Well if you mean farm raptors for drops, good luck with your sin, if you are farming for reputation, I advise that you just get a elementalist to leech off of.

Ugh... My only elementalist right now is a E/R stuck in prophecies. Unless I'm mistaken, I have to do all those Crystal Desert quests in order to get my attribute point bonuses. It might be easier to start a E/Me from scratch on Nightfall. I could get her run up to Gunnars Hold and just knock out a bunch of Norn Boxing dungeon runs.

What times are you getting on that build?

I couldn't get the build below 4 - 5 minutes.

Try this one:
[build;OwZTkY/8ZS6jHRnBZIXkHCu0tEA]

Does it in 2 minutes but half damage can make the boss raptor interesting.

checked my time (Hard Mode, Boss killed, 25raptors for bonus)

1 minute on GW clock <so below 2 minutes for sure> (around 1:30)



plus I like to use Grasping Earth & You move like a dwarf (mainly for 2sec knockdown) so that Broodmother never runs away from me

<note: to get bonus for 25 kills you have to recast sliver for the third time but its still below 2 minutes>

I also checked the Intensity version (Im rank 7 sunspear, so the damage from Sliver is 21 [18 on glyph of elemental power])

Im max vanguard, and my assasin has 71 energy [asura rank 7 for Edification]

no need for choke point

Grasping Earth & You move like a dwarf do the trick

I just usually stand near the rock when I start casting

one more obvious tip:

when you are running to the cave after you got the asuran bounty, near the cave press and hold ctrl and target the Broodmother so you dont have to do it during the fight
