I used to farm UW solo with a basic necro 55/ss build. That one is definatelly dead (for UW) now because rend enchantments casting time was decreased to one second. Can't kill the dying nightmares with two hits cuz your enchants are gone before you 2nd hit lands.

Oh well, guess I'll have to take my warrior.

55hp Spoil Victor boss farmer works great.

I have to say, I used to be obsessed with my 55, but I don't use him all too much anymore.. I use my ele more than him because of the new builds that have been coming out, great boss solo builds, and you can kill way faster with ele, and you don't have to worry about spamming prot. spirit and HB, no enchants to maintain, etc.

55 isn't dead, but it certainly isn't the 'class of choice' anymore... A-Net has nerfed most of the 55 places, and the ones that haven't been nerfed have been nerfed by the players, meaning they farmed it so much it doesn't drop crap anymore (cough.. trolls.. cough...)

i will agree with that almost 100%... 55 definatly isnt 'class of choice' anymore but can still do plenty of farming and can continue to if ppl just try stuff out... if we all work together we can keep the 55hp spirit alive forever!!!

*pictures a huge rejoice of 55's, then the nerf bat hits a homerun* :P

Not dead at all....still lots of viable AND effective builds out there. Soloed tons of bosses with 55+IW+scythe, still efficient. If you can't come up with a good build, then sure its inefficient, but thats how it is for everything else..

Off topic: I get this idea that people think if you can't copy and paste builds to farm with, then that type of farmer is dead....

My monk as a 55 is not dead, I can still solo UW with her fast, even the Aatxes.
I use a Mo/Mes IW build, but I use a scythe to hit more than one foe at a time (up to three) and throw in some SV/SS, and your fine, that leaves 5 skill slots for the basic 55 skills (a.k.a Mending, Prot Spirit, HB/SoA, Balths, Essence...etc)
