  • The Absorb Spells Thread

    Ok, so recently I've noticed a lot of people asking about absorb spells, and what quests to do to get them, which, there is none, and what HNM's drop them and so on and so on. So...Being the lovely DRK that I am, I decided to make up a list of prices, and places that you can get the spells from. Enjoy!

    First off, None can be gained from quests. You have to either farm them or buy them.


    Absorb-STR, Absorb-VIT, Absorb-AGI, and Absorb-INT are dropped by level 30 orcs in Davoi, the Bone series in Eldieme, And the Demon series in Zvhal.

    Absorb-MND and Absorb-CHR can be found from a woman vendor in Norg. In a guild shop. (Not positive which one) Left of the stairs.

    nd the infamous Absorb-DEX, can be found on Count Bifrons, the HNM, in Zvhal. Would reccommend some help if you plan to take him down though. Count is a lvl. 41 HNM.

    There is a few other places they can be found, but....These are the most commonly used farmed ones.

    Of course, you can always take the easy and not-so-fun way out, and just buy them at the AH. Currently on Alexander server, all of them, excluding Absorb-DEX, go for anywhere from 1,000-4,000 gil. Which isn't that bad.

    Absorb-DEX on the otherhand, is about 230k at the moment on Alexander, and I've heard stories of 300k on other servers. This is one you might want to consider farming.


    So there you have it. Thanks goes to anyone that posted information about the spells to help me put this together. Most thanks goes to Aldo, as he supplied the majority of information.

      For absorb-DEX, no it's not. Although I do believe that VIT and AGI drop from reapers somewhere in valkrum, or so I've heard.

          Rule of thumb is that beastmen of the same job, in this case DRK-class, will drop spells and armor for it. Some Goblins are DRKs i believe, some in Gustav, Batallia and other areas, so they all have a probability of dropping the first three. Count Bifrons requires an full 2pt alliance of lv60-65s, and pops 1 time a day alongside Demon Wizards. Although it is a lv41 spell, most people would not be able to get that much gil until they aer higher levels. On another note, its going for around 300-250k on Ragnarok, although I paid over 500000gil for it.

                Good information to know, especially about absorb-dex. As I approach level 40, I will be taking a group of my shellmates down to get that, cause I sure as hell ain't paying that much for that spell. Goes for about 200k+ on Valefor... kiss my ass on THAT!
