but yh dont take long if you got abit of time and not so lazy SMILEY
oh and i also was wanting to buy one for months and no one wanted to farm and sell or sell theres so we just did our own.

Of course if you multiply the people involved it's going to be shorter but not everyone can/likes to work with others and not everyone has extra accounts either. Try doing it as a solo 50 and see how long it takes you. (I'm not saying that's how I do it, but that's the only option available to some people.)

Well there is such thing as a "Trial Account" inwhich you can have for like 14 days or something like that and use it to farm by duel clienting, so it is a option available to all =] but you will find most people are just lazy.

There is also a thing called "Real Life" too.....

Or find the end product of the grind just isn't worth it. Or have other things to do. Or just don't have the time.

Plus, for me I just don't want to do the same thing over and over and over and over and over again just for the headgear. A grind is a grind, but this just takes the ***

Also not everyone's rig can dual client.

in that case what i do is dual client long enough to recall my lowbie to both Hardlies SE or W and then i do single client when i spawn my corupter with my lowbie then log back with my normal charchter and go through mansen park NW or stamos C wich ever clossest and go to the monster. then just shoot the npcs pull them further away from the monster and kill them

Still say this quest needs rebalancing, i'm pretty everyone agrees the insane farming grind is not worth the reward.

Sadly so, 99% of people only farm them for themselves (if at all) due to the fact that it isnt financially rewarding farming for others.
And there lies the other problem, if you're farming as part of a group you'll notice the corrupted codes are non-tradeable. One person has to be the farmer for the entire group.

Yes, but the insectide is tradeable, which is 1700 of the 2100 decaying codes you need.

But I do agree, the grind for this item is just ridiculous.
