i tried camping Drosco for a pretty long time, never saw him once. maybe i was in the wrong spot. eventually i said "screw it, its not worth the EXP i'm missing by being here."

I tried on Red too, waited there for 2 hours killing cubes, He might be a rare spawn....

the rats are social with each other so dont touch them.

Most direct route to Drosco is the sewer opening at the S. Qeynos Fishing Docks. Heres a map.

if you hear some garbled .wav file voice say "spare a copper milord?", your copy of titanium isn't haunted, the begger NPC says it from time to time and its fucking creepy.

same room as the nesting rats that drop that 3CHA locket?

I took maybe an hour to get drosco to pop for me on Red. Lemme MS Paint you some more specific info.

From a min/max standpoint, you're best bet is to grind bone chips, silk, and leather padding for 100-150pp and buy a Baton of Faith.

The BT staff is not what it was a year ago (procmod of 315 got rightfully nerfed).

If you're just doing this for fun, the above suggestions work in addition to the Shining Star of Light and Koadavie Falchion.

Deepwater Harpoon (psssst, it's a halberd, don't tell the geniuses at verant tho) was great pre-Kunark, made almost as much pp selling those as banded armor back on live.

But, unless you're hell-bent on do-it-yourself gearing, pasi is dead on correct about the Baton of Faith as best budget option. Nothing else compares really (although the DW Harpoon will do almost the same damage until L20.)
