Well you can perma-tank them with stone striker, stoneflesh aura, mantra of earth, and then run sandstorm/earthquake/aftershock/glyph of ele power in the other slots and have a slot open for anything else. No idea what the fire build would be. Equipment needed for the ele to farm it would just be a 3+1 earth magic headpiece, and a staff of enchanting would help too.

My only question would be, why would you want to farm them?

I think they drop rubies.

@ OP
I farm the crap out of them on my Ranger, runing R/W Axe. No idea on a 55 build for it, the normal one should work just fine.

@ unienaule
They drop tons of granite slabs, used to make Destroyer Weapons or just plain sell them, going for 60g per 10 last time I checked 4-5 runs should get you a stack.

I've had them drop a Ruby (or was it a Saphire?) before in the past, there is also a Warrior and Ele boss there, so Elite tomes are an option.

55hp necro works like a dream, i can aggro pretty much everything i can. I have shielding hands though.

Actually, in my experience most things can farm them, I've ran through the area with my necro on 55, so a monk 55 should have no problem there either. Heck my A/D can still farm these guys even after all the mystic regen nerfs.

As for the drops I never got that spectacular loot from em so I don't usually go back to ascalon for it. They're great if you want granite though, as was said above here.

OK So what it the best HM place in Profecies that can be farmed by an elementalist and what is the build and equiptment for that area?

I was off sick from college once and made 100k in three days work just farming these constantly with my warrior, each run takes about 11 minutes. Plus i didnt sell the slabs to the material dude i just merched them thinking it was the same price. I probably couldve made a shedload more.

Tis a nice farm rubies, saphires, Low golds, Elite Tomes, Passage scrolls, money, slabs

Used to be my fav thing to do ^^

Pretty sure a 55 could walk through these

I believe both rubies and sapphires are options. Rubies and Saphs can drop from just about anything in the game, but the stone eles seem to have a higher than normal rate.

Um Stoneflesh Aura + Armor of earth = no damage as far as ele goes... the rest is up to you

I farm them every once in a while. 55 SoJ works fine, though I prefer 55 SV Monk.

Stoneflesh Aura alone, with 15 Earth magic = no damage. OgBCkMrDrwVkN4hfVaBpIVA is my Template code. My build is Stone Daggers, Aftershock, Crystal Wave, Sliver Armor, Stoneflesh Aura, Armor of Restoration, Elemental Attunement, Earth Attunement, with a Sup Earth Magic rune and a +20% Enchantment weapon (doesn't matter what kind as long as you meet the req. for it to work). About a 7 minute run yields Lockpicks, Tomes, Elite Tomes, Saps, Golds, Purples, and tons of Granite Slabs.
