Drop and salvage research is ongoing, and can be found here.

Farming[edit]

Pockmark Flats[edit]

Farm Stormy Eye.jpg

Start from Serenity Temple. The area all around the Pockmark crystal has several groups of 2-3 Storm Riders, some of them patrol the area counter-clockwise. The boss Larrk Etherburn sometimes spawns south of the crystal. Storm Riders won't use Backfire if you wield a martial weapon, and will also only use Energy Tap to get energy (therefore not use it at all when wielding a martial weapon). Any armor-respecting damage is doubled against Storm Riders since they have 20 armor rating against all damage types. Other foes on the map (mainly Devourer popups and groups of Stone Elementals) deal negligible damage to targets with maximum armor rating. A speed boost is advised. One run is usually enough to get at least 5 Stormy Eyes.


The lower part of the route on the map leads to the location of Nicholas the Traveler when it is the correct week for him to spawn in the area. It is possible to go straight to him by heading south when leaving Serenity Temple : this way you'll also encounter Storm Riders groups in the area with a big crystal. Though a bit less than the aforementionned route around the Pockmark crystal, following this route is usually enough to gather 3 stormy eyes.
