I tried farming those, but I must have something wrong cause i keep getting owned.

Balanced stance doesnt last long enough, and I got no other ideas... Help please?

PS: Yes, I did a search. Cant find it. There was a build long ago, but now it seems to be gone.

I think the problem is that the Hammer Wardens use skills that knocks down, right?

One solution is to bring another warrior skill to prevent knockdown.

"Dolyak Signet" lasts 8 seconds even without any points in strength and has a recharge of 20 secs, so you should be able to keep one of them up all the time.

However (and I don't know much about 55 builds) isn't the point to take damage? Because then you have a problem since both will reduce the damage you take.

What might be better is to go with Mesmer as your secondary and use energy/adrenaline degen on the mobs -"Ancestor's Visage" (or "Sympathic Visage if it's a prophecies char) should effectivly make it impossible for the melee mobs to have enough energy/adrenaline to use their skills.

Hope that might have been of some help (but as mentioned I'm pretty clueless about 55).

just take a plain 55 build with SoJ and Bonettis. be warned that you get a ton of material drops here so get ready to salvage materials. also never gotten a gold drop here.

Tanned Hide Squares and Fur Squares galore. I use the same build as Riken noted earlier with no problems. Casting SoJ before you run in usually helps against the knockdowns.

Are you soloing?

I go with henchies and smite them. I have a Mo/E, but I use a smite build and kill the wardens with ease.

I don't use a 55 build, but I suppose you can.

I get golds (using rit not 55, but still) just only about every 2nd or 3rd run. go mes secondary for visasge(s), after the trees drop their shout, move them to the casters, no energy for anyone, no adrenaline for devastating.

Am I missing something here? They have shatter enchantment.

Nvm.....I'm looking for a farming build for the mission.

How do you intend to farm something with Danika/Mhenlo dieing all the time around you?

For the explorable... 600 monk would work fine. Mo/Me using Elemental Resistance i guess. All they are are trolls with knockdown... if they can't charge adren... (surely that was a give away) they can't knock you over. I did it as an N/Mo (was bored) and was getting killed by wand attacks.... but SS tore through the warriors like nothing else.

Nope not the wardens in aborstone, they are the low level groups - there's only Ritualists, Warriors and Rangers there.

However the Dredge and Blood Drinker mobs will own most solo builds.

The Wardens groups can be soloed with different builds pretty easy, personally I use my W/Rt.

1 thing i've never understood... how does /Rit benefit a warrior?
