Diablo 3 Reaper of Souls: CAPTAIN CRIMSON'S Legendary Crafting & Farming Guide

[@mariaminevich8000]

It took me about 2 hours to farm 2 Essence of the Twin Seas. Both drops are from Moontooth Dreadshark (torment 3). During that I had not a single one Razormouth Bounty quest. It is extreeemely rare. Moontooth Dreadshark spawned only 2 times for me and every time when its was Bounty: Kill Belial. Plus got other crafting materials ensteig plates, doctrine and one legendary item dropped. Thank you ZiggyD for such helpfull guide!

[@DennisKent]

Last night I tried this and only found him 6 times in 4 hours with 1 drop. I was about to give up but decided to do a couple runs today for the heck of it and I'm glad I did because he showed up my first 3 runs and dropped the essence twice. So glad I can move on!

[@Necrode2]

Thanks for this. Had trouble farming this set pre-patch, and didn't even know about the second spawn location. Finally got my mats :)

[@Squee_666_9]

Jesus I wish I had realized sooner that I could literally just craft this. Been waiting for a drop to complete the witch doctor spirit barrage build.

[@simonkevnorris]

Thanks for the video. On one T3 run there I got the Iron Wolves Doctrine (for Asheara's Vestments) as well as the Cpt Crimsons materials.

[@RohanSA]

There is apparently a good way to farm uniques that drop this to get the checkpoint just after you meet Magda at the kashim outpost, and just check the 2 spawn locations below on the way to alcarnus. Is that faster then this?

[@Datamike]

The sewers of Caldium is a prime spot for a lot of material farming. There is the elite Ningish (a rare spawn deceiver magi) that drops iron wolves doctrines, as well as an event that spawns Raziel who drops the shard of entsteig plate. I even got griswold's scribblings from a corpse. Ironically, I got two ensteig plates, scribblings, and doctrines before the little snot (bluetooth) decided to drop me some essence.

[@DavadoffTube]

Only thing I have noticed with the plans that dropped for me thus far was that once I trained 'em they never dropped again. So, going out on a limb, I'd suggest always learning any plan that drops assuming that it shortens the possibilities for future plan drops. Thus your odds of getting the plan you want will increase.

[@zhaf]

Nice guide! Can you do Aughild's Authority set next? Me playing on hardcore, the reduce dmg set bonuses and +dmg to elite is really nice!

[@Mindflaywow]

Ziggy, you must have been truely lucky finding those mats in two hours. I'm running the same build as you do - I did about 200 runs until now (quite 4h effective gameplay) and the rare spawned about 7 times and dropped zero! (T5!) What a shame. Anyway thanks alot for another great video! I'm a fan :-)

[@JasonBurkeSyn]

Last time I checked, the superior versions of the white items DID work for crafting (but the grey didn't). Did they change this?

[@connerjoshua]

Diablo III - Best way to farm essence of the twin seas Ziggy, This is a video from box salesman, with a 3rd unique mob to farm to get the Mat for this set. Would be curious for you to try this run and see if its more/less reliable than the sewers.

[@MrSteviegall]

ziggy, would it be worth giving up a 3 set+1 from royal ring of the blackthornes set giving protection from molten/arcane and such for this set for a demon hunter?

[@PolarI3ear]

Ziggy are you going to make guides how to make all the craftable sets ?

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Maybe all the good ones, if that's something people are interested in seeing! Got a great response to the last one and people seem to be enjoying this one so far :)

[@PolarI3ear]

Yes pls do all the sets :)

[@STARQUAK3]

No one can stop... the farming!

[@Raymonboers]

nice videao really like how you explain it all

[@SpaceOrphan]

Did this for about an hour yesterday and couldn't find him. Is it possible the hotfix nerfed it?

[@demonchild56]

If you run battlefields in story mode choosing part 6.2 in quest log you can run through that zone without any enemies.

[@jonsnow3805]

i have this....but is good for mhy wizard?( i dont want to loose my craft items )

[@cocorockzmeh]

Ziggy, where is the best place to get the Danetta crossbows? I'm having trouble finding them...

[@ZiggyDGaming]

They are random world drops so no way really to farm for them in particular. The best way is just t do rifts on a high difficulty for increased legendary drop rate.

[@cocorockzmeh]

ZiggyD Gaming Thank you for the response man. Keep up the good work! I'd love to see more class builds in the future maybe :)

[@Xyoras]

How do i get the plans?

[@Vekell1]

About the legendary Crafting materials, if i remember correctly and i hope i didn't missunderstand the Post, a Blue Post in the Forums said the Drop chances for these Materials, (i just can Remember Master, Torment 1 and 6) that was: Master 25% T1 31% T6 77%

[@MemoriesAreLost]

I have used a Fine Penetrator to craft the Hallowed Condemnation. I'm guessing it's only armour that this doesn't work for therefore.

[@ZiggyDGaming]

hmm interesting! Maybe so or maybe they stealth fixed it in a recent patch!

[@krystianburaczyk5309]

Ziggy u are probably got that question many times but when u gonna upload next episode of survival guide?

[@ksbhattiksb]

What operating system do you use Windows 7 or Windows 8

[@PCBlend]

any way to farm danettas set?

[@CyanideChris]

Thanks man, got 2 in around 8 tries or so! :)

[@justinpreston505]

Hello, I playing Diablo on my PS4 and apparently the crafting plans drop from bounty caches. However I’ve done 10 runs on each act at torment 13 and I not getting any of the captain crimson set plans. Can someone please please tell me how to get them on console. Google is giving me conflicting information.

[@Ktub7]

I think Moon Tooth drops the Murlocket I wonder if he still does.

[@ThiagoLobato]

What is a random world drop?

[@kentcute419]

il been find this monster but i cnt find him.. or i can find him no drop.. how can i assure to get this recipe>? tnxs..

[@KnifeProductionn]

Best tutorial ever

[@NoobPwnr000]

Thanks for the video. Side-question: what's stunning the mobs while you're Vaulting (+Action Shot) through the sewers? Thx.

[@Ben14031994]

It's Danetta's Revenge. "Vault gains the effect of the Rattling Roll rune."

[@arsene_7]

Thanks, you helped me a lot :).

[@kazper1994]

I did the Sewers of Caldeum run several times but never found the Moontooth Dreadshark. Is it possible it is a rare encounter?

[@deattad4256]

do you find that the reapers fear is dropping more often now?

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Yeah it's been fixed, lots of my viewers have been crafting them :D

[@kitelime66]

fun fact: moontooth also drops the murlocket for anybody interested, makes a little murloc sometimes follow you around.

[@mmorpgg]

Coolest item in D3 :P

[@viermidebutura]

y tried some farming yesterday and end up Alt+F4-ing because of the horrible changed to mouse cursor and crashes

[@omegasrevenge]

The second sand shark purple mob is the same mob that drops the easter egg Murlock summoning ammy!

[@HerpMcDerpington]

How did you get so many Death's Breaths?

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Rifts on Torment, you get tons.

[@Xuimaki]

thanks got my two essenses in 3 sewer runs!

[@kseverens]

Well I have been spending roughly 700+ paragon levels of time + several season heroes and leveling 4 more heroes and NEVER got the plans for the crimson. Am I just the unluckiest person alive, or is it not just a random drop?

[@TheMarko23]

This set would be great for the crusader, I have to have it!

[@Vincere1105]

Call me crazy, but this makes 4 videos in a row that yielded no results for me 4 solid hours into farming this item and I can't even successfully find the monsters that supposedly drop the Mats

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Really? Unusual. Maybe you were not recognizing the rubble he spawns from, it's not all that uncommon but he does take a few seconds to pop out and is easy to miss if you go too fast. Enough mats for all three only took me 2 hours to farm.

[@Vincere1105]

I ended up finding him, but only twice in about 30 runs or so. After spending roughly 10 hours farming this Mat, I found simply leaving games until the Razormouth quest popped up to yield the most per hour. But that was my experience, could be different for others.

[@tjd1985]

Matthew Rosso Do it with 3 other people. Almost 1 razormouth quest / minute if there's no leeches.

[@LokirofRoriksted]

Thank you so much for this! I couldn't find him anywhere

[@MrMrTravman]

BIS for some sets, because of cdr.

[@fredsmean]

how can you dash unlimited ?

[@Axiss360]

He has a set which causes tumble to cost hatred rather than discipline, allowing him to tumble much more frequently.

[@fredsmean]

thats amazing D:

[@patctsang]

How does he vault around so much

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Danetta's Set xbows = vault costs hatred instead of discipline. That plus resource cost reduction.

[@missmeeper]

Pretty decent set. I have it on my crusader.

[@mikevall909]

I found a cain's set, is it even worth it. It has magic find? What is the deal with magic find? why is it removed on gear, and is farming on (normal) with my 200k+ DPS,300% MF Monk even worth it, does it effect or hurt my rolls in anyway.? Does anyone know where the Butterfly crafting mat drops?? Sorry for the noob questions, i am a single player kinda a guy and i shy away from the drama and politics of the Forums. Also the game guide is not updated.

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Magic Find is essentially useless, it's been nerfed to only give 10% effectiveness to legendary drops (300% = 30%). It's not worth stacking. The cain's set is only really worth it if you are interested in the bonus XP for paragon leveling. I don't rate it myself but it's an option. The butterflies drop from Magdha I believe but I haven't double checked.

[@ohGohre]

You might want to note what level the Blacksmith needs to be at to craft these items.

[@ahmetpro1665]

Why everyone knows that lvl 70 gear is blacksmith lvl 70 lol

[@ohGohre]

obviously not everyone and there isnt a lvl 70 blacksmith.

[@DerpNinjaGamingFTW]

I got it yay

[@sppd100]

farmed the sewer for 1.5hrs. Only found him 4 times on t3. Got 1 out of 4 kills. :(

[@daudyal8162]

ps 3 ?

[@rardar5378]

been doing this for ages, so fucken hard

[@PinkB00mer]

Btw Ziggy, it is possible to purchase white items from different vendors. Here is a list of the vendors and what they sell. Which white item they sell is random and they sell ascended items. So good luck. :D diablo.blizzplanet.com/blog/comments/diablo-iii-weapon-vendors-merchants

[@kgotter]

Ziggy do a video on Travis days recent blog post. If you need a backup singer you know who to call.... Someone else.

[@schmdchrs]

I'm only seeing a dev journal from over a year ago when I search for "Travis Day blog"... got a link or something?

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Chris Schmidt us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/12471197317 rift buffs!

[@schmdchrs]

ZiggyD Gaming Thanks!

[@RaVeN1K]

You should encorage ppl more to craft the Cain set i think, i crafted it yesterday and went into some T4 and T5 Rifts with 300% MF... trust me guys. MF does make a huge difference. ;D

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Sorry to say, you just got lucky! MF is very weak now in RoS, it was nerfed to only have 10% effectiveness with legendaries. So 300% MF = 30% increased legendary drop rate. So if legendary drop rate is 1% you get 1.3%... not at all worth the sacrifice. Cain's is okay for XP % but I personally don't value XP % all that highly.

[@RaVeN1K]

ZiggyD Gaming Holy crap if thats true then there is nothing left from diablo and they totally stomped the game into the ground. I already have little to no fun in RoS with that i can only say the game was a lot better before RoS. =( What happened to the company who made the best games back in the days, has vivendi & activision totally destroyed our beloved Blizzard =(

[@Quarther]

Found it at Act 1 Halls of Agony Level 1

[@celdoor]

This has turned out to be the worst farm for me. Up on 10+ bounties with no drop, and well 8+ hours today farming the sewer. The mob spawns one of five of six times, but not gotten the mat yet :/ incredibly annoying. Good thing i have one piece on my other monitor to kill time while doing this. Thanks anyway for sharing your tip and location. May the RNG god grant me some drops soon

[@Mursukorva2]

Ring of royal grandeur boom 3set bonus with 2 items

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Exactly, and then you can use another set using that saved slot and do the same thing again!

[@CodingToFreedom]

ZiggyD Gaming First you have to find that ring of course :) That Ring is so high on my wishlist now that I have found cindercoat.

[@Vestolord]

iv spent two days doing bounties and i got fuck all... starting to piss me off

[@rancorx]

22 tries so far not a single time did i get this bounty Edit try 27 it spawned the bounty for the first time

[@JackPS9]

Craft item drop locations enjoy! www.diablofans.com/forums/diablo-iii-general-forums/diablo-iii-general-discussion/83094-guide-legendary-crafting-materials-drop-locations

[@ZeroEscape2074]

it's literally impossible to farm the material alone, 4 player split search is mandatory, I've gone through the whole day only to have the bounty appear twice, and neither times did the material drop, fucking bullshit

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Not literally impossible by any stretch, I got a full set in two hours myself and there are tons of other people here who have done the same. I think your problem is you are relying on the bounty alone, you should check for the bounty then run the sewers. I got 1 from the bounty and the rest from the sewers.

[@ZeroEscape2074]

Only if I'm lucky as you Ziggy, only if. I'm hell bent on getting the belt and the pants at least, so I aint giving up yet
