Another perennium weapon question

Post by Thunderwear » Wed Mar 05, 2008 7:36 pm

Does the spirit tech apparatus (STA) get used up in the process (I assume it does)?

I ask this because the only STAs I've found drop from the mortigs in the SW corner of Elysium and those are of QL100+. I don't want to use my only short muzzle STA of QL103 to make a QL50-60 perr beamer if it's gonna be used up in the process.

The only other mortigs of lower level I've seen are in the Elysium dungeons and I've not seen a STA drop yet from them.

Can anyone tell me where lower QL STAs drop, if any?

Mortiigs in NE Ely also drop them. And both camps drop as low as ql 70ish. Never got one of them in dungeons, but Nascence hecklers might also drop them (can't be sure, try to awoid hecklers altogether).

I thought only brink bosses drop the apparatusses. Don't think there are any named hecklers in Nascence.

Well, I've gotten 1 of each type of STA from the morts in SW Ely, each is QL120+.

Guess I'll try that NE area. thanks for the responses.

Well, I ported to Acne and have been running all over the area norht of there and havent seen the morts yet, maybe I'm not far enough north but i'm headed that way.

Could I get a more specific spot the NE mortigs are at?


Thanks

Enel Sanctuary exit is named Eastfang, not sure on Shere's exit. It's north of Exalibur's End and Ripwell.

I did find the mortigs on Eastfang but I guess I was expecting lower level tigs which there are none other than the Looting Mortigs that hang out near the Chief.

My 104 keeper runs with a 107 enf and hunting the tigs at Eastfang is rather risky. I'd rather stay with the SW tigs since they are same level and easier to pull without drawing extra aggro.

I was looking for lower level tigs cause I can't picture the level 100+ tigs dropping QL70 stuff. I might just forget about it since it's a needle in a haystack trying to get not only the right STA type to drop but at the QL needed also.

/sigh
