Macrocosmic Orb SKC20 Campaign Findings/Discussion

The -1 hexed pieces drop in the same fights as the matching abjurations. I got Hexed domaru NQ (Supernal) from anticans fight chamber of oracles. Hexed Bonnet -1 and Hexed Kecks -1 (Transitory) from orcs fight.

Well then looks like time to find the boney craft ones :0

Hexed Haubert -1 from D Brothers D'Aurphe.

:Kills you:


Jk congrats

Also noticed random gear that is used to spawn Escha NMs drops. Couldn't figure out the randomness of the items.

Rng is rng unless there is some solid decent sample sized statistics I don't see a reason to not spend the extra minute on vd. Hell right now half the time doing these is travel and dealing with invent before or during lol

True I think I'm just lazy.

I just have obtained Hexed Coronet -1 and Hexed Coronet on same run @ Brothers D'Aurphe II (Difficult).

Hexed Hose -1 from Brothers, might be specific sets from certain battlefields?

It's been discussed. It was quoted two posts above yours. Cursed gear and matching abj come from same BC.

Here:

Divine Punishers II: Lenitive; Hexed Bliaut,Boots,Cuffs,Mitra,Tights

Dismemberment Brigade II : transitory; Hexed Jacket,Gamashes,Wrist,Bonnet,Kecks

Grimshell Shocktroopers II : foreboding; Hexed Doublet,Nails,Gages,Coif,Slops

Legion XI Comitatensis II: Supernal; Hexed Domaru,Sune,Kote,Somen,Hakama

Brothers D'Aurphe II : Corvine; Hexed Haubert,Gambieras,Gaunt.,Coronet,Hose

It is specific sets. The Abjurations they drop, is the set they drop.

Yeah well maybe if I knew how to read I would have figured that out for myself. Lol thanks.

It's nice that they did this instead of randomized. What you would expect is usually not the approach SE takes.

Might just be me but Kindred Spirits on VD seems very generous with its drops.

Across x7 runs I have gotten.
x4 Linen Coin Purse
x2 Plovid Flesh
x1 Defiant Sweat
x2 Heavy Metal Pouch

Yeah, Kindred Spirits is the best for Gil, unless you are hoping for a -1 Hexed

Do you guys have any trouble sleeping mobs on VD as blu? I have a pretty good macc set and set tenebral for the job trait but at least on the orcs they resist really often (I use soporific)

I use dream flower, and the only one that will ever resist vs me is a PLD.

Did a bunch of Demolition Squad II. Mostly the same as others except had sacks of non alluvion skirmishes stones+1 and some +2 stones, non alluvion skirmish wings, balyd boxes, and delve megaboss synth items. So basically soa stuff that the others didn't drop.

The megaboss item always appeared in the extra slot similarly to how hexed pieces were when I did the yags. Th did seem to increase the odds of their being an extra slot... but not sure it helped since those were also the only times I got a non special zone item in those slots.

Judging by this and previous posters it looks like each zone might have some specific kinds of loot some of which only appears in the extra non guaranteed slot. So far it looks like we have the 5 zones with their hexed and associated abjurations this one having some skirmish and delve stuff and spirits having vagary mats

edit: on demo squad when the 6th slot wasn't one of the delve boss drops used in reforging relic it was one of the job ingredients for af reforge

Hello boys


I have a question

Difficult increases drop rate for good stuff or drop rate is equal for all levels?

13 Kindred Spirits on D:
Duke Amduscias:

Slot 5: Rem5 x5, Snoworb+2 x3, Snowdim+2, One Byne, Duskorb+2, Snowslit+2, Duskslit+2
Slot 6: Etched x2

Grand Marquis:

Slot 3: Rem3 x10, Griffon Hide x2, Alex

Slot 5: Rem5 x9, Tukuku, Abundance+1, Ordelle, Snowtip+2
Slot 6: Etched x2,Tartarian Soul

Duke Dantal:

Slot 2: Rem2 x11, Plate
Slot 3: Rem3 x7, Dst Sheet, Wootz Ingot x2, Beetle Blood, Dama Cloth, Imp.Silk Cloth

Slot 5: Rem5 x4, Leaftip+2, One Byne, Duskdim+2, Abundance+1, Fecundity, Duskdim+2, Beauty, Leaforb+2, Duskorb+2
Slot 6: Etched, Macuil Horn


Things to note:
Slots 1-5 are 100%, Slot 6 is around 20%. Slots 1-5 will drop the Rem Ch. of that number (if nothing else loads?), the 6th slot will only drop Etched Memories.
Slot 1 contained stuff to augment equipment (from both Skirmish and Reisenjima)
Slot 2 contained HM Pouches and plates, low sample size to compare with. edit: Got one MNK card from this slot on Marquis Chomiel.
Slot 3 contained various 109 armor upgrade items. edit: alexandrite/linen dropped in this slot, also an Azdaja Horn and Sobek Skin.
Slot 4 contained Geas Fete items (Dst Ingot, Flame Blade, Etherael Incense, Boulder/Beitetsu for Zitah T3, pouch/case can drop as well)
Slot 5 had Relic Currency, Skirmish stones, Reisenjima stones, nothing really specific it seems.
Slot 6 seems to be Vagary stuff, not sure if Codexes can drop.

So Jungle Boogymen II's extra slot seems to be 119 relic job ingredient (I say seems because in 10 runs only got 1 item not seen elsewhere being pils tuille) and if not it's the af job ingredient.

Also got a few Ulhuadshi's fangs

Do you have an example of your set? I gave up trying to land sleep on VT a long time ago and my blu generally doesn't get omen cards so my Maac is quite a bit lower than the maximum a blu can achieve. I'm mostly curious as to if I'd be able to pull it off if i can manage a reasonablty close set instead of T which was my old cutoff pooint for safety.

ItemSet 351276

Forget sleep dude, abuse trust firaga4 and go berzerk.

AATT can reliably land Sleepga2 on VD Kindred spirits II

Seriously lol?

Yeah. It opens with ES then Sleepga2s. Not tried on anything else yet

How do you go about dealing dealing with Astral Flow? I barely survive it on Difficult.

When I do it im on PLD so rampart and aegis usually deal with that but the trusts... they dont usually do very well at all....

Barrier tusk with a DT set, most of the trusts will die though so you have to kill fast because there won't be a 2nd sleep
