55 Necro does work here, all you have to remember is to recast PS each time after Mark of Supervision ends or PS will run out. Im still having a little trouble with Aloes but aside from that, HM is easy. Runs take about 15-20 min for me, yielding 100-200 dust

If the purpose is dust I'd also recommend HM "Hidden City of Ahdashim" (NF).
I used to run that one many times to max my LB using 600rit/smite duo (see elsewhere on Guru) and ended up with at least 1 stack of dust on each and every run.
Never got more dust then with this run.
Go for the Djinn's, they drop dust and the rest they drop salvages into dust, or occasionally, a ruby, saphire or diamond

Sounds good @ Silicon Based

But could u maybe explain the farm a little closer?
What foes do u farm, how long does it take, how many LB points and so on?

I can't answer all your questions but I can say that with 600/smite (Rit being my favorite ver.) (You can find the builds on pvxwiki) you can vanquish the entire zone. You might need an extra hero or two if you face any monk froggies but you can leave those @ the door and use the portal trick to bring them to you when needed. I know the Djinn and Ethers have a chance to drop dust but they also tend to drop vabbian shields, spears, etc. You can also get rare gems from salvaging geodes from the beetles down there. Just have to watch out for traps and pop ups. Not recommended for first timers.

Yes. Hidden City of Ashadim. 600/smiting all over Vabbi is generally a good thing, but you'll find the most djinn's in the Hidden City. I use the 600 build mo/me with [mantra of resolve] in it. Fun run and I've gotten a few really nice FDS's from here and good luck on the geode-->rare gem salvage.
