Why not just do the daily quest to get elite tomes?I would mind knowing that Sin non perma build you use.

-I can farm 90% of the bosses in GW with a W/N Grenth's Balance in HM....
-You can do raptor farming with W/N without hero.
-Grayed out hero/henchmen does not recieve tomes/elites/greenies.
-You are a 'stereotypical shadow former', not know how to play the game, all you know is pressing 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and killing things.
- SF isnt nerfed, you can still use it, it just requires more skill.

- You are an idiot. This would only prove that YOU can't do it.

In particular, there isn't any build that would allow me to farm even the easiest bosses like the Scar Eater, Woe Spreader, and Pywatt the Swift (and the daggers that Pywatt drops is amazing to equip to your assassin heroes). Luckily, I did manage to farm the woe spreaders I needed for the Discordway build, but I need about one to two more staffs for some of my other characters.

This is a joke post, and the sarcasm just wasn't evident, right?

If so: I had a good chuckle, and read the post out loud to my husband so he could enjoy it, as well. Well done.

If not: Oh, hon, you need a nap.

A perma-nap?

And yeah u can still farm with 130 derv, 55 necro, 330 rit and theres more.

Sethellington · Feb 27, 2010, 12:30 PM // 12:30

Well I just did some solo farming bosses with my Nec. Still works. Just because you can't do it on your sin, doesn't mean no one can do it on any profession. Close thread now that the question's been answered?

Why does OP have such a fixation on Woespreaders for discord heroes? The discord N/Rts (healer and curser) should both be carrying PwK most of the time, so it doesn't matter WHAT weapon they're carrying. The N/Mo minion bomber should be equipped with a 40/40 death set -- a Woespreader is just sub-optimal.

Even if none of the above were true, there are plenty of crafted weapons, some with very nice skins, that can be modded with the exact same stats as a Woespreader. My ele's necros are all equipped with crafted Deldrimor weapons. The necros for other characters are equipped with BMP weapons, Asuran weapons, or Norn weapons. It's all good.

But none of them use anything with stats like a Woespreader. The N/Rt healer carries a soul-reaping staff, because sometimes I need to use her as either a regular N/Rt healer or as a blood necro. The discord curser carries a curses staff, because sometimes I need to use him with a non-discord curses build (SS or SV usually).

So if I make a video killing bosses in HM what does that prove?

This guy was QQing about it not being possible to kill bosses if there was an SF nerf for months, so it's no suprise that he is here QQing now it has been nerfed. All it means is that he is so bad a player that it is only possible for him to do HM with godmode enabled.

But the good news is, now godmode isn't available, he might just learn how to play the game!

Oh and yes, flagging H/H away (names have to turn grey) does not affect the drop rate of greens/tomes/golds etc. It's been a standard farming technique even before the loot nerf. As for the other merch junk, well that is little to do with party size anyhow.

BTW, last week doing zaishen bounty, Kepkhet dropped a double green for me! (HM of course on my monk, my ranger did it HM too)

Brute of Balthazar · Feb 27, 2010, 08:59 PM // 20:59

I assume this guy is trolling, I can't imagine (from his inability to spell most words right or use grammar) that he is "joking" nor can he claim ignorance of the issue; due to him spamming such dribble all over the riverside inn threads and being rightly told that he's chatting shite. Can this thread be closed as it's a waste of time and frankly untrue. Greens can be farmed if you so desire.

lol, the E/me can do it easy!

The Drunkard · Feb 27, 2010, 10:20 PM // 22:20

Why did you post this comment AGAIN from the 2/25/2010 update thread? Plenty of people (myself included) gave alternatives to boss farming that doesn't include permaform.

Spiritz · Feb 27, 2010, 10:27 PM // 22:27

hmm lets see , 55 mo/n n/mo and sos spammer can still farm the monk boss outside blacktide den , my rit can also farm 3 bosses in arbortone err i cba to carry on but it would seem some of us may be playing a different version of guildwars where bosses can be farmed .
Oh how did we cope a few years ago with totally nerfed sf - impossible to keep it up for more than around 16 secs ?

sthpaw · Feb 27, 2010, 11:02 PM // 23:02

wow just wow are people that terrible?
man it looks like the nerf wasnt even a nerf, doasc and fowsc is still around builds are slightly modified can still be done and you complaining about farming bosses in HM.
im pretty annoyed anet did do a proper job nerfing it and it took them what 5 months.

Nah, he's serious...

sad...almost makes me wish guru banned for stupidity

but that would be mean...and I'm never mean...

Dark Paladin X · Feb 28, 2010, 03:21 AM // 03:21

Okay, as promised, here is a Youtube video I made to prove that boss farming in HM is impossible:

Sir Tieger · Feb 28, 2010, 03:30 AM // 03:30

Wow....you're kidding right?

Only thing that video "proves" is you're too retarded to come up with a new build. And are crying over the fact that now you have to wait for someone to put a new one on pvx.

You've proved you can't use the nerfed build exactly as you used to. Newsflash: perma wasn't the only build that worked, and the update didn't nerf every single farm build in existance.

Since you're going to be stubborn and single minded, I really don't see this thread going anywhere.

Closed.
