Curse

In line with the other threads on raptor farming, I thought I'd share this idea bubble I had half an hour ago and am in the process of testing. Since MoR was nerfed, E/Me'ing the nestlings has gotten a bit more challenging. Looking at the 'prevent interruption skills' page I saw Tranquil was Tanasen and was interesting in trying to make a build with it.

First I used it with Stoneflesh Aura and Armor of Earth, but then I tried it with just Stoneflesh Aura. And it seems there is no need for Armor of Earth with the armor boost from TwT!

At 12 restoration, TwT can be kept up constantly with Glyph of Swiftness. Since you're losing the enchant mod because of the item spell, Stoneflesh Aura also needs to be kept up with Glyph of Swiftness.

The build I'm currently testing: OghjgMJcITrlSffVROwl8QoCpCA

Earth Magic 12+3+1
Air Magic 3+1
Energy Storage 0+1
Restoration Magic 12

Mindbender
Glyph of Swiftness
Stoneflesh Aura
Tranquil was Tanasen
Air of Superiority
Sliver Armor
Magnetic Aura
Earth Attunement

Earth Attunement is there for some energy management, since you lose Channeling. Magnetic Aura (perhaps Mental Block works too) is needed against Rekoff: TwT gives less armor than Armor of Earth and she packs a punch.

Edit: downside is you can't wand runners.
Edit2: Grasping Earth instead of Earth Attunement helps with the runners, but energy really is a problem, even if you have 15 earth and 6 energy storage.
Edit3: MoR has been restored to its former glory and this build is redundant.
