Default FTF - Fiery Troll Farmer

Hey guys, made this build last night as all i ever hear about is 55 and riposte farming the trolls. So if you have a fire elemantalist and would like to earn some cash, try out my build.

This is my first build ive made that actually works efficiently, so please dont flame me too much but feedback is appreciated

Profession:
E/Me

Attribute:
16 Fire (12+3+1)
10 Energy Storage (9+1)
9 Water

Skill Template:
1: Arcane Echo
2: Mist Form (E)
3: Glyph of Lesser Energy
4: Meteor Shower
5: Flame Burst
6: Phoenix
7: Lava Font
8: Fire Attunement

Equipment:
Armour doesnt really matter.
Weapon i use an Insightful 20/20 Staff with +1 20% Fire Magic.
*20% Enchantment Wrap is a possibility if you want to drop Water to 6 (13 Seconds) for an extra point in Energy Storage, completely upto you.*

How it works:
From Droknar's forge leave for Talus Chute and head North West to the Troll cave. If any Avicaras are there, try go around them. If they aggro, just run upto cave entrance and they will leave you alone.

1: When at cave entrance cast Fire Atunement then Arcane Echo.
2: Run into cave and aggro all the trolls there, wait for them to get close and Cast Mist Form.
3: Cast Glyph of Lesser Energy, then Meteor Shower, Flame Burst and Phoenix.
4: Your Mist Form will be about to end so cast it again from the Arcane Echo.
5: As the Trolls disperse, large groups will run back at you, as they do, simply cast your recharged damage spells as they get close.
6: If any trolls are left, simply use Mist Form again and finish them off.

Possible Problems:
Only problem i have is when Avicara are very close to entrance to cave. You can take out Lava Font and replace it with Windborne Speed to get past them BUT when fighting the trolls you will have to run away on a last couple using Windborne Speed and wait for Mist Form to recharge before going in and finishing them off. Its best to /resign if you get a terrible spawn.

This aint anything special or groundbreaking, but its a pretty fast, effective and different way to solo farm trolls for those without 55's.

Happy Hunting!

Well I think PvP and PvE are just different games altogether. However PvP does require more fast thinking, reflexes, stratagy (and lower ping.) Its more like RTS-FPS while PvE you have time to think more like Chess. There are many common factors to both gameplays but I dont think a warrior who just plays PvP running frenzy at a margonite cleric is going to last long against his buddies, and a warrior from PvE isnt going to capture the alter in HA when hes running Live Vicariously, vigorous spirit, tripple chop and cyclone.

1) This build is really kinda old
2) It's in the wrong forum
3) 2 mins of searching will give you a build by that really nice dude who shared the build that clears the room in 15 seconds

I'm sorry if it sounds mean but it's true and could have been prevented.

Ah, sorry, i did look through the build directories yesterday but i didnt see the one similar to mine, spotted it now.

I did make this build 100%, just to defend myself, whether a similar build was posted ages ago is irrelevant.

I thought elementalist builds went into elementalist forum? If not then this forum is way too confusing with too many sections.

elementalist builds go in this forum but ALL farming builds go in the farming one. don't really see how it has too many sections when its pretty much just one sub forum for each profession plus some misc topics.

You don't need to echo Mist Form. I made a build you might want to take a look at where you can kill them before they run off.
