Vanquished of Monsters charm?

While we're waiting for the servers to come back up, I was wondering if anyone yet has found a good use for this charm? The description makes it seem not so useful, but was wondering if anyone else found a good use for it. Has anyone tried "trading places" with a creature yet?

I would save it until the next full moon quest! Sounds like it speeds up collecting items for collections! The zillion collections you need to charge with a bazillion chargers!!

I've been using it, but it hasn't made anything significant happen, other than I don't need a turtle running to get things to drop from the roamers. Someone posted earlier that using it and a turtle at the same time made whole collections drop for the. I have not had that happen and I've used a turtle several times over the last 7 days.

It was nice not having to worry about wasting a turtle, since I rarely play the whole time one is running. Knowing the monster charm was running, meant I could banish anytime over the last 7 days while visiting.

Yesterday I missed out on the last day of my monster charm because of the switch to the new server by GI. I figured that was that...oh, well.

Today, I went to my manor and they restored the charm!!! For another 7 days!:-). It may not do much, but I am thankful that I have another opportunity to use it. :D

I have had the charm running and I have not noticed any improvements to drops. With it running on its own there are times when nothing drops and at best one, maybe two items, but that would happen without the charm anyway.

I agree. I am not impressed by the charm. I see little to no improvement to drop rates. Disappointed

I pretty much don't do anything without a turtle anymore, so sounds like a waste. I guess I'll hold them and see if there is more benefit during a special quest in the future.

After the latest update, you cannot use a turtle when the Vanquisher of Monster charm is running. Problem I have is that the charm will not expire and go away. It restored itself for the third time over 5 days ago, which means I have another day and a half of waiting to see if it would expire. The charm was only useful during the monster event, not helpful at all now. Is anyone else in this situation or have heard anything more about this?

Can someone also tell me if using an artifact is as effective in finding items as a turtle (even though the turtle hasn't been that great either)? Isn't it unfair that I need to use one or more artifacts instead of one turtle?

Finally, i just want to say that this forum is great! I am so grateful for the information everyone shares. Special shout out to Queen Victoria for her amazing thread! Sorry for going off topic!

Thank you!

Good to hear. I've got another 24 hours to wait, but at least I know the end is near. Thank you!

I have the same problem since i update ! while the vanquisher runs i can't use turtle or cloves it says i'm just running this kind of charm...and it isn't so, they are quite different! The vanquisher doesn't help while visiting rooms. The real problem is that as it finish to run it starts automatically again ... So i contacted GI support to complain and ask them to remove this charm fm my manor.

I forgot to mention that I did email GI Support, probably because they forgot to ever respond to me. So, i am just hoping VoM goes away forever in 6 hours!
