Can someone please post pictures of the known choke points? I've been having problems finding where they are using the burning speed build.

Thank you

We really don't need more attention drawn to this thread.

If you want to use tranditional methods, wall block them, there is *plenty* of walls around the area you can pull them to and wall block so they cannot run.

However, hands down the single most effective way of farming them is via bombing.

Can someone please post a picture of the choke points plz?

Even if say I ball them up then hold them on a wall or corner then use burning speed, they all simply run around me, making it take so much longer to kill them all, having to wait for them to come back since chasing them seems to result in them running more.

lol thanks Devilman

I consider myself at least a half decent farmer but that was the problem here, I cannot find a place for them to run around at.

I know there are two groops and I'm assuming that the picture above is supposed to be for the two protruding walls at the gate up north? I've tried holding them around there but once I used burning speed, they all ran away far enough and just stand there, running away more if i chace them. Even with the wall beside them.

Apparently for some reason, they seem to think: Fire = Bad

Go figure

The Sin video is a good tutorial for using walls to easily bodyblock anywhere. If there is a wall, there is a "choke point", just make sure it's on THEIR left.

Pretty fun farm at first, I usually don't go long though because after a few runs my drops go to hell.

Incredibly easy yes. Got a crapload of ToTs, Mes tomes, stones and mats this past week
But, bombing is also completely pointless to do any time other than event weekends. They just die too quickly and drop nothing.

So raptors may still be better in the long run cause you can run in whenever and at least get 'something' for your 2 min spent.

that's my point exactly. Why is it always the sin or something other than War or Ranger that gets the good skills. Our War skills are cruddy. Oh look this guy is taking no damage but the war cna not even kill a stupid scorpion cause it get s blocked. You tell me how a lvl 3 scorpion outside of ascalon can block a lvl 20 war. I say that's just stupid that a lvl 2 necro can kill this stupid scorpian and I can not kill it. Make me look stupid.

COME ON...

We want invencibility for WAR for a change.

How about a skill that lops someone's head off in one shot. lvl 3 beats a lvl 20. Well only in GW n how stupid is that

Ya from looks of it. It easy way to farm pretty much that whole area if you dont run into the Imps. thought of way to make money by doing the Summit Quest over and over if you can keep Dwarf alive. Than you can farm for Stone Summit Items.

I think when marty edited first post with a note about its efficiency bein nerfed it may have rez`d the topic which would lead to lew23 asking his question - i only saw marty`s edit as i checked first post instead of last post made.
