![]() ![]() Refuge of the Apostate (needs Kara Korum port, long travel times) - can be higher if you need Legion/Scarlet Circle reputation or quest tokensĤ. Dead Man's Isle (less quick, but same port)ģ. Isle of Iron Statues (10-15 min, Turan port gets you just in front of the dungeon)Ģ. Greatest return of investment (HM Tokens / time):ġ. I agree: HM Tokens are pretty quick to farm in solo dungeons, and they force you learn your class abilities and movement, too. The undead pirates on the Island do drop Solider Kits, but the drop rate is pretty low (0-2 per run) compared to 6-14 bags in the other instances. While I'm sure it's been commonly used, I wouldn't recommend this tactic as if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.Īll of the instances, outside of Isle of the Iron Statues, the mobs tend to drop bags that contain money, alchemy components, esteem tokens, and Mastery manuals. I'm not sure if it's a glitch that removes the 18 hour cool down or if it is working as intended. If you follow the group tactic shown on Conan College ( ), you can get more Imperial Insignias. Unless you really, really want some Imperial Insignias. While this is a fun instance, I'd use it mostly as a barometer for whether you're ready to make the jump from Dead Man's Hand to Refuge of the Apostate. I valued my time more than 11 silver and then having to run through Kara Korum being chased by half the mobs between Ghost Hill and Fendgu.įorgotten City, while used to give between 1 and 2 rares, seems pretty stuck on 1 rare based on the 16 runs I did. The optional ring quest you pick up just outside the instance was something that I often took and then returned when I did my next run, essentially only running it every other time. And we really like paths that take you back to the quest giver. But, to some extent, we all like vendor trash. Refuge offers a blue weapon at the end of the instance, although chances are, it won't be as good as the weapon you already had just to get through it. Anvil of Crom's walk through ( ) is pretty good while AOC Wikia has a nice map of the maze area ( ) (which will help make sense of the levers there). Refuge of the Apostate is probably your next best choice from a pure Rares/minute effort. Once I've killed enough animals, I generally make a run for it to the rez pad before the final Ape boss where a pack of savage animals cut me down. The main reason, other than I'm bad at platforming (being a keyboard turner and all), is that you get credit for animal kills for the minion spiders (and they don't pose a serious threat). Typically, once I get up on the second ledge to get away from the panthers and giant birds, I follow the path until the boss spider. Slith has a good walkthrough ( ) while this video by Kay Bee below shows some short cuts to make hard mode a little less hard. This, however, is the most difficult of the four instances. Forgotten City only grants 1-2 Rare Tokens.įrom a pure rares-per-hour, nothing beats Isle of the Iron Statues. Iron Statue's Hard mode also grants an additional 2-3 Rare Tokens.

When I wrote the guide to Dead Man's Hand's main quest line, I ran the instance 18 times to get an idea of how much gold, Esteem Tokens, etc. And having done it to get the Children of Yag shield, the Hyrkanian Chest and necklace (on different toons), it is also very tedious. Solo farming for rares is just partial retard and everybody knows you never go full retard. Doing Nightmare Bubbles would be full retard. Someone on the forums had said farming solo instances like Refuge of the Apostate, Isle of the Iron Statues, Forgotten City (Unchained), and Dead Man's Hand (Unchained) for rares was full retard.
