Great video! Thanks for uploading. I wouldn't farm elementalists simply because they take a very long time to kill. I'd just kill warriors, zone, kill warriors again, zone, etc. That way you get more drops imo.

Well I've done maybe 30 of these runs yesterday and today. In the first hour I got 6 golds, (1 flamberge and 5 runes). Also probably a dozen purples, mostly jade armguards and one warrior tome. In the most recent 10-15 runs drops have been pretty poor, mostly whites, jade bracelets, armguards and bo staffs. I think its highly random. In one pair of runs I got 3 golds (all of these doing only the first 2 sets of knights). Its short and easy enough I can do it while cooking dinner, minding other stuff etc. which I like. Good find. Thanks. I'll be looking for that platinum sword.

Thanks for sharing the quick and safe farming location. Decent little spot to get some quick golds for your title.

Usually get a gold every few runs (at the start of a session). 2 Golds and a Purp from 6 dudes ain't a bad effort

Couldn't the standardised 55 Mo/D build take down somewhat more enemies than just the first 6?

The point of this run is to do it fast, zone and repeat. Mo/Me with Mantra of Resolve can take any group there. Nothing can kill the Rits (maybe SS... haven't tried it) but killing all the other groups is just too time consuming. That's why you just take out 6 warriors, zone, and repeat. Time = money

I prefer long farms as they tend to be rather less.... mind-numbing...
But I get your point...

If you chain Shield of Judgement with Arcane Echo (SOJ, Echoed SOJ, SOj) you can kill the ritualists. If theres 2 in a group then depends on luck (you kill them the same or you stay forever trying).

Heres the build i played around with a little bit to farm these. takes me no time flat, and its very simple. Haven't even came close to dieing once. Only a few golds, nothing special so far, but over all its a fun famr. Heres a video i made of it a few mintues ago.

farming this area is not much feasible as they use to a week ago because i noticed i didn't get the number of rare item as i used to. =) maybe it's because of the numerous Mo/Me bots that is starting to overfarm these area. you can notice them in there bahavior and usually they have no guild and no title displayed (funny names too)
