i used to get a lot of necro tomes from skales outside astralarium (zehlon reach) when farming for colossals

also the skales in kryta outside LA...

so pretty much lots of skales = necro tomes

Any suggestions about (normal) Para tomes? As far as i remember, there aren't any place with many paragons at same time, at least when it comes to storyline in NF and EotN. But i can remember wrong too.

Maybe there is a spot i've missed? Also, would be nice if the farm can be done with Monk, Warrior or Ranger (i prefer the first one though).

Thanks!

Just outside of Eye of North is 2 groups of... i think 4 (total 8 or something) Dervishes.

Fahranur, The First City. From Jokanur Diggings. Just before the undead area is big group of something like 20-30 skales and about half of them are dervishes.

where is the best place for normal ele tomes excluding EotN?

as for Para tomes, the insects in the Plains of Jarin are a mix of paragons and warriors, there's also a paragon boss there surrounded by some para insects.

dervish tomes are easy, skales anywhere in istan and perhaps kourna too...

I've begun running CoF over the last few days, and done maybe 6-8 runs. from those runs i've had 2 rit tomes 2 derv tomes and an elite mesmer tome drop for me. Maybe i was just lucky though.

Also for ele tomes, there is a group of elementalists and a ele boss outside SS great hall, i think the boss' name is sunneh stormbringer or something like that. i've had decent luck there.

Tusked howlers and hunters are paragons; you will find a couple of groups in Arkjok Ward right outside Yohlon Haven.

As for normal ele tomes, I'd try flash gargoyles anywhere in Ascalon (noticeably outside Nolani), hydras in Skyward Reach and sand drakes in Diviner's Ascent.

Ritualist Tomes - Naga in Sunqua Vale or in Panjang Peninsula.
Necro Tomes - Farming Behemoths in Vehjin Mines (along with Derv Boss)

Well if you use 330hp Rt/Mo, you will find alot of these areas easy and quick to farm, along with being able to kill some bosses along the way with Pain Inverter. I have a big list of alot of places to farm on my guide. I've got tones of tomes from using 330hp myself...

There are loads of builds for most of the professions. I really can't say which is the "most efficient". But a Necro or Monk (55hp Spoil Victor) or 330hp Rit should be able to handle all of these opponents pretty well.

Byzzr Wingmender with a 55 Spoil Victor Necro.

Hide behind the rock, hit him with SV and something like Dark Pact, use Prot Spirit and Breeze when he dies, then Necrotic Traversal or Consume Corpse to pick up the loot. The prots are for the spawns that popup when you teleport.

Imo would be better to just go outside the Eye of the North for derv monsters. Wisps there can be soloed with 105/330 ritualist very easily.
