Open question: How do YOU sock 2+ day spawns when you're not home?
 
I'd like to get some of the communities thoughts on the most efficient ways of camping mobs with several day spawn times.

Context:
I'm coming up on the last few drops for Enchanter epic (2-4 days) in Neriak and Cabilis. Trying to come up with efficient methods of camping these. I considered turning my twitch stream on while I am at work so I can check on it periodically.

The only issue with this is I don't think it'll kick my login at home off if I log in from my laptop at work. It'll just give me the "You already have a character logged in" message.


How do you combat this bottleneck for quests?

It sounds like you can log in at work, so stay logged in on your laptop? I guess there's a reason this isn't an option or else you wouldn't need a thread.

You can ask someone (or pay someone) to camp it for you, I know one of my guildmates was doing that. They'd just have to hit you up using your favorite chat client to tell you to log in and loot it.

Take a vacation and never sleep. Do meth to stay awake the entire window.

I just saw a thread on someone selling loot rights for 80k for these camps. Which made my eye twitch. So that pretty much axed my ability to complete these pieces unless I buy them. Kind of demoralizing but I guess I'm just butthurt lol

I can log in if need be, but staying logged in at work isn't really possible. Which is unlucky. I wasn't sure there was a way to kick my login at home to log in from work. From reading it sounds like these camps are duoable. So even if I was able to log in from work the chances of me getting there with someone to kill would be too late.

This actually sounds like the most realistic method for these camps on p99 :D

Clearly this thread is what Brad would have wanted (and yes, there are multiple levels to that bad sarcastic joke).

Why not just form a farming group with those items put on reserve like torpor last time?

Drozlin and Verena are fairly easy mobs as epic mobs go (just need a competent force of mid 50s or 60s), the problem has always been mobilizing that force within an hour or two of their spawn.

That requires a halfway active guild or friends that cares about you. :)
