Sorry guys if i don’t answer pms in game but I’m at work right now, I usually do zho qafa at around 5:30pm eastern time, I’ll be on then doing the event chain, I have no problem with the event wether its just me or 10 people just show up and I guarantee we’ll get through it. Fergs crossing is the server, send me a pm here for an inv to guild and we’ll be sure to do the event tonight a couple of times
Heh. I can’t always play at that time, but hopefully your guild has some folks in it that can do it earlier in the day, or later at night (eastern). Send me an invite when you’re able
Yeah I understand, well you know Fergs Crossing is the farming server for this event so if other people are on they would do it but I can’t be sure right now :p, I will do it later today for sure in an hour or so with whoever is on and people on that specific server.
K. We left it stalled at the second abom. I’ll hop on at 5.30 if I can.
My turret is so much better at this game than I am.
I’ve been clearing Zhoqafa all day with my guild (And Shadow Behemoth in the Zhoqafa down times) across Blackgate, Jade Quarry, and Yak’s Bend. For the most part, it’s just been a group of us 5, sometimes just a pair of us, and we can clear the event chain fairly quickly. A big thing I would like to mention, is that a lot of randoms that show up don’t seem to have a clue how to fight the abominations. When they swing their club, you can step behind them and avoid getting hit. When they charge up their jump attack, you will need to evade, same as when they do their rush move. Hopefully that helps anyone out that may be having trouble with the abominations, and I may see if I can record a video of how to 2 man or run the event with a small group as efficiently as possible, as we’ve gotten quite good at this event after farming it for some time. That being said, we’ve all farmed it quite a bit, and none of us have seen Final Rest yet.
In terms of the Demagogue…..I have repeated the quests as they reset, yet the chest does not reset. Anyone know of any time frame/limit that chest abides by?
Ranger pets getting hit by Champ Abom’s attacks also build stacks of frenzy, making kitting much more of a hassle. Also keeping them frozen help A TON.
I make it a point to do this event chain once a day, and find it fun & profitable.
Post in map chat to get everyone to come, more people, more chances to hopefully get the staff. There is a waypoint to the northeast of the catacombs (I dont recall the name) but if you kill the veteren there, the WP will be uncontested & people can instantly come & will help those a general direction of where to go.
Look for Bertha Knocks/Hebee Jeebez on TC sometime there, I’ll be posting in map chat
Where are all these Zho’Qafa farms occurring? Been on three servers today begging in map chat for help on this event. I am currently on the server where a guild claims to be farming it, and we can’t get ANYONE to help. It seems like this hardly ever gets done. So please inform me where these farms are taking place so that I might help.
Sorrow’s Furnace is one… Done it on Fergusson’s and Fort Aspenwood (i think) as well this week…

Well… Since jeffrey said 10 people would use 7 months, you guys should expect to use 14 months… Yes, 1 year and 2 months just farming the event
@homonavn
I guess you missed that part about us clearing it across multiple servers, multiple times a day. Not to mention other people do it as well. We also clear Shadow Behemoth whenever he is up on Jade Quarry, Yak’s Bend, and Blackgate. We’ve got a pretty solid farm group going for these events (and I’m sure other people do too).

I’d like to know what time of day your group is out. I’m on JQ and end up soloing, so I wouldn’t mind joining up for the Eye chain.
@Pennry
A lot of us are about to do daily dungeons etc after reset hits, but I’ll probably be farming it all through the night (I’m CST time zone) starting at around 9 or 10 PM this evening. My in game name is Brazil The Hue if you want to contact me that way.

It’s probably a once a day thing like the JP chests. The one in the Vizier’s Tower seems like this too. The real one not the one that spawns the veteran.
If anyone on Gandara(or any eu server) is interested in going for these events and want to have a group for them, send me a ingame tell and ill see if i cant find the time to run with you for a bit:)

There a consumable that you can purchase for 40c called Frost Gun which can keep it perma-chilled.
When I am soloing it, I sometime let it hit me once so it stun itself after it frenzy wear off. This is a good opportunity to use a hard hitting skill or for dealing extra dmg for those who has traited for it.
For the Champ Ooze, the only tip I got is to stand at a higher elevation than it and for the Eye of Zhaitan, make a habit of killing the adds when they spawn or the boss will absorb them and get a good chunk of it health back when its channeling one of it skill.

This game bring out the roleplayer in me ^-^
I spoke to some guildies of mine, and we will hopefully be recording a speed clear of the Zho’qafa event chain tonight along with a commentary of each of the events to hopefully help people out that are wanting to farm it. When it’s up on Youtube, I’ll post a link here.
I Have found that programmers use there own bot programs to do testing
. . . . . . . On this basis. . .
Destroy the fire elemental created from chaotic energy fusing with the C.L.E.A.N. 5000’s energy core
Trivia
The event was balanced in the 15 November 2012 update. Prior to this, low level players would die instantaneously from boulders falling from the sky or the mass of Embers that spawned. This often resulted in a mass burial grave of players and players employed kamikaze zerg tactics to take the boss down.
The elemental is in a starter zone lvl 1-15 (but low lvl characters were getting one shotted- so it makes me think that the event (allthough in a low zone) is more geared for high lvls) BUT i consider it one of the more challenging meta events- more difficult than the shaman and behomoth (both soloble)
i think emberspire drops from the ogre yet no named from the elemental

Emberspire can be made in the mystic forge by combining rares or exotics, so it’s not unique to a specific mob/chest/event like Final Rest is.
Toons: Foreseer, Geikamir, Rapscallion, Specimen, Scythian, Zeau, Ärtifact, and Replica.
i am surprised no one really focused on the 7 month’s portion, maybe more then just a calculation…it was a clue that the item won’t be put in game for a while to come?
The now famous quote:“Those aren’t the exact odds, but if my math is correct, 10 players running the event every day might expect one staff to drop after about 7 months. (And we haven’t been out that long.)”
Even though most people have just about hopped on the Shadow Behemoth or Catacombs events as the final rests dropping place, something caught my attention while doing the personal story on one of my alts. While doing the temple of Lyssa story mission, the ever so lovable Trahearne says “Before Orr sank, this was the final resting place of Lyssa’s most loyal followers.” (see attached screen shot) This caught my eye rather quickly like anything that remotely can be linked to the final rest does. Has anyone looked into the events around the Cathedral of Eternal Radiance such as the Kill the Corrupted High Priestess? From my server, Malchor’s Leap is generally quite dead so getting enough players to do this event would be quite a task.

Well.. The words final resting place is used TONS of places around the world.. this is nothing special about this place, aswell as the lyssa event has been farmed ever since release on Ring of Fire aswell as it now
My GF is playing right now (& I’m at work :’( ) and has told me that Tarnished Coast (NA) catacombs escort is bugged at the entrance to the tomb. Has anyone else had this problem on their server?

We’ve done this event nightly for the last few months and it’s typically a zerg of 25-50. Chance of it being any of the temples is practically 0.
As for Taidha Covington you don’t have to keep the merch alive, you just have to go res here after the escort/kill champ chain. This is why it says has a chance to spawn, since most people that did it prior didn’t know she had to leave the island also. Every time i’ve done this (4 times now) i went back, res’d the merch and waited about 15 minutes for the next step in the chain. And you’re all right, it’s a pain to do with only a few people, but it’s also an achievement.
I’m still thrown by the large boss/large chest thing and yes Taidha Covington was mentioned briefly earlier, so it’s another possibility to add to the list.
I’ve been farming Zho’QaFa these past 2 nights with well sized parties. I want to try to get as many people again tonight to farm it. So if you’re interested, come/guest to Dragonbrand! The chain is pretty simple and easy to farm
Zho’qafa is almost always on in whiteside ridge because nobody do it. whenever you go there you can see the npc wiped at the feet of the risen abomination.
Looking for a gay friendly guild?

Zho’Qafa is always up because it resets like 30 minutes after it’s completed. But I don’t think Zho’Qafa drops it since at the beginning of the game, I used to be in zergs of 50+ doing that event. Unless it doesn’t drop for level ~73’s, surely every server was like that at the start and someone would have found it by now.
However, it probably only drops if you’re 75+, assuming Final Rest is level 80, meaning all those people who did it a week after launch while leveling didn’t count.
Yeah… the npcs are always wiped out there lol I just feel like you should get something good from defeating The Eye of Zhaitan. It’s filled with risen and coffins. I just don’t know where else to look that makes more sense than this place.
Has anyone tried to farm Steam Ogre boss in Metrica Province for Final rest? Just a thought. Not many people Battle that thing more than ones. It would be perfect chest for Final rest to drop for the rarity of that boss been fought.
personally i think its in ashford, at the nighttime event there.
Has that event been mentioned before? Which event do you mean?
If it hasn’t been mentioned before in this thread, it can’t be it, since it’s been confirmed by a dev that the correct event has been mentioned afew/some/couple times in this thread.
I considered that event as well, but after the other event I ran in Brisban, I don’t think Final Rest is going to drop on a low level map.
Running an event once isn’t indicative of anything though. We already know that level 80 stuff can drop from lower level events(ex: Shadow Behemoth), so that doesn’t rule anything out.

Memory is a bit fuzzy but neither the boss nor the chest was all that large.

We did Zho Qafa last night with our all necro group, about 25-30 of us total and a few people that hopped in to tag along and no sign of the staff. The risen eye at the end hardly seems to be a unique boss imo. After doing this event, considering it kicks off fairly regularly, I am not convinced this is the place where the staff drops.
