I forget who to give credit to, but I use the build he made up, which consists of a W/Mo doing pretty much the same thing. The reason why I use warrior primary is the armor. These videos don't impress me when i'm use to taking on about 12-15 mantle at a time. And if you set it up the right way, you'll definately have the mana to cover it all.

6+1 energy 11 healing 11 smiting
healing hands
zeolot
balth's aura
wraith
balth's spirit
healing breezehealing touch (replaced now with smite hex)
protection
balth's spirit

As for why E/Mo, it's easier to level. Instead of getting a group and healing them, I just spec'ed fire until i got to flesh golems and AoEd everything; took me less than 1 day to get to 20. M/Wo, in my opinion, is by far a better farmer in some situations, and E/Mo just ties it in most scenarios. I wish I could farm hill giants but their knockdown makes it really hard unless you have balanced stance, a warrior skill.

Default Flesh Golem Farming for Casters

Click here for video

Trick to getting around the dispel? Patience.

Sound makes the file to large using DivX compression. Find Da Rude's "Sand Storm" song I put in the background but had to take out.

Enjoy

ok, so now im stuck, i have a monk level...8-9 still in newb..because i cant decide on which to go with second prof, I wan't to be a good farmer, farm tones and thats where monk comes in, but in PvP i will be a healer. So, i almost done need a second profession, monk does everythin on its own....but i should anyway, dosnt effect anything, so should i go mez for the energy, war for the 2-3 skills good for farming...or ele for....?the signits?

any1 know if a W/Mo would be a good build for farming, because i just started a warrior and i havent chose a secondary yet, i got a lvl 17 E/r but it really sucks later in game because i cant stay alive long to get my hits in and such, so any1 know if i put a monk as my secondary can i still farm.

I farm with my w/mo. Only downside is that I run giants and mantle with separate builds. Against the 9 mantle at the beginning of Riverside, I just go full smite. However, against giants, I switch to to sword and mainly just use heals as I whack away.

Sever Artery
Gash
Final Thrust
Galrath Slash
Balthazars Spirit
Live VIcariously
Healing Breeze
Healing Hands

I use those skills (sword at 14, str at 10 and healing at 10) and I can take up to 5 white mantle at a time. One run (25-30 mins) normally yields about 2k when you sell all the items to the merchant).

Thought I may as well chime in.
Main is a 20 Monk. Don't use a secondary atm. Holy damage vs Undead equals double the damage or such, so I tend to do a few farming runs from Bergen Springs through to Black Curtain. Great way to get nice weapons and runes from younger guildies/alts and to make a solid amount of cash for buying things.
Plus I find it a fun challenge tbh.

1. Healing Touch
2. Orison of Healing
3. Shield of Judgement (knocks down and does 88 dam)
4. Balthazar's Aura (44 or so damage, plus can move around and this effect still hits)
5. Symbol of Wrath (60odd damage I think. Need to stay still)
6. Zealot's Fire (does 40 damage to everything around me each time i cast)
7. Mending (+4 regen constant with my 14 or so Healing Prayers)
8. Balthazar's Spirit (regain energy everytime something hits me, which is constant. So constant max energy)

[Edit:
Oh, am on alt at moment so can't check exact numbers.
Is like
14 Healing Prayers
12 Smite Prayers
5 or 6 left in Divine
something like that, can't remember exactly]

I hit 8, 7, 6. Wait for the group to run into a huddle, run it just into aggro range and hit 3. Get in close and hit 4, then 1, 2. 5 if needs be.
Moreso though, I run through the sorcerer/warlock/ranger groups outside Bergen, as i start to get some heavy aggro (12+ or so) I hit Shield of Judgement, then 4, 1, 2 when they all gather etc. Easy way to mass kill.

As this is a thread on farming, and not whether you think it's good/bad etc, anyone think of any high level Undead zones? I am onto Perdition now, and been trying to think back on some mass undead areas. Can't seem to find Phantoms again. So have been mass killing Fleshies, substituting Orison for Smite Hex. Any ideas appreciated.

Keep up the slaughter!

PvE mob tankish-slayer/farmer [2nd choice is for farming purposes]

*very good for killing mobs and if u need to farm, bonetti's + enfeebling + Victory is Mine! feeds ur capabilities well *

Posted this in another thread and I use it on enemies who do and don't have interrupts.

The technique is simple. Get surrounded by enough of them and let loose with a few hits and cyclone axe. You can try to cast enfeebling blood before hand but unless they're all on top of you, u won't get them all. [also when u cast it on all of them, u can use ViM! to get all ur hp and energy back]. While you're fighting, you simply do Cyclone Axe into Dismember, Axe Rake, Bonetti's Defense. At a whopping 9 seconds, you can simply just wait out the duration for both the stance, Enfeebling recharge and ViM recharge. [both fitting nicely at 15s each]. Mark of Pain should be done just as Bonetti's is about to end. As well as another Enfeebling Blood. ViM! again. Repeat as necessary. Very stable for use against large mobs of Desert enemies

My E/Mo switches between fire and smiting depending on the mood I'm in, but he can farm with either one with equal success. So in response to Kitn about the E/Me, I can take 6 of the white mantle on at once with just fire spells.

12+2 Fire Magic
10 Energy Storage

(I haven't done the 2 15 point attribute quests yet)

Flare
Firestorm
Meteor Shower
Fireball
Flame Burst
Inferno
Aura Of Restoration
8th slot... doesn't really matter

Just use Aura Of Restoration, select one of them, aggro them, start casting Meteor Shower before they get to you, then Firestorm immediately after, then Fireball, then Flame Burst, and if they're still alive Inferno. The Aura Of Restoration will keep you alive as long as you start casting Meteor Shower before they're on top of you. (A Minor/Major/Superior Vigor may help, too..)

The bad thing is they all have to get knocked down by the Meteor Shower or it can mean you're screwed. (you can try packing Earthquake in the 8th slot, but Meteor Shower and Earthquake cause exhaustion, so..)

To reply to KrobJ's post: I have a warrior/monk with:

- Balthazar's Spirit
- Zealot Fire
- Symbol of Wrath
- Balthazar's Aura
- Mark of Protect {E}
- Reversal of Fortune
- Orison of Healing
- Healing Breeze / Retribution

You say you don't want healing skills, so Mark of Protection is the obvious Elite skill to use with 12 mantles? I manage to kill these easily as long as I don't lag and I cast Mark of Protection as late as possible

well i got W/Mo i got:


Im:
8 Healing Prayers
9 Smiting Prayers
6 Protection Prayers
11+1 Tactics


Gladiators Defence (Elite)
Bonetti's Defence
Orison Heal
Zealots Fire
Sheilding Hands
Symbol of Wrath
Healing Breeze
Mending(+3)

Mainly i can hold and kill solo 8-10 white mantle with easy. Using Symbol/Gladiators Defence first run when you got agro. When it runs out Bonetti's Defence is usually up so pop that insta power back. I let that go for a few seconds. Then casting Zealots Fire, i cast Healing breeze and then cast Orison of Healing when ever its up and does 13-15 dmg to all the mobs, then use Bonetti's till Symbol/Gladiators is up then repeat
