I wish they dropped one out of five. You must have been extremely lucky since we averaged about one every hour to ninty minutes on several different camps. They can drop off the SK and the necro btw. Anyway this ring rocks. Much better than an AC6 +65 HP ring for a lvl 60 warrior.
killed both cultists last night , they conned even to me at 60. necro guy drops Staff of teh Arsien Cultist. 20 35 5str 5int 5cha 2hb (SHD WAR ENC WIZ MAG / GNM ERU HUM ORG TRL DE), and a no drop insginia. His SK friend drops Blade of the Arsien Cultist 11 23 5str 5sta and Shield of the Arsien Cultist 15ac 5str 5svf 5svm (tall races)
Our group dropped this guy last night and his buddy that carries the shield and the blade. He conned red to our level 60 Ranger that was pulling, so his level may vary. As the only person in the group that could actually equip the staff, I won it by default. It did equip and did look cool, but I hate that there is a -10 INT exchange between what I was already carrying and the staff. Staff would be much nicer if it was 1 hand, but it is still very cool.
Any idea what this thing would fetch in Freeport at the market?
That staff is terrible for risk/reward... gotta be worth less than Chetari Wardstaff in Fay-Mart or EC... I'd hold onto the stafffor a few weeks and see if VI cleans up this TT risk/reward mess.

Stats are 20/35 Dex+10 Cha+5 Int+5 2HB and it has Secondary on it...Petitioned a GM and said should be fixed next patch on FR...Nice for my ench...
Also a AC 6 Stam+10 Wis+10 Int+10 Mana+25 HP+25 Pois+15 Dis+25 ring drops too.....lucky I got one...went back and these mobs are not up anymore....ring is all/all....guess GM nerfed it already....shrug....and it also is hard to pull...harmony is almost a must...these thing has a huge argo range....for a 60 mob they don't hit too hard though..mid 200's
Took her down last night and she dropped this Staff of the Arisen Cultist. War + Caster classes on it but completely unequipable. Stats are something like 2hb SECONDARY 10/26(not sure on dmg/dly) 10dex 5wis 5int. Like i said, when our warrior tried to equip it to see what it looked like he was unable, so was I(wizard). Even had our monk try it just for the heck of it. Guessing its for some quest, anyone have a clue? Was hoping for that cool looking robe =P
