AOC Exploits - Epic zone bug : Age of Conan Guides, Bots & Tools

This was included in my post "various exploits" but I thought I would make a seperate post for it because I can personally confirm it.

Zone into Conall's Valley "Elite" (possibly other zones too). Kill the Yrmish
bosses. They are level 32 elite, as a level 42 they could barely hurt me (stamina/health potions helped keep me full).
I got 4 green drops and a blue shield from one boss with almost no effort. Instead of rarely dropping loot they drop it all the time, and are very easy for someone of higher level.

Enjoy!


Edit: it would be cool if people can post other zones/bosses that this works in, as well as which bosses drop which unique items. Anyone have a link to loot tables of bosses?

Note: Loot for all bosses is bugged in Elite mode (but Yrmish bosses are the ones I can confirm drop blues).

hmm.. I have been doing this now for a couple of hours and this is what I have found....

The bosses in Epic does indeed drop alot of random greens, and quite often they drop blue loot. However, after killing Jorgrimm a total of 10 times (without zoning, dying or anything, just letting him repop and killing him) He only ever drops one blue item. Its Dark Heart, and offhand talisman. It is unique so you cant loot it after the first time. The same goes for all 4 bosses in that camp. they all drop one, unique blue item, so farming this more then once is a waste of time.

However, i can recommend all who are 47/48 to do this in the Burning sanctum for example, where you can 'farm' the bosses for the loot that they drop. and some nice loot it is plus around 2.5 silver per boss kill in there.

This might be worthwhile in the 'sewers' type dungeon off of Old Tarantia - there is a crocodile boss mob straight ahead from the entrance int he room with all of the crocs who normally drops a green belt with a DD proc (74-150 poison damage chance on being hit). The belt itself is really nice, but if there's a blue elite version it might be worth it..

As a tip, if you happen to be in a zone fighting a lot of NPCs who drop inferior claws, meat, etc, it can actually be worthwhile to keep them. A stack of 20 from level 20-ish mobs sells for 4cp, and stacks can hold up to 100 making it more cost effective to keep these stackable items to vend than many of the blue drops.

I killed the crocodile boss in elite and he dropped SIX of the green belts at once, no blue belt to be had. Funny thing is that you can only loot one of the belts because they are unique.

As for the bosses always dropping the same blue items with a limit of 1, I did get a blue ring off of one of the Ymir bosses in a tent which did not have a limit of 1 (sorry forgot which one).

today's patch nerf's this, you can no longer solo epic/elite mobs, they damage you as if they were your level even if they are 30 levels under you.
