Can anyone recommend some good instances where a lvl 80 might solo for drops? Or is there no such thing, and I should have rolled a fury?PS. If you recommend a place, please spell it out since chances are I won't know the abbreviation.

<p>If you are looking for t8 instances then I think you are out of luck. The few t8 instances or dungeons are far from solable aside from the solo mobs at the entrances to Chardok and Seb. If you have FD then you could run around some dungeons and harvest shineys. You are pretty much down to killing solo named mobs in the overland zones for a chance at a legendary drop.</p><p>In t7 there are some instances if you are looking for t7 masters or transmutables. Halls of Fate, I think the last named in Den of the Devourer would con green, a couple of named in Bonemire, Palace of the Awakening should have some mobs that still con, and Vaults in Barren Sky, at least part of CoV (Crypt of V..something) in Loping Plains depending on how good you are, Obelisk in Lesser Faydark, a couple of named werewolves in Loping Plains but I've never had them drop anything but treasured for me.</p>

I usually run OoB every day (it's the new PP) - masters that drop in that zone are exclusively level 70 and thus transmute into t8 raws. That's about it, I can 3 box CoA but it's hardly worth the effort.

Well, I tried OOB, and died 3 times at the room with the named eyeball. What were you getting masters off of Wribbit? That name has 2 ^^^ adds with it. I can barely solo 2 ^^^<img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

Been a while since i played my swashie. For farming PPalace i was stamina-line + strength line. Shield swashies do very well at soloing instances!! (and we are swash*bucklers* after all!! i would imagine the same setup would rock for OOB.

<p>Any of the named mobs in OoB have a chance at dropping a master but usually they drop legendary or wood, the cheap [Removed for Content].</p><p>On the eyeball fight you can mez one of the adds while you kill the other two mobs, the whole fight should take less than 30 seconds. If you are having problems make sure that you are running expert's vitality and grandmaster stupfying poisons. Mez one of the adds, then target the named and use Walk the Plank, sinister strike, cheapshot, kidney stab, and sack should about finish it off then unload on the second add, and kill the remaining mob when mez wears off. Cast all of your short term buffs before pulling the mob so you don't stand there getting hit for a couple of seconds while casting them.</p>

if you're having to mez stuff you probably shouldn't be soloing that zone << All 15:10 - 2466 >> 2466 Rippitt << Axxyk'Tuur 00:18 - 8487 >> 8487 Rippitt <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

PP is hard to get access to. I'm stuck on trying to find those scarabs, which is a quest I think you have to do before being able to enter. Maybe someday though.
