I bought this for 1K plat on the Nameless today. I don't know if the dude knew what he had...or...if he was just being nice. The rarity of this spell is simply amazing. I've been loking for it for at least 2 weeks, if not longer.
I soloed some of the carrionmancers (who supposedly drop it), looking for it to drop and after 2 hours, I realized that A. the exp sucked for the difficulty involved, B. the mobs hit casters (even casters with full defensive skills and decent gear) like Mack trucks and C. It would probably be faster to skill up research to get it. Incidently Carrionmancer Marrowroot spawns like crazy, and there's another skelly "Deathrattle" that spawns there, and he hits for 4K. After attempting to slow him/mez him, somehow to KILL him, because he was seriously mucking up the program, I said "**** it" and left.
SO when I saw it for 1K in the bazaar today, I was like "Wow."
Do yourself a favor, if you see this for sale, grab it. Because farming it is a super, royal PITA, and people don't research it very much. And it's absolutely necessary for a mage to have, these days.
