Power of Fire
Hello all, relatively new to the Green server.. played a long time on live, but enjoying my 1st toon here and the super helpful community. I did a search and nothing really jumped out, but I'm hunting for the Power of Fire for my epic ..
I've gotten about ~50 kills on Blazing Elementals in Sola and not seeing one drop.. I checked on a few sites and looks like it should drop (Magelo indicated something like a 1% drop vs. 27% from the Lava Elemental back behind the gnome fort). Question.. does this quest item actually drop from the Blazing Elemental? Has anyone seen it in this Efreeti tunnel location? I wasn't sure if that was something that was added later. Question.. Is the Lava Elemental the way to go? From all I've read, less spawns/higher chance vs. guaranteed spawns/low chance.. Any advise is greatly appreciated. I don't mind it taking a long time to drop, just want to make sure the mob I'm hunting actually drops it.. It's kind of a pain in the rear getting back to the LE because 1) I'm a DE and 2) my 51 pet likes to warp through the walls and come back to me some random way, usually with a bunch of unfriendlies. Was thinking about making it guard and then summon it to prevent the above. Thanks for making this a great community!! Aeildar 52 Elementalist | ||

Thanks Samoht! I love the Wiki, have like 5 tabs up at all time.. appreciate the thread link also (nice to know I'm not going crazy).. makes sense that it's super rare off the BE's.. I'll give the LE a swing!

Definitely go for the Lava Elemental, it seems to drop off of him every time. You can keep his PH down as well as the Blazings if you're creative. I have a good write up of the quest here if you have other questions:

Who wants to break the unfortunate news to this guy that ultimately Mage epic is virtually impossible to get on P99

Yea, i've read about the staff drop and all that good stuff.. but honestly, I love questing and wouldn't mind having all my ducks in a row in case something gets modified and the drops rates get a little friendlier. Another plus is I am getting to work through some zones that I never really got a chance to on live (started with Luclin)..
Really do appreciate all the feedback everyone. Thanks again, Aeildar | ||

I think what people are forgetting (or never realized) is that the mage epic weapon is temporary. The actual reward is a spell that you scribe into your book, which when cast, summons the mage epic weapon, which has 1 charge of Summon Awesome Pet. And as mage summoned items are wont to do, it poofs when you log. So, no, you're not going to see mages running around with their epic weapon in their hand, unless you're in a group with said mage. So good luck on your epic quest, may the gods of Norrath smile on you in your travels. | |||

The mage epic is gatekept by Magi pasta, who only spawns once every 3 days or so, and often doesn't even drop the epic piece. As a result, a server only sees maybe one new mage epic a week, if that, and it only goes to the top mages in the top guilds (only they have "bot" characters and teams of players logging into them to track pasta during his crazy long spawn window).
