Hi there.

Went to Spindelhalla to xp my artifacts as lvl 47 savage. For the 1½ hour I had my NPC buffs up, I cycled
between djupt odjurs, deeplurk manslayers, deeplurk feeders, and perhaps one more of those types (cant remember them all).

Point is, I went for all those 2 legged types that looks like ekyps mobs (lvl 50-52).

In those 1½ hour this dropped:

35 Enriched Quicksilver
20 Ancient Pure Mercury
20 Ancient Mirror
20 Ancient Crushed Focus Stone
20 Ancient TROLL blood
0 Ancient Giant Blood .. yes 0 (zero)

According to The Olde Apothecary, the Giant blood should drop from the mobs I chased for 1½ hour.

Deeplurk Feeder
Deeplurk Manslayer
Deeplurk Dissembler

But no such luck I guess.. has anything been changed ?? (Or is Midgard just hell to farm A. Giant Blood).

Im off xping now, but I know Malmo perhaps is better - just didnt want to go there with this char

-Cheers!

Giant blood is better in Malm but it is the SLOWEST dropping of the frequently used alch components. There is no option like Alb where you can go in NF and kill tons of Cyhraeths to get them.

If in Malm you could try Drakulv Protectors and Executioners

Last time i tried to farm them after the patch where they beefed up the alch pots.....giant blood drops were nerfed.


No reason for it other than for mythic to piss off its player base

Actually I tried to farm those for 30min or so, on my hunter once - those near Hurbury.

They should also drop for me as a Mid right? or are the drops unique for albs, even tho we share the same mobs?

Also remember to roam around in Vanern Swamp (Jotuns), Raumarik (windswept wraith) and NF (windswept wraith)... just never seemed to have any luck anywhere - except farming for hours in Malmo in the end.. stupid component

It still drops in spind, just a really low drop rate. I was farming alch drops on my skald last night and only got 5 after an hour of play.
