Daedric Lord Slayer Question

Chesimac · December 2014

Hey all
Recently, wanting a break from pledges and pvp, I wanted to farm the daedric lord slayer to add to my collection of titles. Over the last 2 days, I have soloed 22 dolmens as an ep player in vr zones (grahtwood and stormhaven) hoping to find one of the bosses I need, the ogrim brothers or dremora pirate (who according to http://tamrieljournal.com/eso-general-executioner-daedric-red-dye-guide/ spawn in those zones) However, I have not found a boss at any dolmen and have cycled through them all at least twice. I also keep the pinions open until they are all open. I understand and accept that this achievement will take a while to get, but is there any helpful tips anyone has to killing any of the general executioner bosses?
Thanks

VR and Craglorn zones = random world boss (any of the 16 world bosses can spawn) They have a 5% chance to spawn (1 in 20) The web you linked says 10-15% but when my guild mates and myself, the numbers we checked it was more like 5%

Since you are EP and you want the Ogrim Brothers, you should be hitting the 3 dolmens in Deshaan, so you have a 33% of the boss you want, but you will have to hit over 20 dolmens on average before getting a boss. (yes, that means clearing the same 3 dolmens over 7 times each)

When I was farming these boss, I just jumped around the 3 dolmens in the zone, and you should be able to clear all three before the first re-pops (10min timers) If a boss has spawned, there also appears to be a 1hr time before that same boss can re-pop again

Have you done a search? There are several threads on the topic, including where to find specific generals. Your best chance is to run pre-vet dolmens in your home alliance. Your odds are significantly improved. If you are not alone at these dolmens, the polite thing is to allow lower level players to do the heavy lifting, and just heal or step in when they need a hand. If you ignore them and blast through the dolmens, be prepared for complaints headed your way, probably deserved. I'm pretty sure pinion closing is irrelevant-at least I have seen nothing reliable that proves otherwise. I needed 6 or 7 generals when I started doing the pre-vet dolmens, and got them all within a few days of occasional play.

Thanks didn't know there was a better chance in your home alliance

Do yourself a favor and search for the thread to which I referred. Each zone has specific generals that spawn. Knowing which ones you need and where they spawn will quickly get you the achievement. BTW, the color is one of the best Reds in the game.

You should consult this:
http://tamrieljournal.com/eso-general-executioner-daedric-red-dye-guide/

It gives a nice overview where to find each general dependent on which alliance you are.
