Really, why not do a /search of the forums, and place the links on your first post in this thread. Just link - no need to re-copy the identical infos.

I don't understand why we should create a redundant post, when all the information already exists in other threads.

However, I do think it would be nice to have a thread with links to all of them - saves time doing /search for already-existing material.

I know there's already a stickied farming thread, but it's very outdated and incomplete...

Do realize, that a lot of farm builds are posted in the war/rit/monk/rang/etc areas...

I don't know about you, but I find this thread pretty helpful. I can't even find topics when I search the fourm.

Tanned Hide Squares

Start at Grendich Courthouse

Load a spirit spammer build and walk outside, kill the 2 charr mobs outside to the right and collect any charr hide they have dropped, salvage it and you get some hide. (also carvings for wood)

How do you do that?

I think I spotted a mistake, or I'm just a retard.

Assassin - Raptors east of Rata Sum. You can use a Obsid Flesh Silver Tank, a silver perma, or my favorite a W/N farmer. [W/N is fastest and best]. Time for each zone: Obsid Flesh Silver Tank & Silver Perma are about 3 min. A W/N is less than a minute.

Why would one use Obsidian Flesh to farm melee enemies? Just throwing that out there.

perhaps you should give a way to farm reputation points for each class? since its not account wide.

Once you have completed EotN, all professions can farm Rep Points by filling in HM Hero's Handbooks. Each new book will have 5 entries already filled in. Fill in 3 more entries and you can trade in the book for 3K of whichever reputation you want. Choose the three missions that are fastest to complete. You don't need specific farming builds, just any decent H/H teams.

Fastest missions for me:

Curse of the Nornbear: Once you know where the Nornbear spawns, you only have to run directly to those spots. Charge! or Fall back! are nice. Very quick, very easy.

G.O.L.E.M: If you want to follow the regular mission pattern, the 3 Sabs heroes can hold one kiln, while you and the henchies defend the other. Otherwise you can avoid the NPCs at the start, and run around killing the nearby Destroyers. Then flag team at the choke point at the top of the hill, while you trigger/collect the golems. Don't move down to where the Bringers of Destruction spawn until you have the golems or the mission may bug up and become uncompletable. Wear your Deldrimor title.

A Time for Heroes:
This one is the fastest to do. Use whatever team works for you. I can play two accounts at once (ie. 6 heroes), so I use Pain Inverter, a gang of touch rangers, and a couple of healers. Wear your Deldrimor title.

It's more efficient to do each mission multiple times, each time with a different book in your inventory. Otherwise you waste time continuously changing your team setup.

Also, a really easy way for any profession to reach Rank8 Vanguard, is to do the Special Ops missions (use encrypted charr battle plans). Each mission is dead easy, takes about 5-10 minutes, and gives 1000 Vanguard points every time. But of course you have to save up those Battle Plans, or trade for them.

Mm. I use Mist Form and Sliver on my ele. It takes 1.5 minutes total, including rezoning.

And since it kills the boss (actually it RELIES on killing the boss, to recharge Mist Form, Sliver Armor etc)... it's also a place to farm Elite Assassin tomes.

You can solo farm the Sensali in Jaya Bluffs normal mode for feathers. Solo VwK builds work. Solo Spirit Spammers work although I find them slower. Run out of Seitung Harbor and run round the north and west areas killing all groups of Sensali. I typically get about 80 feathers in 10 minutes (assuming running skills or cupcakes), but others report over 100 feathers/run. Not usually worth picking up weapon drops unless they're gold, but pick up blue armors and you can salvage a lot of valuable minor runes.

Ummm ... I can try to put up some builds for all professions but the ones that do it the best are assassins, mesmers, eles, and monks but Im sure we can get others too

Feathers;

Derv/Monk Jaya Farmer - OgOjkOrMLTuXyDlXsXZXaX8X9gA

Enter Jaya Bluffs, put up Faithful Intervention and Balthazar's Spirit and then Avatar of Balthazar, aggro the groups of Sensali, hit Mystic Regeneration and once the darkfeathers have balled on you use Dust Cloak -> Staggering Force -> Mystic Sandstorm -> Eternal Aura and they will all be dead, make sure to recast Faithful Intervention and Balthazar's Spirit after every group and maintain Avatar of Balthazar. 1 run usually gets me about 80 feathers after salvaging the crests, which is a pretty low amount compared to other classes, but a run is 11 minutes everytime, which is about 5 runs per hour including time to sell runes/salvage crests and sell junk to the Merchant in Seitung. For the gear - Any max armour works with Radiant/Attunement and a Superior Earth Prayers rune on the hood, weapon isn't important as you will never be attacking, only using skills.

Ebon Vanguard reputation farming
Farming ebon vanguard points can be done similiarly like farming norn points. In Sacnoth Valley there are 3-4 charr bosses. Some of them spawn only after completing Assault of the stronghold, however. They can be found at the same spot where you have to free the ebon vanguard patrol during said mission. Simply kill 250 foes and save the 4 bosses for last, or any other boss you left. If you get lucky with the bonusses(boss bounty yields +300 extra points, rampage bounty doubles it), you can get approximately 1200-5000 points for killing all 4 bosses, and any others you left in the area.

In short, approximately 4000-6000 points can be made each run. Varies alot depending on bonusses. I usually vanquished the entire area for an additional 2000 points.

Hope this helps.
