Umm.... Thats a big N O on both counts.

55hp monks cannot solo griffons as well as before. They can still solo places.

IWAY is still nearly as affective as before (Dang!!). It simply cannot be used off of dead minions and its attack speed has been slightly decreased. HA IWAY builds never uses minions anyway.

Not sure what game you were thinkin about on this pointless post?... oops flamish...

enjoy.

I'm confused - why can't 55 Monks solo griffins anymore? And what made them worse?

-Cough- In my opinion, the only I-Monks that are gone are the bot farmers that were used to generate huge amounts of gold to be sold on Ebay. These were stopped, so yes this is a good thing.

However even most decent I-Monks didn't really rely on griffon farming at all. There are plenty of other easily farmed areas for I-Monks that are much more profitable, such as the UW for one.

55s can solo everything they could before. There are just less griffons in the usual spot. ANyone look outside of destiny gogrge in "the scar"?

And Hydra's in Skyward.

And Ettins in Kryta

And...etc....etc.....

Augry was nerfed against bots, not humans. It was the easiest place to farm. Since nerfing the drops didn't stop it. They had to go a step further.

You can't stop farming. You can only hope to contain it.

Actually alot of people did Griffons as it was mind numbing and required little effort. As we know, from the discontinuation of K-nex and Legos becoming what they are now, people want results and quick, griffons give that illusion.

Ya... UW is not profitable, I don't understand why people think this. UW gets trumped by mostly every other farm spot... hell farming char yields more money. Its all a question of time spent and money earned.

If IWAY was gone, why are people still claiming to be using it?

I figure its just modified a bit, but its still there.

I play a 55 necro, my dad plays a 55 monk. We both still farm perfectly fine. Theres other griffon spots, hydras, ettins, trolls, sometimes FoW and UW runs are good as well.

I'm not sure why this was started.

To the OP - Right on! It's a start, and Anet deserves cudo's for not nerfing everything into the ground, but just trying the adjustments,

All you people keep focusing on the one skill, "I Will Avenge You!" that IWAY is named after. This one skill is no longer absolutely central to IWAY teams. There are at least 6 nerfs to IWAY, *one* of which is the slight change to the actual skill.

Before you continue the "OMG OMG OMG IT STILL WORKS ON PETSZ!!!!!!!!!!11111oneoen" realize that the skill IWAY is only one small part of the IWAY build.

Henchies FTW.

I think that people shouldn't be able to solo anything past sanctum Cay.

I agree, this game should be more based on team work. Maybe people would be a little more friendly to eachother if they actualy had to work together.

Let's see.
You can farm with any1, not just solo. Farming solo is for getting money mayhbe items.

If you could only farm monsters till cay or LA people would solo farm there. whatver would be farmable would be farmed.

And after a while... when you have 3 lvl 20 characters (1 slot for pvp) and all skills unlocked, quests/missions done there is nothin left to do in pve. You can play pvp, but in my case i`m not that much frustrated by my rank, so I only pvp when my guild wants it and when we have enough people for a party.

So... tell me what should i do. Delete one of my lvl 20 characters (e/* , r/*, w/*) and start over with somethin just to repeat stuff i did a million times?

So, if you can only farm up to Sanctum Cay then you wouldn't have people NOT doing any desert missions and running their butts off. In other words, Desert and after would be for missions like it is supposed to be.

And FoW/UW is an exception because you have to be ascended to get in anyway. Which is a good limitation, but screwed over by people that get run through desert.
