Mining for black rock

krashnss · 11th April 2008, 06:18 AM

So does anyone know if there is a place thats easier to get it up than any other, some have said ilsh... but ive been mining there for awhile and i get nothing.... also... do you have to be gm to get it... im at 98.1 real skill and would like to work up to 100, but i can put gloves on to get me there if i have to be gm.... thanks for any help

There is no better place. Just keep mining. It sometimes takes a lot of time.

At some point though there were more Blackrock in the Caves, but as far as I know, it isn't the case anymore.

Blackrock is a darn nuisance. I mine the stuff up and I'm too afraid to throw it away, so it now occupies about 25% of my total house storage.

*grumbles* This stuff better be turn-in-able. I haven't seen a Shadowlord on Sonoma in a week, so it's not like I can spam armageddon with my pile.

have you guys over on sonoma have had shadowlords?

maybe you are just behind some, Heck onver on LS, there are shadowlords crawling out of everywhere. I saw/fought about 10 in a 2 hour period yesterday. Maybe you guys just need to hit some magic number of kills on your shard. Wish we could get a better explaination of how the spawn works, instead of guessing.

*stares daggers in the direction of LS in general and Warsong in particular*

I saw several the first weekend, but I've not heard of anyone who has seen more than one or two since then.

I want a darn cloak. Can't get a thread of fate either...

*dodges**raises* shield,

Hey cut that out! Anyway if you read draconis new post about the warriors of destiny. I would imagine that the shadowlords will be ramping up on your shard.

Well back to collecting threads from KR users since they can not see them. Woot!

Over have my threads have been from other peoples kills, just check every dead thing.
