Balthazar's Spirit, Healing Breeze, Symbol Of Wrath, Balthazar's Aura, Orison Of Healing, Zealot's Fire, Healing Touch, Shield of Judgement [Elite]

I believe this is it.

Vynn · May 21, 2005, 12:39 PM // 12:39

Divine Wrath seems to be one of them..

edit: Symbol Of Wrath was what I meant. Pretty good too

I saw a similiar W/mo build like this for the same map. nice to see you don't have to be a warrior to do it.

As long as you have /Mo you can do good farming with most other first professions.

Do you think he was a smiter/ elementalist all the way through?

Regards, Ashleigh.

Hintshigen Elgin · May 21, 2005, 01:10 PM // 13:10

It's really a sub-par build, as far as farming builds go, very limited on what you can take on. Won't get any high level drops like this but it does work for the mid ranges pretty effectively.

Here's the skill listing in order.

Shield of Judgement
Balthazar's Aura
Symbol of Wrath
Orison of Healing
Healing Touch
Healing Breeze
Zealot's Fire
Balthazar's Spirit

No I don't think so, it's not that good when teaming up with others.
Especially not with enemy monks around that cancel some of those spells.

Lim-Dul · May 21, 2005, 01:29 PM // 13:29

It's a pure Suicide Monk build. It's good for farming runes etc. It's useless in all other situations and against enemies who can dispel enchantments. If you're a monk though, you can use this kind of build to get very rich and then change your setup for real PvE and PvP.

Wow someone is actually mirroring my vid, I feel special.

As for the strengths and weaknesses of that combo. Yes that design is for specifically riverside. The only true weakness is unlike the Mo/W it lacks knockdown protection. However I have the mana to take down any group of non-knockdown mobs, via having mana to spare for purges and cures.

Nothing to keep me from switching to an amnoon, or perdition farming build hehe. Or just as easy I can become your friendly neighborhood healer, ele nuker, blood god, take your pick, domination shutdown, I pretty much have all the skills from every attribute line I want for any situation cept uniques.

Also I don't use balthazar's spirit anymore, usually slot a hex breaker, or purge conditions in the 8th slot.

To answer Ashleigh, as I was leveling that character, I went from Fire/Blood e/n, then higher levels switched to air/blood, then I unlocked all the secondaries, went on a skill binge, and well now I just farm for myself and guildies.

eh I wouldn't of minded really, been tossing that vid around these forums a lot last couple days

Harkonis · May 22, 2005, 08:11 AM // 08:11

What's the best way to get skill points endgame? I switched my secondary and am at 0 skill points. Levelling up for skill points past 20 is so slow.

InSaNe · May 22, 2005, 09:56 AM // 09:56

Thats almost as Insane as me LOL

InSaNe · May 22, 2005, 12:17 PM // 12:17

Ok this is bugging me now, what is the song in the video? and who by? lol

JAGeAkurei · May 22, 2005, 12:41 PM // 12:41

Queens of the Stone Age: Go With The Flow

The intro is a sound byte from Pink Floyd's: Money

Kill stuff around lvl 20 +/- true solo, you'll get around 64-120xp depending on level.

If you watch my xp bar during the different clips, all those clips were made in a 1 1/2 hour period. Specifically if you watch the 3rd fight, watch how quickly the xp bar moves when you kill 6 18's solo. Were they spiders or golems you'd get even more.

dansamy · May 30, 2005, 10:10 PM // 22:10

That is an awesome little vid. I'm not ready to go farming just yet. My el/mo is level 20, but she isn't "finished" with the game yet.

femto · Jun 01, 2005, 04:47 AM // 04:47

how many threads is this vid gonna appear in? lol

awesome build though, I actually replicated it and I'm LOVING it for farming! I make sure to always keep enough refund points handy to go full air when I wanna play arenas/tombs though

but anyway, I had a question about your build: at the end of the video you claimed to have 11+3 smiting, but how did you get the +3 in smiting being a primary elementalist? couldn't have been a rune....

orcishhordez · Jun 01, 2005, 04:58 AM // 04:58

whats the advantages of E/Mo over W/Mo?

C-Tzar · Jun 01, 2005, 05:00 AM // 05:00

In general? Nothing, just very different play styles. Neither is "better".

For farming? Elems can dish out a LOT more damage and to several mobs at the same time. Making as many things die as fast as possible is the key to effective farming.
