Leave Bai Paasu, go left and cross bridge. Kill Guardian #1. Turn back SW (below lake), kill Guardian #2. Continue SW kill Guardians #3 and #4 (boss), head south towards Sin Naga Boss, run past him, turn to the SE. Kill Guardian #5. Rezone/repeat.

bleh, guardian moss? honestly -_-

Well, so much for stashing those for my guild and the next Canthan New Year's feast...
Chasing Squirrels
They shoulda made the item easy to get like last weeks
Premium Unleaded
Low drop rate is loooooooooooooooooooooooow.
Oh well got the lot eventually, doing runs in the commercial breaks of Flash Foward and Bones. Less tedium in exchange for slower farm is a decent compromise I guess

yea like seriously, went with a group of pure players of 7-ish and after 2-3 runs, ONLY ONE player got a moss. I'm not going to waste my time on this one.

If this is another one of anets attempts to piss the community off, they succeeded.
25 Pongmei runs and not even 1 drop...

Hmm, I've saved all mine since the last Canthan event, including the runs for rot wallow tusks - I had but 1 in stash.
2 runs later, I'm at 3 total. Not sure I'll finish this one for 2 accounts. Quite painful grind, especially in Maishang (settled for MQ, faster runs - but the boss in M might drop better in long run...)...

I had 11 in storage left from vanquishing Cantha, and some runs to farm for Scourgewind's Branch a while back. Two hours of farming and I had 13. 1 per hour is ridiculous. So, not doing this one on the secondary accounts this time. We need to farm two more (hopefully tomorrow some time) for the other active guild member.
This is a farm I have always hated during the Canthan New Year.

The Drunkard
Was not a fun run...2 hours and the only good thing I get is a keg
On the other hand, I did get about 200 plant fibers...so it wasn't all that bad.

o_O Took me maybe an hour outside of Boreas to get all 5.
Solo, spirit spamming.

Bosses have a better drop rate

bsoltan
I'd guess he didn't do the boss with the heroes which is why they're out of range and therefore not able to take the drops. Probably just used them to get to the mob quicker.
Coney
ZZZ how many per hour - not a worthy farm, to be sure. 1 hour he got 4? That's about 3 deficit... 25k/hour min farm rate, take your pick (raptors/feathers).
EDIT: that doesn't include 7/8 assn UW farm that still works...

3.5k each boy o boy o boy am I gonna be rich after this week. )

I 2-manned it for a while with a guildie, just us, no heroes, no henchies. Not a single moss from over 40 kills.
Skip week for me.

I made a fortune yesterday, as i had lots of these saved for Canthan New Year.
Chushingura
Ouch. Sucks for you. I soloed (no heroes, no henchmen, no other players) on my Rit and got 9 in 5 runs so far (goal is 20). Average was 1-2 per run. I got more Moss than Wallow Tusks
Hengis
Farmed these yesterday evening. Took rather a long while to get five.. Decided to clear my inventory before going to Nicholas, and then lag-sold my mosses to the merchant!
I don't know if I can be bothered to farm another five now.

Two of us solo spirit spammed just about every Island Guardian in the game, in all different areas, for almost 4 hours to get our 10. Seriously annoyed to no end. Drop rate of these is stoopid. I think i could farm ectos out of the jungle with a better chance. However, Pongmei Valley ended up where we found the best chances for getting them.
Another Felldspar
I took three runs through Pongmei solo on the rit and had one moss drop. Ran through with a guildie probably 15 times, had another 4 total from that between us. The drop rate is truly dismal.
jshrimp3
After 5 or so solo runs none dropped. Not at all worth the effort.
vader
Farmed for about an hour yesterday with a solo SS and got 1. The drop rate on these is horrible.
Rocky Raccoon
Where did it say it must be easy to obtain the goodies for Nicholas?

Anyone know a build for warrior?
Chico
And watch out for the plummeting drop rate as more people zone in to farm and trigger the anti-zone-farming code. By the end of the week it'll be impossible to get these to drop
Voodoo Rage
Interestingly enough, I had better luck farming Scourgewind south of Leviathan Pits. I also got a bunch of green smiting staffs.
Murkrow
Good thing I saved those 2 that I got when farming rot wallows a while ago - also for Nick.
Painbringer
Had 11 after rot wallow farm got my gifts... sold the balance for 23k Not going to farm any more but will let you know where i got mine.
What I did back during the rot wallow farm was solo run to the collector on this picture. There is a zone portal close by. Now go around the coast following the paths...good luck on the drops (Boreas Seabed) Spirit pooper works well

i ran out of boreas seabed north with my r/rt spirit spammer (NM), hugging the wall to avoid outcast and naga mobs then west into the hills...there are 4-5 guardians along that trail. Got 2 moss off first 3 guardians, and about 1 moss per 5 guardian kills after that. Took about an hour to get 10 moss. They are selling for 4-4.5k in Eradon Terrace, which is ridiculous as gifts sell for that, but meh - if people are willing to buy (wtb's at 4k!) then i'm willing to sell
Chuba
The droprate was a bit ridiculous, farmed Scourgewind last night and I got 3 of his greens and 5+ gold items in the time it took to get the Moss

As for a Warrior build, just use the standard W/Rt Spirit spammer build in NM. That should do the trick.
Nereyda Shoaal
I'm getting more ecto drops than those mosses. Honestly

Out of 5 gifts this week i got:
-10 Mysterious Tonics (meh okay) (2 gifts)
-5 Mysterious Summoning Stones (I do love summoning stones! )
-5 Hunter's Ales (meh I would rather prefer aged ale or a keg)
-10 Jars of Honey (I guess there okay.)
Not many good items this week.

The Boreas seabed farm is quite nice. Tried it with my R/Rt Spirit Spammer and got 2 moss on 2 runs. Got lucky I guess, trying again after work.
EDIT: I take it all back, farmed for about 2 hours and got no mores moss. Getting frustrated!
