Guild Wars 2

Most of the time karka only drop crab meat. And yet thats mainly what you see on the island. I don’t even go to the island anymore as there is no reward for doing so.

Can you please revise/fix the loot tables associated with the NPCs on the island so that it is a viable level 80 zone? Given DR we have only 2 viable locations to farm as it is (Frost and Cursed) and that tends to get boring.

I actually find this a viable farming zone for level 80’s. With current powerful blood and karka shell prices (26s and 7s50c respectively) I can make about 1g 38s every 30min. I average about 3 powerful blood and 8 karka shells in that time frame. Everything else you get is profit and it costs nothing to get to the island (less expenses). I leave after 30min due to the DR, but I have stayed for over an hour before and gotten 8 blood and ~30 karka shells. The DR kicked in very hard and I was basically forced to leave after finding only the occasional trophy after about 30 kills.

I’d say you can make 2g an hour pretty easily fighting young karka, so I’d call this a viable farming location.

are you using high MF? I have gotten a total of 8 karka shells in all the time I have spent in that zone

He said he’s farming there, so it would be a reasonable assumption.
