Hey Guys,

ive been looking on pvx and here for some tips or complete builds to farm in the Burning Forest in Sacnoth Valley in EotN
nothing found , so i started to experiment some myself

the build i have so far exists out of :

Water Magic 16
Energy Storage 12
a 4 piece Pyromancer armor + vitea and attunement runes
5th piece (leggings) survivors + superior vigor rune

Skills : OgNiwwLM5O0OhDeNYN8OANQLA

[Armor of Mist][Frigid Armor][Intensity][Maelstrom][Ice Spear][Ward Against Harm][Water Attunement][Aura of Restoration]

used with a Flint's Fleshcleaver and a Shatterstone + Bosun's Focus

so far i had a lot of fun killing Flowstones, these go down pretty easy on this build,magma blisters are a bit tougher already but it works
a group of 3 Burning spirits is an ''Yes/No'' i tested it with 11% Dp xD so might work aswell
except the master of the forest is my total breakdown
Borrguus comes to almost half of his life till they knock me down
i do run out of energy pretty quick, and i dont use armor of the mists that much
also was thinking of putting in Choking Gas instead of Mealstorm

any tip is appreciated!

if you have a necro, i know a basic 55 SV with the new Spirit Bond (Yay!) can clear out the forest, including Borguus. however, if you want to stick with being an ele, permanent Obby Flesh might be a good idea, plus earth skills, using either Mantra of Earth or Balthazar's Spirit for energy and possibly Sliver armor to kill.

if you want to stick with Water, i'd still run a Water + Earth Hybrid - perhaps Frigid Armor + Armor of Earth (for elemental damage) + Stoneflesh + Sandstorm/Ob Flesh/Ele Attunement/whatever?

(just throwing ideas around here, i've never tested that forest on an ele)

thnx for the reply,

i was also thinking of using that Stone Striker/obby build
i just wanted to try something out with water since its works perfectly on fire elementals

think im gonna try that Water/Earth Hybrid, sounds promising and its better versus the regular damage they do, thats the killer
i dont find any damage from their most dangerous attack ,Searing Flames
its only the Flame Djinn's Haste , Glowing Gaze (and those are already reduced with damage thanks to the Ward) and 5 burning spirits using Melee Bash on me

also found this build : [OgVUMs0qYmMGgSxW9rOEDGl1lA]
think im gonna try that one aswell

replace w-attunement for mantra of flame. damage reduction and energy gain.
replace intensity with arcane echo to echo Maelstrom.
possibly replace ice spear with ether feast for some added healing if aura isnt powerful enough.
Looks interesting. Thats cool that it works. If you just want to farm definitely go with the obby flesh and all that mess, but this is something original and i say roll with it. Hope these tips help

perhaps if you use the obsi flesh tank and replace the fire skills with water skills?

like
Obsi flesh
glyph of swiftness
stoneflesh aura
mantra of flame
maelstrom
deep freeze
ice spear
Vapor blade
etc

Surprised it hasn't been asked yet....drops any good?

well i tried the obbi build (theone with Serpents Quickness and Storm Chaser so an E/R) but i get totally slaughtered, its fine when its like 3 or 4 on me, but the less there are, the more energy i need and the Troll Unguent isnt really workin on me, Flowstone Elementals are okay, but the magma blisters and the burning spirits are a bit harder
in this build was also stone striker and mantra of earth
i saw someone else posted to chagne to Mantra of Flame
that idea works pretty good actually, that might give me an extra slot for a skill since (except for the psychical damage) the rest is already fire damage

a little update on my own build the one posted in the top

its works pretty good only i need more energy, thats my biggest problem
i can avoid the searing flames spam this way so thats the biggest problem solved (one that obsidian flesh also has)
i also tried the stupid E/A green farmer build but the Flame Djinn Hastes finishes that quick

echo'ing mealstorm might be a possibility but that only gives me 20 more seconds ( 10 seconds interrupt) and -50 energy for those 2 (+18 energy if Water Attunement is on)since energy is the biggest problem , i dont think that will work, thats why intensity is already in there, to power up the mealstorm and let my Ice Spear be stronger for the last period of time after mealstorm (i spam it constantly untill Intensity wears off)

How are you getting there? I've tried running from Gunner's and it zones into Char's-ville; no flowstones to be seen. Couldn't run from the other town, are you bringing Henchies to distract? or fighting your way?
