Right. Well, you can't blame anyone for revealing your build.You were the one to start this thread.

eximiis · Jan 17, 2008, 01:49 PM // 13:49

i've been soloing the Fow for longer then you think. your build is not new to gw world. its just that ppl didnt say teh build now i did. E/A can also solo almost all the FoW.

Abedeus · Jan 17, 2008, 02:09 PM // 14:09

,,Almost'' is not 100%. I think he did make a build to kill every single monster, except for quests, imo. But hey, it's possible to make a build to solo (or dual) Tombs, it's possible for FoW.

eximiis · Jan 17, 2008, 03:06 PM // 15:06

well with E/A and with a +1 upgrades from comsumable, you can kill every single foe in FoW except teh 2 big dragon and obsidian drake. The only thing is it takes around 5hours to clear. its not 100% but let's say 98,7%

E/mo with sliver to kill will take for ever to clear fow

Someone is desperate for attention and needs a hug...

Sethellington · Jan 17, 2008, 04:20 PM // 16:20

VERY interested. Write the guide.

MrSlayer · Jan 17, 2008, 04:20 PM // 16:20

Why don't you monkey-brained half-wits give the guy a break and let him post the build? Sure he maybe did this totally the wrong way, but if you ever actually want to see his build/guide, then for the love of god just learn when to shut the hell up.

bart123 · Jan 17, 2008, 04:55 PM // 16:55

^ Agreed!

There is absolutly no need to flame at a person who is trying to give us a build...
I suspect the ones flaming already know the build and don't want it to go public

gloria vander belt · Jan 17, 2008, 05:01 PM // 17:01

well i hate ele's, but if i can micro manage my ele heroe to clear fow for me i will.
so im interested and i can wait

I wanted it done right.
You just @[email protected] it up.
Ty.

I highlighted, and translated, the relevant parts above. That is why people (including me) flamed in this thread.

I don't know the build. I have never even tried to solo the FoW with my ele. I was interested in the build until I read teh first post in this thread (Exactly the same way as I was interested in the other thread that is exactly like this - don't go looking for it...I'll save you time: "I have something that I want you to lick my scrot to get...anyone interested?" "Just spit it out!" "Yeah, not if you act like that...little less talk, a little more lickin").

You know, this type disgusting power-trip wouldn't even be an issue if people didn't treat some forum goes here as if they were gods/goddesses just because they spend waaayy more time in the game than everyone else (some of them even have thought about the game a little, but that is not the point).

Post your build if you want. I for one won't be checking back (I would be interested if eximiis has more in the build that was partially posted, assuming it were posted in a different thread).

Skinny Corpse · Jan 17, 2008, 05:37 PM // 17:37

Hmmz.. this thread is going nowhere good.
Why not close it and have OP make a new one when he's ready with the guide.
This is getting out of hand and off topic.

dasullybear · Jan 17, 2008, 06:02 PM // 18:02

This will be my last post in this thread.
Mods please close this, it has gotten way out of hand.

Although I know I should just ignore you, mr LouAl, theres only 2 things I have to say:

It would appear you have a fetish with balls and licking/sucking of said balls.

It also appears that either dont read my entire posts, or just comment on fragmented peices taken out of context or the parts you can come up with a response to, id like too see you comment on everything ive said/typed.

To everyone else: Ill repeat, the build was nerfed, and ive had to come up with a way around it, the way ive found is unstable (IMO) and that is why it has taken so long, and why I want to test it so much. It is also very slow and I didnt think anyone would care to farm the FoW (Perhaps this was personal bias, I dont like the fissure that much).

I also wanted to see if there were any builds that can already farm the FoW faster, and that this one would be inferior.

And about the "entire" FoW thing: It can actually be done in the forest, its just unreasonably difficult. Also "Solo E/Mo Entire FoW (Minus the forest of the wailing lord) NM/HM" would be too long

Quote:

Anyway, I don't see why you wanna use this build. Just grab armor of earth and you will be taking 0 damage anyway

. You even free up your slot for an actually usefull secondary, instead of trying to be a 55hp monk with constant spellbreaker....

Good sir, please realise that there is alot more than the shadow army in the FoW.
You also wont be taking 0dmg with armor in HM.

It appears to me that you see yourself as some sort of TerraTank god, you are also very judgemental and critical. Maybe im wrong, but thats how you come off. Please dont flame a build you havent seen/used yet.

As I said, this will be the last post. I still need testers btw. (Another use for this thread)

I don't think you can compare that thread (I assume you are referring to the 'four horsemen' thread) to this one. That other one can really teach us something new (probably not the builds theirselves, but most likely a different strategy or the like which isn't very well known yet).

This thread on the other hand is full of fail (the reason why he first posted, plus the build itself of course). Also, really new astonishing farming builds (not just a minor skill change) are not made anymore, simply because its done before and/or on a more effective way. So even if he would post it, it's probably inferior to others (and there are alot more threads where we can say this..

).

Omgz solo fow congratulations, you are awarded ones billion dollars and infinites girlfriends !

L|S >+>+G+<+< · Jan 18, 2008, 03:19 PM // 15:19

please close this thread as it seems to be nothing more than a flame war.

to the op, if you're going to post a guide then post it, if not then dont bother please.

My 2 centd

helloworld · Jan 18, 2008, 05:48 PM // 17:48

too much publicity for nothing

CE Devilman · Jan 18, 2008, 05:56 PM // 17:56

oh no here comes the ferocious bunny!!!

kobey · Jan 18, 2008, 07:39 PM // 19:39

If I have a killer farming build, I will have 2 options:

1) Farm farm farm farm farm till my storage can't hold anymore and then reveal the secret

2) Reveal the secret and be loved by everyone

But, creating a thread saying you have a build but "is still writing it" isn't really a smart option. Untill you post it, its as good as " I have a killer farm build, but I am not gonna tell you"

And for the record, I have no interest in using the build to farm, just commenting :P

Mr Emu · Jan 18, 2008, 11:19 PM // 23:19

so are we ever going to actually see this guide you were talking about?

The same day I was planning on posting a guide, the game fixed this bug. What problems does this cause? Simple. If you cast stoneflesh before PS, it does (example: 100dmg) 100-33=77. reducing 77 to 10% of max health, leaving you taking dmg = to 10% of your max hp. So prot spirit must be cast before stoneflesh - reduce to 33dmg (if your max hp is 330), -33 (from stoneflesh) = 0 dmg.

The problem occurs is that, prot spirit must always be cast before stoneflesh. So after the first casting of stone is about to run out, you must cast PS before going to recast stoneflesh. This puts prot spirit AFTER stone on your effects bar, leaving to happen durring the re-cast of stoneflesh (2 seconds).

Since then ive been working a way around this, and in the last day found such an answer (reducing to 55 and simply 55'ing for 2 secs works, but it means you have to split into healing prayers to bring regen, and takes another skill slot, so I avoided this) and it has been working lately, but is diffucult to manage and I wanted it thoroughly tested before making a guide.

Honestly, this thread is premium quality comedy !

It took me a grand total of 5 (ok, maybe 6) seconds to think of the most obvious solution for your problem :

[skill]shielding hands[/skill]

say hello to shielding hands : 1/4s cast, and will keep you nicely damage free while you recast stoneflesh aura. At 8 protection it'll reduce the damage enough to be a 105HP ele.

Soloing isn't rocket science. Stop pretending it is. Either share your builds, or don't, but don't hover in between. All you get with that is flaming (and you've had more than your share).

so for people still interested in trying this :

[skill]glyph of swiftness[/skill][skill]obsidian flesh[/skill][skill]protective spirit[/skill][skill]stoneflesh aura[/skill][skill]shielding hands[/skill][skill]balthazar's spirit[/skill][skill]essence bond[/skill][skill]sliver armor[/skill][skill]empty slot for something else[/skill]

i didn't try this, nor am I planning on trying this (don't have an ele) but feel free to improve/comment on this bar, and adjust it where needed
