Goblin Gazughi Ring - Minimum Level?

[Swish]

I knew someone on blue that spent days there (literally) with no luck.

One other thing - if you're too low to kill soothsayers quickly, don't bother with this camp. The goblins and sarnaks hate each other. Soothsayers make short work of any couriers that spawn, so you need to take out any soothsayer that comes near the spawn area.

I've XPed there with multiple characters from before level 20, xp slows down about 22. Always get plenty of couriers, must have killed many dozens if not over 100s of the things. Always get bloodstone rings and spirit catchers [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

What do people think the drop rate is?

I've camped ~10 rings on Blue. I've gotten gazughi rings in as little as 2 hours, and I've gone as long as 8 hours before giving up for the night.. usually 10-12 spirit catchers to 1 Gazughi ring.

Hard to say the drop rate since I never kept track of bloodstone rings/actual courier spawns, if I had to guesstimate I'd work off the last time I had one drop at the 7 hour mark (and assuming no combat time):
7 hours=420mins*2 spawns per min=840 per spawnpoint*2 spawnpoints=1680 PHs at ruins camp.
Even a highball of 50 couriers over 7 hours (50/1680) is ~3% spawn rate, and puts you at a 2% drop rate (which is probably too high). I believe the wiki's 1% is accurate.

Still a decent cash camp... selling at 6-8k you're looking at 1k/hour which is respectable for solo cash farms.. minus the constant attention you're having to pay.

Nothing quite like a courier spawning and immediately aggroing a goblin to make you curse.

Yea, I'm going to wait for a few more levels and if I get bored and don't feel like doing the heavy xp grind then I'll go check the ring out.

So for now, I will just stick with hiding to break the charm. If that doesn't work then occasionally getting 50% xp for a mob kill is better than getting nothing at all...
