Same as Rago's but 2 more energy:
+5 energy/20% enchant sword/axe/spear & 20/20 collectors focus

If you don't like 20% casting:
***+5 energy/20% enchant sword/axe/spear & Kindlerock (+1 20%, 20% recharge)***


First set you could get for 5-10k, 2nd set 15-20k.
Both are better than Rago's staff.
Both are MUCH better than Kepkhet's.

but still kepkets, is the cheap route, its only flaw is the dmg output being a monk staff....

its still got

Universal 20% chance recharge (will work for fire and water)
20% longer enchantments
+15 energy in all


and seeing as i dont even use the dmg of my staff, im good with it lol =]

i'm killing the trolls fine, but i'm getting 0-3 drops per run. Its not farm code either, this is my first run in around a week.


Any ideas?

Very nice build--thank you! I've been doing this as a Me/E with a lot of success. The anti-farming code tends to rain on my parade a lot, but it's erratic at best. Sometimes I get it after as little as 10 runs. Other times it rears its ugly head after 30 or 40 runs.

That being said, I'm very happy with the way that this turned out.

How you can fight the degen in GoK? There's like -10 degen and I die in few seconds.

quite simply? you use a different build. the main way is to use Aura of Restoration, since you'll be spamming lots of spells :P

When you enter the mission, follow the left wall through the fence to where Oink is. Behind the house next to Oink is a path that leads down the hill; at the bottom is a Hellhound and a few Grasping Ghouls will pop up as well. When you kill the Hellhound it spawns a large bunch of undead including Hounds, Ghouls, and 3 Zombie Warlocks.


One problem you might be having is that this build doesn't work as well for GoK

Try this:

Lava Font - Flame Burst - Rodgort's Invocation - Glyph of Sacrifice - Meteor Shower - Fire Attunement - Elemental Attunement - Aura of Restoration

At the top of the hill, use your 3 enchants. Run to the bottom of the hill, use Lava Font then Flame burst to kill the Hound and Ghouls. Keep spamming those as the big mob comes, they'll all die when they reach you. When the 3 Warlocks get in range, use Glyph of Sacrifice and Meteor Shower on them. Follow up with Rodgort's Invocation on them (sometimes they don't die from MS alone, whether through Dark Bond or just standing too far apart).

For a long long time now, my Ele and Monk have lain dormant.

My monk now 55s as a Mo/E at Elona, and it works.

My Ele never reached 20; I got bored at level 18 after spending over 60k on Hydromancer 15k armour (which until now, never saw use). Thank you my good man. You have given my ele purpose again. Im posting a video on youtube of my ele farming the trolls. At level 19, it took my exactly 9 seconds to kill the entire group of trolls (counting from start of meteor shower to my final spell ending and them all keeling over dead).

Awesomeness..got me from 18 to 20 rather fast :P

Glad you liked it. For everyone else who didn't check the first post, here is the video;

here

Dont Feel No Pain...AWESOME build.

Now I begin to wonder. With the speed bonuses granted by Armor of Mist, could this build be used to farm the Smites run in the UW if you use AoM to run PAST the Aatxe and lure only the Grasping's? They have low low health, and it could probably take them down before Mist Form ends. And the smites wouldn't be able to stop you from casting it.

It would sort of be a "last one left alive" contest :P

Also I noticed that sometimes, with the NEW Kephkets refuge, Mist Form's recharge is halved and it can be instantly recast.

Awesomeness

It would work but hte only thing that could hold you back is the grasping's.

1) They interuppt however not sure if their interuppt goes through mist form or not.

2) They suck your energy down like mad.


Other than those two possible issues then you are good to go. Hell has anyone tried this build on aatxes just for fun to see how much damage it can do to them? Might be able to take aatxes except they would run probably.

Yeah the build is a no go for UW. It's fragile in the sense that there's not much tanking except from the duration of Mist Form (which means kill under 20 sec or be killed). I like the buid, mixing attributes as in different elements is always a wonder to me =] Will have to get the skills to get my ele some exp. It's true that a solid hour of farming can net a nice profit, but then again a solid hour of farming trolls, minos, and GoK is so boring I dont think I could even hold the routine for more than a few runs of each. Pennies do add up though, I'll have to learn how to buckle down =]

Erm...Armor of Mist is a running skill as such. + 36 armor for me and 18 seconds of +33% speed. Get to the cave, farm it dry, and back to droks all under a minute roughly.
