This is probably incorrect. Again, if Goblin Ring was that easy to get, it wouldn't be worth 5-6k in 2025 after 10+ years of farming. Everyone would have one for cheap. That's how the economy works. I'll trust the prices over a simple claim.

Most camp you can kill 2-3 mobs and afk 25 minutes while this one you have to find your PH and basically staple your eyelids open for 8 hours if you're not terribly unlucky. Most people don't enjoy that camp. I haven't seen all that many rings for sale in EC.
I crunched the table's average time to drop and it was about 8 hours if you remove the outliers, about 25 couriers.
Honestly for plat farming, most of the spots i mentionned are often taken. I showed up at nybright a dozen times early 2024 and I never got it. I guess gargoyles are the same, being in OOT I didn't bother. Dalnir brutes are forever taken, never seen them open and honestly you want to exp actively it is a shit camp.
I guess most people won't have that kind of money until their 40s. If you really want the ring there are 2 ways to do it that makes sense in my opinion as a druid.
1- Get to 40s and camp it.
2- Get to 40s and quad wyverns/guards until you got your 6k. I think that's probably more effective than going out of your way for pocket change.
I came back to EQ on a nostalgia field trip with p99 and i did the scenic route while leveling (tradeskills, shawl, lots of self found gear, epic parts, questing) but in the end loramin's right, all the money you can make on the way to 60 is mostly garbage until you're in your mid 50s or so. I probably made more money in frenzy in a week than I did 1-56. If you can make money while getting good exp that's cool but I wouldn't slack on exp for money.
Just my 2 cents from someone who wasted A LOT of time getting his main to 60.
