Default Raptor farm for bored monks.

Since I'm still a die hard fan of 55 hp monks and because there's little to do in pvp land most of the time, I decided to make a working 55 mo build for HM raptor nestiling farm in riven earth.

I honestly don't know if (m)any people still bother with that place (you can find it by simply running right after zoning and then down into the cave), but it's good for some easy farm when you've got nothing better to do.

So, because rapts always scatter on any damage or degen, I decided to use an asuran pve skill called radiation field.

The whole build uses:
Balthazar's spirit
Blessed Aura
Protective spirit
Shield of absorption
Shielding hands
Radiation field
Ray of Judgement [E]
Mantra of resolve

16 or 15 (if you dont have smite scalp) in smite
13 in df
10 in prot (breakpoint for soa to last 6 s)
rest in inspiration magic (so you lose about 8 e each time they'd interrupt you, but losing 9 wont be a prob either)

OwUWEmh0EH/OYSyDAE1D3VrEul+MRAA

The rest is a generic 55 mo armor weapon set with grim cesta, totem axe or any other stat replica as well as generic 55 mo armor set with all sup runes.

The do-not's:
~ do not stack small prots, chain them instead, because you will die even with 1 s of downtime on either of them.
~ do not lure the boss group unless you wish to suffer death by twisting jaws
~ do not aggro adult raptors that patrol the entrance to the cave (wild strike>manta of resolve)
~ do not attack baby raptors because their d stab spam will make you lose energy because of mantra

Start off by putting up ps, then mantra and sh, run around and gather everything on the left side of the room while chaining sh with soa, then run into a nice corner, use radiation field first and ray straight after.

The only problem with the build is that many of them will die simultaneously, hence decreasing the amount (and quality?) of loot you receive, but hey. This build is more for fun then for making srs moneyz.

Added a screenie for loot demonstration.

feel free to post any nice drops you may receive.

by the time they do they're almost dead because of the degen from radiation field and disease finishes off the remaining ones.
