Tower of Sol Ro

Yeah that's cool. I only focused on getting LDON gear on one toon because the farm for it is ridonkulous.

Thanks for the consideration.

I only farm LDON for the spells and the AA to be able to tank Kael / SH once hitting 70, and as you say, the cash, which generally will pay for everyones epics by the time i have those AA. The gear is not a realistic goal for me and the time is better spent in raids so didnt even give it a 2nd thought hehe.

I can understand not wanting to alter the system. However...

When you speak to Weevil about the hard LDONs, he says the armor drops there rarely. I don't see it listed on any loot tables.

I've run enough LDON's now to really not "need" to do any more LDON's. I suppose I'll just finish getting the earring for my paladin, who I was trying to get a full set for, then go to the Tower to do the quest for the ring. Then I'll go through the normal tiers and likely not do LDON's again because the time expenditure simply isn't equal to the reward with so many other options available.

Thank you very much.

If you can do Sol Ro then I imagine you can do normal raid content so ldons absolutely becomes low reward for time invested. As others mentioned, the world bosses are a good way to get points quickly (although if everyone did that then they'd never be up so that's not the answer to your conundrum).

We always do ldons and then Sol Ro but we rarely get more than a single item per character (usually a bracer that we then upgrade in Sol Ro) and that lets us get a decent focus of our choice. If you add an item from Shadow Haven, that lets you get an ancient focus you need. We always get the spells we need too.

After that, there's no real need to get more points unless you're solo/single group and limited as to the raid content you can do.

Sol Ro is an excellent zone for upgrading those items but our main motivation for doing it is the great unique augs (and it's fun). I'm not convinced that making it a primary source for points would be a good idea.

What I would love instead is a third difficulty tier for ldons (normal, hard and then hell?) which gives a much higher points reward, enabling faster acquisition of ldons items.

And maybe (because I know this is controversial) I'd like the time restrictions for ldons either removed entirely or removed/reduced once you've defeated Solusek.

There are a few people out there who have managed to acquire a huge store of LDoN tokens. I'm not one of them, gave mine away. But chances are you could buy some from someone in bazaar or on the market place.
