When I submitted this build the Ghial's staff sold for 65k easily. I haven't tried to sell one lately. I will have to try it again to see how it goes. I have been off farming other things.

Hey there Stee, well as you know I'm also mostly off doing something else

I was still able to sell the staff for 60K the other day, but I don't wast a lot of time advertising in towns. Maybe I was just lucky.

Ghial with 2 Ritualist heals too quickly so it is better off to eliminate any extra Ritualist.

What if 4 spawn? 0.o

that W/N build works really well... and you guys dont have to run into the place to kill him.. pull him with a longbow. it makes everything easier IMO

Ultimate Sacrifice · Jun 26, 2006, 05:10 PM // 17:10

Pull the golem as far as you can away from Ghial. Then he will not keep pulling a golem out of him. Just drag him back while attacking only the golem. Keep pulling back past the small bridge if you have to. Just keep attacking the golem and pull. Ghial will quit following after a while and the golem will be left alone. You should be able to finish off the ghial and go for ghial after that.

I'm assuming that you have him by himself no mesmers, rits or mages in his group? If you have him 1-on-1 +flesh golem, pull him as far back to the tengu market as you can. Ghial and his golem should lose aggro. Equip a longbow and launch and arrow at his golem. If done correctly, the flesh golem should come WITHOUT Ghial. Making sure Ghial is not in aggro range, finish off the golem. Ghial should not make another golem out of the one you just killed. After that you can kill him easily.

Uhh, nvm Stee answered while i was typing my post.

I tried this with a following mage and it worked after a LONG LONG time. I'll try and post a screenie if i can get ghial to summon his golem.

Stee, I sold the staff after a while for 65k. It took a while and when I finally heard the whisper noise, i had gotten two buyers. If I can get this staff again, I will try with a lower price, perhaps 60k? I also saw these staffs going for 55k or offers.

i always lure ghial away with a longbow... and he follows till he is between the little bridge (after u kill the 1st mob) and that pointy rooftop.
Golem is nvr a problem because u can lure it away as mentioned in the previous 2 posts.

And ritualists tend to always do a skill which takes some time and keeps them standing instead of following... just lure ghial away from them, should be rather easy.

Well this is not a problem, as Stee stated in his build in the beginning, once you killed off the to knights infront of Ghail, you lure the rest out one by one. Run back to the beginning of the long bridge, just be carefull not to agro the bunch on the little pavilion accross the long bridge. Then if Ghail does not follow sprint forward and take care of them. Usually they will come in pairs so you can easily dispatch them.

If Ghail follows you even better then just pull him across the small bridge and kill him.

I haven't been there for quite some time and did a couple of runs yesterday, got 2 staffs in 11 runs, then it all dried up again. So time to go do something different again.

Good farming all

Ultimate Sacrifice · Jun 28, 2006, 05:48 PM // 17:48

I soloed this sucker about 10 times and only got 1 staff to drop.

How can you even include Tiger Stance? It pointless the way you describe the run. If you miss with an attack, it ends. Weapon of Warding renders Tigers Stance useless. You even say to leave a ritualist alive when fighting Ghial, making Tigers Stance completely useless against him.

Well when you try the run you will realize that the ritualist will only cast warding on himself and not others in the group. So the weapons of warding only comes into play when you are attacking ritualists. And if your smart about it, you will only cast it when weapons of warding wears off. So actually tiger stance is an excellent skill for this run, kills mesmers, knights, elementalists, extremely fast. Try it before you knock it and enjoy the run.

Mr.H.Mishima · Jul 01, 2006, 04:23 PM // 16:23

The ritualist will cast it on whomever you are attacking. which means Ghial if you leave a ritualist alive. I can do the run just fine, but I use this build.

Glads Armor
-2 stance, -3 Hexed Shield of the Wing
Zealous Flamberge of Defense

Superior Vigor
Superior Absorbtion
Superior Sword
Superior Tactics
Minor Stgrength

Max Tactics
Max Sword
Rest Str.

Healing Sig
Glads Defense
Riposte
Galrath
Sun and Moon
Silverwing
Shield Stance
Sprint

Glads and Riposte kill the knights fast, and you are almost in 75% block 100% of the time.

Phouse · Jul 01, 2006, 04:57 PM // 16:57

Ok, so the build works.

But where the hell do u get tiger stance from? al i can fdin is sites saying what it does and everything, but nothing saying where u get it?

Phouse · Jul 01, 2006, 06:31 PM // 18:31

Ignore the last post. Found it.

Teres another way to get to ghial going from the marketplace.

North out of Marketplace, turn right, over the bridge, sprint past teh first grp and take a sharp right up the ramp, follow the path up to xaquang zone.

Once in the zone, head south towards The mantid monk boss, sprint past him and theres a grp just before the bridge.

Once theyre out the way, on the other side of the bridge is another grp, this is where it meets up with the original directions.

Havent tested this route yet but i think its shorter. However it might be slightly harder. But as I say i need to test this before i can confirm it.

Just tested the build though and was amazed. Nice one.

Used Victos Blade + a Grognars Defender, which is Armor 16, +45 health in a stance + recieved dmg -2 in a stance, not sure if tiger + dolyak count as a stance or not though.

It's impossible to make that run from the marketplace. The degen you get from the Am Fah necro's and the marksmen (poison + cripple) is up to -10 degen. You simply can't heal enough....even with tactis at 16 (heal sig gives 159) However...after the initial fight from Senji's, run to this exit and rezone. 3 groups until you get to Ghial. Run past the monk and then run onto the bridge. If you fill up you inventory, the Tengu settlement is straight off the bridge past the part at the bottom of the ramp.

There is more than one way to skin a cat. But bringing riposte on this build for the knights only is more of a waste than Tiger Stance. Try the build and I bet run run through them faster than with your build

Turbobusa · Jul 02, 2006, 08:58 AM // 08:58

tiger stance also counters faintheartedness, not totally but that really helps
"for great justice" works great as you gain 2x adrenaline.

@Phouse
tigers is a stance, dolyak is...a signet
better bring a -2/45 enchanted, always on with mending
