Actually, I've seen some Paragon FoW farming builds, but yeah, like the OP said, Monks and Necromancers are probably the biggest farmers, although the Perma SF is pretty popular right now.

Warriors pressure, Rangers hit and run, Eles nuke, Monks heal, Necros curse, Mesmers distract, Assassins kill, Ritualists support, Paragons protect, and Dervishes do whatever the hell they do.

Just pick one.

This pretty much covers it, but don't forget about [Vengeful Was Khanhei] farmers. Rits and W/Rt seem to do those best.

I'd would strongly suggest the 330 Ritualist Build,
for it's High amount of HM farming places it is by far the best farmer without switching any skills.
And maby even all around best farmer,
cause i haven't seen anything quicker and as high in survivability.

Pick all the most awesome things in the game and put them in a blender, the result is what a dervish does.

Telling them to check the farming section (which you do) is all you need to do, really. If they want to know how to farm things, there isn't a reason why they can't just read this forum themselves.

As shown by this thread, there are arguments for all professions as to which is the best for farming (except Paragon, but no one expects them to be good at soloing), so it's not just a simple answer like you're looking for. There isn't more to it then this really.

Thread Closed. PM me if you think theres need for discussion.
