In TopK you have recall. In ravenheart their are huge mobs. Same with Turai. Nahhhh there's more to this. That buid above is mainly for boss killin.

As I said: it's probably just a variation of the A/E shadow farmer. For each of those areas that I mentioned, you have a different variation. This would be no different.

30-40 pull on hm means either a) invulnerability, b) perma +25 speed boost...

Also, the enemies have to be reasonably close. Going on instinct here, it's probably a quick pull of 30-40 then one huge nuke, troll style (figuratively). Rezone and repeat. Not sure how that makes for a long run though...

npc's though... hmmm

You may be onto somethign actually. Pull that number of foes in 25 seconds or w/e. then trap them onto npcs? Then nuke?

As a thought, try Jaga Moraine out of Sifhalla. Walk out, Dark Escape to aggro the groups. Switch up your cast order a bit. I'd bet with some practice, you could easily aggro twenty of those things. Only catch that comes to mind is those dumb Auriochs. I'm also pretty sure the locations in the SS are Jaga Moraine, though there's no guarentee the guy actually farmed there or if he even has this farm that he speaks of. Gimme a chance to run around a bit.

i love how much of a dick people can be in this game. it makes it full of win.

angmar_nite · Nov 06, 2007, 12:12 AM // 00:12

I agree. Personally, I would never publish a well thought out summary of the farm. I would spread it via request using pm. But w/e all the more challenge for me!

remember the old vampire build? or more like rit spam? That was nice

Also, sun fired blank. Are there any snares or excessive degen?

Mr Pvper · Nov 06, 2007, 12:16 AM // 00:16

i still think superb charr carving and destroy core farming pwns most other types of farming XD. Just use some vwk build or something > _ >

Sun Fired Blank · Nov 06, 2007, 12:19 AM // 00:19

I'm fairly certain that he just hugs the rightmost wall from Sifhalla through Jaga Moraine, until he ends up where the Spectral Vaettirs are (as shown in both screenshots). I looked over the monsters there and I'm also pretty sure that he's using an A/E fire variant, not earth. I'll post more later.

«Ripskin · Nov 06, 2007, 12:26 AM // 00:26

You wont figure it out.

Seriously

Get on with your farms.

or the rabbits from hell cave. they ball up like no other there. i just cleared it, 60 foes..but personally..i think he's just RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing with everyone.

Edit: Those spectral vaettirs have IMMENSE elemental resistance. I can't imagine a build that would let them not run from AoE, in HM for that matter.

onerabbit · Nov 06, 2007, 12:36 AM // 00:36

Wheres the Hell Cave? =P

Xx_Sorin_xX · Nov 06, 2007, 12:41 AM // 00:41

very SE corner of drakkar lake. You'll see the rabbit run down the hole (a reference to alice in wonderland i imagine, as it turns to hell later). follow the rabbit to like 4 other rabbits and if you move around them for a few seconds they should turn hostile. then a whole bunch of mist, scourge, and the necro ones pop up. level 15 in NM. not sure in HM. then run around all over at the bottom and back up the way you came and more will spawn. there's a boss as well. mesmer IW if i remember.

Xx_Sorin_xX · Nov 06, 2007, 12:45 AM // 00:45

the red engine gored comes up whenver you say fu c k

mcsumo · Nov 06, 2007, 12:59 AM // 00:59

lol yeah i only worked that out the other day, having already copied and pasted RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO RED ENGINE, into some posts coz I thought it was funny.

Any way Rez I don't think you are fooling anyone. You wouldn't have gone to all the bother of blocking out your build, location and weapon set on those screens if they didn't give it away. You then wouldn't have deleted your post realising it gave it away. You also wouldn't goi out with your inventory full from another run to then kill 60 monsters in HM, only for the pics.

You are also still here trying to throw us off the scent. It is the rabbit cave, right number of monsters, right time frame to kill em, right next to a zone change thingamy. I just can't work out the build. Am thinking something like an A/E with SF and lots of burny knockdown stuff. But I think you would need a ward of stability or else get knocked down by SoJ. It has to be a quick killer, not perma shadow. Or else the SoJ and IW would kill you.

angmar_nite · Nov 06, 2007, 01:00 AM // 01:00

Could have the various visages.

And think of it this way... Even if we don't figure it out. We'll find some helluva nice places to farm.

ReZDoGG · Nov 06, 2007, 01:05 AM // 01:05

well, you guys should just go with the thread... I have ruined the whole point of it... oopz!

Well I could have just blacked it out for other reasons also... so people wouldnt think i was farmin in that area, or using that char, or using that build... when I was actually jus killing shit for Norn points and had them golds on a storage char. And I deleted it so no one else would keep talking about it!! or tryin to figure out some kind of mystery I have created... I could be just pulling your legs, or maybe not. Or just getting some kind of entertainment

But on to the thread topic, I would like to know other peoples farming areas.

I Luv Dp · Nov 06, 2007, 01:06 AM // 01:06

Maybe something like radiation field/ether nightmare. I don't know how much health they have or how much they ball up, but if they get hit by both of those, they could drop fairly quickly.

Also, don't the pop-ups from the bunny have IW? That would still kill you under SF.

mcsumo · Nov 06, 2007, 01:11 AM // 01:11

Yeah. There are lots on PvX wiki already. I am not a very good farmer though. I always get carried away with the challenge.

I remember farming for totem axes. It wasn't good enough for me to run past stuff. I wasn't happy until I worked out a build that could clear the entire falls area.

Same with GoK HM 55 runs, just running down the back for a few drops was no challenge. I had to modify the build until I could finish the mission and kill all the undead, including the 4 bosses. Still gutted I can't work out a way to beat those mergoyles

.

Anyway, by the time I figure this out it will be nerfed or everyone else will beat me to it and things will be worthless. But I would still be happy with that many golds, my main character is marching steadily on with the wisdom track. It doesn't5 help that my sin is still in Shing Jea and my ele hasn't made it to eotn yet.

Xx_Sorin_xX · Nov 06, 2007, 01:12 AM // 01:12

Alright so I'm not sure if that's where he farms or not, but this is how i think you could do this section. He lets the bunny run down the hill. Then uses shadow of haste, runs down the hill until they start to pop up and immediately hits Shadow Form, then runs around to get the rest of the pops up and then runs back up the stairs as far as possible before shadow form wears off and then cancel stances out of there.

I'm thinking that the vaettir's may all run down to ball up at this point, haven't tested because I don't have an assassin. Then, once they're all balled up, do the typical A/E Sliver farmer. With that many people down there, they would die very, very fast.

Again, I don't know if this is his farm, but this is how i'd do that farm, assuming they do all ball up. GL to anyone that tries it.

Edit: I Luv Dp is right. IW would own this. I'm not sure that that spot is possible. I can't think of a way to compensate with the lifestealing AND the IW.

angmar_nite · Nov 06, 2007, 01:25 AM // 01:25

sig of judgement too. Sigs go through shadow form. I'm thinking 55 AND sf?
