Bauble farm solution - 21 chests per 2 runs

[Tyraelus]

Hey,

I'm quite sure I'm not the first to figgure this out but here's what I'm plnning to do.
I need 5 other people who can solo elite Weapon Shipment and want bauble or other stuff from there.
This method grants 21 chests for each player over 2 runs:

6 Players solo different instances of WS.
Player1 (P1) loots his chests, finishes out, joins P2, they loot.
P1+P2 join P3, loot
and so on...till they all get to P6 instance.

Player1 gets 6x2=18 chests, Player6 gets 3.
In the second run we reverse the order so that everybody gets 21 chests total.

If you're interested, are willing to follow the instructions and CAN SOLO ELITE or at least hard, use
/joinchannel bauble farm.

If you can't spare a channel send a list of your toons to Tyraelus thru khyber mail.

How to solo WS:
Any caster can do it. You need either a Torc OR 3k SP+High DCs .
If ur using a Torc, take a few moments to regen SP. Archers and Orthons work best.
Its much easier to solo then do in a group. If you never soloed it, give it a shot.

I need 2 baubles and I'm gonna be doing this till I get them or expansion comes.
See ya in Amarath.

tl;dr

This sounds like a pyramid scheme, I'm onto you. Goodluck.

Do you not get hit rather hard by the ransack demon?

Or do named items not get affected?

Any time I've been farming for the bauble, I solo the elite WS then invite guildies/friends/random pugs with an LFM requesting help pulling the bauble. If you try that you'll find you get a lot of nice people to help you out and by your calculations 3 x 6 = 18 chest chances for the bauble each run. So in 2 runs you'd have 36 chances at bauble rather than 21. But that is just my 2 cents.

-It's not a pyramid as long as everybody can do 2 runs, which I'll make sure of.

-You can loot 8 times per 7 days without ransack. This is just a way how to ransack it faster.

-Yes, you can get friends to pull it for you. However, I've been farming this for some months now and don't wanna bother the same people over and over. Pugs often can't even find the quest and/or take forever to get there. So why not team up with people who actually need it and help each other?

Someone is still bound to let her die in the first part at least 3 or 4 times though.

These reqs are a little over the top. Without any of the 2 above I've done it quite often :P

DR is the main concern. You can live of Conc-Opp for SP regening if you want, just make sure you have greater spearblock for the archers and some other stuff (if you're a PM, lich form + concopp + aura are plenty for example).

It is actually doable without even having to wait for SP regen even with just concopp as long as you conserve the SP (use AOES, etc).

Slower, but surely doable

Just to be contrary, I solo'd this elite on my monk yesterday.

Sorry if that wasn't helpful.

A Cleric/FvS hireling that you kick at the shrine helps with this.
