You know I prefer the Kirins and Dragon Moss outside of Maatu keep. They've dropped me a few golds, something that the Vermins don't do. I also kind of tried this in Nahpui Quarter but I had a problem with the Ritualist Tengu things. I was looking for more places to use this but didn't find anything. And the Dredge use Heal Sig which messes you up. I wonder tho if Wardens will be farmable (they have no real Monks), altho they do have some extremely annoying Mesmers. I think Kirins, Dragon Moss, and Wardens are by far the best I can think of.

The Nahpui tengu have the same drop rates and items as the vermin except there harder to farm, not impossible though i farmed them for a while with a Rt/E build, heres the basic structure:
Vengefull Was Khanhei
Armor Of Earth
Silver Armor
Weapon Of Warding
Vengeful Weapon
Whatever
Whatever
Whatever
Basicly do the same but instead of echoing khanhei use a weapon of warding/silver armor combo and stand next to the casters and wait for khanhei to recharge. Like i said ... not the best place or method of farming thats why i went with vermin instead.
Also i got round to trying Pongmei valley, not bad , its a little slower than Vermin but not bad at all considering the wardens of the leaf drop piles of hide and the obvious higher rate of rare items :P (btw you can get rares with vermins ...just not that often i picked up 3 celestial staffs and a celestial longbow) ..i would recomend this area though as there are'nt any interupts / knockdowns.

Been looking for good places to farm also, but as of yet ive only been able to farm outside Matuu, Senji's and a little bit of farming outside ToA (tyria)
Most drops are blue, one or two purples no golds as of yet, and a load of usefull stuff, i would recommend farming the kirin as the money drops are alot higher than that of the vermin.
If you find a group of Am Fah Assassins, take them as their so easy to kill Khanhei + Vengeful just absolutley mauls them as they attack 2 times as much as other enemys they die alot faster.

You can try farming south of Tanglewood Copse (you know that little area that has the lift guy take you to Arborstone)- it's only like 4 groups but they are extremely easy to farm and there is no annoying classes (like Mesmers and Earth Wardens). Still haven't gotten a gold drop or anything but at least they drop some.

Thanks for the awesome run and build. Got about 10K tonight trying a few different ones. One thing to keep in mind is the Vermin hides can be salvaged to scales which currently sell to the material trader for about 150 Gold per 10. So on my last run of 8 Vermin hides got me 30+ scales and 450 gold.
I tried doing the yetis and had problems. Most of the time would run into a ritualist who would heal or some of the yetis using healing sigs. Anyone manage to farm these?
I've also only managed to kill the boss vermin twice. I am working on technique a bit and think i might bring Congure Phantasm (which is also Illusion) to help deal with the single guys (bosses) or healers.
Thanks again for the build. This is my first time at farming anything and didn't realize it was this fun!

Having both makes it a whole lot easier. The battles aren't going to last 16-18 seconds. I've noticed the battle typically ends after the third cast of Khanhei.

Yetis are quite hard to farm, Red Yetis go down instantly, but the big white yetis use heal sig i think, and it took me about 4 khanhei's and quite alot V/W
Im just going to work my way through Tyria with my new char, so i can farm in the desert

Using 2 copys of the sympathetic visage skill allows you to keep it chained for as long as you like , and yes ... they do stack (i like to get a bit of overlap going to to really devestate their energy...and to see lots of pretty numbers flying around XD)
As for yetis.. i can take them down except the ritulists mainly becuase they take long breaks off their attack to cast pain and other spirits.

my current build:
resilent weapon [rit]
vengful was khanei [rit][elite]
mantra of resolve [me]
channeling [me]
arcane echo [me]
first cast mantra (75 sec. u cannot be interrupted (costs 5 mana for each block)
now channeling and arcane echo..
run into the mobs (it could be 2 groups easy)
now cast khanei and resilent weapon - after khanei is charged to the half, cast khanei again (from arcane).... if its not enough till yet u can cast it a 3rd time.. this should be the last time... its easy with this build
dont forget to cast resilent weapon again...
you have 3 slots free for this build - what would you choose? i got some healing with me, but dont realy need them

vengeful weapon is awesome to take, you could also fire in a visage spell to drain them

Well if this is for vermin farming mantra of resolve is not going to help you since they use a knockdwon skill thats the reason AV and SV are in there (also reduces the dmg you take since they wont be using lead attacks ect)

Hmmm...Remind me why we stopped farming griffons?It was because those scarabs did well of the profane and we would lose all enchants, right?If thats the thing, then this build can easily counter that...

How often does the assassin boss drop his green weapon when farming alone (I know there is no exact time but an estimate would be nice).
