For the most part I'd have to do some digging, but it typically comes out a few times in a streak whenever hell trips are going down a lot. Basically, the mob that has it isn't extremely tough (relatively) and is with a somewhat more famous mob with a much more famous/coveted piece of gear. People tend to gun for that, and then end up having to kill this other mob in the process, and then someone ends up with the item in question.

A lot of it, yeah.

I don't see any reason why it couldn't be replicated. Numerous 2-3 character hell trips over the years have seen at least one of their number survive to the end. Give any of the players who can do that the same character to play and I think they could do it.

The trick is, the doing of it is mostly an exploration/mob-killing-savvy style challenge. The players who excel at this kind of stuff (honestly, I'd rate myself as a stronger player in this respect vs. as a PKer, especially in the first few years I played CF) and the kind of players who can build an A-P with that kind of overwhelming damage/controls/hit points tend not to be the same people.

Not that long ago, I watched a extremely non optimal non-imm two man team nearly kill the head honcho of the Silent Tower. I wouldn't have thought those characters could even take a seriously shot at it, but they were smart about it in a number of ways and pulled out a few tricks I hadn't accounted for. You give people like that a Cabdru and I don't see why they couldn't do it. (Aside: I wish you guys had tried again!)
