ADEE - Boulderbone vs. Oyotomi

VS.

( ADEE = Arlen DawnEyes Experiment ) The majority of you who are reading are probably going, who the heck is Boulderbone? He's a, you could say secret, boss in Mirkholm Keep:

Go left at Osric, then go left again and you'll be with some Canyon Ragers ( life ) and there's a cave with a sigil ( you know, one of those instance area entering-things ). Inside, is Boulderbone. He drops a neat little Weapons Cache too...

Anyways, here's the thing, Boulderbone is a great gold farmer. Why? Here's a reason...

And that's at a lower dye, the Theorem robe can sell for over 2,500 gold :D. There's also a frequent ring dropped for 1,500, and the other drops are only about 500. So, I did a little experiment since Oyotomi is the main mega farmer since the Raven$ were cut down a bit and Oyotomi's stuff skyrocketed in price. Fighting both in exactly 10 minutes, Boulderbone's stuff I got in that period ( fighting w/Mycin for both ) all sold for a combined 6,900, while Oyotomi's combined sold for 3,500. A little disclaimer, I didn't get as many high-price Oyotomi stuff as usual, including some No Auction things ( sell for less ) and hats. Try it out yourself and see what happens, but it looks like Boulderbone is the best boss to gold farm when you have to solo. Here's some recommendations on what schools to fight which when you have no help:

Storm: Fight Boulderbone

Ice: Fight Boulderbone

Fire: Fight Boulderbone
Balance: Fight Boulderbone

Life: Fight Oyotomi

Death: Fight Oyotomi

Myth: Fight Oyotomi

A major setback is if you don't have the spell Feint, it takes longer btw. Except if you're storm, a Stormblade and a Storm Lord kills, 3 rounds. Now, I'd recommend Oyotomi for team, when you're not soloing. Here's one reason: http://my.diaryofawizard.com/profiles/blogs/one-round-mooshu-boss-kill?xg_source=shorten_twitter Read that link by Valdus Soulpyre if ya can ( aka Fallon Shadowblade's husband, lol ). If you can beat Oyotomi as a team in less than 3 rounds you should probably farm him. Here's more recommendations for team ( if everyone is this school )
Storm: Fight Boulderbone

Ice: Fight Oyotomi

Fire: Fight Boulderbone

Balance: Fight Oyotomi

Life: Fight Oyotomi

Death: Fight Oyotomi

Myth: Fight Oyotomi

Work out your own strategies for each boss if you'd like! I'm going to look for a possibly better Grizzleheim boss ( maybe another in Mirkholm ) to gold farm, and I discovered my little Boulderbone strategy while farming for that Weapons Cache ;). Happy Farming!
