Hey Guys,

I have a lot of toons that need their RK. II spells. What are some of the best places to farm Spellbound Lamps?

My understanding is they drop primarily off named mobs, so where is a good TBL area you like to go with a lot of condensed named that have a decent spawn rate and are not too difficult with KA11 doing most of the work?

I'm currently trying out the south end of Esianti.... but it the Lamps are very slow going here.

Thanks for your input!

Mearatas center is a guarantee'd named every like 36 minutes (I think it was 18 but got nerfed just as i got access? lol), best place I've found to get named back to back.

Having said that, I would run Brass Palace, and PoS trials every chance you get, they drop spell things very frequently.

The other named camps I've hung out at have very slow / sporadic spawn rates
 
Mereatas is not over 30mins unless it changed within the last week?

It's not a great spot though depending on the group/classes you have, the named spells can cause problems for consistency.

I find brass palace/contract of war/tyrant of fire/delivery and smoke trials easy to loop and almost always drop a spell, of all them smoke trials are the longest unless you stick with trial of 3 only (I haven't done the cliff something or other one or cyclone though personally yet so not sure if they are quick with ideal group)
 
Do Mereatas Center; you'll not only get the center mobs, but if you pull the hallway trash, you'll spawn the occasional ancient fire, water, stone, air warden that drop spells and gear. If you can get the center, it's the fastest way to gear up your toons and get their spells. When that location is camped, then the Brass Palace/Contract of War/Tyrant of Fire/Delivery line is excellent. I don't do the trials much these days.

Still 30 minutes on named respawn and I occasionally get a double name spawn with one popping right after the next (not sure why that is, usually my first pull and not always).

Best I've been able to figure is sometimes if the center mob isn't killed and the respawn timer passes, it will "on deck" another one.

Went there today and had 1 spawn and 2 back to backs - was nice.

also checked, and Rooster is right, still 18-20ish minutes
 
Helms and gloves seem to be non-existent or super rare from the center mobs in Mereatas. I camp this all day, about 12 hours + and didn't see either drop. Arms seem to be rare as well. Only had 2 drop in the duration. Everything else gears out nicely. Received about 5 muhbis's during the session and some odds and ends. Spells seemed ok. I fully tier'd my cleric and a few into my wiz. I did try to pull the hallways as much as I could but I never got a named to pop but I wasn't consistent in pulling so my ratio of killing PH for a chance to spawn one was low.
