Cool Storm Kin and Wind Riders

I'm interested in a solo W/Mo or W/X build that would work well for farming/taking down these nasty mesmer creatures, in the falls with a possible totem axe included, and in the desert just for these creatures only. Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Wouldnt a normal Totem axe farm kill the wind riders as well? And whats the point of farming in the desert? Do they drop anything good..? O_o

in the falls, when I try to pull one wind rider to me with a bow....usually at least 3 come in, and I'm having a hard time getting them with the different totem axe builds I've tried. Then I came across huge #'s of these Storm Kin in Salt Flats, so I was just wondering if someone had an effective build against them. More curiousity than anything, because of their interrupting and life degen skills.

If their Conjure Phantasm is killing you (which i assume it is), then I'd go W/Mo and take spell breaker. Dont know how well it will work because it's divine favor and you dont have that... Sacrifices your elite slot too.

when i totem axed farmed, i used the W/R build from Guild Wiki, with a few different skills, but the just of it works fine, with Trolls Ungent, Healing Sig, and Melandrus Resilience, works fine. with Sever Artery and Gash for your sword attacks. taking on 3 at a time was a "breeze" for me, lol. but taking on any more than 5 or 6 can get tricky. so, guild wiki, W/R, melandru's resiliance, that'll hook you up.

To take on those mesmers, become a W/R.

Melandru's Resilence is the best defenes you can get.

Healing Breeze - shattered
Troll Ungent - interupted (Cry of Frustration)

The more hexes (Conjure Phantasm, Ethereal Burden, etc.), the more healing for you.

Apply Poison and swirling Axe them to death. They have no defense vs conditions (or use sever artery and gash).

You could also just tank them, Doylak + good damage attack and use Healing Signet and Endure Pain.

Thanks for your good input guys...I think I'll play around with the W/R idea a bit.....ranger was my original secondary anyway so it'll be fun to go back to that for a bit. Melandru's sounds like a good idea.
