Averaging about two golds every three runs farming the three Jade mobs. Token drops much, much less.
Don't have my Rit this far in prophecies, so I'm stuck using an SoJ Monk build.

For those who don't have have their armor infused:
Gear: lowest armor possible, (I was using a max armor headgear and it made no problems) I had 405 health 72energy, 12protection ,12smiting, rest in energy, I used Ferverborn staff
I ran this on my Elementalist but it should work on other caster professions too (not sure about warrior but maybe on NM with some high energy set)
works on NM & HM just spam Spirit Bond like there's no tomorrow
Location: beginning of the Ring of Fire Mission
Target: 9 Jade badguys (warriors & rangers)
Usage: Once the mission starts walk back a bit and cast bonds, wait for the Mursaat to go left and bravely avoid them by going right and stand near the lava lake, a patroll of 3 Jade's will soon aggro you along with another group of 3 in a moment after, keep PS and SB up at all times and always cast Spirit Bond first before casting Pain Inverter (on warriors first) and recast Spirit Bond Again, because there will be 4 warriors attacking you use IAU. After all 6 are dead go a bit west where another 3 Jades are patrolling near a lava lake, kill them using the same method.
2 tokens per run is not uncommon.

Had 14 tokens in storage so on the way to Nick so I thought I would get the last one. First Mursaat I killed had one drop. I ended up getting three more just on the way to Nick with a full party in Ice Floe NM. Should be able to get them pretty quick I would think with a Spirit Spammer or even a 600/smite in any high concentration area.

Spirit-spamming Ring of Fire right now, my first run got me 1 token and 3 smoking remains. (From 6 nightmares.) I guess I'll hang on to those.

I need to farm some tokens or buy some.. T_T

farmed about 30 of them.
I will add that with SpellBreaker and Archana echo on a 600's you can kill also the other mursaat group (not the one with monks) and the jade near the tower.

I farmed the Ice Floe with ele600/smite. Starting from Thunderhead Keep, you can kill around 125 in one go. I used Sniper Support to deal with the monks, the high dmg shot kills them in one shot in HM (unless they have up Aura of Faith). The only thing you can't handle is the Mursaat Monk Boss. Ice Imps can be killed too. You could probably VQ the whole area if you wanted (provided the monk boss doesn't spawn).

Wed morning and I have a total of 2 tokens. Total waste of time, and what I get in the gifts isn't worth what people are charging for the tokens.

Ehh I did not like this week's item at all. Since I don't got my Rit far anyways, it was hard to farm them. I farmed like 6 with perma then bought the other 9. Anyways here was my drops:
● 10 Blue Rock Candies (Good item)
● 10 Sparklers (Meh not so good)
● 5 Mysterious Tonics (I would say a good item. There fun to play with.)
● 5 Mysterious Summoning Stones (I love summoning stones. So this is a good item.)
Hopefully I'll be lucky one day and get the super rare items.

Blah... admittedly I don't take a ton of time to play every day/week so this farm was rather ugh. Did the Jades at the beginning of Ring of Fire with an old 55 build that worked beautifully, but the drop rate was just ugh.
I got more Mursaat garments with runes than I have storage space for but ended up with 14 tokens before I called it quits and just bought the last one.
And for my troubles I ended up with some blue rock candies, both kinds of ale, jars of honey and the usual mysterious summoning stones. Ale is still appreciated since I'm going for the max drunkard title but was hoping for something a bit better.
Though considering I got a keg last week and a VDS two weeks in a row, I guess I can't really complain. lol

I got my second Moss Spider Egg from Nicholas. Still no weapons, minis or anything everlasting on the horizon I guess. Ah well, my drunk, sweet and party titles are a little higher again.
The Drunkard
Ugghhh, a very painful week for farming for me. Got two kegs, sparklers, bunny tonic, and mysterious tonics this week though, so it made up for it.
Hopefully next week I will have some good results as well, considering I usually get nothing but summoning stones.

I cleared out the whole Ice Floe with a team and had one token drop. After that I just said screw it and sold the 3 token I then had (got two in Iron Mines mission).
Gosh, I am hoping for something I can buy from the merch this week ...

Yean my average drop with a full team ranged from 1-4. Got a few nice non-inscrib items from chests though, so that made up for it.

i can only hope this time it will be something easy and i will finally get something good.
Axeman002

unless he was collecting raptor parts, I can't think of an area that was farmed more heavily in guild wars over the years than the griffons outside rankor. Except maybe the griffons in the desert.

Ewwww. Snake Dance. I don't mind Ice Floe, but hate Snake Dance. And if I remember correctly, the drop rate on frosted griffon wings suck.
I missed last week, maybe I'll skip this week, too. I'm busy with my vanquishing title/cartographer title on Cantha anyway.

hmmm trolls or minotaurs maybe!
but yeh a nice easy one, i always remember when they first introduced the shield from the collector just outside rankor. was online late farming away and rankor town locked out, knew somet was going off and found the new shields straight away. Mass wing farm ensued and i made a killing selling the shields in LA before anyone caught on

Hmm... maybe I'll try it with my rit. Spirit Spam seems ftw no matter where I go and since it's so much damn fun, maybe it won't be a tedious grind.
