	Just curious, what's the minimum amount of effort it would take to create a toon to soul gem farm (wiz or sorc, not warlock - unless they put it on sale sometime soon)? I'm tired of waiting for soul gems to show up in the auction house and paying the outrageous prices people charge for them. But I do have at least a passing interest in becoming one of the people charging outrageous prices I have a decent level 7 favored soul I can LR (that I'd been feeding tomes to as I found them to make him into my alt, then completely forgot about all the effort I'd put in 3 years ago and used tomeless ranger instead ><). What level would I have to hit with him and how hard would the actual farming be?

	I made a morning lord 1 cl 14 wiz. Leached xp to get 15 wiz and use rhat toon to trap souls. Have to be lvl 15 to cast as wiz.

	If you can roll it you can smoke it.� If you can carve it you can smoke with it.

Yeah...I don't really have friends in game any more after a 2 and a half year break. My old guild really wasn't a guild, just a bunch of solo players working together to put together a kick-ass ship. After contributing millions and millions of points of favor, the bastards kicked me out Pretty happy with my new guild...for what they are. It's probably the largest on my server, but it's a hardcore newb guild. They're active and some returning vets like me, but not a lot of superstars are hardcore players. I'm on Cannith, but seriously appreciate the offer of passing me some gems. Toke wrote on Jul 23^rd, 2017 at 9:36am: I made a morning lord 1 cl 14 wiz.

Been kind of on the fence about picking up the sun elfs, but as cheap as they are right now, I'll do it if I can find an actual use for them. Have a purple dragon knight I'd love to delete. Rolled him and never played him. They're just so...stupid looking ><

	It's kind of tedious farming even if you already have the caster. Did anyone ever make a guide of where to find the mobs that drop relevant gems?

I never bothered picking up any of the iconics (outside of the purple knights I got with the pack) cause I didn't really "get" the point of iconics. Yeah, it's cool starting out in the end game, but with a bunch of crap gear, not so much. I'd rather take a heroic toon with a few past lives into epic than slug through the last few levels with a poorly equipped toon. Could just be me, I don't "get" minecraft either 5 Foot Step wrote on Jul 23^rd, 2017 at 10:42am: Did anyone ever make a guide of where to find the mobs that drop relevant gems? No idea, but if someone cool wanted to put that guide together, I'd be very interested in seeing it

	There is a much easier way to farm soul gems than anything listed here so far. If you're on Gland, let me know and I can probably hook you up assuming you're looking for a reasonable amount and not something stupid like 200 gems. 5 Foot Step wrote on Jul 23^rd, 2017 at 10:42am: Did anyone ever make a guide of where to find the mobs that drop relevant gems? http://ddowiki.com/page/Category:Soul_Gems lists the places to farm various levels and types of soul gems.

	Warlock is the best way to farm them if you can get a reasonable DC, because reasons. You could also use a GS item and just grab the occasional stone as you play.

	If you are in one of the biggest guilds on Cannith, I have to imagine that someone there is hoarding gems. Just ask around and see if someone has some to trade.

The only link in this thread is to a page that lists what zone and mobs to kill for the different types of soul gems.� The linked page says nothing about how to farm them unless someone else had posted a different link and then edited it out. I see you finally at least partially edited the gayness out of your original post in this thread but, unsuprisingly, you didn't remove enough.� It's still mostly gay and retarded.� Try again. While the devs may be rockstarz, even they can occasionally put 1+1 together and get 2.

Pretty sure someone on Cannith still has a working dupe method. I allow that they might just have had bags of duped ings/collectables left over like I did, but judging from some of the newer ings and augments, pretty sure they're still actively duping. Orien on the other hand looks to be dupe free judging from the scarcity of common items on Cannith and the high AH/SE prices. But fuck Orien. Orien sucks. Plus, I didn't dupe anything there
