I think there's not a best farmer proffesion, because each proffesion can do something better then others.

Ritualist = mass farmer, fast kills, big time AOE like dmg with channeling and mesmer is a good 2nd for resistance and energy management
Warrior = slower farmer but can take loads stronger enemies then a Ritualist can handle.

In Tyria I farm a lot with my Ritualist/Mesmer which can fairly kill anything that come on her path as well it can be farmed even quicker then I ever saw a warrior farming something, a Ritualist in Tyria is just totally unbalanced.
I also tried to farm greens with my Ritualist, but I didn't succeed on that yet, those bosses are to strong for a weak Ritualist with almost no armor compared to a warrior. They totally depend on there skills and energy to keep them up.

This is what I know so far from experience, btw if someone know a good Ritualist build for farming bosses for greens, I really want to know that.

Tyria:Warrior and Ranger

Factions:Ele,Ranger and Assassin

Nightfall; Ele, Dervish, and a Mesmar


I would say Elementalist for Factions and Nightfall, fastest Green farmer there is. Also he can solo Dijnn etc for Ruby's etc.

Well now that Stone Striker has been introduced, E/R can solo pretty much everything except for mobs that use Chilliblains / Avatar of Grenth / Intimidating Aura.

A warrior generally has a wider range of farming possibilities because of the nature of their farming builds. However, their builds are also a little bit slower than other builds, but they make up for this with the amount of things possible to farm.

Tyria - Necro or Monk 55's
Factions - Ele by far
Nightfall - Ele

The reason for the ele's in the last 2 campaigns is shadow form coupled with Sliver Armor. AI flee doesn't affect the farming since they are dead before they run. And when Shadow Form isn't usable for a certain area you go as a 55 E/Mo with Sliver and Glyph of Renewal [E]. That said there aren't too many bosses in the game i haven't been able to solo with my ele or warrior or monk or necro. Just a preference thing for which is better.
