    That's funny cuz before new horizons update noone have been farming aba and sot for books
    books. Only recently they became spammed by sins due to the sin and psychic books that were available only there. Other classes could get all of their skills with pof, obp or token pages. I believe they removed the drops to nerf sins controlling the market which in all fairness to other classes is really fair.

    You don't need to play a sin to farm Aba/Sot though

    This. I'm doing it with my Seeker, but could probably do it with any class given that I gear some of them a bit.

    1. its not hard to do solo abba
    2. if they hadn't changed abba/sot there wouldn't be an issue, since more people ran that than fsp
    I <3 A lot of people

    People now have ridiculously OP stats, hp, dmg, def from various sources, nuema, meridian, avatar cards, passive skills that boost dmg and def, every1 can solo good old peachy.

    I never said that only sins run it but mainly only cuz it takes us less time to do so. My point though was that before new horizons noone farmed it anymore, therefore I don't see how removing the books from those instances could affect non reborn players since everyone either bought or crafted their skills until now anyway.

    There have always been quite a few people that farmed Seat/Aba long before it was altered, including myself, well I guess only Seat since it takes less time to do, but still, now people are crazy over it because they think they might get a book worth 100m +, and they the majority don`t even know the odds and amount of books that may drop, getting 1 of those rare skill books is pretty much like getting a SOT from packs.

    Exactly,that's my point that's why I don't understand all the QQ about moving the book drops to FSP, since if this happened before primal skills were implemented noone would give a damn...

    Thank you for the info indeed! While unfortunate that the books may have been moved from aba and SoT, it's not like that many people killed those bosses outside of culti, and in Hellfire's case, weekly quest. There were those who farmed yes, but I'm sure those who could solo those instances should have no problem with solo/duoing FSP normal mode.

    I think since books can drop from normal mode it might actually be better, more of a chance to get something with several bosses instead of just one boss that is a pain in the butt to get to, like Peach, or kill, like Hellfire.

    Indeed, normal mode is far, far more forgiving on mistakes than Deicide mode. I'm guessing the same bosses that drop in Deicide drop in normal; which would be frog, blossom and mushi as far as I heard. Though for people with low damage output (like me >_>) normal mode takes quite a while to do. I'd suggest if you have any means of purging you should bring them with you, aswell as an interrupt because blossom's heal can be quite annoying.

    You can get Bramble Rage to interrupt its healing, just hope the CD will be over till the next healing time, not sure which other genie skills have interrupting capabilities, I`ll try to run it maybe 2morrow, will see, curious how fast it will go, but I guess I can only do till Succubus, since I won`t be able to kill phy immune mob, or it will take ages, in other words, not worth it. b:surrender

    Actually, bramble rage is quite extreme for something as easy as that. I simply used earthquake, because my genie allowed me to get it without changing the point setup. Lightning chaser also works (note for Seekers: genie interrupts, even with 100% chance can still fail if you have a stance up). I didn't count the seconds, but the way blossom works is Stand Together / Dispersedly every 30 seconds, and a few seconds after casting that, it will random between Reel in / Sleep / Self heal. Either way, there is a 30 second window between those (that if you count she heals each time, which of course won't happen).

    Well consider you're also doing more book-dropping bosses in that time. Though I have to admit it takes a while. I guess some people are missing all that apsing other instances in a few minutes huh?

    S'far as books go, it's only tideborns (and a bm book afaik) that have those awful drop rate exclusive books. All earthguard books can be gotten with pages pretty easily.

    I keep asking myself why only tideborns have all this trouble for 3 simple books
    I mean, why not do the same for every class ?
    Or every race can have the skills via Page/FB89 or none... It is supposed to be this way, come on ...

    Because they're OP.

    Now being serious, they are OP. OP things make people go crazy in P2W games like this one. For PWE it is bussiness, when you can't afford something you farm or cash shop, but most efficient farmer just throw some cash to make it easier.

    No official confirmation as far as I know. So if we're putting it that way, we can't be 100% sure they don't. Although with thousands of runs done across all servers since the update and no book drops I highly doubt they still do.

    Just had a drop off normal mode mushi. I guess that confirms the bosses that drop in deicide also drop in normal. I've tried doing more SoT/Aba runs and as it seems book drops really are gone from there :c.
