The Flame Geode Thread...... Again.

Lol. Ok. Have they proven TH helps with timed drops like beastman seals or crests and such? Was under the influence TH didn't help geodes. Thf kills slow. That's why you're having issues. Go on an actual DD and try again.

Actually, Geodes/Avatarites are NOT timed drops; at least not 5-minute timed drops like seals/crests.

It was blink-and-you-miss-it testing but that now-broken image was a screenshot of two breeze geodes in Nynja's treasure pool.

Anyway, if you're geode farming specifically (which you are), you're targetting mobs between 60 and 80, on which a THF is perfectly free to sub WAR, ride berserk with cheap food to cap attack, and totally obliterate as fast if not faster than any two-hand job.

No. Thf in no way can compete with any 2 hand DD in solo situations. Fact. And that image isn't working. I'm assuming that there was an alliance in play. You can get 1 geode/ite every 5 minutes PER alliance. SO you can get 3 in 5 minutes. Otherwise I have never seen a x2 in 5 minutes.

[scaevola]

No, it was Nynja and two mules; one party.

You can also log out and log back in to restart timer.

[scaevola]

i am trying to come up with a better way to say "why would you do that"

[Fupafighter]

Because logging out takes 30 seconds. Restarts timer. Meaning you can get one every 2 minutes if you're lucky enough.

Ok, let me put this another way.

Are you suggesting he falsified his data? This would be a really weird and pointless thing to lie about.

I'm saying that if someone in his party accidental DCed and he didn't notice, he could have infact gotten 2 via "log out" method. Not saying it's false, just saying that could have happened. 1 random extra geode after how long makes me think that that's what may have happened or he beat the odds. Or please show me actual testing.

[scaevola]

He would notice a DC, because those are his mules.

At any rate, the implication of his post is that it's happened multiple times* and that was the example he had at his convenience.

I am of course not him so I can't swear by his experiences**, but with ALL THE GEODE FARMING HE'D DONE, if the double drop had happened once and a DC were involved I think he would have found that relevant.




*Vermy is one of the mules; the man has farmed waaaay more geodes than I or I assume you ever will


**I don't have a mule and don't keep my game logs so if two geodes dropped for me in five minutes I wouldn't even notice because really, what does that change

[Nawesemo]

I'm in the zoning does something camp.
