The carp own be 100 times over by the time i get there.

EDIT: Nvm.. I feel like a noob for not seeing it right away. There's a 15% dp on his screen. He's Luxon. So he uses that cheap trick to rez somewhere on other side next to Kunvie avoiding the carp alltogether. It wont work when the Kurziks take back what's rightfully theirs.
I'd become Luxon, but i need the faction for my other char to pass the game.

Mantra of concentration usually works great, unless it gets interrupted by wild blow, which is unlikely.

I know that mantra of concentration will only allow you to sact one Visage, but I noticed that once the Shiroken are under the effects of one Visage they usually WILL NOT interrupt you when you cast the second one due to being drained of energy.


MercuriusTerMaxum - there's no IW spirit bond on wiki. There's only the spirit bond build with no mention of IW. Please dont be lazy and help us out.
I believe the jist of the build is you bring IW with Spirit Bond. Kay?

actually there is no rez zone over there by kunvie. those carp r only the first obstacle. ill see if fraps will cooperate for me and ill do a fast vid. if u can cant understand my directions.

1. at the start rez point run towards the carps before u get in there aggro run back towards the rez shrine and run past. if your side has control of the shrine the gaurds will attack them. if your side doesnt the carps will stop just short of the shrine and stay right in front of it.
2. theres a a few patrols but they r easy to manage just stay to the far left and run when the grasppings leave.
3. u may have to run past the first group shirokens due to a pop up of outcast assasins. just go for the second group of shiroken as the first group will usually kill the outcasts if they fight.
4. once u clear the 3 groups of shiroken the fun begins trying to get kunvie to draw out away from other grasppings and carps. just watch there patrol patterns and keep PS and SB up at all times. he can hit hard thats where the DP came from

like i said hopefully ill get a fraps vid up soon for u guys.

http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Me/Mo_55_IW_Solo_Mesmer

This dude got it in his head that the 55 iw build should be a spirit bond build >.<

As to mor I havent had any issues with mana...I think it's all about timing. If a visage is up when you draw agro the sins mana should be drained to prevent disrupting stab, the agro is where IoW comes in handy, have Mor up then I cast visage>PS>SB then agro and recast SB and ps before the sins can group around me then MoR and the second visage. Perhaps the lack of FC is the difference, 1/4 second PS becomes .16 and SB becomes .66, the total casting time for both together is under 1 second.

no need for that i have been playing GW for a very long time and was one of the first to come up with 105/55 monk builds for UW plus ive beaten prophicies with her as a 55 when ppl said it really couldnt be done. i look for the hard stuff to do. just my way of farming. lol when i do spider cave i head to the front and clear the abysalls and rangers lol. ofcourse all those RTS games helped to pick up on the small details of things.


by the way youtube's giving me probs loading the video any ideas of a better place to host it would be appreciated. just shows how to get past the carps. i thought that everyone alrdy did the shirokens on the back side also. so i wasnt worried about doing anything on it. so srry if the vid isnt that good. but i figured id try kunvie and it worked you'll just have to figure the part of getting him on your own guys. however ill give a hint- thats why i have conjure nightmare on my bar. if u guys ever need a question or something im on one of my 2 accounts in game. Tarn Verde 1st account or Flash Gordan my 2nd account. feel free to whisper any time. just let me know your from here and ill help if i can.

First of all, grammer is your friend. Im not entirely sure what your post MEANT.

And claims of "Ive beaten prophecies solo when people said it couldnt be done" and then on your very next post admitting to the fact that you have not, at least, solo'd Hells Precipice does little more the label you a liar.

i didnt say i soloed with her. i said i beat prophicies as a 55 monk with the same skills as a solo monk. sorry if u got confused on that but nowhere did i say i soloed and beat it.
and as far as grammer is exactly concerned now it seems pretty clear what was meant there. now plzz if ur trying to troll theres no need for it. as i see its no more than a simple misunderstanding. so plzz dont jump to conclusions. and as far as being labeled a liar it dont bother me as i know the truth. if anyone else has problems with my other post im sure they will let me know.

Wait, so you were bragging because you, amongst other accomplishments, beat Hells Precipice with, what, Henchies? Players? While you, a 55 monk, remained subpar?

I dont think many people will say thats impossible, but most will agree that its something you probably shouldnt do.

i dont see where u say using 55 skill build is being subpar. no plz if u have some prob with me. take it in a PM. now i wasnt bragging. plzz stop taking this O.T. now all i did was state something i have done. and im sorry if you are that narrow minded to realize that the 55 build can be used in more than just a solo mode.

back to topic

heres a pix of merki's sheild drop.

u can solo him but if u see a reef lurker close attack it and bring him with u when u attack merki's its for the extra energy from its attack.

Getting to Kunvie and solo'ing her isn't impossible. I've done it on my necro spirit bonder:

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...9&postcount=51

I'd be inclined to believe Manitoba when he says you can do it on a Mo/Me or Me/Mo with IW.

Well here's my contribution....
When your anti farm code kicks in on shiroken, you can go kill...... Silent ancient Onata!! (I know he drops a crappy green, but it's fun anyway)





I bet you can solo the whole thing there with the right build... but the mesmers own me with diversion. I'm thinking of trying holy veil since that will reduce the diverson to like 2-3 sec, making it managable. If anyone figures it out, let me know.

Yay someone else is taking the farm further and killing Kunvie. Managed to do it myself when I start adding IW in case any Shiro'ken didn't drop.
