Yeah I've recently made a new Elementalist and find myself in need of some Normal Ele tomes. I've asked around and done some googleing and the only farms i've been even able to find are hydra/drakes in the crystal desert and the ice imps/ ice elementals in the Norn lands. If anyone wouldn't mind sharing their builds/ locations with me I'd be thankful.

Hello, I used the search button for you lol.

Normal Tome Farms [Areas+Builds]

The builds maybe outdated but some tweaking maybe do the job.

that thread ^ and varajar fells is pretty good just to put it here.

I used to kill Mergoyle Wavebreakers in Scoundrel's Rise and Nebo Terrace for their tomes.

I like to 55 the mages outside the wajuun bazaar. 5-6 mages in about 5 minutes.

You can 55 the plants outside kam, forgot the name of the ele boss but it has about 5 or 6 other ele with it.

Damian Manson · Jul 26, 2010, 04:38 PM // 16:38

Best i found were the hydra in skyward reach in the desert in proph can 55 them very easily and still can with current 55 builds but good luck and have fun

Go with either a R/A or A/R outside Saint Anjeka's Shrine, have the quest a new escort in your quest logg and farm the dragon moss that spawn just outside.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9yJBPmy8Cw There is a video on a A/R doing it

A/R or R/A whirling farmer in farajar fells, ice elementals and ice imps.

ball em perfect, whirling defence em and done... this is (if you do pretty good ball job) 20-30 foes in 5-6 min.

if ya need help PM Fly Is Fake Sin

old thread, but meh - I'm bored...go R/Rt VwK outside of LA and farm the hell out of the fire imps....they like to drop ele tomes, charcoal, and gold weapons - you kill 25-28 in 7-8 min

i can post the build if you care to see it

Xx Citrus Spike Xx · Nov 30, 2010, 05:37 PM // 17:37

I care to see it, because i have been after ele tomes also, and on hm i struggle to kill them imps.

Zodiak · Nov 30, 2010, 05:44 PM // 17:44

I just ball up as much as I can on the lake outside of Olafstead and kill it all using an E/Me. Alot of elementalist tomes there

[I Am Unstoppable!]
[Stormchaser]
[Resilient Weapon]
[By Ural's Hammer!]
[Vengeful Was Khanei]
[Vengeful Weapon]
[Radiation Field]
[Troll Unguent]

WS 12+3+1
Restoration 12
Expertise 3

I use pyrebound armor with a major vigor and attunement (or vitae) runes
Droknar's Restoration Scepter
Sheild with +30 handle and +10 vs fire inscription
Dwarven, Asuran and Norn are at r10

You shouldn't ever run out of energy as long as you are taking hits from the imps. Stormchaser is constantly maintained at 16 WS (21s vs 20s recharge). You can aggro as many fire imps as you want, just be sure to alternate between [resilient weapon] and [vengeful weapon] between VwK downtime as they will cancel each other out. Maintain troll and try to keep mobs together within aoe of radiation field.

Note: with active WiK quest(s) it can be a bit annoying because the NPC outside LA will want to follow you - they disrupt aggro, just slows the killing a bit is all but still annoying

PS: also, the dragon moss oustide St. anjeka's shrine is a great place for ele tomes (and gold rare shields - namely, echovald)...however, I use an updated R/E barrage build which kills just as quickly (but more drops) as the whirling defense ranger build (run avg <2 min)

TBH i use similar build but i find iau isnt really needed - 99% of the time i forget its there and i often add great dwarf armor instead .
