So you think every items have about the same chance to drop but rng gonna rng?

Someone on the wiki suggested lower level mobs may not drop shawl but if they do I guess they all have the same loot table. I also read a couple times it took people several thousand kills to get a shawl but if drop chance of any item is like 5% and there's 20-30 items on the drop table then yeah, that checks out for any item. I've also had people tell me they did the shawl and they were swimming in some drops while shawl took them forever. May be just rng.

I'm asking because I kinda want the xialn mask and wondering what I'm getting into. I want it but maybe not 6000 wyverns bad.

Hello there,

4 shawls farmed for me, 2 more for friends of mine. Yes, I’ve spent quite lot of time farming SS… and I don’t think I have ever looted that tunic

In my experience not every item on wiki SS loot table has the same drop rat, far from it.
Weapons are the most common drops (including the various tash/ wiz DD/AoE proc staves), mask and meh secondary caster items will drop and rot a few times as well before you see either the good caster shawl or the PoS melee/ hybrid one which has exactly the same graphic and you might get a couple Oiled Greaves if you’re lucky

Earring is very rare, I only got one after more than 5k wyvern/ wurm kills.
Don’t bother with cubes their loot table is terrible.
Wurms have never dropped anything for me but minor spells and books for a pita quest (Tunare MAG only) but I hear they can also drop the shawl. One is a pure melee the other one is a caster (read ToT/ Wandering Mind to get some mana back)

Charm the super cube if it’s up, or kill the regular cube it to try & get it to spawn, it will shred wyverns and speed up your farming a lot
The first wyverns before the first tp pad and the lower lvl ones at the bottom of the ramp leading to the maze share the same loot table. Kill them all and g’luck

Hmm might dust of my necro and bring him to SS to fear kite some wyverns. Is it worth parking an alt lowbie mage nearby for loot? Or better for maybe a bard alt?

Yeah they drop a nice piece or two for almost everybody so better have alts there that can scoop up instead of letting rot.

But most importantly a lot of the stuff that sells well is lore so you might want to have a bunch of mules in the area if you want to avoid constant trips to EC. Had a friend there that got a ton of skyfury/winter's/oiled greaves so if you want to bother with selling, come prepared.

If I parsed my logs correctly I've killed 2712 Fe'Dhars, named cubes and wurms. This is the bulk of what I've looted, but LORE NO DROP items will only turn up once in my logs even though some of them have dropped several times. The PTSD from seeing the shawl gfx in the loot window but turning out to be the Wurm Scale Cape and not the Shawl is real. Do not recommend.

I was contemplating farming some Skyshrine, but I think it would be quicker to kill Halfling Guards for their swords and shields and to buy a Lady M shoulders

Nobody needs shawls.

I think shawl ptsd may be worse than seeing bloodstone rings for ggr farmers.

I've done GGR and that junk ring isn't that rare so you expect it. WLS seems like a 0,1% deal so it must be a lot more heartbreaking.

Pure casters have very limited good shoulder options and they're all mostly excruciating to get so pick your poison.
