There are Gargoyles in Craglorn between H. R. Citadel / Tombs of the Na-Totambu). That's where I got the stoney heart.
Has anyone found Buzzing Spine from Wamasu yet? RNG might not be in my favor, but have probably killed 1200 Wamasu (yes, I spent a week and countless hours, doing a circuit on lower half of the place!) and have received plenty of blue drops, but no collectibles.
EDIT: 11/12 - finally found it Wamasu, south of Hatching Pools.

In my case, RNG is really irreversibly stubborn against me.
I've been trying in vain for years.
Completionism has a limit.
I reached for it and gave up.
Excellent spot, just pick up the Right of Theft quest from Nara right outside Dread Vullian and it'll walk you straight into the cave (it'll be locked otherwise). You keep access after completing the quest as well.quarnyrwb17_ESO wrote: »Brass Anklets was one of the few I still needed but I was delaying because I couldn't think of a good spot outside of DC zones (my characters are all DC)... Anyhow I found the best spot so far! Plenty of Nereid to kill non-stop, they are inside Nereid Temple Cave which is south-west of Dread Vullian (follow the road) in Greenshade.
I'm not saying that these things should just be handed to us, but they also shouldn't be this difficult to get. Why add something to the game that less than 1% of the people will ever have? It makes me think that they put an intern in charge of the drop rates, and that intern didn't understand decimals. Seems petty, but it's one of the major reasons that I stopped playing as much as I used to. I probably play 15-20 minutes per day now, and I'll never spend another dollar in the Crown Store.

Or is it simply just kill X monster over and over until RNGesus blesses us?

Has anyone got any insight about this?
- Luminous Blood Sac - Hoarvor in Xal Ithix (Shadowfen).
- Polished Shell Shard - Mudcrab in the beach north of Harborage (Stonefalls) - may not be a good place, too few mudcrabs around but fortunately I found it almost immediately.
- Multifaceted Eye - Nix-Hound in Greymist Falls (Stonefalls).
- Primal Sproutling - Spriggan in Logging Camp (Eastmarch).
- Brass Anklets - Nereid in Nereid Temple (Greenshade).
- Imp's Effigy - Imps around Deleyn's Mill (Glenumbra).
- Icebound Vertebra - Ice Wraiths in Frozen Fleet (Wrothgar) LOCATION NOT LISTED IN THE POST - this was a b***h to find (or better: the drop has been fast enough, the real problem was to find a good place with decent number of ice wraiths; around Frozen Fleet there are, kill some and do a little ride on the ice, you will find some more, then back).
- Glowing Remnant - Wisp in south-west Corner of Crow's Wood (Stonefalls) - After that I've seen a ton of Wisps in Deep Graves (Shadowfen), may be a better spot to farm.
- Knotted Heart - Lurcher near Chill House (Glenumbra).
- Troll Skull - Troll in Logging Camp (Eastmarch).
- Ogre Toe Ring - Ogre in Shinji's Scarp (Stormhaven) - and there I've seen another player got the Bear component too he was farming.
- Stony Heart - Gargoyle in Qharroa Ruins (Bangkorai) - wasted hours out of Rahn'Za school of Warriors, never dropped for me there.
- Hand of Glory - Zombie in Vile Laboratory (Coldharbour).
- Chattering Skull - Skeletons in Forgotten Crypts (Deeshan) - while farming for another item.
- Wraith Shackle - Wraith in Forgotten Crypts (Deeshan) - this is hard because there are not places with good number of wraiths, dropped for me from one the wraiths in a boss room after the skyshard (there are usually 2 wraiths in there and one ghost, I was always running from the dungeon entrance to that room and no further).
- Crypt Jar aka Tomb Urn - The various Anka-Ra guys in Lost City of Na-Totambu (Alik'r Desert) - this was even fast, wasted time around Seeker's archive in Craglorn, never dropped for me there.
- Ectoplasmic Discharge - Ghosts in Aphren's Hold (Stormhaven) - this took a lot for me to drop, the place is very good though for both number and spawning time. UPDATE - Found another one in Selfora (Deshaan) during a quest, dropped from a human ghost (those blue-violet spirits).
- Shimmering Alit Bezoar - Alit in Khenarthi's Roost beach on the South (from Shattered Shoals to almost Sugar-Claws), very convenient area to farm, plenty of them and respawn is fast.
- Wolf's Tooth Necklace - Wolf in Glister Vale (Auridon).
- Malformed Kagouti Tusk - Kagouti in the swamps (SOUTH Shadowfen) all the swamps zone there is plenty of them and other creatures too for the achievements, so that's a worthy area to farm a lot.
- Huge Mammoth's Tooth - Mammoths around Shatul Wayshrine (Wrothgar) LOCATION NOT LISTED IN THE POST - there is a fair number around (five or six) and the spawn time is very good.
- Bile Gilt - Bull Netch between Dhalmora and Hidden Dagger Landing Site (Bal Foyen) - this one is hard if you don't get lucky, I've not found any place with a good number of them, always a couple in the best case and no more, I would like to know if one exists. UPDATE - Found 3 Bull Netches very close to each other between Ghost Snake Vale Wayshrine and Lagomere Dolmen (Deshaan), 3 is max I've seen.
- Cruel Collar - Jackals in Ogre's Bluff (Alik'r Desert).
- Buzzing Spine - Wamasu in the swamps (south Shadowfen area).
That's all, these were the ones I was missing and farmed. Good hunting!

All I have left to find now is Ectoplasmic Discharge, so off to Tanzewil I go...
