Thurgadin leather armor help
 

Sup guys! So, I’ve been looking to purchase an Eroded Leather Tunic for some time now with no luck, I’m told people rarely sell them now days.

Looking at the wiki they can drop in Kael from 35+ mobs. How rare is it to farm from the lower mobs? Any advice on which mobs I should target?

Would like to solo if possible. I have a 60 Druid, 54 Shaman and 53 Necro.

Thanks!

Can charm mega-wolves with druid but I'd suggest a trio with cleric and enchanter so you can do top arena with mana sieve, ch and even fear for your snare but I'm just a groupist that never solos...

Plus they don't need leather and druid does - for loot logic

Appreciate the info! I’m trying not to ask for help from others, but I guess it would be worth it to them if I paid 1/3 of the value and split the others drops with them yeah?

Eveyone is a winner in a successful group. I'd love to help but my PC is four states away and i haven't figured out how to play on a flip phone... Yet.

lol! Appreciate it. Although, I saw a thread where someone was able to play on a raspberry pi so.. :p

It does cost more, not too much more though, but Skyshrine (SS armor) is the better bet. People still do HoT compared to Kael, it’s too far into Velious that anyone is camping arena on the regular. There’s some plate house groups once in a while, that would be your best bet if you are really inclined to do so.

I was thinking about that, but the rep grind is already done with Thurg. Although, the shade of green for the SS armor does look cool 😎

I was actually looking, seems like a lot of the stuff I killed to raise Coldain faction also raised COV? Maybe I’m not too far off.

There are usually faction pulls done on the WL side of Kael as a lot of raid guilds keep needing toons to be max ally with CoV for various reasons. That and if you can be around for a statue or aow kill the grind can be pretty easy.

I believe the weakest mobs in Kael that drop armor are the mobs at 4 way. Its not uncommon to see someone soloing or a small group killing there. Chest pieces would be the rarest of the different armor slots and even then you have a 1/4 chance that its leather that drops which is why you don't really see them up for sale. Outside of plate armor because of plate house there isn't really an abundance of Thurgadin Armor drops out there. I would expect it would take a month or 2 of consistent grinding to get a leather BP to drop going that route, maybe longer (I don't think I've ever seen one drop).

As someone mentioned if you spent the same time and effort farming plat, even simply porting people, you can probably get a SS leather tunic as soon or sooner as there is more abundance of SS armor drops as people frequent HoT a lot more than Kael arena.

If you obtained your Coldain faction by killing giants then you probably have even better faction in SS than you do Thurg, the SS armor does require Ally but, as also mentioned, you can literally hang out at the WL zoneline when a guild is doing faction pulls and tag the mobs for 300+ faction boost each pull (can be done every 30 mins). Not to mention if you tag some of the Kael bosses which also get faught at the zoneline (especially statue/AoW) you can get big CoV faction boosts from that too.
