And that will be good to know, what weapon is using this farm build creator.

Desires has created and shared one of the best boss solo'ing builds out there, I really don't think it's asking too much for you to do a little reading.

Can someone try it? maybe it's going to be better way to kill bosses cuz u always target one target.

About A/e :

What guys you have if ur shadow form is for 25 sec and Silver armor for 15+ ? Mine skills at lvl 15 shadow arts work only for : shadow form - 20 sec, silver armor - 10 sec.

How do you intend to make Backfire/Empathy do more than 20-35 x 10-30 each second? Nothing will do more damage to a single target than Sliver Armour will.

When your Sliver Armour has worn off and your boss is still alive.... use your imagination, why exactly would you NOT try and run off?

+5e +20% enchantment AXE or SWORD. Daggers you lose your focus, just buy a Totem Axe for 5k and use that.
+5e/+30hp +20% enchantment staff. AI reacts differently to your weapon set, remember that.

Why would you do that you have to pull the mesmer contruct to help[/sarcasm].

For whoever didn't want to read through all those pages its about the same 5 questions being reasked through each of those pages so you should only need to read a few of them... I don't intend in the near future to make a hand holding guide through this as I would like to think people would be able to solve the small things themselves or just take the time to read a few pages of this topic.

You're right Desires. I'm quite amazed by the repetition of similar questions in this thread.. People seem so reluctant to do their own research and just want things handed to them on a plate.. *sigh*

I had a little go at this a while back, after a Guildie posted it, and wasn't very successful. I went back to other goals I had for my characters, keeping this at the back of my mind as something I hoped I'd be able to do one day, but being doubtful of it.

I decided to try it again the other day and put more effort in. I started with the supposed 'easiest' boss, the Scar Eater, and couldn't kill him.. Naturally I assumed I wouldn't get the hang of this, since I couldn't manage even the 'easiest' one. I wandered off and found Jayne and assassinated her straight away. Wow, chuffed or what!

Next I had a go at Woe Spreader since I remembered getting his staff one day with hench. He too was a breeze.
Returned to Scar Eater.. failed.
Thought I'd see what Sunreach was like. Dunno about 'Warmaker'.. he didn't put up much of a fight hehe.

Anyway, I still think I'm not very good at this, but I've taken out Sessk, Sarss, Jayne, Jin, Sunreach, and Ssyn so far, so I can't be that bad.. odd though how I still can't manage the 'easiest' one LoL!

Great work Desires. Good of you to share it with everyone; and there's no way you should have to spoon feed people who can't be bothered to put some effort into finding out for themselves. I do wish the vids. were better quality, since I can barely tell what's going on in them, but now that I kinda have an idea what I'm doing, it'd be more out of interest and improvement than a desperate need to see what the heck you're doing to make it work!

Any tips on farming Jayne whenever I run in Sliver targets a Warden of the Tree and not the boss, do I have to aggro another group?

Evilsod · Oct 09, 2006, 12:57 AM // 00:57

Your about the 50th person to ask that question... if we knew how to make Sliver Armour target bosses we'd be hailed as kings... sadly WE DONT!

Farming Jayne is pointless anyway... Either you get the worthless staff or the valuable Vera. The problem is... the droprate of Vera is practically non-existant. Its quicker to just kill the Scar Eater 30+ times with 60second runs, sell it and buy the Vera.

Wonder if this build can farm Kepkhets Refuge...

Been as the queen refuses to move from a stack of traps.... no.

Vodkaman · Oct 09, 2006, 01:57 AM // 01:57

honnaja, about scar eater, from my experiments ive found that if u aggro the onis that spawn on that location, u get a lot better chances of killing him, onis attack fast and power up sliver armor

Guess im a lucky Sin then cuz i got 6 Vera's and only 1 Shity Staff

On the other hand... Still no Dom Staff after mayb 40 kills, argh!

sellas · Oct 09, 2006, 03:02 AM // 03:02

Is there a difference in using a Totem Axe Vs Kephket refuge? I mean, melee weapon vs staff would influence something?

chicks boy · Oct 09, 2006, 12:19 PM // 12:19

nice! whoever made dis build is a good man!
u made me rich man! XD, 360k in 3 days wowowowowowwowo

DRGN · Oct 09, 2006, 01:47 PM // 13:47

AWESOME build, Desires. Tried it this morning and managed to kill Sunreach and got his shield. ^^ It took a bit to get the hang of, but that's how most farm builds are when they require you to think. XD And yes, it was an E/A, so whoever can't kill Sunreach with an E/A needs to just practice more. I notice it worked best if I ran in and died intentionally once so that I could pull the wardens that usually block your way(None Shal Pass! + brambeles + Lacerate ftl). That way when I went back the second time, I had a clear shot to shadow step to Sunreach and whack him. I used Rust, which helped a lot on his Healing Signet.

Probably try the Constructs later when I get time. I had tried something like this for my Mo/E with Spell Breaker +S Sliver but never could get it to work. Great job!

Firstly:
Top marks Desires, a truly sneaky build in the best traditions of assassination.

Secondly:
To people wanting it spoon fed, try to work it out yourself! Assassins are tricky to use but once you get the hang of it they work really well. This build is no exception. Spend a few hours and figure it out.

Thirdly:
I'm having problems getting to the War construct with enough time left to hurt him, only got him once. Do you guys use Death's Charge to get to him quickly? I don't have it in my build and I'm not sure what I'd chuck out to get it in there... Maybe Shadow's Refuge but I like that because it lets you withstand the Shiroken Ele's really well.
Oh and I'm also having problems killing the Monk, even with both groups there. I guess only having Aftershock as extra damage isn't enough for him...

Roll on the double green weekend!

L8R,
Adam.

Totem Axe = Throw Dirt = Afflicted Rangers standing closeby, more potential targets and higher AL to Sliver Armour.
Kepkhets = Shroud of Silence = No spells = Stuffed if agroed accidently before casting Shadow Form.

You don't need to agro the Oni to kill the Scar Eater... Have you seen the size of the patrols nearby? Agro both of those, walk upto it and its dead within 5 seconds if you use Shock/Aftershock well.

Argh i keep dieing, stop making me forget Shadow of Haste is active! Other than that i've just had a record for killing the Warrior... he dropped dead in probably not much less than 6 seconds. By the time he actually got round to using Healing Signet he was already at 20% health...

White_Chaos · Oct 09, 2006, 06:35 PM // 18:35

Hmm can anyone post a Video witch shows how to kill SunReach or any other boss
or say the page where the Videos are located

Evilsod · Oct 09, 2006, 08:17 PM // 20:17

Well it had to happen eventually. The perfect run (obviously having all 5 bosses drop is a little far fetched so its as perfect as your gonna get in this lifetime).

- Apologies if i should repost as a link

Thus proving its not impossible to kill all 5 Kaolins using only Sliver Armour for damage.

Ghull Ka · Oct 09, 2006, 11:30 PM // 23:30

Desires,

Thank you for the build! I've wanted to make a collection of all the green daggers in the game for my assassin, and have been farming with various builds to accomplish this goal. Now I'm going to have my assassin go out and do her own dirty work! :-)

Gururian · Oct 10, 2006, 01:47 AM // 01:47

I <3 Desires for saving my sin... Congrats EvilSod, I had alot of trouble with ele boss.. and for you people who sound like robots asking questions repeatedly.. Save us some trouble and use your brains to read for once. Good job on the build
