Actually i farmed a lot with this method, but i didn't even see a green dropping. The henchmen are grayed out, i get the max xp for bosses, and they drop a lot of useless stuff. I can't imagine what's the problem.

In factions i farmed greens too, and i know it shouldn't take so much times to get one. I have missed something, anyways i would see if anti-farm code triggers. soo... unlucky

Nothing is totally useless, maybe some lower stuff Id salvagefor materials(usually under 50g), or just merch some stuff I dont want. Been doing alot of that lately, as Im rapidly running out of room.

heres my idea for keeping the boss alive long enough for you to run away and reflag, use grenths balence on the boss when you have full hp, heals him, then you run away/retarget

what I've learned is that unless you post a step-by-step build for each and every boss, including all skills, armor, attributes, and weapons, then put up a video, people will still ask to be handheld. Some of my pm's have been hilarious. And it's obvious from some of the replies on page 2 here that some people still don't understand the basic concept of this.

Anyways over the weekend I farmed out about 15 different greens (and many multiples of the ones I believe to be valuable).

Gave this a try just now in sorrows furnace just to see if I could get it to work. Three yakslappers in three tries (yes I know it's crap but it's close to start). Best way to do this is with a MM, get 10 minions up and running one the way and you're laughing. Nice find.

this is a nice way to exploit the hench AI.

For those of you who can't kill the boss by yourself, try this build

E/N
Grenth Balance {e}
crystal wave
teinai crystal
obs flame
4 other slots for defenses or more attack skills..

just let the boss take your hp down and use grenth balance, when your hp get below 200 after GB, just spam the 2 crystal waves... there easy kill of the boss

Good luck in green hunting

Anyways I did some testing last night, and like everyone else says, this works great. So I say we start putting down boss locations and basic builds. Here's what I've got so far:

Chor the Bladed (War boss)
Location: Marga Coast, head out from Dajkah Inlet, take your immediate left and follow the wall on the right, and he'll be right there
Build: super easy, auspicious parry/riposte/deadly riposte, that's all you need

Dabineh Deathbringer (Paragon boss)
Location: Sunward Marches, head out from the Sunspear Outpost, just hug right and he'll be right there
Build: same auspicious/riposte build as above

Enadiz the Hardheaded (War boss)
Location: Arkjok Ward, outside Yohlon Haven, to the right and ahead, among a ton of insects
Build: same auspiciious/riposte build

Eshau Longspear (Dervish boss)
Location: Arkjok Ward, just a bit east of Enadiz
Build: Sword war Grenth's build. I was going Grenths, Dolyak, Gash, Final thrust, just those skills, but some more sword skills would speed it up a bit.

The nice thing about killing off the mobs with your heroes/hench is that anti farm won't trigger as fast as if you only repeatedly kill the bosses.

So I'd like to see other people's boss/build finds!
Great builds there!!! Now I combined grenths and riposte builds to go out and kill both Eshau and Enadiz. Eshau still a little time comsuming tho. Here is what i used: Grenths, riposte, deadly riposte, bonettis (to use healing signet), Doylak, sever artery, gash, and healing signet. this one works for me but feel free to comment on it. BTW, thank you very much for the builds

who has or thinks they can get to the end of tombs with heros and henchies? if you could all you need is a build that could solo the last bosses, easier said then done but I've seen some amazing soloer's in guru (u guys know who you are). though not really worth it other then for the challange but think all the greens would be for u!

Mahto Sharptooth (warrior boss)
Location: Sunward Marches, head out from Dajkah Inlet, take a left and follow the path all the way to the pond. U have to fight many foes to get there.
Build: Same Auspicious parry/Riposte build.
Hint: I personally go out to get Deathbringer, then go and get Sharptooth. lol

Might as well share my farm spot lol. Right outside the Chantry, go for the Dervish boss Suli. He drop's Suli's Scythe (Duhhhhhhhhhhh). Quick and easy run that has netted me 3 of his scythes so far.

Then I heard about Mhedi's Vow (An even better zealous scythe) and am not so happy anymore lol
