Pot Generation

[Rusalio]

Ok, so can someone IG or private message me how to create pots. I understand when and how this occurs during game play, however need pots in bulk. There is one player I know that can generate pots(400 of each) within 10-15 minutes. I'd like to do this for my toons and peeps I run with rather than outright buying bulk lots all the time.

Thx

You can only get 25 of each pot at a time. Unless you go stash them. I don't see why you would want to do this because you can buy 1000 of each pot for 15k a pop. 15k takes about ten minutes to get and 1000 pots lasts a hell of a long time.

P.S. Crush the Keeper trash mobs drop them like no other.

Hmmm, I've never even noticed that..
Will have to pay attention to my pot count.

I figured that out when Ao3 Trash mobs became great gold farming. Every time I took a mana pot, it would be refurbished almost instantly.

I thought I was generating pots because my regen did it some how :O Can someone pm me why/how I generate pots?

You loot pots, if the amount of pots you have on you is less then 25, you can't loot them if you gave more then 25.

Oh OK, that's why I've never noticed, I usually have at least 200 pots.

Anyone know how this really works? Totally random mobs? They can drop more than one? Is it like gold that it splits to members of group within range?

I've been trying this method and its weird. In a group, I don't get much. Solo, sometimes I do sometimes I don't. lol

Do you have to technically "kill" the mob?

[jonboy]

Its random, you might get one from a mob, or you might not, I have oftern have them drop from chests more then mobs, back when I paid attention to that sort of thing.

[Rusalio]

Didn't realize the mob dropped, that explains the jump every now and then.....so I take it that no one knows how to do the bulk creation like the other player I know....

[lordme]

It's dropped by mob if you hasn't got more than 25 each in your inventory. I tested if I'm
The host I get drops but not when I join games

Ok.

So far, I walked in towns and found only 100 stacks for 1500.

Where do you get the 1000 stacks o.o

[Rusalio]

Yeah, let me know too. Hahahah, generally from pot farmers and I mean the legal kinds....

You get 100 at a time. It's easy with the store -- just keep tapping -- that would be 10 taps :P

I'm guessing if mobs/chests drop pots if your number is below 25, just partner with someone, have say 1 pot of each or a very low number. Give the rest to your partner. When you get to 25 or close, clean out. Rinse. Repeat. If there's an area that gives you lots of pots, you should know pretty quickly. And if there is such an area, pot farming should be constricted only by time.

If pots are like drops (independent of other players) and not like gold (shared. is this true?), then a group of 5 can farm pots really fast. One holds pots; others keep very low pot holds.

When done, get friend to split pots back :P Yeah, personally, this sounds more like a pain :) Farm, sell and use gold to buy pots. sounds better to me.

Pot gen is good for low levels but time consuming. It well may be worth the time since pots are expensive at low levels. If your a high level doing this, your just wasting time. 100 pots costs 1.5k. Thats 4 farm trips for 1.5k. OR you could do one 1:30 Crush the Keeper run and generate 2.25k gold. So the trips to the bank is really decreasing profit much more.
