Cool noobs I like to pinch their cheeks

actually I got playing again (used to farm like a madman back in the day- even after the monk bond nerf, I was still able to solo farm the UW smites for ectos)

what I liked about this game is.. there was a clean break in pve between the dingles and people who really thought about thier builds and knew how to apply them

anyways enough of that crap we know this.. anyway I needed to make some money as I had given away most of it on quitting gw.. so I read about slavers exile and the voltaic spear looked like it was a decent chest run.. I got the cry skill on my ele and battle of wisdom and looked for a pug

to my suprise I was picked up rather quick by an assassin.. we get there and he runs inside thommis, does all the work and I echo spam cry.. long story short.. I felt like a noob tick.. you know one of those guys who wishes he was a dingleberry on my ass

so anyway I get on my assassin with heros.. after a few trips I perfect a h/h farm of the chest that's not only way faster than these pugs.. but I actually feel satisfied like back in the day when I used to farm greens\deep uw\elite mission solo- yes I used to farm urgoz with my rit solo when it first came out and got alot of zodiac stuff doing it.. I never post my builds on guru anymore though- because anet used to nerf based on the builds posted here (I know it's selfish but it's true)

like when kephet came out.. I had around 7 of her refuge staffs within around a hour of her release lol selling them 'cheap' 35k pop they went like hotcakes to the gold buyers- I pop in here, post the build and anet tweaked.. yes it was like that.. so for the rest of that day I kept tweaking my own solo farm build and finally they just made her impossible to bomb solo with ints- she all of a sudden could regen faster than the damage taken lol and gayle came in my thread and asked if I could still solo her

that day I never gave out another build here.. and made lots of money doing my own farms- esp when a new green popped up

ok enough, came in here to see if anyone was doing h/h, one guy flat out called me a liar rofl but I'm used to that.. anyways- just sold it.. got a amethyst shield r9 command on one of the runs also (keeping that one though it's perfect)

Touchers. As long as you're out of range, they wont decide to come up. Their AI is worked so they dont try anything until they either shadow step to you or you are half of the aggro range. At first we tried slivering them, 1 at a time its doable but, if you catch 2 by accident you're done. GDW + EBSoH works fine, especially in NM they die quick.

@super Igor
Since you are 3maning it to Slaver's 1 of you must have completed, so hopefully 1 has GDW if not, [[I am the Strongest] works well with a high norn.

Still working on guide for Rand...
Sry to whoever I said I'd run last weekend but I didn't get a chance.

Updated guide:
Added link to PVX edition.
Added link to Youtube video :-) yes Larcen you are in it
thanks Rizbiz for spawn info.

Hey first of all I would like to say GJ! I am trying to run the builds also and I could not agree with you more, this is not for the beginning player. I play since beta and this is HARD. But after some tries I have succeeded in doing Thommis and I will try the other ones soon.

Keep up the good work!

This is a great guide. I just completed Forge 3man NM just now with a friend of mine. It took a a little longer since this was our first try and unfortunately we didnt have 2 essences but we were at the boss at that point so it was ok. So we used 2 powerstones since we kept on dieing trying to figure out a few things anyway awsome guide and i cant wait to see what the Rand build will be so i can get this dungeon in my book :P

Keep up the good work farmer and to those who helped create this guide.

Hi all, it's also possible to do Duncan Solo (just modify the tank build posted in first page by A Simple Farmer)

I'll post the build later (i have to speak about it with A Simple Farmer who find it)

I would THK TOM, DAGGER And BLACK for their help, their advices, all ....





We are still working on Rand ...

Yeah, Rand 788ish. Us 1. Give or take. Kind of like science: "It worked! Now lets find a way to repeat it consistently."

Friggin Rand, we may be dying a lot but we're still making progress on it.
@Hammy The Monk, Forge is definitely the easiest. If your Celerity runs out, you can always drop a QZ before you make the run for the safe corner.
Try and avoid the patrol in boss room when you sliver. You have plenty of firepower to kill him without.
@iguish, I'm glad the solo worked for you.

------------------------------------------------
updated builds a bit for forge,
made video for solo Duncan.
will update Duncan page when I have more time.

Rand 789, Team Us 2.9.


--Edit / Update--

Make that Team Us 3.8 :/


Oh! And the updated build I think you meant that for Selve, and I also meant to tell you that Ignite Arrows is bad idea unless someone competent is doing it. Shoot them to fast and the one being hit flees, and you run up if not careful. Nearly ate dirt last night after we discussed it yesterday.

i havnt read all of the posts yet, so i dont know if this was suggested... for Duncan or any other boss, could you possibley make have Everyone run to the farthest possible rez shrine, activate it, and then you can skip all the killing in-between.

Idk if it would be possible, but i've seen that technique used before in other SC's
