[Drops | Quests | Comments ]Lore:
This corrupted fang appears to hold great power. You are certain you have heard that someone in the Overthere was interested in these... Norx?
I'm thinking these do not drop anymore, I've been here for hours and cleared everything multiple times with no drop :/ Can anyone confirm or deny this claim?
The Ancient Ssraeshzian ornaments are usable by any class in any armor, regardless of the description.
Unfortunately, as of the July 16, 2013 patch, these are no longer attainable by the quest. Only those made before this patch will continue to be usable by all classes:
Quote:
- New Ssraeshzian armor ornaments rewarded by Norx are now properly restricted by armor type. Ornaments previously obtained from Norx have not been changed.
The old ornaments have had "Ancient" added to the beginning of their name. The new ornaments do not have the "Ancient" label. This means you can use the "Ancient" armor ornaments on any class or armor type (there are 4 sets), but the new ornaments are restricted to 2 types (ie. cloth/leather and chain/plate).
The drop rate of the fangs seem to be somewhat zone wide rare, although some named have a higher chance.
Went back for the first time after the patch, killed a set of 9 taskmasters without any drop (used to be around 50% drop rate from those pre-patch). I did however got a drop from High Priest, but none from Rhag`Mozdezh, so at least they are still dropping off raid bosses from there.
My rogue did the taskmasters 3 rounds with no fangs, I would think either they have been reset as zone trash since they aren't on multi-day spawn timers and don't drop items, or that Ssra temple has had them removed entirely. Since I did do test images on my mains using click from bazaar items and don't care for the look, is fine with me. My reason for going there originally was because a friend wanted to get ornaments pre-patch, and he has his now.
They drop in Katta. Took probably ~80 kills to see my first tooth. Dropped from a random Shissar Wraithmaker. Hezmaklith the Deadkeeper has not dropped a fang in 3 kills. Haven't tried Commander Zzarishazum yet.
Seems to be 1/100 trash drop, probably lower than that in reality, I seem to get them more often in Assassin room not sure why. Got mine off a Shissar Spirit Binder
Fangs drop regularly from raid-level targets in Ssra. I entered the zone shortly after servers came up following patch, killed Creator, High Priest, Emperor and the Cursed cycle. Got fangs from all.
Protip: In the basement, the Taskmasters (triggers for Cursed) would require an army to defeat. They drop fangs commonly. Respawn time approx 90 mins. Beats killin a thousand trash mobs.
Seems to be able to drop rarely off any shissar in-game, and more frequently off shissar that qualify as named or raid mobs. "a shissar champion" in Chelsith Reborn dropped it the other day. Also had one drop off "an imperial guard" in Ssraeshza Temple. Only two trash drops I've seen. Named/raid mobs in SSRA and Chelsith seem to drop this 1 out of every 2 or 3 kills though (This includes the "mini-named" gladiator shissar in Chelsith reborn).
I have yet to try Silyssar or Zhisza or the shissar in The Grey or Plane of Time A but I'd assume they can drop there as well. It's gonna be pretty rare off non-named though.
I found 3 from various shissar in Zhisza the day after the patch. Two were found on mobs in the pyramid and one of them turned into a dungeon rot infected. I found none on one go around the next day, so rare indeed.
- Corrupted Shissar Fangs may now be found on many Shissar. Norx Blackheart, who is currently studying in the Overthere, will be able to use these items to create a new set of armor ornamentations for you.
Can drop off named in Chelsith. Got one from A Successful Mistwielder
