I used to be able to farm the woe spreader on my sin now that they "destroyed" and nerfed the living daylights out of the sin I can't even farm tacos. So I was looking for a build for my ele to farm him and thought I did but low and behold the can get through anything I throw at ssesik woe spreader cause he is a necro. Any one have a build to farm him on Ele or something. They keep nerfing everything soon we won't even be able to play this game and I DOUBT I will waste my money to get GW 2 because of how they are destroying GW 1

You can't be serious.

Green farm nerfed?! when did that happen :O

Ah, this reminds me of that guy after the Shadow Form 'nerf' who said "Anet nerfed farming, they killed shadow form farming and I can't do anything any more!"

His proof?

He made a youtube video trying to farm bosses with the exact same build he used before the nerf (yes, including using both glyph of swiftness and deadly paradox to maintain SF with 16 shadow arts...).

And yes, he was absolutely serious.

Some people just can't adapt or think outside the box somebody else made and handed to them.

Edit: Found the video, watch it for pure unfiltered hilarity!

Listen you can farm just about any green fairly easily with a spirit spammer. Just bring a full party with you, preferably loaded with single target damaging skills that you can direct targets for (you don't want your party killing the boss accidentally, so minions actually might be counterproductive). Party wide running buffs like "Fall Back!" are great for getting you there and letting you just run past mobs on the way. Have your party clear out anything that you can't readily handle solo (Dervishes tend to kill your spirits fairly readily and Monks are just a pest). Then flag your party away off the radar so their names are entirely greyed out. Now just nuke the boss and any stragglers with your spirits. It's really all about getting a feel for the mob that you are working with and knowing a good point to send that party running away. I farmed a whole bunch of Ssynn's staffs and Woe Spreaders really easily with this method. Another staff that not a lot of people farm is Sadi's Benediction which is nice for ER Protters.

ArenaNet buffed Shadow Form. You must be doing it wrong. Look on PvX for builds if you don't want to create them yourself. Woe Spreader is a crappy weapon.

Mustache Mayhem · Jul 27, 2010, 05:08 PM // 17:08

woe spreader is actually one of the easier greens to farm because you can pull him out of his mob.. it can be done with any class- run up from gayla =] I'm with you on the sf nerf.. there was a lot of cool farms you could do with sf that your average knucklehead couldn't.. it wasn't nerfed that badly though- can still use

just the old way made simple farms like this brainless.. try pulling it works great.. I'm all for farmers in the game- keeps it rolling otherwise you end up with the usual supposed elitists telling you how slow they want you to play and noones left in the servers

Lanier · Jul 27, 2010, 05:11 PM // 17:11

lol at anyone who says that nerfs (and particularly ones to farming) are destroying the game.

Shayne Hawke · Jul 27, 2010, 05:17 PM // 17:17

Who even wastes their time farming greens these days?

Benderama · Jul 27, 2010, 05:32 PM // 17:32

funny how destroying a sin is some people's view. at least it's more fun now.
PLEASE don't get GW2, like you said because it will be better off without people always wanting god mode and complaining when the game is fair.

You call solo farming playing the game? If you are serious about this statement then all I have left to say is, don't "play" this game anymore.

Maybe microsoft will make a farm simulation someday, then you can farm all you like.

I think it's fun. I usually just drop them in explorable areas when I am in parties.

Ka Tet · Jul 27, 2010, 06:28 PM // 18:28

Perhaps he was being ironic. Unless there's a secret underground market for the woe spreader that I've never heard of.

Danax · Jul 27, 2010, 06:32 PM // 18:32

usually delete my greens...

loopysnoopy · Jul 27, 2010, 06:32 PM // 18:32

I've decided to re-create my sin just cos this made me think hold on a sec what about the way of the assassin build which works great at farming woe's and other boss greens.

Well to be honest.

This really ins't the right forum for this topic (since it's QQing about Farming it should be in farming).

You are asking for builds...which you aren't supposed to do (PvX wiki it).

You are complaining about you being to lazy to look up new builds to farm for a green (which isn't profitable at all to begin with).

So really this is all on you.
