So...

At tunkuta, solo, i'd get like 5 embers per hour.

For embers of frost, that was some years back but I think it was 2 or 3 per hour at least.

For Dahn gloves well, I don't remember how many weeks of doing the bosses it takes but it's not much, easiest flame to get, obviously.

But for the flame of resonance, I drop 1 ember  of resonance ever two hours MAYBE. Thi is a 200 hours grind as it stands. That's about how long i grinded for the Nol. This isn't right. Grinding for a flame should be a 20 to 30 hours thing max. If im not getting 2 to 3 embers of ressonance per hour, your drop rate is not fair.

I haven't checked with other people to see if that's standard but i have 41 embers now so it's not like i just started. I think i'm something like two months in at 1 hour and fifteen minutes a day. I grind on arsha only, Level 2 loot scroll and all.

True I agree

Completely agree 

Grind in a better spot and buy them

that's what most of my guildmates do and that's what I had to do too

I agree with your suggestion and they should do the same for Erethea's Limbo, it's a joke the rewards for this game mode while the loot of the key is quite rare and in addition it's very long to do with multiple wave to finally have a single frost ember..

IDK why people are downvoting this more than upvoting. 

Probably the people who got lucky. Cause I can't imagine anyone finds it reasonable this is as hard or harder to get than treasures. I alrready have grinded this more than the map (my first took 40 hours) i think i`m about as many hours in as it took me for compass (80 hours and i have 45 embers) and like i said it should take me around the same time as it took me for the nol (between 175 and 200). I am missing one piece still for the telescope, i`m around 175 hours in, at this rate flame of resonance will take me longer unless i get the full flame to drop but that's unlikely, I grinded Tukunta a lot when i was trying to get La Orzeca and i think i had enough embers for two flames by the time one dropped.

There is no logical reason why this should take longer than treasures. I mean sure, unlike treasures you can buy it but the market isn't exactly flooded with flames or embers and that's no excuse anyway. people who want to grind it should expect to have it before at least 50 hours. Anything else is unreasonable.

Ill repeat myself, none of the other flames were as hard to get on release and it's not like Ator shoes is a better piece of gear than Dahn gloves or Fallen god armor and helmet. The only explanation I have might be a money per hour thing since both darkseekers and highlands pay pretty well but then idk, lower the money they earn in accordance with the embers and flame drop rate increase?

Even with drop rate event i`m still at a drop every  2 hours or so.

If only you could buy embers of resonance too...

...oh wait...

Just do a little of both and the flame will be yours earlier than you think. 

Again... all the other flames took a reasonable time to grind if you wanted to just grind it and not buy. I never bought any embers or flames of any kind. Why is this one different?  Just make it drop twice an hour in average and we're good. It's not a crazy drop rate to expect. It would still be 50 hours to get a 100. I don't know why people would be against this, that's more money to make at Yzrahid and Darkseekers.

Since you were wondering who is downvoting your post and why: I downvoted because I think the ember drop rate is good enough. I went to grind some Yzrahid and Dark Seekers recently for ecology. Yzrahid only took me a few minutes for full S knowledge so I can't say anything for that spot. Dark Seekers I did 6 hours for the Eternal Dark Seeker rare spawn S knowledge. I was averaging 6-7 embers per hour at +370% drop rate. I think your low ember/hour rate might just be a clear speed issue. 

Maybe I just got carried in all 6 hours. But I highly doubt that the normal average would have been below 2 or even 3 embers per hour at good clear speed.
