Easy and fast tribute

[sickfreak]

Okay, this isnt a huge secret but being the velious expansion most people dont even go there anymore. In Western Wastes the line of dragons starting with Yeldema (sp) and on down around the western side of the DN and ToV pits all drop the dragon armor ranging from heavy to matchless, heavy loot ranging from 500 tribute to matchless going all the way up to 15k tribute, some of the dragons drop 1-3 peices of loot on avg its 1, but thers about 10 of them, and then you just move into the ToV pit from the wester side so you dont die from the fall and clear there, i play a 70 necro i can clear them all NP, there are just a few dragons in the zone you need to watch out for they have a glflux like none other but they are all wandering dragons not static spawns.
again its nothing special just hope its an easier way for som folks to get some quick tribute. after im done clearing the line of dragons and the tov pit they are all respawning so i can easily rack up 40k+ in tribute items on 1 run but you will get duplicate items, best if you have a porter with you or can gate, hope it helps some of you if your like me and tributes mana regen that stacks above the cap of the worn FT =)

Moved to proper thread.

And nice little tribute strat. Always nice to see these come along

 

[spartusnecro]

Yep, sweet. I do this on my server on "down" days when I'm really not feeling like doing anything else. Nice to see other necros are thinking like I.

the few wandering dragons that are DB at 70, have a higher chance to drop the matchless/peerless items only catch is you gotta be geared to solo them IE Harla Dar, cant land any spells on her unless your standing underher when casting like under her belly btw she drops a its like 6/stats/resists all/all talisman, with Improved damage 3 /hint /hint great for twinking your casters for any lvl since you can /zone /target harla dar /warp and then loot =) I have never seen any gms in this zone in the past year its a pretty safe zone to do this in.

There's also and quick and easy way to farm tribute from PoJustice. The Trial of Flame has 2 different named mob that spawn randomly. They have seperate loot tables and drop 2 different items a piece.

What you do is: Get to the trial area. Find out which trial is Flame, and make sure it isn't currently being used. Say the phrase, "I am ready to begin the trial of Flame," to begin. Once in the trial, run next to the Agent of the tribunal. Wait for the trial to begin. Check if either a burning nemesis or a fiery aggressor spawns. If none of them are up during the first wave of the trial, simply wait for the mobs to despawn, and say "return" to the Agent of the Tribunal. Rinse and repeat.

The lock out for the trial is like a few minutes if you do it that way, so you can keep killing and killing for tribute items. The mobs in this trial are easily soloable by any level 70 character with decent AA and loot.

Didn't think it stacked far as i knew. Everywhere i read always said it didn't, but never tested. Anyone confirm it stacks past cap?

 

[zippy42167]

all tribute counts as "worn" effects. depending on the effect, they can stack, but will never allow you to go over the normal "worn" caps.

i.e. if you have max 20 mana regen, but have FT 19 worn, you can only make use of FT1 tribute, otherwise you're wasting it.

i.e. if you have 34% haste, and get 36% haste tribute, you will have 36% haste.

i.e. if you have 240 atk, and buy Vengeance X tribute, you only make use of Vengeance II, so you waste the rest.

stuff like that...

You sure about the haste thing? I heard it was like a bard song and when i turn it on for my char who has 36% haste and i think i had it at 31% haste or whichever is below the 41% one and it seemed like he hit faster.

All tribute stuff counts as worn stuff ... 1000% positive this is true.

Unless you're talking about the hp/ac/mana stuff, the only people tribute is really any good for are the undergeared. Most high-end folk will be capped on the important things anyways.

There are a few mobs in the PoJ caves that have some nice tribute value ranging from 6k to 30k. May want to watch them on track. Cant remember their names though, sorry.
