Since Hanego seems to really be gone for good, is there some way for one of the other regular contributors to be given control of the thread? Or would a new thread have to be started, cutting and pasting all the mini-guides and links?

The editted OP with the links to relevant information throughout the thread is very helpful and I would like to see it kept up, as this is one the most useful and fun discussions I've ever taken part in regarding GW.

Try casting life siphon on him while pulling him. Then run to the bridge where u stand just around the corner, so the spirit attacks and he himself cant hit you. From there just wait for the opportune moment and finish him off when the possibility is there, be sure to keep up dodge/zojuns to dodge missiles.

@ job ox, most of it is there already, but I fear the newer bosses will have to be added when nightfall comes online, perhaps we best make a second thread then. As of now, just keep contributing, if ppl are interested they will read the last few pages too.

Hey all farmers..
Read this thread and went curious on how I should be able to keep up with something like this so i had to try with my Edorina. Mostly because i really wanted Ghials Staff for my necro and heard from people that it should be so hard to farm.

Well, started out with capturing OoB and then buying some necroskills that i did not have. Started the run and god damn what i died (like 10 times in a row) at the start. Ive been running a lot with my Warrior and basicly its just the Droks run that i havnet bothered to learn, and i solo FoW-forest easy so my mood went lower and lower. But, I told myself.. can other do it then so can you.

Went on and after a while i got to Ghial w/o problem. You improve all the time and now the day after my start as toucher i go to Ghial w/o problem. Killed him 10 times or so but no staff so i thought, hey try Whispering instead. I tried both from Unwakening and Seafarer and for me the later is easist. I go to him in under a minute, lure him back and kill him

And more importantly, on the third death he dropped my first green as toucher *weee*

Well, except for a loooooong reply I most wanted to say THX !!! for this awesome thread....

About Jayne Forestlight:
This boss's only healing comes from reversal of fortune (said in an older post). This spell shouldn't work on vampiric skills because health stealing isn't damage. I only started to farm this boss recently but it looks as if RoF also reverses the vampiric bite/touch though. Still easy boss if you can pull him out.

I started farming the Whispering Ritual Lord as Touch Ranger and i thought that i invented the method myself. To my big surprise i found this post and huge thread So i only reinvented the method. Anyway lot of very good info here that helped me a lot doing other bosses in.

I wanna give something in return. A skill that i often use in combination with throw dirt is serpent's quickness. At least for some bosses it is a good option. A normal TR does 65dps, with SQ this will be +/- 97dps for the duration of SQ. The good thing about this skills, not only does it fasten the recharge rate of vampiric touch/bite but also OoB gets a recharge boost. Where lightning reflexes causes you to deplete your energy faster, QS gives a higher and balanced life stealing time frame. With wilderness survival at 4 it lasts 19 secs enough for 3 OoB if timed right.

Wow, this thread is still going, a testament to the joy and financial security it has given it readers...

Zegorzalek, easy way to take out Brightclaw is to distract the spirit as he casts it, the self-heal spells he uses have zero effect if there is not a rit spirit in range to support them. You can kill him very quickly after you have distracted the spirit.

I havent taken my toucher to Elona, but have loved farming with it in Cntha- just wondering if anyone had had any luck in Elona with possible farming spots?

Well now you can simply clear a mob out then tell the hench to effectively take a hike afterwards pretty much any boss without stupidly high damage output or damage negation could be touch ranger farmed.

new farming technique, since nightfall release with the flagging system. Kill the mob around the boss, flag them away. Solo kill the boss.

Henchman Affect the droprate but how? only when they are in the area or as long as they are in your party? Never figured that one...but I do know members in party affect droprates.

o thats cool

but i have other quest.

since druids has a "built-in" insignia, it can carry like runes.

but in ancient u have to put in insignia to make it like druids.. but can u still put a rune in it with energy insignia? cause then if u cant then druid has advantage?

sorry i dont know these little things. thx. though for other help

With ancient armour, you can add an insignia and a rune. WHereas Druid's Armour, you can only add a rune, because, as you said, Druid's has a "built in"insignia. To get your energy up, add some radiant insignias.
