It took me close to 6 months. But I really didn't spend hours upon hours camping it. I went when I could. Sometimes 1 hour, sometimes 2 hours per day.
None the less, am a proud owner!

Okies, I was told to write the true story of camping for this Shroud...
One of my friends was running around with no coat on. I said, why are you not wearing something on your back? His response was him posting the shroud to me. I never really drooled for anything in this game but this was my first. I had to have it.
I spent days begging friends to spend an hour with me, here and there camping it. Several times, others were camping it as well, so it got a bit frustrating. Months went by and several notums later, I was starting to wander from the idea of ever owning a shroud.
An MP friend of mine, who believes he is a shamen (I keep telling him he's in the wrong game) said "today is the day, I will perform the ancient ritual dance of Scrotum Notum drop." (yes you read that right) I didn't know if I should laugh or be frightened. (Hey, there are some real fun people in this game)
Anyhoo, I got Hollowburn to go out and camp with me. Low and behold, and he will attest to his sentence... every Notum was out there in numbers. It looked like mating season, and no one was camping them! (guess that damn dance worked) I thought, perhaps this was my day.
We happily slayed each and every one of them and to my dismay - NO SHROUD. I guess I should of paid Pestilance (MP) to have done the dance of fertility of the shroud.
A week or two later,(okies-it was month) I go trudging to Pen, this time with a crat and soldier for the hell of it. They killed, I looted. After the 4th kill, I open one up and saw a shroud, stared at it for a second or two, and then ID'd it. I said in team, "Oh crap, it dropped one for an NT." Immediately, one of them yells at me to pick it up and click on it till it said Doctor.
There may be better items to wear on my back, but for what I went through to get this..I proudly wear it. LOL
