This build is posted to provide players with a reliable source of income in a clearly outlined format, and to demonstrate to Arenanet that the soloing of Guild Wars cannot be stopped without inflicting serious harm upon the balance of the game.

Mo/N
Designed to kill Desert Griffons and Minotaurs South-West of Augury Rock

Ascetic's Chest Design with a Superior Monk Rune applied. (Healing Prayers Recommended)
Ascetic's Arm Design with a Superior Monk Rune applied. (Divine Favor Recommended)
Ascetic's Leg Design with a Superior Monk Rune applied. (Protection Prayers Recommended)
Ascetic's Foot Design with a Superior Monk Rune applied. (Smiting Prayers Recommended)

Grim Cesta (-50 health)
(OPTIONAL)Weapon that increases the duration of enchantments

Skills:
Protective Spirit (Available at Amnoon Oasis)
Healing Breeze (Available at Ascalon City)
Signet of Agony (Available at Droknar's Forge)
Desecrate Enchantments (Available at Marhan's Grotto)
Spiteful Spirit (ELITE, Map Here)
Essence Bond (Available at Beetletun)
Balthazar's Spirit (Available at Lion's Arch)
Mending (Available at Yak's Bend)

Procedure:

Equip the Ascetic's armor, the Scalp Design with the Major Rune, and the Grim Cesta.
Allow yourself to be killed by the Devourer nearest the portal, dropping your health to 8 if done properly.
Cast Essence Bond, Balthazar's Spirit, and Mending on yourself.
Run a path around the area (see attachment 1), drawing and keeping aggro from as many Desert Griffons and Minotaurs as possible. As soon as the first monster engages you, cast Protective Spirit. Renew it as needed. Attempt to lose the aggro of any and all Rockshot Devourers.
Cast Healing Breeze, and renew it as needed.
Repeatedly cast Signet of Agony, Desecrate Enchantments, and Spiteful Spirit until the adjacent monsters are dead.
(OPTIONAL) If some monsters die far before others, switch to the Scalp Design with the Superior Rune applied. This will cause you to take less damage, due to Protective Spirit.
Allow yourself to be killed after collecting loot, and repeat steps 3-6, killing all remaining Desert Griffons and Minotaurs.

Flaws:
If more than 1 or 2 Rockshot Devourers are attacking, it becomes difficult to mantain a steady damage output, due to interruptions.
If Protective Spirit or Healing Breeze are interrupted, death is almost certain.
It is often difficult to hold the aggro of many Desert Griffons and Minotaurs.

If requested, I can post a working build to solo the Underworld.

solo uw takes way to long... u can do 3 duo runs in the time it takes to do one solo run. and plus solo u have liek a 70% chance of dying due to the lack of spell breaker...
