so the idea for the FoW solo is when the mesmers do shatter enchantment, it shatters breeze and vigorous spirit covers the healing job until breeze recharges?

No, you put up PS and HB then Vigourous to cover, vigorous gets shattered and your vital enchants are safe.

I can't remember how far back in this thread, but someone was asking about a Rt/W build, and VwK was suggested. I believe I've found a better one:

http://pvxbuilds.com/index.php?title...Crawler_Farmer

[skill]splinter weapon[/skill][skill]cyclone axe[/skill][skill]ancestors' rage[/skill][skill]cruel was daoshen[/skill][skill]spirit rift[/skill][skill]gladiator's defense[/skill][skill]defensive stance[/skill][skill]sprint[/skill]

I think Enraging Charge was an optional swap skill to run past troublesome mobs. The videos on the PvX Wiki page are normal mode, I believe, but I've talked with Rits who have used the build in HM and say it is still useable. Obviously, this is mostly for close-up physical-damage-dealing monsters.

ahhhh. good thing i asked. So the idea is to kill the mesmer fast before shatter recharges?

EDIT: just tried this. (FoW solo) I must be doing something wrong because its going SOOOOOO slow. The monk heals the group, the shadow warriors use healing sig every 4 seconds; it mustve taken me about 20 minutes to take out one group.

maybe I should've mentioned that I wasn't in HM. Monk has only been to ToA, and I still have yet to beat hell's precipice...cba. Think that has anything to do with it?

Definately yes. HM = 33% faster attack rate so SS is triggered more. Although I'm sure its possible in NM its much faster in HM.

Dear Witte,

Great thread! Love the builds, they all work great.

Could you get into more detail about the FoW farming though? I can take out the first group of warriors/beasts/monks and the 2nd group of monks/beasts but after that I cant get the group with mesmer and eles because I get crazy degened by that group, and abysmals just knock you down. Any help would be appreciated, or that video you mentioned would be awesome.

I had the same problem a bit ago, but I figured it out. At least how I do it...

The degen shouldn't be a problem because if you keep spamming breeze and prot. spirit, you will heal yourself. Also, damage can often be avoided by stepping out of the aoe that the eles place down on you. (like FS)

As for the Abyssals, what I do is take on at a time. As soon as you aggro, cast IP, and then as you are fighting it, spam IP until finally its on him. As for SS, don't even try, it'll take too long to finish casting it and he will interupt yas.

Mesmers are still annoying me though...not sure how to deal with them, go to put on Prot. Spirit and they shatter it even tho I cast breeze right after it >.<

For the mesmers just make sure you put up prot spirit>healing breeze>vigorous spirit before you aggro them so they only shatter vigorous. When dealing with the elementalist's burning, I make sure i have vigorous spirit up and am attacking which gains me health off-setting some of the degen. I also make sure i have IP cast on one of the enemies so i gain life when they attack also (IP does life stealing damage).
