Just take all attrib points away from mysticism and put it into healing.

Actually, Mystic vigor heals for more than vigorous spirit. It heals for 5 for EACH enchantment on you. Since you have 5 on you (Prot spirit, mystic vigor, mystic regen, essence bond, balths spirit) than you are getting 25 health per hit and you can't get that much with vigorous spirit (even with healing prayers at 12)

You can put Vahlen the Silent on your list of soloable bosses.

Note: You'll need to die once or twice, his mob is huge as you can see

. [Edit: Make sure you time your casts inbetween the CG's. Watch that damage monitor!]

Gonna try Dabineh Deathbringer soon too.

Oh, and you can add a note about Marobeh Sharptail - if you go NW then NE, you can zone to Holdings of Chokin and kill him again. I did that about 5 times, got about 4 total golds + 3 purples + 0 greens :'[

Edit: Another thing you may wanna mention - it is simply impossible to kill Marobeh if your weapon isn't customized and not 14-15^50/enchanted/-10/-5. I've tried it 3 times, then I went and customized my scythe.

Re-edit: Leilon, Tranquil Water can not be reached with this build.

Re²-edit: Corporal Suli can not be reached either. Too many necromancers/mesmers on the way. Tried it with Vow of Silence, you'd need 11 Mysticism [get Scythe Mastery down to 13] and a 17-20% Enchanting grip and perfect timing with your enchants inbetween Vow casts. Not worth the effort, IMHO.

Re³-edit: I got screenies that prove that Djinns can be soloed effectively with this build. Even if the group has 3 Roaring Ethers in it! Clicky

I have done video of farming these bosses. U can farm much faster when u first die and kill 2 bosses close to u. Then die again so u warp to start and then go and kill bosses who are on the shore.

Cambeul · Nov 28, 2006, 08:38 PM // 20:38

I just got Wandalz's Refuge using this build. Though I had to take Henches and Heroes to take out the Guys around him...

I go out from Honour Hill, take a left [North], and keep going till I have to go right [East]. Then I zone to Wilderness of Bahzda (sp?), kill Kormab, Burning Heart again and go all the way back to HH. Got 2 gold Jeweled Daggers and quite a bit of gold. 2 Rubies in 5 mins ftw

Edit: Piccie!

gates of torment will have it....i think they have all skills just like ember light camp

Geppo il Pazzo · Nov 28, 2006, 10:33 PM // 22:33

thx for the courtesy.

Etrik · Nov 29, 2006, 12:30 AM // 00:30

Yep, Gates of torment is Elonia's version of ELC.

I think you can unlock it via PvP then buy it at the Command Post, Geppo. Not sure tho, so don't sue me if you've wasted 1k Balth faction

Side note: Wandalz the Angry can not be reached with this build. Way too many mesmers/necros on the way. You can, however, use henchies to clear everything up to his group of hunters/howlers and then take the group down solo with your henchies off-radar. Worked fine for me, got the green off the Monk Corsair boss too

I am having trouble taking down diamond Djin, any tips?

Ecksor · Nov 29, 2006, 02:29 AM // 02:29

Make sure your scythe is customized, and 15% while enchanted, and if he casts Angelic Bond on a Sapphire Djinn, group the two together, and attack them at the same time.

like to point out that it actually is possible to kill him without customizing in case someone doesnt want to it just takes a long ass time
and depends on how often does he feel like using victorious sweep
sometime randomly he will skip it here and there i noticed
but then its probably easier just to do it with a customized

Etrik · Nov 29, 2006, 04:24 AM // 04:24

If there are 2, pull them till they're right next to eachother. If there's one, pull him so that he and another monster are next to eachother. Either way, if a DD is next to another monster and you're hitting both with your scythe, he casts Angelic Bond on that monster and thus takes damage from you hitting him + half the damage you do to the other mob. They're easy

And cldhearted, I didn't manage to lower his hp by more than a sliver after 3 mins.

underboss · Nov 29, 2006, 06:56 PM // 18:56

I've Killed Marobeh numerous times with my req. 9, ornate scythe, 20% enchant and 15%/-10 mod (and the bastard STILL hasn't dropped his green). Never had to customize it. However, I do agree, it does take a long time.

All I do is die once so that my hp is 58 and even dying twice is actually better and I make sure to kill him FIRST. Do not attack any other enemies, unless your scythe attack automatically hits the adjacent ones, which is fine. It takes about 5 minutes to kill him and then you can proceed to kill everyone else off.

By keeping everyone else alive, you shouldn't have any energy management issue or healing for that matter, and you can just keep pounding him with attacks while keeping echants up.

Quartermaine · Nov 29, 2006, 07:17 PM // 19:17

What is with people not using customized weapons....your missing our like 5-10 dmg per swing just cuz your to lazy to get a max collector scythe and customize it. Wielding a uncustomized weapon is a mistake I corrected back in beta.......

Well back on topic...very nice build idk how i didnt think of this sooner. Mystic regeneration ftw.

Nokkers · Nov 30, 2006, 04:27 AM // 04:27

could this build still work without essence bond and balthazar's spirit? i dont have prophecies, so thats why i'm askin. i guess energy management might be a prob, which would bring the dps down.

Kcp · Nov 30, 2006, 05:06 PM // 17:06

Get's the Godlike Satan stamp of approval. Fun build, gives ya something different to chew on.

Update to my post: You can solo shadow army in the FoW with this build as well.

Geppo il Pazzo · Nov 30, 2006, 05:53 PM // 17:53

Ty Etrik, unlock the skill in PvP and equip at command post^^

Ecksor · Nov 30, 2006, 11:03 PM // 23:03

woohoo! Satan's stamp of approval! I'll have to try FoW if we actually have favor later.
