HGL Guides - Good Essence Farming : FPS / MMORPG / RTS Discussion

I have found many people saying they have problems finding essences, well they are really easy to get.

First method, you can go to Shulgoth, the lvl 5 version, and kill any rare, unique monsters you find, they drop them, on top of that shulgoth can drop one to, i was getting 3-4 a run last night.

Other method is to run stonehenge itself, the first zone with the bosses has tons of rare and unique monsters that usually drop them, i actually got 5 in a run there, but it takes much more time.

Can members say yay or nay to this being moved to a confirmed section.

This works and even more so now they uped the drop rate with last patch, can usually get the 5 you use to kill the boss during your run through each zone in wallow, got 6 sets just last night in wallow,

nay...
i kill a rare and i'll get an essence, i get more essences then i need

bump for more yays and nays.

more essences then you need? that is not even heard of if you play a lot, we are always running out becuase we farm the bosses, if you run through the game and that's all you do and never do stoneheng, then yeah you will have a ton, demon drop left and right but the rest are hard to come by.

Not sure how you have more then you know what to do with then you don't run SH a lot or you never do at all.

[tault_jonolee]

i do SH, in in a hce guild so we farm often, and we pretty much do nothing but SH
every single rare will drop an essence and we always go in huge parties, we have way more then we need

plus i don't see how this is farming, your just stating the obvious...rares drop essences. It's like saying wear high luck so rares will spawn then farm them

so nay

[drewts86]

yay. I get tons of essences from Stonehenge
