and it takes around 10 mins. According to wiki there's between 65-71 monsters, and excluding the 4 or 5 drakes, it's full of skales.

PS : is the everlasting crate of fireworks worth anything ? xD

Well, got my 25 fins running the R/Rt spirit spamming build, was pretty fast.

Obby works great here, for all eles around here sad for being taken the farming possabilities... Just Obby, Stoneflesh and sliver and win.

I use 600hp/Smither at Tears of the Fallen. It takes around 12 mins to vanquish the full area, but in HM.
For the 600hp I use this Build:OwES8YIT3VaR1DREylaFAEhE
and for the smither: OwIT443Y5IlnE6yUe0Lf4DA

Come on! I had 50 of these things in storage, I was guessing they would be a traveler's item soon. But, I salvaged them about 3 days ago because I needed scales :/.

Unlucky me, gotta farm some more.

Need a good War farming build for these.

I made a decent build but it was quite risky if you aggroed over 3 groups or more than 3 of the necs.

-VwK
-Wary Stance
-Dolyak Sig
-Healing Sig
-Blank
-Watch Yourself
-Endure Pain
-Signet of Stamina

I know there must be something better. I need 21 more scales lol

cheers

lol i can't believe i vanquished that area yesterday nicholas why wern't u in passing...

I farmed up my 25 Bog Skale Fins and went over to Riverside Province so I could go get my Herrings. I was shocked to see people buying fins for 1k each. Even though they were a bit of a pain to farm, I quickly sold my 25 for 25k. I don't know about anyone else but I would never pay that for 5 Nicholas gifts. Between 3 accounts and hitting Nicholas every week with all of them, I have only gotten items 2 times that could possibly be worth 25k (Walking Stick which I don't think is 25k and the Vampiric Dragon Sword).

Skales near LA drop a lot of fins.



Usually 3-6 fins per run. My best was 11 in one run.

FYI... If you are trying to buy the bog skale fins, be careful...someone just tried to scam me with regular skale fins.
