It gives twice as many tokens. I've never timed it, but even if you can run 2 LoDs in less time, it's still more work...you know, compared to farming DA while watching Netflix on your 2nd monitor.


Ahhhhhh. "Less work" is definitely what I'm after. Will give that a shot.

Token farming: spend some time in epics.  You'll end up with more tokes than you'll ever use.


See, I tried that, and that's exactly what I thought... until I did 23 TRs in the span of about 72 hours(not all on the same character, really got some mileage out of that bonus weekend).

5 Foot Step wrote on Jul 14th, 2020 at 3:41am:
Outside of that - no idea.  I did the DA thing for at least six straight months and played almost nothing but epics for a year - I've got enough tokens on my toons to TR about 100 times.


Will have to try this definitely. I had forgot about chest ransack /sigh. But yeah, gonna have to park my main for a while. So close, just needed 15 more RTRs... 300 more tokens /cry

I know it is hard to wrap your tiny little brain around it without combusting but there are people out here that don't dupe or don't dupe everyhing that is not bolted down.

I was thinking Don't Drink the Water was the fastest epic chest but it doesn't drop tokens. At least I've never seen any.

I did dupe(and HOW), but focused on other things. I made sure I had as many cannith challenge matts as I could hold because FUCK those challenges, same with TF matts. But didn't go heavy into other things because I actually enjoyed farming for them.

That was why I didn't bother with tokens. There was no value to making thousands of them, and back when I was only TRing once every 3 months, there was never a time where I thought I'd suddenly need thousands of tokens. Really, who would have seen this coming?

Yes, it was real, and it was beautiful. The removal of /death may explain why no one commented on the chat screenshots I posted a few days back:







tl;dr: I'd post a comment about using "/death count" to see how many times my character had died, then one or more members of my party would try it, only to realize they had just killed themselves ("/death count" was not a command, but "/death" was!). I typically did this in inconvenient places like the end of Shroud part 4.

/death still works. It's how I get back from shitty places to my guild ship before getting teleport scrolls.

So this is interesting. I just logged in and tested it. I know it must have been removed at some point(a few years ago when i first experimented with dual-boxing I tried it and got "invalid command"). But it also doesn't work to just kill you anymore; now it teleports you to your spirit binding place and leaves you with 1 HP and 1 MP( death + release).

Not useful for killing alts, but still handy for griefing purposes. Well, not quite, it does have a loading bar so you get a couple seconds to realize the error of your ways.

That's always been the case. The best is that people STILL fall for it..

if your toon falls into unconscious range then /death will actually kill your toon w/o releasing from quest.

Do you know some trick to killing alts that you'd like to share? Uncleansed heroic greensteels take a couple minutes on a lvl 30 character even while naked. 


Theres a bind spot right next to the quest. /death enter quest remove con item = instant death

Also not sure if it still works but there used to be a way for your alts to port to chains of flame.

If you have a few people who like the Cannith challenges 300 ingredients of any type equals a token. Do a few of the Dragon Hoard ones with decent maps and you can farm out the 20 tokens in under 2 hours usually. First 6 star run is worth a bunch of xp too if someone isn't quite to cap as well.

I know for variety back in the day I did these rather than the usual epic quests since they were far less annoying on weaker alts.

DA tends to bore the snot out of me so the challenges can be a decent change if you enjoy that sort of thing.
