I've got a Necro primary that I'm teaching to 55-farm, but I have to deal with both unfamiliarity (with 55ing), with laggy skill activation delay... and with only a 19% Enchant Sword (don't have any 20% ones, but I have two 19% ones).
I'd say it's easy to see which primary + secondary is best for doing this. Just go to the Astralarium and try to count the number of Mo/D's there.
I just use Wroth's Holy Rod(halfs casting and recharge of Prot skills) and -50hp Cesta and it's no problem at all..........unless something good comes on TV and I forget to cast SoA or SH.

And u are still farming it, not worth it anymore, but easy to get one really cheap, and there are still buyers who'd pay 100k+ for high req ones too

I seriously cant believe how fast the prices are dropping. Yesterday a guildie got a req 13 one from Zehlon and where 2 days before that it wudve been around 100k+10e, he only mustered 75k. I believe that this is gonna be our new deadsword folks.

Definitely monk is easiest to counter the degen. I did a few runs with my nec and just took too long. Had to use Insidious Parasite and covered with Parasitic Bond. Even then it was pretty sketchy.

Have done the run around 20 times with my monk and still no CS. Has anyone else had okay drops the first 2 runs and then crap after? I've been having to switch to another place after 2 runs.

Meh...

Guess it is about time I started putting those Elite Monk Tomes I got from Byzzr to good use... as well as the silly number of elite skills I unlocked with my Skill Hunter Assassin.
Heh... and to think I can now give Shield of Judgement to my Monk without her ever needing to set foot in Mineral Springs. ^_^

Time to dig her out of storage and get to using her...
... as soon as I have unlocked Dervish secondary for her at least. ^_^;;

These guys drop unusual good loot: (Screenshots taken after 2 seperate runs, killing +/-55 enemies in Zehlon Reach)




I got that Collosal on my 3rd run (1st screenshot is my 1st run). It's a req 12 max dmg, +15 while stanced, deep wound +33% and hp+30. How much would that go for? I plan on keeping it though, the skin is awesome

So I'm guessing that this does not work for warriors anymore....

Or does it?

Is there a reason people are selling un-id Colossals?
I was just farming and picked up a gold, but non-inscribable Bladed Recurve in Zehlon...
