I don't know if I'm the only one that feels this way, but I'm a level 39 Thaumaturge and I like to farm the secret Mount Olympus boss with my exalted friends, the one who has 30,000 health and his ice minions that have 3,300, (I don't know if I got the minions health right) but anyway he only drops level 90+ gear (that is AWESOME by the way) and I don't know if I should farm anymore since I have a long way to go till 90. And I know that it drops 90 gear cause it's a high health, tough boss meant for higher levels so I don't want to hear any comments like that, so should I stop farming? It is fun and good practice but still, should I wait?
You should do it if you enjoy it, or skip it if you don't. That's pretty much the golden rule for optional content.
I think hard bosses are fun. That one drops rare crafting reagents and a useful pet. Keep the Alpha Omega ring if you get it. You'll want that for sure.
Blaze TheKid101: I haven't really tried or thought about selling the gear cause in all honesty it's really good gear, but I checked the selling prices (you can't sell them in the bazzar) is like in the early 1000's for gold.

if you get the indego boots you can sell them in the bazzar
I've done the boss a few times and i would say the only useful things you could get are the reagents, which are really useful later on in the game, gear from your school (sell the repeats), which might not even be useful when you get to level 90, and possibly the pet, depending on what talents it gets and what pet you already have.
The enchanted armament pet is extremely useful, and drops fairly easily (I had two drop in five battles). Train it to ancient and it gives you two sharpen blade item cards, which are extremely useful. Sharpen blade is an enchantment that adds 10% to the modifier of a regular blade and changes the blade so it stacks with the regular version. If you have your balance tri-blade trained (elemental or spirit blade) this effectively gives you four stacking blades, one school blade, one tri-blade, and a sharpened version of each.
The talents in the first generation enchanted armament gene pool aren't particularly useful, but the sharpen blade cards are worth it in themselves. Better, though, to hatch with someone who has a highly developed version bred to have better talents than the first generation, which you don't need to fight Gladiator Dimachaerus to do. Hatching will cost a large chunk of gold, though, 30-55 thousand depending what you are hatching with.
