Read notes. You can only activate OF when QZ is up.

Unless you are somewhat experienced with DoA, I don't think this is the farm for you. :P

Aggro at a diffrent time. I've been having this myself, and one of the solutions to that is simply to wait with casting OF until QZ is just about to run out. Then aggro.

very nice build.
about the obsidian flesh problem, try using glyph of swiftness (about 4 in magic needed).
I'll try the build I've used to farm destroyer cores and put in I am unstoppable, I'll report later what happens.

Edit:
I like the first build a lot, do they ever drop gems?
About glyph of swiftness/ destroyer fam build, I couldn't keep up with healing in the end.

Where exactly would you be able to put in GoS?
Also, they do drop, but they are rare. I've gotten 30 far and thats over ~2 weeks.

I was also having problems with Obsidian flesh, and I remembered the build I was using in GWEN I thought I could incorporate it, but I was mistaken. Your buuild works just fine.

I was only killing the first two mobs, but today I was able to go further and those got me a couple of Margo gems, a black dye and loads of gold items (I did quite a few runs though.)

Do you think you can solo the end bosses of this quest if you manage to go that far? But maybe it is not worth the while cause the greenies dont fetch that much and the chest is not worth it. (And it will take a long time.)

Thnx again for the build.

Good for you I usually only kill the first 3 mobs then restart.

With the original build I highly doubt that this is possible (when all the rangers are down you cant have that infinite OF). Since you have to clear each and every margonite, this would take a crapload of time. It could be possible with a GoS build. I'll have a look into this.

I think Metalmaster was just pointing out that you used the wrong name for Ancestor's Visage (which as you say is a Factions dupe of Sympathetic Visage). I'm sure we all realized that you were using the right skill in your build, but Ancestor's Rage is a rit skill.

I'll also add my thanks for the builds.

tried it, it works but im not too happy about the run. Time and difficulty for the low frequency of good drops is not very good. Mind i've only tried it for less than hour, but I spent like a good 4 hours getting it set up. The norn skill and level really took some time. I'm still gona be testing this out, but this is my initial impression.

I tend to think that most solo farms arent worth the time and effort. Especially in doa when all golds are crap, gems drop as often as a r7 crystalline and are worth less than a paper towel. /sarcasm

Yes, you did a great job just pointing out that there are way better stuffs to do to earn cash :P

I agree, but these days, loads of people want their fancy Armbraces, and this is a good option for those who's got spare time and no cash.
After a while the farm gets really relaxing, :P
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE: Tried to complete City without success today. Since you have to kill every margonite just to get into the fortress, the energy wont allow you (too few enemies attacking in the end). It is possible that I'm just not capable of doing this, thus I need some testers. Replace AoR with GoS and see how far you can go, post back results/screenshots.
Appreciated.

Make sure you have you anti KD up ALL THE TIME. Besides Knockdown, there are no interrupts in this area.
