The best monsters to kill for each charm color

Featured Replies

Yes it seems that Blues are by far the most rare. Its probably due to the fact that on the exp. tables in the Knowledge Base, all spells using Blue Charms give major amounts of experience. At least all Minotaur ones do.

I Mahatma I - Thanks Misterxman for the great sig

I decided I'd log what I got off rock crabs to see if they really were a viable option for gold charms. I was low on death runes so I managed to only get 10 kills in, but here's what I got:

 

 

 

[hide]1. 10 Gold Charms

 

2. Nothing

 

3. Nothing

 

4. Nothing

 

5. 10 Gold Charms

 

6. Nothing

 

7. Nothing

 

8. Nothing

 

9. Nothing

 

10. 10 Gold Charms[/hide]

 

 

 

I got other drops, too, of couse; I ommited these from the list though as they weren't relevant.

 

 

 

From my little (and it certainly was little) experiment it looks as if you get an average of 3 gold charms per crab. Of course if I wanted a more accurate average I'd have to kill a lot more, probably a few hundred.

 

 

 

Bearing in mind the time it takes to kill them and the runes it uses I wouldn't deem crabs a viable option, unless you're after mage XP.

 

 

 

Mind you, perhaps I was just unlucky, who knows, but for now I'm going to look for a better dropper :P.

To hell with humanity;

The more I see, the less I believe.

I'd definitely like to know what drops blue, as those give the most experience by far.

 

Ah I see... they are more rare.

 

Hmm... very slow skill, at least so far.

When I'm ungrounded; it's straight to the rock crabs with my foul chickeny thing. I'm low on charms. Very low. Only three left.

Giant rock crabs drop 10 gold charms in one kill. I have had crimson,green blue and gold at hellhounds,but mostly gold there. Dust devils drop mostly crimson and about the same amounts of gold and green(as far as I know).

Also a trip of 2 hours and 20 mins at Steel/Iron dragons left me with 78 Green Charms, 77 Crimsons, 26 Golds and 3 Blues (The 3 blues came on the last kill :-s)

Is there a list of monsters that drop charms? Or does everything drop?

It seems me one thing is true for all monsters which drop charms...

 

 

 

If a monster drops a charm, it all drop all colours of charm.

 

 

 

Am I correct in making that assertion? In which case, I can start compiling a list for our Bestiary now. :)

 

 

 

I would say that statement is correct, they drop one they drop all.

Is there a list of monsters that drop charms? Or does everything drop?
