Question about 10th anniv. drops and luck and other random stuff.

Hi all.

Just had a few questions:

1. Do the 10th anniversary items drop from ALL monsters in ALL legacy dungeons? Do harder monsters have a higher chance of dropping them?

2. Does luck affect the 10th anniversary drop? What else does luck affect...chance to hit/defend/gold dropped or anything like that?

3. Are there any good places to hunt earth eles except shame level 1? It gets crowded there sometimes and its about the best money my poor paladin can make.

Thanks!

Re: Question about 10th anniv. drops and luck and other random stuff.

1. Yes, they drop in all 'anti virtue' dungeons and from all creatures. Higher famed creatures are supposed to give them more frequently or improve your chances, but this has not been my personal experience.

2. I don't bother with luck for anything anymore.

3. Second level Despise also has earth ele's along with the ettins.

Good places I can advise for Arti drops and gold that aren't crowded are the blood elementals in Shame lvl 5 and the dragon den in Covetous lvl 5. If your equipment isn't half bad, you should have no problems there.

Concur. The best thing I've found is to hunt the Shadow Wyrm in Destard Lvl 2 with your best armor until you've killed 10 or so. Then, switch to high luck armor and EV the Evil Mage/Demons nearby until you get a drop. I generally can pull one every day this way.

I tried Fel, but M0O and COP kept killing me, even on the second or third levels of the dungeon.

If anyone else gets a better drop rate, please post your method(s).

Can insured items be stolen in Fel?

Like can an insured weapon be disarmed -> stolen?

One can do a much better! I mentioned the blood elementals and the dragons, cause EricVT asked for good drop and gold. If you are only after the artis and do not care for gold or loot, the best spot I found is shame lvl 5 in fel, the little tower with the evil mage lords.

They give quite a lot of fame and with a mage slayer talisman and the flesh ripper ML arti those go down on one hit. In felucca I get one drop pretty regular every half an hour.
I stopped using a luck suit, because I couldn't make out much difference with or without one.

[edit]
Forgot to mention, on my shard, the 5th lvl in most dungeons in fel are real empty. Never seen red in shame that deep down. Can't tell for other shards of course.
