Default How to play a permasin for farming?

I just started one, and I'm trying to max out my energy, to make SF last as long as it can. I've got the three basic skills to keep it up: GoS, DP, and SF. After that, i've got Sliver armor, and so that leaves me with three slots that I have no idea what I should add in. I guess Ebon standard and Intesnity, as well as Death Charge. Do Ebon and Intensity stack?

Also, the only weapon that I have is a +20% enh axe. My guess is that the best weapon for farming with this build is a zealous scythe of enchanting, and an Insightful staff of enchanting. Can it be any staff, or should i get it for a specific attribute? I'm worried, cuz I don't have a lot of money yet, and want to invest in a good weapon. Thanks in advance!

You will want a staff for even more energy
+10 (Basic staff energy)
+5 While enchanted (or health above 50, your choice)
+5 Head

Well the attribute doesn't matter too much, but seems we're using earth magic, i use an earth magic staff

Also + 2 energy on every piece, except head (that will have + 3 shadow arts)
also + 3 energy (insignia on chest)
and + 2 energy (insignia on legs)

Skills you will want are

GoS, DP, SF, GoLE, Ebony vanguard battle standard of honor, silver armor, by ural's hammer, and optional (i use deaths charge incase i lag and get stuck in a mob)

Yes Ebon + intensity/ural's stack. And will go as so
Silver damage 10
Ebon + 10
Ural's +25%
So you will be doing 25 damage. (Numbers i just made up, subject to change )

3 different type of perma-form sins, each with a different way of managing energy. Look at all and decide which one would work best for you.

you missed perma daggers, i cant find the build on pvx for some reason.as far as i can remember (im away ffrom my home pc) its the a/e sf perma combo with way of the lotus with 2 of the lotus attacks MB and ear bite on the end for added dmg and bleeding. also the best daggers if u are going to use this is daggers of xueko(i may have spelt it wrong)

*update*

Learned how to maintain SF, and use it with +20 energy, 20% Enchantment Staff. My main source of damage is Silver Armor, boosted by Ural's Hammer and Ebony for about 35 dam per hit against the raptors. I tried a zealous scythe, but even against mobs, i only got 1 point of energy back per hit, instead of 1 point for every enemy around me like i thought it would. The staff is a better weapon in this case. I also got Intensity, but I haven't tried it yet. I usually have to wait a bit for Silver to recharge, so I'm looking for another AoE skill to trade it for, probly fire.
Next question - Where else do enemies pile up enough to use this build?

PS - Got monument armor! ^_^y

As to where, check PvX, there are a lot of lists of places with what and where, and how to get there on the farming page. Also, for recharge, certain places allow for Air of Superiority to proc more often, and therefore a higher chance of triggering recharge. You also might want to add glyph of lesser energy to help with energy issues.
