Anybody got advice about farming these things efficiently? Hanging out in wildernesses? Is there a timer in the background?

Some folks figured out how to split & farm mutliple instances and then bounce around between them to fill the lanterns fast; it sounded well done, but to me that just seems like a lot of effort. I just level and get the kills along the way.

I was going to say something about opening 6 instances, then all joining a party. It does seem like a lot of effort and wonder if worth it.

From my experience, the higher level you are the better the harness you get for killing them. If you aren't running the Skull lanterns, level an iconic and start lvl 15.

1. Start an Iconic and farm all gear you need for a Hardcore run based on your style of play. Plan on Non-Hardcore Lanterns with that Iconic if you are going that route also.
2. Save/use xp stones on Lv 1 toon until you are lv 3 (make sure to get Hardcore Lanterns at lv 1 before leveling to 2).
3. Run Elite for 4/5 lanterns, start with the one you want most, do not go round robin with filling them.
4. The last Lantern requires Reaper runs start that at the level/group/gear you are comfortable with. Note you could run your Iconic up and TR back down to level 1 for the reaper to have extra power for the run.

Note: I am using the gear farming to also complete Sagas for my personal Guild. This gets me the gear I need and the Guild Renown.

Reminder: YOU DO NOT HAVE TO EQUIP THE LANTERN ON QUESTS YOU ARE WORRIED ABOUT RUNNING WITH IT ON!
Also Alt+F4 is your best friend.
