Currently the only way to obtain these items for the Emperyeon shield and harp are to kill the Tier 3 VNM in the hero's areas.
While in itself is a chore to obtain, one of the issues is there players just trying to obtain seals from the T2 and 3 NMs may also be farming these.
With the Abyssea adjustments announced my question is could you be more specific as to what upgrade items are being updated. Is it a specific few or all of them?
