Never hurts to ask I need archanites for reaper axe, and crafted helm. I am alchemy/herb and have no way of gathering crystals. MB is helping me but if anyone else can collect crystals and send to me I would be gratefull. Many of you may have figured it out but Alchemy is not exactly a money maker, I tried selling about every potion and the only items that sell are health and mana (and not always) potions. I would be glad to trade potions that you need for crystals.

Lol, Haven't been helping much lately because I haven't been farming much lately.

I think this would be a decent alternative to that reaper axe tho

Don't know which mob in DM it drops off of, but if it did you'd have a good shot at winning it in a 5 man group.

BTW, anyone happen to snag a hunter book in DM yet?

I'd like to help you Hall,

but your anti-hunter stance makes it difficult

That blade drops off the last boss (or only depending how you do the instance) on the North Side.

Hall,

Is that Invuln Mail worth it? Seems ok armor wise and I guess that 5% chance to deflect would be ok, but no stats. That seems to hurt.

WTF stop hijacking my "need crystals post"

MB the Doomsaw is better than that blade imo. The axe is what I ultimately want, its slower than the blade, better range, etc.

P.S. I dont like Sword spec either

Well Winke, I can't get you arcane crystals but I can help make Arcanite Bars. So if you need help (2 alchemists can make it twice as fast), let me know and I'll do what I can.

You need to see thru my viel of hate.

Yes. procs every fight turns you into a paladin.

Invul + Libram= +228 armor and +100 hp

I can compensate for paladin mode since im always getting hit.

You don't need a Libram for +100hp on chest.

Everyone needs arcanite crystals for epic recipes/armors. Hell I need them to make a helm (8 crystals), robe (10 crystals) and a belt (10 crystals). It's gonna take a lot more than 1-2 people to farm crystals. It would require 7-8 people w/275+ mining farming 7-8 hours a day to get maybe 10-12 crystals. So Winke...maybe change your profession to mining?

Just curious, have other miners noticed this "slight" increase in high lvl gems dropping from rich thorium?

I think that last patch had alot of bullshit to it.

Still as rare as ever to pull a crystal out of those things for me. Although I did pull a ruby yesterday.

Soooo weak

I've mined for about an hour since the patch and found 3 Arcane Crystals and two Azerothian Diamonds. Now, the Crystals aren't really that much of an improvement, I would say that was just lucky as hell, but before the patch I had only found one Azerothian Diamond (that's 1 Diamond for 20 Arcane Crystals) so going by the amount of mining I have done I would say the Diamonds are dropping more. Of course, it could just be a fluke, I've found 3 Arcane Crystals in 15 minutes of time, and then no more for two days so....
