re: War of Light II Collections

So there are 4 new collections with the new DLC:
Metropolis Battlezone Scraps (6 pieces) -- yields a HUGE Green Lantern Statue
Aftermath of Rage (6 pieces) -- yields a Red Lantern Corps Wall Banner
Amethyst Affections (9 pieces) -- Not sure yet; need one more piece
Mist Connections (10 pieces) -- yields a back style, Mist Container Backpack; basically one of the mist cylinders strapped to your back with the mist swirling inside
So over a 90 minute period of farming at three different times since the DLC launched, I was able to get everything but one piece. Based on my purely anecdotal evidence from that time period, here are some thoughts:
For Aftermath, the Severed Ring Finger is the hardest piece.
For Metro BZ, they all seem pretty easy.
For the mist collections, I feel they are all going to be difficult, as this collection dropped the least. That said, Catwoman and Harley seemed more common than the others.
For Amethyst, all seem easy except the Ring. That is the piece that has continuously eluded me.
Overall, if you spend a little time, you can avoid buying almost all of these from the broker and save some money. One Radar scanner allowed me to loop the area 2-3 times. The area for the new items is limited to the street in front of Lexcorp tower on the far west border and the water treatment area on the far east. They did hide some down around the dam, so there are a couple of trips that way. Amethyst pieces seem to stick around courthouse/museum area, BZ everywhere, Mist everywhere, rage everywhere.
They did put a couple in areas that you can't get to due to the mist causing damage as you try to collect it -- there was one that was always impossible for me to get.
Now, the really good news: If you can access War of Light I, then you can get to this new area. Just go to main BZ platform and use the teleporter to get to the historic district. The NPCs will leave you alone as long as you are careful about grabing what you need.
Go have fun....

Thanks for posting the information and the pic. Man am I going to go through scanners, but I really like this item. Almost as cool as a tardis console.

After taking a break for a couple of days, I did another search -- mid-way through a scanner, I found the one piece I needed to finish the 4th collection.
I now have the snazzy shirt as well.
One interesting thing -- unlike the other "hero/villain/company" shirts/hoodies, this one allows you to change the colors....
