Sunshard Ore  

 

I think all anyone wants to know these days ... is where is the best farming .. hence drop rate off mobs is more valuable than what mobs drop em. Like I cleared the plane of Invention more than once and got none :(

If 4% over all drop rate is true for mobs that drop em .. which seams high .. and it take 2,500 - 3,000 combines to max the tinkering trophy stating at a skill of 250 .. it will be a long time before I am done !!

If you have 4 or more drop for a 100 kills I would really like to know where :)

also droped off the kittys in The Steppes --Confermed loot 1

Drops of this item in Veksar (I live in veksar) is as followed..

Highborn Commander
A Highborn Noble
A Insane Highborn
Highborn
Wraith
Revenant
Animated Hand
Grandmaster area / building
All mobs in the theater
All mobs in the tunnles
Undead drog building

All the above are Phase 3 part of the zone mobs..

So more or less all the mobs from the Theater, Highborn, Tunnles, Grandmaster, Hands - Area's.. I like to call phase 3 of veksar based on mob level.. *Phase 1 being the entrance to the water tunnle / Phase 2 being everything from the water tunnle to the theater - drop off platform to the highborns - which leads you to phase 3 of the zone.. I am confirming that they drop from that entire part of the zone.. Good luck all..

In the last few months’ I’ve known people to sell full stacks (100) of these at 1000 - 1500p. Bazaar Prices range from 450p (rarely) to 3000p. (1000 - 2000 average) The bazaar very occasionally has run out, which may indicate that people have sold them very rarely at prices set higher than average. I haven’t seen this in the last month though so those days may be over. They can often be sold at the bazaar to players (/barter) from 100-650p. Prices still seem to be on an upward trend, but may be stabilizing soon. More venders are carrying full or near full stacks so it would seem that sales are bound to slow now and prices will either hold or begin to drop.

From what I have seen, this seems to be most common from LB mobs, but I have seen it from green mobs on occasion (color of mob with reference to level 75). I have had it drop for me in Black Feather Roost, Sanctus Seru, SSRA Temple, and elsewhere. Regarding Sanctus Seru: I have hunted the top floors of the guild buildings for quest items, research components, and small brick of yttrium ore. Sunshard Ore drops at about one Sunshard Ore for every three or four small brick of ytrrium ore. If you are working on tradeskills, the Sunshard Ore can get you to 300 in multiple tradeskills, including research and tinkering (as I am working on), and the small brick of ytrrium ore can get you to 300 in smithing and tinkering. I have had Sunshard Ore and small brick of yttrium ore also drop in Sanctus Seru from LB mobs just about anywhere I have found them in SS. A word of warning about SS: there are bunches of Guild Masters in SS in the guild buildings (which are the four buildings which surround Seru's hideout). These guildmasters are high DPS/ High AC and a major pain if you get two at once, and a bunch of adds as is common in getting to the top floor. The GM's all see invis, so good luck.

The comments regarding usefulness of drops apply to players of the appropriate races and classes.
