I do the same farm, but with Ranger/Ele, using 15-16 specc'ed EoE and 14 specced Sandstorm.

I use:
Troll
Storm Chaser
Optional (I bring Stone Daggers)
Stoneflesh
EoE
Glyph of Ele Power
Sandstorm
Earthquake

Storm Chaser past the beastie group. Troll if you got Conjure put on you.

Get to the rock, Put Stoneflesh up, Spawn them, then run back past the boss and wait for them to bunch, if they happen to hit you while you are running past, troll to stop the conditions while you wait.

Aggro them, hide between the cliff there, Set up EoE, Use Glyph->Sandstorm then go into Earthquake. Earthquake hits just as they start to run out of sandstorm aoe keeping them planted there just long enough for EoE to rape them as they try to run. Theres the off chance that Fastfoot survives (like 1 in 20) but he'll have like 20 hp or less left so just duck out and dagger him up once.

Its safer because they arent actually hitting you (obstructed because of cliff), and EoE finishes off all the random ones that you had to finish off with Daggers :\

The same thing can be done with Ele/R, You'll have a stronger Sandstorm/Earthquake but a weaker EoE - it should equal out.

Nice build. I've been playing around with it for awhile; even just adding up the normal drops, you make about 15k an hour. Unfortunately, I think it might only be another week or two before the green bows become the Shreader's Talons of Elona.

Also, I agree with Former Ruling that this is a good place for Edge of Extinction. You can shed 30 seconds to a minute from the run with it. As an E/R, it's hard to get enough into Beast Mastery to kill the boss outright; so, this is what I run:

Edge of Extinction
Run as One
Sandstorm {E}
Sliver Armor
Obsidian Flame
Glyph of Restoration
Stoneflesh Aura
Armor of Earth

Earth Magic: 16 (12 + 3 + 1)
Energy Storage: 9 (8 + 1)
Beast Mastery: 10

I usually run through the first group of Nephilia towards the shrine. Let them group up with the rest, so that you only need to fight one battle. Then, put the Extinction spirit down on the bridge, cast your armor enchantments, and aggro the mob. Use Sandstorm, then approach and hit Sliver Armor. Throw an Obsidian Flame on the boss and stay near the Nephilia when they scatter from the Sandstorm. That usually does it.

If you're having trouble with the boss, let Sliver Armor work on it a bit more and re-cast Obsidian Flame as necessary. Finally, use Glyph of Restoration to fight the bleeding and poisoning -- don't worry about it too much though, the best approach is to simply kill everything fast and heal later.

You'd rather there be 8 threads, "Ranger FastFoot Farm", "Warrior FastFoot Farm!", etc...

No, I think 1 is enough...

These are very easy to kill anyway...with any class really. If you are straight fighting them you have to worry about -7degen, but theres a ledge there where you can hide behind and just AoE them if you don't have to be up close.

Whether this or the Haven bugs are better for consistent farming is really not calculated yet...Haven has alot more bugs but you have to prepare builds considering all the bug types (monks, warriors, etc). This has less bugs but they are all the rangers and theres the chance at the green that adds to the hourly profit.
