So I’ve been farming this delve all weekends and have not gotten the lead that drops here from trash mobs.
It is in here right? Does it normally take this long for one lead?

    Yes it's in there.
    I have farmed it twice.
    First time it took 2 hours and my second time it took 4 days.

    Depends on your luck, took me ~3 hours of farming.

    Took me several days but on the last try I got it from the first skeever I saw.

    Took me 10-12 hours to get that lead in that Oblivion-forsaken place - never again!

    It helps if you group with people because you can loot each other's kills.

    Read this for tips if you haven't already: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/552688/pale-order-ring-bad-man-s-hollow/p1

    I was seriously considering necroing it with the release of Greymoor as DLC as there will be a new wave of people farming it now.

    My tips to you and anyone else reading: Group with people to loot share. Slow dps (basically light attack and maybe 1 skill) so you can share mobs with people not in your group. Leave instance for 10-15 minutes if it gets too crowded with people who refuse to group up. That should put you in a fresh instance that will gradually fill up as you continue farming.

    That's just a few tips and could be useful for farming the new Blackwood leads as well, in addition to the Dead Man's Hallow specifics in that thread I linked.

    This lead is notoriously difficult to find here. There are reasons for this, namely the fact that -lots- of players are all looking for it at same time as well as some mobs drop it and others will not as there are other leads here as well.

    It took me about 2 days of farming on and off, couple hours at a time before I finally found it. And one thing that helped was logging during the late evening hours because fewer people means more mobs as well as statistically speaking a much higher chance of getting the lead per mob.

    During Prime Time with lots of folks looking for it you stand no real chance of finding it, especially with everyone telling you to group up for it that means people outside of a group will be at extreme disadvantage of finding the lead on their own. However during my time there we had no groups running and neither was I in one. Just lots and lots of people looking for the same thing, running around that place wildly looking for a single mob to kill.

    I camped the mobs at the beginning and had very good luck at always being able to tag them. Still how long depends on your rng.

    Picked it up within 10 mins. Guess it’s just luck at the end of the day

    It can take a bit.
    I've farmed for the ring twice. The other leads dropped fast both times for me and seem to come faster the more pieces I had, until the one in DMH >.<

    First time it took a day or two and only actively grinding for it for a couple hours total, I got lucky it seems.

    The second time took me several days and I'd grind through there a couple hours a day between 2 characters.

    Seems like that last lead is the biggest pain to get.

    Definitely worth the 25 transmutes for extra copies of this ring, rather than try to farm for that component again.

    Why did you farm it a second time?

    About an hour for me. Knew it would be a pain so I did it around ram eastern when my server was dead and I had the place to myself.

    An hour was nothing so I can't complain but they couldn't have picked a worse public dungeon to tie a lead to farming trash mobs. Every other public dungeon has twice as many to kill.

    Dead? It should be Bad. Are you sure you are farming right public dung? ;)

    Been farming there for 4 days now so probably about 10-12 hours worth of farming. Havent had too many other players at most there were 3 or 4 others. Most players refused to group so it is pretty annoying. Zos definitely should up the drop rate given how bad it is & how few enemies are even available

    another tip is to farm early morning or deep night.

    I thought I got it in ten minutes at first - but it’s not the only gold lead in there :( qq 😆

    The actual lead took a solid couple of hours with quite a few running around farming - not fun but with the sticker book, it’s one and done.

    The ring legit delivers though - so you’ll be happy you put in the time. Well worth farming.

    Yeah, it's a total pain. I have completed this ring three times. The first time took about 2 hours, the second time about 1 hour, the last time about 5 minutes. I think it is best to farm Dead Man's Hollow early morning U.S. east coast time. FYI: Even the skeevers and the beetles can drop the gold lead, so kill them too.

    I've only spent 2-3 hours on this so far, no lead yet. Given the recent changes to the set and that I'm already pretty close to a no death on vVH (first clear was may 24,may 3 1 was 14/15 in under an hour) I'm putting this on hold so I can get frustrated with leads for the kilt instead.

    For both it only took me about an hour for each. IDK (I don't know) if it matters if it is the first or last item you are farming for the ring.

    But I was farming it with a magplar spamming jabs lol.

    This does not exist along with vMA inferno staff and medusa inferno staff. ZOS is playing with us.
