Monk collectors rod? - Guild Wars Forums

Chrono Cross · Jul 28, 2005, 03:53 PM // 15:53

Heard there was a collectors rod for monks that adds +15 energy, if anyone knows where this guy is I would appreciate any info on his location.

There is a collector out side of bloodstone fen that is where I got my rod from. But the draw back is you lose 1 in energy regen.

dont know the specific location, but i can tell you that rod also has a -1 energy regen on it. so unless you have a very specific build meant to operate on less energy regen, youre shooting yourself in the foot.

Not as such, there isn't. There is no collector rod that gives +15 energy.

You're thinking of the artifacts! There exist artifacts for every caster job that give you Energy +12, Energy +15, and Health +30; but at the expense of -1 Energy Regen.

After some extensive usage of these artifacts, I've come to the conclusion that they're better off left in the desert to corrode unless you have some alternate means of energy recovery, such as Inspiration magic or a Blood Necro in your party. Or Balthazar's Spirit.

As the Necro, my energy isn't much of a concern to the rest of the party; and I find that I make more use of that +1 regen than I do with the +15 energy.

P.S. switching artifacts around, I.E. starting off with the +15 artifact and then switching out when you hit zero doesn't work. It'll leave you with -15 energy that you'll have to catch up on!

My setup for my Mo/N is first primary weapon set is my smiting staff +10 energy 20/20 armor +4 health +20 something, 2nd weapon set is jsut my healing ankh +27 energy regen -1 health +30. Planning on using my staff mostly unless if I really get low on energy for some reason and I need to heal then I'll switch to my 2nd set for a little extra energy boost then switch back to my primary set when all done healing.

no sam, youre wrong. there ARE rods that have +15 energy/-1 regen. just create a pvp caster and you can select them off the list. there are some collectors around that have them, but ive never payed attention to which, because -1 regen makes it essentially useless.

EDIT:chrono, please note the post just before yours... be aware that when you switch off of the +15 item, you will lose 15 energy. this can and will put you at negative numbers if your energy is low. takes a while to regen when youre starting from -15 energy

the deadly cesta i got has 7-13 damage +15 energy -1 energy regen

hmm, checked out the bloodstone fen collector, but don't have enough skill points to put up to 8 blood magic >.<

Just really experimenting on mana conservation. I just bought a 2nd set of drok armor for my monk, I'm using the Censor set and the tattoo's. If I start getting dmg with the tats then I just switch back to Censors, heh. energy with my primary weapon set is 36 with censor but with the tat's then I get up to 47.
