Raid progress

I had a question about raiding progress, what I should be or shouldn't be doing.
Currently we are in T3~ raid content and looking to farm some T3 mobs or best way to obtain = gear. Oddly enough we Skipped Tier 2 by farming The Deep which is a 65+++ 6 man exp zone the rewards from there with pristine stats was God like for us. Now that we've farmed up we are doing VD maps and scouting Tier 3 Named. My question is do any higher Tier zones have Trash mobs that can yield a decent reward? I would like to start Farming T4 zone Trash mobs for a chance at drops when we have no targets up in our Tier. Changing things up a bit from VD maps keeps people more interested.

Any input is appreciated.
 
Almost every raid zone has trash drops that are near their tier in quality.

If our crew was able to farm The Deep effectively you may want to try checking for upgrades in Cmal 3+ , First Ruins, Hmal, and even Fairies and Emberflow. 18 man raids provide good gear, but not necessarily the be all and end all for each tier.
 
I thought about possibly doing some Hmal at some point but really don't know enough about the zone yet.
 
dragonhorn keep and storms eye can drop gems which you can use to make combine/ornate armor thats pretty nice too.
 
the deep is a 6 man raid zone? no really i'm a bit clueless can someone confrim that, i don't see it on the wiki at all... thank you.

No. It's designed as an xp (typically 6-man) zone, but it's not restricted as such like Cata, Cmal, Emerflow etc. Not being 65+++, they brought a raid instead of a group, which is perfectly fine.

This is good advise - leads to combine armor later.
Also faction binding the drops from these zones is a good boost.
The Gemstone quest for those zones = Aug that all toon should have (+10 on all resists).

ya but empress and deep dhk is like tier 4iirc. so they wouldnt be able to do that quite yet
 
Plane of Water has some good stuff. You could also check out these zones:

Plane of AirEverchill (the giants)Plane of Valor (might be too tough)
Plane of Valor is the only zone I think you could conceivably get gear from trash farming at a rate that is similar to hitting real raid targets. I wouldn't really recommend this strategy because grouping or doing VD maps will be a much better way to improve your characters.
 
Yeah I think Valor would smash a Tier 3 guild , even the trash. Those Valor Guards (especialy the AoE ones) would destroy them. Might be able to hand just wisps... double cats would eat them to.


Good call on LoB I had forgotten about those trash drops.
