New method is actually not that hard once you isolate QM's placeholder. That's the hard part that involves gathering a train and killing it as fast as possible and watching track 78 seconds later. But once you identify the mob that pops a new PH every 78 seconds you can churn through Quillmanes pretty quick till you get a cloak.

And I hear they even upped the % for the cloak not too long ago, too.

I wasn't a fan of them changing the method vs. the old one, for practicality's sake, but I saw the dev interview and it DOES seem like the new method is more classic.

Honestly, having a 39+ ranger is pretty fun, and becomes lucrative if you choose to go that route. Peggy cloaks, Jboots, heck I even made a quick 1k farming two copies of Visions of Sebilite recently. Plus if you slap an Ikky BP or Fungi and a woodsman's staff one one, you level to that range pretty damn easily.
My point with QM is that it should have been changed during the next reset, not smack in the middle of the server life cycle. Again it seems to me this entire scenario came from someone who was trying to get a cloak but couldn’t because a guild or group were holding that camp. There was someone taking orders for cloaks and charging like 4k pp. so it was impossible to get a cloak since it was pretty much perma camped. So they bitched to the devs about how the current system was not classic and dug up some posts and videos on how they thought it should spawn.

Even the dev who came up with the spawn was not 100% on how it was spawned. He just stayed it was thrown into the spawn cycle of a bunch of low level mobs and spawned off a percentage of that group. No mention on spawn timers etc.
