i really think farming orbs will be really cool so i did it and it worked awesome good so i posted here (but don't tell anet cause they nerf it). this is mi first farm post and i hope you all like it and if you don't then you suc

ATTRIUTES:
standerd IWAY eoe1 attributes

SKILLS:
W/R

Cyclone Axe (or triple chop)
Eoe
basically anything else you want ( i would bring a pet so you don't get bored)

PROCEDEUDR:
1. go out of Ran Masu Gardens into kinya province
2. agro everythinhg (i would suggest a storm bow cause bugs are attracted to shiny things) <also could bring flatbow
3. lay down eoe and cyclone axe a group4.pick up your orbs
5. go back to #1

i ussually get about 30 orbs a run but sometimes more and less and each one lasts about 2 mins but i've never timed so idk.


P.S. the seret is to agro all the bugs first
I hope you enjoy this and happy farming

contact me in game if you need help

i think I'll try this with a different varient...I'll probably go A/R and use Barrage + EoE. Hopefully that will mean 6 dead in 1 shot = 6 EoE hits = more dead = more EoE hits... This looks like a ton of fun.

Anyway, it might work if you have a starter bow or something or low markmanship. But if you aggro something and dont kill it, you might just as well use a good bow and high marks and kill it on the first hit...

I think what I'll probably have to do is take a minimum dmg bow and aggro stuff by using barrage. Takayun Tsi I believe has an ENORMOUS mob attatched to him. Smack him and see if they all aggro.

I'll probably do something like this:

Min dmg bow, Barrage to aggro a bunch. let them regen and do no dmg to me. Barrage more. Get them all aggroed. EoE, Winnowing, FW, Barrage. Giant mob of dead things.

An AoE minion creation would be awesome for that...instead of heal area: Animation Aura- All dead creatures in the area become lvl 1-15 bone fiends, Animation Aura has a 50% chance to fail with Death Magic 4 or less.

That would be the ultimate skill...

Well... ive tested it, I managed to pull about 20 mantisses, but only 1 dropped a Orb. As far as dropchance on Orb is, I dont think that his picture is genuine. The corpse is from the boss, that doesnt go away after a certain time. But aggroing the whole lot, seems to take just about as much as time as shooting them 1 by 1 with my Drago. Especially when the boss puts Crippled on you.

*cough* only boss and player corpses show up on radar, the other ones vanish in seconds *cough*

The build works, if you had actually looked at his screenie, the one corpse there is a boss corpse. Boss corpses don't vanish. Everything else but bosses and player corpses vanish. To top it off, if he had placed the drops, it would look different and it's possible that he would not have remembered to have a Jade Wind Orb cluster of 3 for the boss.

Put a bit more thought into it next time. Maybe he went and got a coke or something. Literally 20 secs or less and he would've lost the non-boss corpses.

Maybe he killed them, made the post, went back, and then got the screenie. That would also explain the absence of any other corpses because there would be sufficient time for the non-boss corpses to vanish.

EDIT: Friend says that the orbs are suppossed to drop on like 1/10th of monsters....how are you getting 30 orbs?

Ok, but the 30 orbs didnt drop from that 1 farm run... so why is it better than any other method again?

But still its a fun way, ppl have been using EoE all day I hear. But I doubt its really faster than a charging warrior or 1-shot-1-kill-ranger

I aggro'd like 25 mantis including the boss and killed them all with my Ritualist, and out of all those mantis I got like 1 or 2 orbs.

Lol, didnt u go offtopic with that new Minion skill? Then you started flaming us cos we didnt believe his body count.

Anyway, this wasnt meant to be in farm section in the first place. He was just trying to show off with his pic, but he never posted skillset or AP spend. On the other hand keeping this post here for a while might make other people aware that not everything should be believed on what you see on screens.

when i tried a bow i killed them all first hit too. i am seriously at a loss on how to bomb these fellas. as it stands, no matter which char i use seems to kill them in one hit, but im looking for a way where i dont have to target/hack EVERY single one ...

It's not false, just grossly, grossly inefficient, since the Mantes die in one hit anyways.

He already admitted that the screenshot was fake.

The only thing this thread is guilty of is being a duplicate thread. And having too many exclimation marks.

In response to EoE, don't do it. If EoE procs, you won't get ANY drops. Just peg them one by one.

Well, EOE farming works on Grawl, yes? I wonder if its just for groups that are pissed at you or no... either case, the HUGE swarm of enemies north out of the last Shing Jea mission in the lagoon, near that pier... (they spawn with some quest I believe) is probably your best bet as A) they are all already pissed at you so its easy to get them to aggro B) theres alot of them C) they are humans and trying to stay alive through an EOE bomb if humorous. Consider bringing Shielding Hands/Healing Hands/-2 Stance Bow for the farming...

But yeah please lock thread.

It might work if you bring Mark of Protection. Could be risky. hmm sounds like fun

Sorry if that sounded like a flame, it wasn't meant to be one. I agree that keeping the post there might get a point across to people that things aren't always as they seem.

Oh well, let's leave it up for a while, the OP had to waste a lot of time just for one small thing.

As for the "new minion skill", my post was originally on topic. I was referring to the fact that the thread itself gives bad info and wasn't really intended to help the community (when I said that the post should be locked).

Anyway, unless they do something weird like make everything drop Jade Wind Orbs at 3 at a time during the final day, it looks like we're just gonna run around smacking things like we always do.

It's the first mission that a Canthan character does, in the town that the quest "A Formal Introduction" takes you to.

Hahaha, see, Priam Slayer, you essentially just rewarded him. And for christ's sake, if you want a run somewhere, ask me next time I'll gladly take 5k for a run that easy!

Hi!

Just wanted to make this thread a little more useful.

I farm for jadewind orbs near the tsunmei village with my vengeful-ritulist.
All i do is take the second quest of the blade of the emperor where all the Quimang-Guys come to siege the village.

Kill on both sides of the village, then abandon the quest, retake it and repeat.

I get about 5-10 orbs in about 10 minutes...

Another way could be to farm vermins out of senjis corner, they drop those orbs aswell...

Hope that this at least helps a little.

Cheers!
MadHamish

EDIT: Damn, just realized I'm not the only one who farms the quest... There is already a thread in this forum...
