Plucked Eye Math (US Region)

[Vermilion Knight]

So just to clarify. I have over 400 eyes already and I'm waiting for the last tier so I can get the skeleton head.
If you guys would like to know official math times for plucked eyes here they are:

3 Eyes per lantern kill.
1 Lantern spawns every 3 mins on the dot.
This means you get roughly 1 eye per minute.
1 Hour of perfect farming is 60 eyes.
You need about 26 hours to get the full "Bones" skeleton set.

Is it do-able? Yeah.
Is it ridiculous... Yeah.

(Ya think you can lighten up on the reward numbers devs? I know you want some rare items but it's kinda ridiculous.)

Anyway hope these numbers help you plan out how you wanna tackle getting tincts and stuff. I've tested this and can 100% confirm the lanterns will spawn at this rate so long as there are players to avenge in the same area. If a patch changes this obviously it's not accurate.

And if you want the set again on another character, another 26 hours (unless you have friends to mule them for you)

Apparently they are account bound so you only have to connect to online on another character and get your items.

Technically yes you could item dupe but you cant trade eyes. lol

Hmm its weird that Aussies like me get 150 eyes per kill, and I can even farm them offline from named npcs after a soulflay red torches that occasionally spawn.
Everyone else seems to be getting the sharp end of the stick.

I have NEVER been able to get lanterns to spawn that consistently. It takes me a minimum of 10 minutes before another will show up in either the Adyr Shrine, Bellroom, or Leprosarium. That would be on NA servers as well. Not sure why, they just don't show up easily.

Its possible that data they collected found that Aussies cant connect well with others online/have available multiplayer connections so they shortened the amount to prevent it taking forever. But the weird part is why so many? Wouldn't like 25 be okay? But 150??? Thats gnarly bro.

Not only do you get the armor on every character you have and make in the future after buying them SO LONG AS you connect that character to the online servers to do so, the Shrine armors CANNOT be dropped, therefore cannot be duplicated.

I found a couple locations where there are so many easy lanterns that I farmed for an hour consistently. My numbers are 100% correct you just need to be in the right area.

Are you sure? That would be amazing news. But since I've seen consumables in the store, I assumed everything needs to be bought again. Except tints, ofc.

Oh seriously? Do you have a source for that or have you tried.

I am not doubting that you are experiencing this. I am telling you I have heard the tips and tricks to getting these times and they do not work on MY end. Something may be happening clientside, maybe serverside, but I can NOT replicate faster spawning vengeance lanterns.

I own 3 pieces of the Bones set, 2 pieces of the Knight of Adyr set, and almost every tinct between the Putrid Mother and Adyr shrines. I've made multiple characters offline and online and the offline characters had none of these items until I logged to main menu, enabled multiplayer, and logged back in. Then these characters had the items in their inventories and I could go back offline.

The Windmill Vestige was where I got 90% of my lanterns. Look for areas at the beginning of the game where new players die. The lantern will often latch to very weak enemies as well, making the eye collecting super easy.
