WTB/WTT Soul Gem: Essence Of Earth

[xveganrox]

I really dread farming these, but I'm sure someone else already has plenty. I can offer Plat, Ocean's Wind gems, or whatever. I need 60 for now but might need more in the future. Who wants to hook me up? :)

I really dread farming these,
Out of curiousity, do you farm sould gems with Vacuum II greensteel? In that case, I can understand your sentiment -- earth elementals hardly ever actually hit you; you can sit in one of "Depths" dungeons for an hour without moving, and not have a single gem drop.

OTOH, when I need a Soul Gem: Giant for crafting, I go into Forgotten Caverns elite and let trolls whack on me. After about five minutes some troll engems.

I can't, in good conscience, let you buy these if you don't have to.

If you have access to a caster with Trap the Soul, simply go to Taming the Flames in House K (it's the quest where there's fire elementals and lava and burning and pain)

Open the quest on Hard. There are roughly 17-20 Earth Souls in here in a quick, easy run. (note must be hard. The Normal/Casual/Elite don't yield the correct essence)

Use the middle TTS spell (when you click on the spell there are three versions: the high, middle, and low versions)

In case you didn't know, you can buy the tiny Khyber Dragonshards in the portable hole. (100 tiny = 20 small. Smalls are the version you'll need)

At least for me I've needed the smalls actually in my inventory not in my ingredients bag.

You should have more than enough in under 30 minutes.

Hopefully this helps!
