Default So level 48's can harvest T8?

Oh, the plat pharmers are licking their motherfucking lips. Good job.

Same thing with the master spells still fucking dropping off of trash. Good motherfucking job. Won't it be nice when your Adept 3 customers taper off again to nothing because these things are all over the place.

Ad3 customers always drop off to nothing a few weeks after a level raise, no one wants less than the best so they beg borrow and steal for rares right away and get masters after. Anyone who was gonna shell out the money and effort for ad3 spells is already doing it now and will soon be done leveling if they aren't done already.

Not trying to derail your point tho, something should definitely be done about the farming there. No one should be able to even harvest the place if they aren't a level 65 tser as that's when the quest starts for us. Even better, 70, as that's when you can do the ts quest that gets you faction.

Not much can be done about the plat farmers.. as long as they pay the subscription fee and do nothing wrong and don't get caught selling (and by that same token, if a player gets caught buying) plat, they're all good. Sad, cuz we all know who they are, but true.

Default Re: So level 48's can harvest T8?

Tell me where the master spells are dropping. I am now in the Jarsath doing the quest lines there after having completed the majority of the quest lines in the other new zones and out of ALL those MANY KILLs not one master spell has dropped only adept 1 spells.

The instance zones have very RARELY dropped masters when I grouped in them.

So where ARE all these masters spell drops coming from that you are complaining about???? Tell me where and what so I can go get a trash master spell drop for my toons. If the master spells are dropping as you say they are then I should not have any problems getting one. Your account of master spells dropping is highly exaggerated since I have yet to get even one and not the first master chest from the overland areas and rarely a master spell drop in the instance zones.

Six days ago a guildie disco'd Bolt of Ice from a trash drop. Later that night while killing 80^^^'s in Sebilis, the Rays of Disintegration server disco landed right in my lap. Not even an hour later another groupmate gets the Bloodletter disco. Two or three days ago I was killing solo mobs in JW and the warden melee skill buff dropped.

Named mobs? Not even. All trash.

Masters always have a small chance to drop from trash mobs (I don't know if this is just in dungons, or game wide. I have gotten masters off trash in both SoS and Kaladim). Maybe you are just fighting more trash mobs than you did in EoF, or maybe you are a lucky SOB

Oh, and your harvesting level is set biased upon your highest level, either it being adventuring or tradeskilling.

With this in mind, i see no problem with an adventure level 48 going out and harvesting if they can skirt aggro.

I have to agree with Aela. I think you've just had a streak of good luck. Bastard! (j/k)

As far as the level 48 harvesting, pardon me for not doing the math but is that the adventure level required to get your harvesting up enough for T8? That does seem really low. I remember this being brought up in beta though and a dev said that this tier followed the same formula as all previous tiers. If its their tradeskill that's high enough to harvest t8, I see nothing wrong with it either.

If you aren't T8 in any way, then I don't see any reason why you need to be muscling in on and disrupting T8 players and the T8 economy. THIS is the character in question. Fucker isn't even T6 in any regard whatsoever.

And getting masters off of trash isn't like finding a lucky penny but finding a lucky Mercedes. It's a system that doesn't reward hard work, solid skill, or even time invested, just dumb luck.

Ok, that is screwed up. I can understand being able to harvest a tier half a tier early to prepare maybe but that is way too soon imo.

Oh, and why does he have a reforming stone equipped? Strange.
