Default issnur isles:

hey ReZZDoGG, got one quick tip for you:

i know how you like to farm issnur isles, but why salvage all that merch food when you can do what it's made for.... merch it?

there is a merchant in issnur isles in the little town to the immediate left of kodlunu hamlet. (i farm issnur all the time on my necro, SV + Necrosis spam can nuke bug healers.) he/she also sells ID kits, so if you run out, you can replenish. anyway, hope that helps the isles cash flow a bit.

I wonder if I hit some sort of lag period and on my screen Protective Spirit shows its up, but on the server side maybe it runs out. I usually try to recast it 5-10 seconds before it runs out just in case, but sometimes I still die. Nevertheless the rez shrine is really close and the DP goes away as soon as you hop back in there and kill a few sins anyway.

Awesome build! Great Job!

If you didn't know... Assassin's get alot of Double Strikes, and in Hm they attacking faster... so Spirit Bond don't last long with them. Make sure to use Spirit Bond just before u take any hits when approaching them, then use VwK soon as they start attacking. They should go down with one VwK, unless there is 4 in a group. You should have no problems with sins, just make sure if you use VwK before Spirit Bond runs when aggro'n groups. It only takes acouple seconds for Spirit Bond to run out with sins in HM... if you have to recast Spirit Bond soon as its recharged, and keep doing than until VwK is charged. Then cast a fresh Spirit Bond, then hit VwK quickly.

Well I used to farm there. But only did the run a few times total... I knew there was a merchant there, but I didn't want to run to him everytime my bags were full. Would make the run alot longer than it already is... Plus I'm not so worried about money :P I was just trying to get some gold drops, and sunspear points. And salvaging can make you some money if you get alot of steel... i've done this alot, and I got four 250 stacks of steel over all the farming I did while salvaging. But I only salvage when the farming is long, and drop alot of stuff that I can't hold... then I just make more room to stay out there longer. I keep the gold items to sell or to merch them. I also used to have a char full of stacks of materials including Cloth, Wood, Dust, Iron, Tanned Hide... I used to sell them and make a decent amount of money back. But then again, as I said, I'm not tryin to get the most money out of the run... I got more money than I can spend. And I really don't spend it on anything unless I really need it.

If people do wan't the most money out off the Issnur's run, you can run back and fourth to merchant to get the most profit. It's a long run, and alot of drops... merch them all and you can make a lil chunk of change.

So far, it seems like there's none, but it's only a matter of time until someone finds a farming spot in EotN.

@NJudson:
SoA + VwK is imba if you are having troubles with aggros, just like hp tanking, use spirit bond before VwK, when it ends cast VwK and SoA, then spirit bond and VwK Etc ... You can aggro as many mobs as u want and even if u dont have dmg reversal it is still faster to aggro more mobs.

EDIT: Doh, im stone, u explained what i wanted to mean ReezDoGG

You don't need to use SoA with VwK active... hit Spirit Bond a second before VwK ends, then quickly hit SoA to take some pressure off of Spirit Bond. Then just before SoA ends, hit another Spirit Bond, and VwK should be ready. Make sure to always cast a fresh Spirit Bond just before casting VwK, So you don't take any damage that might kill you while casting. I have taken groups of up to 15 without SoA, and all i had to do was spam Spirit Bond... soon as it was recharged I hit it again, and you can do this over and over until VwK is ready, then hit Spirit Bond, then VwK quickly. But thats only because I accidently aggro'd more than I wanted to... SoA is recommended if you want to take on bigger groups than normally.

I don't think so. There's no "outside" of Ring of Fire. You get there by traveling on a ship, so why would there be a portal to go just outside?

It's in the beginning of the mission, I believe. Yes, with infused armor equipped, just hit the Enter Mission button, and voila, you have Jade Hammers in front of you. Mursaat Hammers are quite rare and expensive, so it will take a while until you get one, but don't give up.

Ring of Fire

In HM do you have enough time after the Mursaat group have gone to aggro the Jade's and run to the 'safe' spot?

Considering you have no running move the time frame would be tight to make it! I haven't yet tried it but if you say it can be done so be it!

There's also something called a 330 Jade Farmer. Only difference is, it's with an Ele, and uses prot spirit and Stoneflesh to reduce damage to zero. According to the OP of that video, as soon as the Mursaat move, you gotta go to!

Click here.


Hopefully the OP of that video's reading, since that guy's also got an account on Guru for quite a long time.

Just learn from how he moves around to the "safe area" and you should be alright.

No, he's not trying to be cool, and if you read the dialogue carefully, he's teaching you a little bit about aggro control.

I've sometimes hard trouble with that two, but what I normally do is, stick right next to where Togo is. Most of the time they'll change targets. Hope that helps.

This build is great <.< I need locations to farm though q.q

isn't there like some bugs or something in skyway?

All i been doing is stalking nephilias and the termites on plains of jargin. 1 gold and 3 lockpicks in 3 runs.... thats still awesome since it takes about 5 minutes each time.

But yeah... they just kill themselves in seconds... it's unreal. I need to go beat tyria again so I can do super fast mino and hydra runs.

Any other locations I should know? Note i do have factions beat on this rit.
