These just dropped a Matterbender Focus Staff: Hits 44 and Con 12 plus Focus - 38lvls of both Matter and Spirit Nice damage, too at 12.2dps. Quite a nice find for a Matter/Spirit Cabbie like me. :c)
I farmed the Snowdon Grims for 2-3 days. It does drop. like the others i got a load of caster armor and a few other little diddies. but, just to confirm the other sightings. it does drop.
Camped Snowdon Grims for 3 days, about 12 hours total, got tons of Netherite and Arcanite cloth armor, Deadly Lochaber Axe, Robe of Deft Movement, and FOUR Twirling Defenders. Not a single Jewel of Dark Beauty, and that was the whole reason I was there. Do they even drop it anymore?
I read Rumors that this Guys dropped the "Whirling Defender" Friar Staff. We killed LOTS of them got a lot of Cloth Armor, 2 +Stealth Items and a Polearm but we didnt find the Staff. Is it for sure that they drop it ?
Yes, the Snowdon Grims drop the Whirling Defender. But, like all their drops, it is very rare. I probably get a rate of one drop per 25 Grims on average, and have had nights where 50 have dropped and given me -nothing- useful.
Other drops: Netherite Cloth (AF 35, +Mage) Arcanite Cloth (AF 35, +Elementalist) Jewel of Dark Beauty (+3 Stealth, +3 Crit) Robe of Deft Movement (AF 74?) Deathly Lochaber Axe (Was told this dropped)
I camped them for about 8-10 hours here several weeks ago. I was able to get a full set of cloth armor, Arcanite and Netherite mixed. I also recieved the Jewel of Dark Beauty and the Deathly Lochabar Axe, although I never saw a whirling defender or the robes of deft movement.
I have a great deal of thanks to give to these Grims =) In two days time, and about 16 some-odd hours of fighting, I was able to acquire a full suit of Glittering Netherite cloth, and a Robe of Deft Movement. Special thanks to Mythic; Each piece needed dropped in order; I didn't have any over-lapped pieces. More just by chance, but hey - worked for me! Drops are about 1piece per two hours or so. This was at the spawn up by the Tegs...
dude that's awesome. i fought with those guys for awhile and didnt get anything. was wondering the frequency of drops. thanks for the confirmation that they do. i will have to keep trying.
Head right from Snowdonia keep. Hit the zone wall past the Araw camp and if you follow it to the lake, you'll find the grims in a valley with some trees at the front. If you follow the road, you can go almost the same way, but I've run into cyhraeths going that route and ended up with a few deaths. There is a second, smaller, location of grims at the back of the zone close to the relic keep. Only 4 grims, but not usually camped. Head out left from the relic keep, keep an eye out in the valley to the left, when you can see spiders, go down to the lake and at the end of the lake farthest from the keep, you'll find the grims. I've run into invaders at the first spot, so I consider the area closer to the relic keep safer unless there is a major raid.
