Think of your own, here are some pointers:

How can you stay alive against that many mobs?
Where can you get a lot of monsters at the same place?
What are undead weak against?

That should help you a lot.

I've been easily solo-farming the undead hordes in Gates of Kryta, using Oink to tank and a dual attunement nuker build for the damage.

i've been using my SoJ 55 monk... Starting of at bergen hotsprings working my way through nebo terrance into the cursed lands and clearing everything out there. Usually get about 25-35 Emblems per run and it doesn't take that long. Been getting alot ofd gold weapons and dyes to... Pity the weapons ain't max but some of the mods o them are tasty.

The only enemies who sometimes scatter are the mini grasp things and hellhounds but they come back a die straight away as your hitting them for 106 health due to holy dmg. Sourcers and warlocks can be a pain and may require 2 rounds of SoJ, but most will go down without a bother. The Rangers and necrid Horseman die in seconds...

Really? I beg to differ.

So does this scene. They may run from it, but they can't hide. Couldn't be bothered to wait for the 2 patrols so the group is a bit smaller than normal and the Hellhounds hadn't started using Frenzy at that point. but 212 SoJ + 2x 104 Balth = Dead very soon.

Ive got it guys, Thanks, this run has become wayy too easy, ive been using a standard cyclone/triple chop build, swapping breeze for Judges insight.

Another variation ive done is using a Barrage/Judges ranger. I just kil lthe 2 groups at the beginning, take oink down with me, and they all get glitched on him, slap judges, and in a couple barrages, they all go down

I use a fire/earth Ele and roast them...
one run takes about 3 minutes. how fast are the monk or Warrior builds?

I guess 4-8 emblems per run are the usual drop

One run, killing guys at the beginning and clearing the hill, is about 4-6 minuts for my ranger, and i average about 8 emblems on her, for some reason on my war it averaged about 11+ emblems per run.

so far today, ive netted a white dye, a black dye, 2 brown dyes, purple dye, orange dye, blue dye, and silver dye. merch all the drops, even without identifying,because its not worth the identification price, id blues golds and purples. and sell sell sell, ive accumulated stacks of bones and dust.

Oink! is what I must say...
He agros all enemies and doesn't die
Get a good AoE spell (yes, you can use it!) or any other multiple enemy killing spell (I use barrage for my ranger).
Works really well and can be done in under 5 min.

Take a Ritualist for farming with VwK echo achensors rage and spirit rift. Also GwT is handy when those ghosts appear and spike you with some bad lightning damage. I did this and in 30 minutes I got around 35 emblems.

In the last couple of days since the halloween event started, I farmed over 900 Orr Emblems. I farmed most of them at the Gates of Kryta, the person who suffer from bad degen, use Oink, cause there is a bug that when Oink attack the Undead, they won't attack you neither Oink at all and will be a easy as hell target to mass detruct them.

First I went with a VwK build in there which was easely do-able, and afther I found the Oink vs Undead bug, I made my Rit totally channeled with some close range channeling skills and you can easely farm over 25 emblems in less then 10 minutes. Just go in, get Oink, take the backyard door, walk downstairs, run around to let them spawn and there ya go. As long Oink has them all in range, they will freeze and be an easy target, even the Anti-farm update won't work.
