Talk:Ungues of the Oni

Nice stats :) &mdash; Skuld  16:02, 16 June 2006 (CDT)


 * Actually a pretty good sub for those blasted Ceremonial Daggers... Kessel 21:26, 17 June 2006 (CDT)

Woot, i'm pround to have been the one to force my two guildies to go farm the first recorded one of these! :D I'll get a better screen as soon as the anti-farm goes away and I can get another one. (IGN = Scarlet Span, I posted on the Guru forums) --Dragonaxe 17:21, 16 June 2006 (CDT)

So, if I understand, this is a new category of green items dropped by simple Oni mobs (not a Oni Boss)?

 * Dropped by a specific group of non-boss Oni, yes. Drop chance on these seems low. I've solo-farmed that group twice, and while each of the five (I believe it's 5, would have to go back and check again to be sure) drops at least 2 drops, I haven't gotten any of these yet. That would put the chance at below 5%. --Shattered Self 18:44, 13 August 2006 (CDT)
 * OK, took a closer look when I went back yesterday. There are 2 groups of 6 Oni; the first is there when you arrive, the 2nd seems to spawn when a certain number of the original group have died. Each Oni drops only 1 item, contrary to my initial report (my solo technique usually kills both groups very quickly, so at first I didn't realize a second set was spawning); I'm not sure if the first group will drop the Ungues, as I have only gotten them from the 2nd group. If the first group can drop them, then the drop chance is maybe 2.5% (1 in 36). If only the 2nd group can drop them, it's more like 5% (1 in 18). --Shattered Self 09:50, 17 August 2006 (CDT)
 * Never mind, second group spawns when you get most of the way across the bridge (they appear behind you and aggro even if they're outside the radar bubble). First group can drop the Ungues: current drop rate estimate is ~2.75% (2 in 72) chance. --Shattered Self 13:32, 17 August 2006 (CDT)

What is the best way to get to the oni groups solo? Its quite a ways through Gala Hatchery (unless im missing a shortcut) and i havent gotten to the mission outpost.--Coloneh RIP 00:07, 20 November 2006 (CST)

Nerfed?
Hi, Have they added groups to the run to get to the Oni? Right after the Rt boss, there are another 2 groups to run through - even with 16 in Shadow Arts, Dark Escape runs our before you can break aggro. In addition, they have Charge and keep up with you. I've tried crossing the bridge right before the Rt boss and that was better, but still didn't quite break aggro before the Oni. Any ideas? Thx, HH
