The way i do it is like this:
1. wait for (almost) full regen
2. target a mesmer
3. cast PS, HB, VS
4. cast SS and IP on the mesmer
5. As soon as you notice your VS is stripped, recast PS, HB, VS (always in this order, so VS works as a cover for your vital enchantements)

Normally the mesmer should go down before his shatter enchantement has recharged. If not, prepare to reapeat step 5

Ahh! I see, I wasn't using SS or IP on the mesmer, this helped a lot, thanks!

would appreciate if someone could tell me that, considering that information is not given in the guide.

Start: North Kryta Province (Leave from LA). Don't forgot to take the quest: Defend North Kryta Province otherwise the Titans will not spawn.
You can take every path you want, there are enough Titans all over the place.
I think a full run takes about 30-40 minutes

Ok last question

Previously someone said to farm Nolani Academy.... anyone else farm there? Are you farming in the Mission or the Explorable area outside of Nolani? And kind of build are you using?

Cause I've tried farming both with a 55 Mo/N, Mo/Me, Mo/D and W/Rit.... and got pwned.

Mo/D

1. Prot Spirit
2. Shield of Absorption
3. Shielding Hands
4. Shield of Judgment
5. Fleeting Stability
6. Holy Strike
7. Blessed Aura
8. Balthazar's Spirit

There you go!

Take an enchanting 20% Scyhte, start attacking them so they won't run away and use Holy Strike when your target is knocked down

nope stonesoul will do the trick...speeds up things a whole bunch plus you can take the occasional bosses that spawn for elite tomes. just take out essence and only keep bal spirit for energy.

thanks for the reply, it's a great guide!
if someone could tell me how much gold they make / run after selling everything to the merchant, i'd be thankful.
i need the numbers to compare with my current farming spots and see if the amount of gold earned / minute is greater or less.

The run takes me around 30min with swamp and all and i get around 4k just from merching, usually 1-2golds and 1-3 ele tomes.

Don't forget the usual Mo/D build can HM Vermin Farm too.... not sure how the drops are now-a-days

I didn't read the whole thread so forgive me if this has been pointed out but what about the Eles? I do 1, 2, 3, and during 4 I get hosed. I'm guessing it's the eles, but it's hard to tell. I'm at a loss I're tried about 3-4 times and it
s the same every time, I am casting SS and IP and my health chuncks down very quickly and I die. I'm at a loss....

Witte Was · Jun 15, 2007, 10:13 PM // 22:13

Hm..you should just spam the crap out of your enchantments. (Divine Favor) or are you N/Mo?

ForgeWhelp · Jun 15, 2007, 10:15 PM // 22:15

Yeah Necro. Is that my great failing?

Witte Was · Jun 15, 2007, 10:21 PM // 22:21

I think so, you don't get the extra healing from Divine favor..I'm almost sure you need that..

So what's the best/fastest campaign to get a monk up to 20? As I have nothing better to do then farm, I can go ahead and work up a monk for better farming....

Fuzzy Taco · Jun 15, 2007, 10:42 PM // 22:42

If you're going Necro primary, Spirit Bond > Vig spirit for FoW. Witte is right, for his build w/o divine favor healing in Hard you're screwed. SB works as a (kinda) cover enchant, but it is my favorite secondary healing skill when PS + HB is not enough.

leveling in factions is like picking an apple from a tree. it's fast, easy & fun. i usually level up my character to around 15 in 2 hours, so 20 shouldn't take more than 1 day if you're really into it.

thx jason for your info on the titan farming, too.

Prophecies or Factions. A guide for Prophecies can be find here and for Factions here
both are great for fast experience. (If you want to do the prophecies one, start in Factions or Nightfall and go to Lions Arch, get a run to Sanctum Cay, Run Sanctum Cay and than run to The Thirsty River!)

Arnack · Jun 17, 2007, 02:08 AM // 02:08

Hey Witte Was, I'm farming titans and that Maelstorm easily interrupts my skills, is there anyway to counter this?

Zeek Aran · Jun 17, 2007, 02:11 AM // 02:11

Arnack... walk out of it.

EDIT/REPLY: XD That's okay, I just thought you were lazy.

Arnack · Jun 17, 2007, 02:19 AM // 02:19

oh lol i didn't realize it was a AoE skill
