Hi guys,

I need some advice on the following thing...
The only farm i know, and a bit good at it. Is the raptor farm in riven earth outside rata sum.

I use the following build:

* Glyph of Swiftness
* Deadly Paradox
* Shadow Form
* Glyph of Lesser Energy
* Intensity
* Sliver Armor
* Death's Charge
* Shadow Refuge

With this build i can clear the cave AND the Rekoff Broodmother.
The following question is where can I use this build also... other areas.
(if you feel like to change skills... feel free)
Another question is what would be the best build to use in the uw? Should i use elementalist skills? or skills where i need to use daggers.

Well I hope I didn't do anything wrong in this treath like the last time xD

That build can be used to farm like..everywhere without PointBlankArea-of-Effect skills and touch skills i think. And something along those lines is also in UW, just changed and a few others skills. I'd suggest you to go pvxwiki.com get yourself a UWSC guild, go youtube and learn that part of UWSC. And go ToA and try to uwsc

You can farm topk (tomes of primeval kings) for ectos just use by urals hammer and ebon vangard battle ward (<cant spell it >.<)in place of deaths charge and shadow refuge

Ok this is an honest reply and is what i do

On your travels thru gw you may have noticed places that seem perma friendly - take the sin and see what you can do.
If you ask ppl then you may get multiple answers but ... its down to how capable you are that matters.
Not all sins do UQSC - my sins never done it.
But i prefer finding places that i can farm and by trying and varying the build i gain exp an knollege of that area.
Being told you can farm somewhere dont always mean you can.
Places ive perma sf - well some
Djarin Estate (nf) all 6 bosses can be solo farmed
Caromi outside LA
Ice imps and elementals outside olafstead
Secret lair of snowmen
Witmans folly - mainly the warriors an grawl bosses - the necros are evil as you cant use any conditions as they send it back at you.
Naga on shing jea island.
Thats just to name a few but its more rewarding to try places personally ( and saves the arguements on which place is best to farm outside of uwsc/fowsc etc )
You could also use the sin as a runner and make some income from that.

Suggestion - drop intensity and use ebon battle standard of honor , drop deaths charge and use By Urals Hammer - if farming raptors replace the last skill with air of superiority.
intensity tho usefull is a waste with its recharge time
eboh plus buh will easily improve the dmg more
aos i find better for raptors than havin a heal - apart from the heal and condition removal you can get it gives the instant recharge chance which can be more usefull.
If you die then its easy enough to res and go back in.

Soz if i sounded bitchy but its how i learned the places i farm and i did state its what i do and being honest - meant to be constructive rather than nasty.

Bird farm out side LA

drop Death's Charge* Shadow Refuge

And take Ebon Battle Standard of Honor and radiation filed or (vipers defenses)

No need to heal you should be perma the whole time

Drop Death's charge at least, you don't need it. I use Shadow Refuge vs Raptors because Broodmother likes to spam Twisting Fangs. Shadow Refuge is enough to negate this, and then add in Ebon Battle Standard for woamg damage.

Actually, the other way around, IMO.

Death's Charge on Broodmother so you are much more likely to target her first with all of the damage. She goes down quick.

that way, you don't even have to worry about healing

I dont use the farm much, so I wasn't aware that this targeted Broodmother first. Thats really handy though ha, cheers for that.
