Default Feather farming HM build help

I have toyed with a build enough and made a build for farming the the things out of sietung harbor (sorry in advance if I miss spell) in Jaya. I am using ["Signet of Spirits"][Bloodsong][Vampirism][Armor of Unfeeling][Spiritleech Aura] [Resilent Weapon][Mend Body and Soul][Summon Spirits]. I also have to use insignias that give me 15 armor when under a weapon spell. I guess this build kinda works but it involves alot of running and teleporting spirits and it takes a long time. I really wanna improve this but I am out of ideas for higher damage. The hardest part is the assassin some times attack me and that isn't to lovely. Like I said I wanna add damage so I can kill faster cuz I got 1 stack of feathers from 3/4 of the run. Took about 45minutes-1hour though. There are touch skills, wail of doom (doesn't seem to threatening), and I guess crippling dagger. Thanks for help and/or feed back.

To reiterate, there is no point in gathering 3/4's feather stacks in HM when you can get much more in NM in that space of time. If the primary aim is to gather more feathers, then use Rt/Me with VwK with Physical Resistance and max armor with all Herald Insigs. Just using VwK is sufficient to kill without even requiring any heals at all. They just die and for Yetis add Renewing Surge or EVAS. Kill the Long Haired ones first as they self heals. The value in NM is getting the occasional drops of minor vigor runes, survivor/radiant insigs and rare dyes and runes of high value. Why the need for HM and make your farming more difficult? For Rits who want to farm in HM for feathers, you get more out of North Kryta against Caromis using the Rt/R Spirit Spam builds. IMO Seitung Harbor delivers more feathers in a given time than any other places.

That's really not a huge amount of feathers...lots of other junk, but when I feather farm I only go for the feathers and then armor drops that have runes on them. And I tend to get far more of both, in a single run, just using a standard Spirit Spam build in Jaya Bluffs.

Unless that run took you about 10 minutes, in which case I'd say nice job, but otherwise, yeah.
