Trying to grab a slinger in EN/EH as I grind out spinner for a doublecross anyways, so attempting to figure this one out.
I assume the spawns never end as I fought for over 15 minutes last night until I gave up.
I cant seem to get the first wave cc'd long enough to pull that evidently, extremely heavy lever down.
Only running this for the slinger, so would like to figure it out, even though at this point I may not even use the thing on my xbow rogue, it still annoys me.
Whats the trick? Can it be done on elite without extreme stealth skill?
Does it have a decentish drop rate on epic to where I could not hit ransack and get it?
Fail,
If you're after the base item, just run it on Heroic Elite.
I multi-boxed it a few days ago and got 2 from 3 toons.
I think the drop rates have been increased. Heck of a lot easier on Heroic Elite or Heroic Hard depending on your class/ED.
Seals and Shards are probably best found in the Spinner's end chest.
This item is part of the Epic SSS (Scroll/seal/shard) system.
It is very, very grindy.
It was designed for when toons were capped at 20 and kept people busy for moths trying to get that one missing component.
There are no Epic versions of these items.
There is the base items, and then you need the S/S/S to upgrade it to Epic. The upgrade takes it lvl 20.
Most of these Epic SSS items have been eclipsed and left behind by subsequent loot systems.
The bow and Xbow still hold up ok - especially if you're happy with the base item.
I know players who ground for years to get their completed sliver slinger or bow.
Most don't grind for this Epic SSS gear anymore because you blow through the 20-24 levels so quick and get better gear soon enough.
Hope that helps.
