Hey guys I found a new way to farm the 6 ecto droppers in TOPK in 3 mins in HM (as an A/E)

here is the template code:

OwZj0lf8YSSf6MHQvlCQ5i1g4OA

[Glyph of Swiftness] [Shadow Form] [Shroud of Distress] [Asuran Scan] [Golden Lotus Strike] [EBoH] [Critical Agility] [Death's Charge]

cast the EBoH and then AS after SF for the benefits( the order of casting matters)

This build uses daggers and the standard SF armor

you will be killing them one by one but with the decrease in HP it take no time at all and you can save time cuz you dont have the group them up.

Have fun guys!

can anyone think of any way to improve this build?

Does Asuran Scan go over the cap on SF? It used to, but after the update im not sure. I know BUH still does, but that just proves anet's epic failure.

if you put up EBSoH and AS after you recast sf then it can go over the damage cap

I've been using another build with Scythe which works in HM:

Owpk8xjZauOEPiOzBUN4iIujMIzF

Deadly Paradox
Shadow Form
Shroud of Distress
Critical Agility
Way of the Master
Death's Charge
Aura of Holy Might
Mystic Sweep

Requires some good balling skills, as you only want to hit ONLY 3 monsters at a time. Otherwise you might be hitting a fourth one as well and all but one monster regens health back.

Weapon swap between staff and scythe while balling them up.

Don't need to keep Shroud of Distress on while you've got Critical Agility, but remember to reapply when not attacking.

Spam AoHM and Mystic Sweep.

Enjoy

interesting build =) I will try it out. Although i hate balling up monsters there cuz there is so little space to move around and might aggro something you dont want to. Also, it might take a long time to get it right as there is always that one horsemen and dryad just not attacking you until you kill a horsemen/dryad respectively.

Hey Spider of the UW. I did some runs with your build and I think you can do the run a bit faster by swapping Golden Lotus Strike out for Black Mantis Thrust.

You don't really need the energy if you time things correctly and BMT has a faster activation time and lower recharge time which allows you to add just a little more DPS.

Another skill I was trying out was subbing GLS for Critical Eye. I find Critical Agility expiring too soon some times by lack of critical hits. It also allows you to deal dmg above the the dmg limit more often with crits with the help of the attack buffs (EBSoH & AS). I haven't done any dmg calculations but it makes the build even easier. Just cast buffs and auto attack.

Tell me what you think.

BMT i will try that. Yah and I also noticed that when I crit I also get "max" damage ( 26 + 75%) so i tried putting in critical eye instead of GLS and it works just as fast although I cannot maintain CE up all the time cuz Crit was level 12. it only last 27 seconds.

Hey, I noticed this build a few days ago and I thought I would screw around with my own version of it. Initially I kept it exactly the same as yours but then a guildie (Celestial Outbreak) and I started really modding it out

Currently him and I get times of about 1-2 minutes depending on luck. The biggest problem with your initial build was the downtime from "casting", so we focused on just pushing up the attack cap.

By using:
[build prof=A/Mo smi=5 dag=9 sha=12 cri=8][Deadly Paradox][Shadow Form][Critical Agility]["By Ural's Hammer!"][Asuran Scan][Critical Eye][Death's Charge][Strength of Honor][/build]

+3 runes of shadow, +3 daggers and +3 crit strikes and a sup vig. Also a perfect vamp mod as well as guided by fate inscription and boom. A whole lot of above the threshhold damage

Always cast Urals before Asuran scan and you will average 47-50 damage per attack. Try it out and let me know what you think

Quickest time so far was about 1:10 seconds

EDIT: Meh, GWBBcode aint working, heres the bar:

OwNk4Ud5HPiEPiOTNYq4bp+Duz8A

Very nice =) hehe i have though about rune-ing up too but was lazy haha. I like how strenght and honor kinda replaces EVSoH. although BUH recharge time does kinda take a little long. but still really nice. With out your runes ( I have +3 shadow +1 crit ) still only took 2 mins in HM which means it is just as fast as NM with the A/ME build. Very nice, Great job! =)

Lady Tristan · May 29, 2010, 01:52 PM // 13:52

Well with a low deldri title, it would kill one with BUH! kill one without. If however you are pro (I am not, yet ;D) You can use the vamp and the timing in which you cast critical agility to keep your HP below 50% and get BUH! to last twice as long and get +20% damage from inscription.

As I said I haven't spent enough time trying to get that right but I am sure someone can do that easily and get the time even lower

Thanks for the response ^^ Good Farming!

Zolderick · May 29, 2010, 04:17 PM // 16:17

Good job Lady Tristan, I had a go with your build and it works beautifully. Thanks for posting it.

Spider of the UW · Jun 14, 2010, 10:36 PM // 22:36
