Researching Circle of Force (34)

[Shodo]

Any wizards out there have some advice on where to hunt/vendor for the runes? I've checked through Rathe Mountains, Oasis near spectres, & OT outpost so far with no luck. I'm just now 34, can anyone remember a dungeon/camp they grouped in with lots of rune drops? (Need mob levels 34-39ish)

I thought i remembered getting them in rathe...you try lavastorm rings? Centaurs? Aviaks? NK?

Kill mobs that are around level 35-39. I've had the runes drop off of kobolds in Sol B, undead frogs in Lower Guk and other things in that level range. The royals camp in particular would probably be ideal for you. The Rune of Concussion is also used in a level 49 spell and will drop off higher level mobs in the planes as well as lower level mobs. It might be a little easier to find than the others.

Also, sometimes ya gotta buy out some inventory from merchants until they show you what you want

O.o... I was completely unaware of this. So, if you buy out an item, it replaces it with an item from backlog, rather than leaving an empty slot for the next item sold (which is how I assumed it worked) ?

NPCs have a hidden inventory of about 20-30 items.

It should replace up to that point and after that open up hidden slots. They don't remember EVERY item sold to it to keep a memory bank of 200 items though. Atleast they didn't in classic, never really tested it out here.

Great, thanks - tested it a little last night, still a crapshoot but my odds go up I guess. Looks like I'll be heading off to LGuk/SolB.

Somewhat embarrassingly, I'm pretty sure the hidden inventory is more than 20-30 items.

I made one of these last week+ gave away a bag of runes too.
Like some have said, just vendor dive for what u can find.
Buy up the 3 beers, 1 bat wing & re-click vendor to see if anything new appears.
Still have a few runes in bank if anyone needs, lmk

I saw these runes drop fairly decently in Kaesora. Saw Rune of Banding drop x3.
