I've been noticing that if I farm Ettins in the morning and early afternoon, I get quite a few drops where as if I do it in the evening, I'm basically wasting my time. For example, today I farmed from 11am to 2pm central time and 23 runes. Several were gold and 2 of them unlocked.
I also make a point to go back for the Ettins by Beetleton on each trip, even though they don't have as many drops. I think it helps to trick the server into thinking that I'm not farming since I'm spending time in another server before returning for more. And every now and again they'll drop a gold.
I'll have to count, but I think I only have 10 more runes to unlock.

Just to let you know Ettins rune drop rate is still very good, in the course of just a few hours I got tons of major/ minor runes and 14 or so Superior runes 2 of which were Super Vigors.. lol both on my last run. So those of you needing runes for you new chars and heros next week may want consider a little farming that little o' spot again.

It must be because a lot of people have stopped farming there due to the decrease in rune prices, and I say, good riddance, more for us!
