Default cheap Torpor

I seem to recall, back in the day....one of the spots for getting torpor was the guardian wurms in skyfire.

Pretty tricky things tho!

tbh I hate that zone so I havent been there yet on p99. Am assuming these get killed alot?

Anyone killed these recently?

Don't know if torpor drops off them or not. A-Team kills them if we're bored and don't have anything better to do. I know they've dropped some other level 60 spells though (VoG and disintigrate for us, recently), so I assume they can drop torpor also, although infrequently.

Need a pretty solid group of 60s to do them really.

I've never seen it personally drop there but others have. A 60 monk witIh tash sticks and decent gear + torpor shaman can duo them. Its pretty fun albeit kind of sketchy. Definitely bring a full group if you want to down all 3 and beat the pop timer.

I don't think this is accurate, those wurms are pretty mean. They are slowable though so nothing crazy if you bring a few friends.

Def can be duo with a monk a lot of effort/skill by both.

i wouldnt make that bet bc i dont doubt it can be done, i just doubt that your going to do it repeatedly for hours until torpor drops. if you want to farm the wurms for torpor you probably arnt going to do it with a monk/shm combo consistently, i would make that bet.

If monk/sham can duo yendar (cons red to 60) id say these wurms are duoable as well.


I kinda agree though there's something off about drop rates of spells here. On live for example, Regrowth of the grove was insanely rare, sold for 30k up through velious if you could even find one. Here you practically have to give it away though, and torpor is worth more here than it ever was on live and seems to drop way less frequently.

Everyone is going to say oh there are so many shamans, but there are just as many druids if not more. Also, the fact that kunark has been out so long should logically drop prices down, yet the price has gone up on torpor/bane of nife as well as some other high level spells.

I wasn't under the impression that all dropped spells had the same drop rate, but compared to live it seems like some spells are wayy too rare.

Granted p99 economy is fucked as is the class composition of the server, I still don't get the pricing/rarity of some spells...am I missing something? Does each spell have a different drop rate, are some just insanely rare or is it the random number generator just being a prick? Lol I never remember any spells on live selling for 50k plat.

Most other items fall in the general area of percieved value as was compared to live except like 5 spells, is this weird to anyone else?
