Best way farming skyshards-motes-greens! [REQUIRES EXALTED WITH GOLDEN LOTUS FACTION]

**vv3** · 10-20-2012

I wonder when will they fix it...

2 hours of afking gave me:

0x Skyshards

250g in grey items
250g in green items
2,5k g in two BoE items (ilvl ~443, req lvl 84!)
64x Motes of Harmony (I wish I had some uses for them... But I'm stuck with JC/Ench, not much to spend them on)

Vendor mount is really a must, since there are NO NPCs in the city (portals work though).

Another great thing - Alani flies in this phase-shift

So you can kill him after you got your shards without worrying that someone will ninja it. I've also scouted for the rest of the rare spawns, didn't find any, I wonder if they can spawn in this phasing...?

Yes vv3 i killed alani that way
. i was tottally alone when i used sky crystal !
(im also first on server to get exalted with golden lotus so none to worry about coming and stealing it )
As for the skyshards u are just unlucky. RNG sucks some times..
At first shared it with my mates and 1 of em still cant get his last skyshard.. whilst others got like 3-4 in a couple of hours.. Just keep killing that cow and eventually they will drop :P

fyi during beta when you used the sky crystal on alani it did damage to him also instantly tagging it for you dunno if its that way on live though

i think that depends on the realm population. last time i saw one sold it went for 750k on my realm

Wow. Just wow...

Can you stack like 40 skyshards?

unfortunately not. it says "Unique(10)"

so all you can do is farm it 1x for yourselve grind the cow again until you have 10. finish the questline and sell the 2nd one.

Or get one Alani for myself, one Sky Crystal & 10 Skyshards on my way out

ah right forgot that you can transform it into a crystal and farm 10 again ^^

BTW If you kill Alani with Master Looter on - you'll be able to trade it for 2h with folks in your party, right?

dont know about that. but as an advice i wouldnt trade it w/o recieving payment upfront with the piling up on bugs the past 2 addons i wouldnt want to risk ending up with no mount and no gold.

/edit

little update on my grind

2160 kills and thats why ive got so far

2x Skyshard (13 more to go so i can sell the mount twice ^^)
2060 Gold from greens and greys
1x random boe blue
188x motes of harmony
7x lockbox

duration so far 3hrs
