Heya! I wrote a guide on the event chain a few months ago and put it up on our guild's website, but of course it lacks the exposure. I don't know where to put it on the wiki though. If anyone can hint to me where to best put it, I'd like to share the guide here.

If anyone wants to do the heavy lifting of editing it for the wiki, feel free to use text and image (I published both under under GFDL-1.3). --maeggle talk 01:00, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

The best place to put walkthrough for events is on the event pages themselves. You would want to split up the guide to be specific for the events in question. This chain looks like it starts with Destroy Orrian coffins with Pact flamethrowers Anzenketh (talk) 01:41, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

I have done this event chain at least 50 times in last 6 months and have always seen delays of 22-25 minutes from the death of the last of (Wraith, Noble, Abomination) to the vulnerability of the AA Gun. Has anyone seen a delay outside this range? Wiki says 15-60 minutes. Separ (talk) 21:05, 25 August 2018 (UTC)

Does anybody know how rare the drop for this is?[edit]

Does anybody know how rare the drop for this is? Daddicus (talk) 06:21, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

I have gotten one in about 60 tries. Looking at its price on the Trading Post (420-500 gold) to get a feel for how it compares to the other items in the Treasure Hunter collection, I would consider it very rare. Zho'qafa Catacombs (event chain) is the walk through for the pendant events. Separ (talk) 21:05, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
Thanks. I was expecting 1 in 100, so that's not too far off. Thanks for the info!
Anybody else remember how long it took them? Daddicus (talk) 00:38, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
I dare say it's rarer than that, but I haven't really tracked my sporadic attempts to get it. Adeira Tasharo (talk) 05:23, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

In the time I've been treasure hunting, roughly a year, I've gotten Pendant of Arah twice now. A friend does the hunts every day and has gotten it 18 times but I'm not sure over how long of a span. Tenacity wins this drop rate game.

I did 140 attempts and received one. Daddicus (talk) 15:33, 15 June 2021 (UTC)

Can anybody point me to instructions for research pages?[edit]

I would like to add a research page for this item (and a few others). But, I don't know how to create one. Can anybody point me to instructions for how to create a research page? Daddicus (talk) 18:48, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

Mostly, it involves creating a page and calling it such. What are you looking to track? (P.S. If I don't respond quickly here, feel free to ping my talk or chime in on Wiki Discord.) Adeira Tasharo (talk) 05:22, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
I want to know the approximate drop rate, but only for the one item. I haven't seen a page like that on the wiki before.
It would be OK if it were a regular drop research page, but the other items are probably inconsequential. People don't do this event chain for the masterwork items they might get. Daddicus (talk) 21:15, 22 February 2020 (UTC)
