very well thought out. I may just toss together a build's section in there instead of individual farming locations (I mean with a little thinking (ex. is there degen, healing, knockdown *searches through list of builds for a counter*) a builds dictionary would be much better than telling people what to do).

Also, will get around to making these changes tomorrow (friends are dragging me out tonight).

Great job, Tsu. The community owes you one for taking the time to assemble such a comprehensive guide.

Now my poor neglected monk will get some more use.

Thanks again, Tsu!

Actually I was going to mention the Spoil Victor Farmer too.
You can kill any almost any boss in Nightfall and Factions using this build - Using the flag away heroes method.

Steps:
1. Kill the mob that surrounds the boss with your heroes and hench. Make sure you call targets the entire time so that the heroes and henchies do not kill the boss.

2. Once the boss is the only one left, flag the henchmen and heroes away so the boss is patroling alone and his agro is broken from you and your heroes. (at this point the heroes and henchies are off your screan and their names are blacked out)

3. Put on your 55 armor and enchant up.

4. Agro the boss alone and cast Spoil Victor and Life Syphon

5. Pick up the brand new shiny green you just got!!!

Great guide!

I still can't believe Anet hasn't nerfed 55'ing into oblivion, though. Basically, nerfing Protective Spirit so that it can't go lower than, say, 30 damage. This way it would retain its use in PvP all the while completely stopping low-health "abuse".

But in the meantime: farm on!

Lagg: They don't do it because they know GW PvE sucks and its the only thing people playing it and not jumping over to WoW.

Imo, WoW is a better PvE game. Its got more variety etc. Can't believe Tsunami didn't like it <,<.

Didn't think about MoR+ZF... cool beans.

And WoW PvE isn't fun. Period. But that's not what this is about.

updated and added a new section. I'm gonna try and add more videos (gamecam was acting up earlier so everything I filmed was lagging). Hopefully I'll get those up this weekend. Anyways I'm glad to hear that you guys enjoy the guide.

-dont read this its a waste of time-
And yes, I really didnt enjoy WoW too much. There are just too many imbalances (class-wise, skill-wise, adding buffs as an excuse to 'balance' the game) in the game and it seems that the people who manage the game dont even care since they are raking in the money (don't even get me started on the ingame economics). In anycase, I didnt come in here to complain. (just my outlook on the game to clear things up as I've been getting a lot of WoW fandom hatemail :P).

Yes, it was nerfed. It has trouble killing a lo of creatures now. However it can still easily kill creatures that don't get knocked down(Ex.Hydras), and creatures with ranged attacks(Ex.Tusked Howlers, and Ice Imps). Creatures with ranged attacks do NOT run from SoJ. Melee creatures that don't get knocked down do run from it, but they also get killed faster.

Although its not really a problem, here you list a build that acomplishs the same thing 4 times. I'd personally just list the most basic of the four once.

Also, in the List of skill bars section, i recommend you tell what each skill bar is 4 to help people that don't have a clue.
