Tips

• Don't farm Fire Boars just for the shoe. It's a very rare drop, so treat it as a bonus while you hunt Fire Boars for EXP.
• This isn't a meso farm: 921 mesos per shoe is small. The value is the 4,430 EXP and the wand material each time.
• The shoe is tradeable, so check the Free Market if you'd rather buy than farm.
• Fire Boars also drop Fire Boar's Tooth (Maya's Second Collection needs 20) and Diamond Ore, which you can cut into the Diamond for Mr. Wetbottom's Secret Book.

Still being confirmed

• Fire Boars are the known source of the shoe, but its drop in Classic isn't confirmed yet.
• Ice and Wing are meant to be 50/50, but some players say they aren't.
• Whether there's a wait between repeats isn't confirmed.
