Credit for the build goes to Stee Janz, it's the one he used for Ghial the bone dancer which i have just changed one skill on.
This is so easy to do that i thought i should post it as it is a good beginers place to learn farming.
You can get Lians Lantern from Lian Dragons Petal but as of yet she has not dropped it once for me out of a hell of a lot of runs.

Armour is Glads with a +1 strength helm

Weapon set and attribute points

You dont really need the shield, i was doing it with a collectors shield at first that had req9 tactics, which i didnt have so i didnt get the +16 armour but it didnt make it any harder.

Location of Lian

skills

Sever Artery
Gash
Galrath Slash
Final Thrust
Tiger Stance
Doylak
Healing Hands
Mending

As you approach her on the map take out the group of 3 knights first.
Then the best thing to do if you are having trouble with this is get Lians group to chase you back to the portal for market place, as once you get close enough to the portal they stop chasing and just stand there and dont attack.
Then just go and stand behind the wall of the steps so the casters cant hit you and the knight will come down and fight you.

Then go up and take the ritualist out first then the other 2 casters and then lian.
The good thing about doing it this way is that sometimes i find the casters bug out, the ritualist sometimes just runs off back to where they originally were and the others dont bother attacking even when i am attacking them.

If you have the hang of doing it you dont need to run all the way back, just hide behind the first obstacle you can find so you are out of the casters line of sight and fight the knight.

The other good thing is the place is swarming with jade knights,mesmers,rits and mages and they can all be taken down with ease and you get 100xp each!!
I get absolutely loads of runes from armours and the odd Gold one aswell, lots of purple weapons and the ocassional Gold, Loads of materials and rare materials, i would think around 10k+ a hour is easily attainable the way stuff has been dropping so far.
You can take on groups of 3 knights with out any trouble, 3 mages (not ran into 3 rits yet which may be a problem) biggest group i had was 2knights 2 mesmers 2 mages and a rit.

Also on this run i have bumped into another green dropping boss Shen the Magistrate

Havent quite managed to take him down yet as he seems hit me with high damage spells and wipe me out, so if anyone has any ideas on how he could be taken out post them.
Here is the Wiki entry on him and the skills he uses

hope this makes sense as i suck at writing up things like this, but thought i best give something back for once
