+10vDemons

Ok, this is gonna be a weird thread, and I actually just want some people to help me out with this..

I got this funky theory from chestrunning a while.

We all know the +10vDemons hype, because new people are starting to tank in DoA and they all want a purdy shield with +10vDemons -2wE, but these are a bitch to find, especially since Volo currently owns about 1/4 of all of those shields in game.. But it's because of Volo that this theory started to look more and more appealing to me. Volo has a bunch of shields, but he once told me that the Celestial variants are very easy to find, in fact he owned a req something before, and then he bought a q8 one, just because, well q8 is way cooler But this implied that celestial variants of the shields drop a lot more than others.. This isn't my theory, but it has to do with it..

I've been running vermin a lot lately, and with lately, I mean, I started last friday, and I did ~500 chests so far. Out of these 500 chests I got the following:


In fact, there is a picture missing: I merched a q9 str +9vDemons singlemod celestial shield last night, so that adds up to 5 specimens.

5 examples in 500 chests? Either this is the biggest coincidence I have ever seen in GW, or these chests at the vermin have a high probability to drop +10vDemons stuff..

Why post it on here, and not in chestrunner thread? Well, don't wanna highjack it with some funky theory of mine..

Why post it at all? Well, if anyone else is working on their chestrunner title, and wants to do something different once in a while, or someone is just interested in this as well, it'd be cool if other people would do this chestrun to see if I'm completely seeing things or that it could actually be that that chest has a higher concentration of these drops.

Also Yawg, it's be appreciated if you could explain to me why my theory makes no sense at all (Or that it does )

The build I use is this one: OwJSg5PTTQ/a0k6M3lHQIQ4O and I use full Saboteur's armor with a +10vSlashing shield, trust me, you'll need it, with 25 vermin slashing you in HM, you'll be happy to have the armor and stuff. Also, a golden tip: never aggro the boss without having SF up, Seeping Wound will kill you, I've survived Seeping a couple times, but don't hope for it, I was lucky

Hmmm it seems you havent compared your results with others but it may well be true that celestials are most likely to be modded with +10vs demons. try chest farming somwhere else. Or farm similar types of things eg. Lux assasin fac-Boreas seabed. but you may be onto somthing. Not sure what the MODs go for but they seem rare so I would keep em and see how it goes! Good Luck and I would like to see the final result!

Also If any1 knows where I can get a signature greatly helpfull!

Actually, yes I have, I've run chests all over cantha, including: Pongmei Valley, Silent Surf, Rhea's Crater, Bukdek Byway, Melandru's Hope, Xaquang Skyway, Nahpui Quarter (Mission) and the only place I got a +10vDemons, every, at over 3000 chests, is in Xaquang.. Although I haven't run a lot in Nahpui itself, because that's an even tougher chestrun, and yields less chests than Xaquang..

It means absolutely nothing, try running a few thousand in various areas and you'll see there are a wide range of +AR vs. species that come as drops. Ask anyone who has farmed Dragon Moss for an extended period in fact.

Might be true but it might not....what does a +10vs Demons go for?
