View Full Version : Hard time finding adepts, just me or less drops?
I started a scout last friday which is now level 17, soon-to-be ranger. I have only one adept skill so far, stalk which I found myself. I have checked the broker/fence alot these last days but I cant find adept skills to buy. I've seen one or two different skills on there but they wanted about 1g50s for what is really low level skills which makes me think that scout/predator drops are quite rare compared to other classes. I also play a mystic currently at level 24 and I have almost all the skills I want upgraded to adept except my last spell cold fire and when I check the broker for adepts I can usually find at least one of any skill I want for him.Have anyone else a hard time finding adepts for scout/predator skills or is it just me? And does it get better with ranger skills?

<DIV>Level 26 Ranger and Adepts are hard to come by.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I have a few that I bought off the broker which I am currently using.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>A Guild Member found one in a loot drop which I'm holding on to till I dind 29 and can use it.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Most of the ones on the Broker are all low level. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>My Husband is a 26 Guardian, and when I watch him looking at the broker, he has like 5-10 pages of spells that he can use. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I'm jealous!:smileywink:</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

I'm a little curious about this as well. I just started a scout also, got him to lvl 15 now, but don't have one adept yet. The only adept so far that I've seen is stalk and I've been checking the brokers several times every day. My fury has every skill as adept. EVERY skill. What's up with the scout adept drops?

It has been stated here before in other threads that Ranger Adept drops seem to happen more often in the Commonlands and surrounding areas. I was a little skeptical of this so I started checking the fence on the Runnyeye server for Ranger Adepts before I logged each night. A couple days later I actually found Shadowblade Adept 1 for sale by someone in Freeport for 15sp, so even with the 40% markup it was still less than 20sp.

<DIV>In Qeynos harbour as you come in from the docks and pass under the 2 arches jump in the waterway there. Swim under the wooden platform you were standing on and you will see a crack in the wall underwater, head through there and up through the well. Your there.. I tracked him myself,, why dont more Rangers do this?</DIV>

<DIV>Im from freeport, its not that ranger stuff drops alot here, its that we have NO rangers. Rangers are a good guy only thing. We have the adepts for cheap because there is no demand for them. Look up a necromancer adept for any of thier pets in FP, it is ludacris how expencive they are. Then look up a Swashbuckler adept, will be cheaper. Granted you may not find a whole lot of them here (since if its not usable in FP alot of people sell it, not many know about the fence it seems), but it will be relativly cheap.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Edit: in my lack of sleep i totally fudged this up... "Im from freeport, its not... etc etc" should say; Im from freeport and CL does not drop many ranger skills, Nek however does. When i wrote not alot are droping here i was thinking about the fact that i just logged an alt outta CL so in my mind here meant CL lol.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Carry on.</DIV><p>Message Edited by EDofEDs on <span class=date_text>12-25-2004</span> <span class=time_text>04:21 AM</span>

I have found all my adepts on the black market broker at very good prices. (My favorite adept at this point is my AdeptI Makeshift arrows - 30 arrows per click) Still have not found Pierce or Impale. Do these exist?

<DIV>Well I have found snipping shot in a couple of places, and couldn't belive that I found a Rip adept last night in Varsoon. They are out there they just seem very rare, but talking to other classes it seems monks and wizards are having a hard time as well finding adepts.</DIV>
I've seen the Pierce and the Impale adept so they are out there. Down side is that the sellers want your first born and your right arm to part with them.Stay safe!
<DIV>Same problem only worse when you hit 30. Then all Adepts magically disappear. I have heard that most drop on Everfrost zone... but I can't confirm. Different servers will have different issues though, since some servers have more high-end characters out there finding them. Poor Everfrost server... not many players above me... and I can't get to Everfrost just yet.</DIV>
