Solo Aura farming locations

[Alulien]

Wondering if anyone has any feedback on if any particular zone has higher drop %s than the others for farming the tradeskill mats? In ~10 hours in Icewell I've gathered all of the Lillies, Gems, and Bits I need, but I've only collected 4 Folders, 1 Slicer, and 1 Cutter. Surely I'm fighting in the wrong zone or farming the wrong mobs... or am I overly optimistic in thinking that mats for a single aura will take <40 hours of farming?

Folders and slicers are the bottleneck. I always used chardok and icewell, both seemed fairly even. How long it takes depends on how fast youre killing.

Man, clearly I'm killing too slow in Icewell. I think I'm not pulling as effectively as I can since I seem to run out of dorfs and spend some time waiting for respawns. Maybe a trip to Chardok is in order for change of scenery and the possibility of hitting up the Royals.

Yeah the folders/slicers/cutters can be a pain . I don't pay much attention to luck as i'm usually in a zone for multiple reasons anyways lol. Tradeskills/Quests/Exp/Other random loot. Win win win win.
