Getting Oink to hold aggro
Right, everyone knows that 'secret' place behind the shed on Gates of Kryta, where huge numbers of undead spawn. I was thinking of farming that on hard mode, with Oink holding aggro and me with JI and Barrage making mincemeat out of the undead.
However, it's not working . I remember that I used to be able to use Oink to hold them in place while I barraged the crap out of them, but now they just run around Oink, or Oink decided t omove at the most inopportune moments, luring huge amounts of undead towards my ranger. Has anyone managed to get Oink perfectly in place for the bodyblock?

when you enter the mission go outside of the gates then when you see the undead coming and kill the farmers ahead of you go to the left...you will see a a little farm building go behind that and just keep going...you will see them no doubt about it.

I've been doing it fine.
I just run down slowly so Oink catches up. then trigger the spawn and Oink usually holds them in place. he occasionally moves making a couple of grasps run free but all you have to do is use a run skill (i use dodge) for a little and he takes aggro again.

you can also do this with a 55 monk using echo and soj. the timing is very tricky (only did it once) but they die relatively fast because of holy dmg

Bonetti's Defense
Cyclone Axe (adren builder)
Healing Signet
Defensive Stance
Pretty easy to use. Make sure to cover healsig with either Bonetti's or Defensive stance each time to avoid taking too much damage.

I've tried it with my 55 necro and Barrager Ranger and I've noticed that Oink holds aggro for around 15 or so seconds before running to me with a horde of angry ghouls and hellhounds behind him

Could A Dervish farm them, prehaps with Avay of Balthazar and tanking skills for holy damage, or using Zealous renewal, HoHF, and Balthazar rage for holy AoE, then end with Mystic sandstorm maybe.

I farm them because it is about a 10 minute run tops, and I get about 2k a run.
The build I use:
Mo/D
16 smite
11 divine favor (use +1 headpiece to get 12 when casting blessed aura)
8 earth prayers

I used to farm them with my mesmer back in the day, lots of dye drops.
Will try in HM with my monk but I would not mind that Ele build as well.
