Tier two Dungeons and the rewards.

drexci

After running eToS about 6-7 times and eCC once the other night I came away with around 25 rad and about 120 seals of the protector.

After the first couple of runs I ran out of epic dungeon keys and had to buy them from the WB ( I know they're cheaper on the ah but I'm not giving somebody with rank 12 vip my astrials) ( It's not fair that they can just sit in pe buying stuff off the WB and selling on the AH and earn more that way then actually playing the game) anyway I ended up spending 30k ad on keys.

So after my 8 runs I'm down 5k ad. I'm left with my seals of the protector which I'm only spending on my armor. I could of course buy weapon enchantment shards at 100 each. I checked least night at the cost of shards (vorpal and negation) and wow for 4 shards of vorpal it's 60k ad and for 1, yeah 1 shard of negation it's 17k ad!

Considering we used to get these in the chests and for FREE during dungeon delves I find it crazy that the best thing you can farm from Tier two dungeons atm are shards of negation.

Is there any chance of profession stuff dropping like dragon eggs, elemental aggregate or unified elements, even good potions that persist through death or decent rare transmute equipment. Atm it's not worth even playng t2's the armor will be obsolete in a couple of weeks when SH comes out

You mean seal of the elements.

IIRC The seals of protector are also used to get the new armor (in Mod 7).
Also the skirmishes drop other things e.g. SoT drops campaign books which are pretty valuable.
But I agree that the current loot schedule isn't quite generous.

P.S. Please try making your posts shorter where possible by stating only the relevant facts.

It was the best of times it was the worst of times...

Dungeon rewards are perfectly fine, one thing which buggs me that they took the others down for renovation, bring em back already, uncut pls.

My buddy got the Waters artifact out of ECC final chest last night. I wasnt aware that happened.
If you have the space save every piece of salvageable material untill next 2x salvage. Its the only way to make it worth anything really. It should be coming around sooner than later. My guess is within the next couple weeks.

How you can think dungeon rewards are "perfectly fine" nem3sls blows my mind. The reduced rewards are 80% of the reason the economy tanked. 99% of what comes from them are bound to account. So theres no way to get lucky on rolls anymore. Rolling on loot was half the fun of running dungeons. The items with salvageable value have now been cut in half. Then theres the amount of protector seals you get per run. 10 per run and thats only if you have or can afford a dundeon key to get the last 4 from the chest. It takes 1800 to get your elven gear. thats a <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> ton of runs. Yes theres the satchel, 40 per day. It still leaves you feeling incredibly bored with the same runs.

It is unfortunate. Dungeon running is catered to people who have VIP and get the 3 keys a day and you get the free dungeon key in town. so thats 4 keys a day. its definately much harder to make AD now. But we gotta find a way and go with it. Will just take time.

Yes the large ticket item are mainly gone but so is the ridiculous prices in AH. I have advanced so much further now this MOD due to the fall of inflation. Yes, so few dungeons is boring but so is the commute home from work. You are playing a video game and if the only reason you are bored is from turning the game on then take a break. I run one maybe two T2 a night and that's fine by me. 2/4 Elven current and enjoying the stress free progress. Farming artifacts from Valindra or Malibog chest, Dragon Heralds for artifact equipment can still net good AD. Sell all unbound refinement stones. You can make easy time currency still without walking into a dungeon.

Yeah I hear you, but you can drop artifacts from bosses/ chests to sell and salvage is way lower but still fine. Also bound gear eliminated those HAMSTER boot looting, at a price sure thing.

The variety of dungeons is not the best, still we have valindra, mala, kessel, lol, cc, sot, tow and gwd - something to do at least.

It takes time but I for my part have my gwf in full elven, my DC 2 of 4 elven, going slowly but going.

Also downfall of the economy was Tiamat.

Hey good thing is no more overpriced t2 gear in ah.

^^^^^

Last time I looked, those old T2 gear was still UBER expensive

...it's not like we're collecters! I just wanted to outfit my neglected level 61 GWF that I pillaged to fund my CW!

Wow, some people already got all the full Elven set...
Elemental Evil shipped on September 8, 44 days ago. One run a day is 50 seals. Also you can run every 18 hours...
So I guess yes, if you knew what to do you'd be able to get it that fast.
Now a million or so of AD and you can get all Elemental Elven.

Save your AD IMO, next sets can go elemental as well.
