Hey guys, I would really like to get a colossal scimitar by farming it myself. I tried moddok crevice for several days and easily about 80 runs without any luck. I switched to farming the corsairs in Zehlon Reach but nothing so far. How goddamn rare is this thing? Idc about req or anything, just max dmg with insc slot would be fine. Can anyone suggest other strats if I want to get it myself? Or is it that rare and I should expect farming for weeks?
I have got the feeling that Zehlon Reach might be better than Moddok Crevice because I get somewhat regular weapon drops from the warriors there while in Moddok crevice they hardly drop anything beside armor pieces.
Any advice would be appreciated:-)
Colossal Scimitar - where to farm and drop rate
-
I got a few farming HM Corsairs in Plains of Jarin Fissure.
Maybe give that a shot.

I love that spot in nm too because of eotn skin no reqs...
Also, seeing lvl 7 to 10 drop lockpicks is hilarious.

Thank you Mordana I will give that a try!

Looney he said hm

Yep, no problem.
I would've replied earlier, but it's been a while - didn't recall that place right away.
Also, it probably goes without saying to do while favor is up for the increased gold item drop chance.
Anyway, good luck.

Yes, i know... and i also like that same spot in nm, not just hm, for the reasons i stated.
Or is somehow a no req max insc oaken aegis, draconic spear, forked spear, serrated spear, etc not something worth farming for...

Looney depends. Sometimes you can got those for a few ectos in kama

Not in eotn skins for cheap.
Colossal Scim q9 can usually be found for a few ectos in kamadan too, so your point?
-
I found plenty of cheap eotn q0 skins in kama (Serrated, Clouded, Broadhead...)
So kama might be better than farming

And you can find q9 insc colossal scim for 5-10e within a few minutes of kama time too (even easier/more common) than eotn skin no reqs, so again, your point?

Looney why so toxic?

I am just replying in kind, you seemed to not understand the point that every drop discussed in the thread is of similar value.
I'm sorry you found me trying in numerous ways to get that fact across toxic.
I merely tried saying a farming spot was also fun in nm, not just hard mode and say what drops there.
You kept going on about the values.
Everything discussed is of similar value.
You were half the toxicity.
(Also, i don't think you realize how many of the eotn skins you "found cheap" were me on alts saying "name your price idc" because idc about my doubles.)

Guys, thanks again for all the advice. I came back to tell you I achieved greatness. Days turned to weeks while slaying every corsair in Zehlon reach and moddok crevice again and again and again. I am almost sure they hate me more than anything over there. Due to the Bonus week before, the current event and an urgent case of low lucky points I figured that barbarous shore in NM will surely get me this cursed blade eventually.
After opening about 1000 chests and my patience coming to an end I could not believe what happened after opening a chest in the Corsair infested Harbor: Req 9 Colossal Scimitar! After picking it up faster than anything before and travelling back to the Guild hall I realized something terrible: 14-20 dmg. I was about to quit, stop my efforts and just accept it is not meant to be.24 Hours passed and I barely recovered from this shock and then I remembered the advice of good old Mordana I entered the caves below Kamadan while favor was active. For two times, just to be able to say that I have tried everything before shamefully using the one I bought for 10e in kamadan. But then it just happened. Countless hours of farming, chest running and being mad finally resulted in the perfect, max dmg Q9 Colossal Scimitar. I can finally rest now.
Maybe it does not make sense for most people to spend so much time on a weapon that lost all it’s value and exclusiveness in 2007 or even earlier, but idk why, I was most hooked to the game when this weapon was like the most desirable for everyone and I was Never Lucky enough to own one. And I really prefer anything that dropped just for me instead of buying a random thing.
Thanks for all the advice, I am happy now
