buying rights... I know people were yelling that free carapaces and runes
in CT and guk when they were killing the stuff. So dont go and spend your
fortunes on every item, remember, if a group is just camping the items for
xp, means they all have the items allready or dont need em, so they couldnt
care less about em since they're all no drop except for the Lambent stones.
I say within a week you'll be able to loot everything for free practically
if the groups camping them is just going for xp
last night i saw 2 runes being givin away in CT but i was too far away in
the temple to make it there
and also a carapace in guk but every run we made there we had to gate out
because of people making trains of greater iced bones. and finally when we
got to the gargs, we killed 2 of em, and got no carapace.
People are leaving the shin leggings and shin gloves on the corpses of the
froggies. These are groups that cant go deep in the dungeon and just hunt
the zone line, where they pull tons of this stuff, thats where i got my shin
pants and my buddy looted some free gloves....
