CoF running for 2.5k each, nets you 15k split between you and your smiter(hero), for 45 minutes. Then you sell your drops and you have yourself 20k+

wait so you just duo? No heroes or anything? I might have to look into that, mind showing me some time?

Correct. We sort of have a monopoly on running this mission+masters for people, so I generally only show guildies how its done. Other runners take heroes and MIGHT get masters while charging the same prices.... As I said, when building a group, the other runners tend to be the loudest yelling "scammer".

However, it's done with ele and we generally duo it (each one soloing 2 bosses). A 4 man ele runner team could do this mission in 2 minutes pretty easily. At 4 or 5k each for 2 minutes of work, this is the most profitable.....but we don't have a 4th and are on at different times, so we stick to duoing.

The build is pretty easy to figure out, but with that said, the run is 30% build, 70% technique.

could you give the elite? XD

sounds like a good business your running.

does it only work for that mission, too?

Ah screw it........we haven't been doing it much lately anyway.

Here tis:

Note: For normal mode you can use any earth staff of enchanting you want, for hard mode i suggest a shield with a "Like a Rolling Stone" inscription and "Of Devotion" shield handle with a +20% enchant sword or axe w/ "I have the Power" inscription.

All geomancer armor, highest vigor rune you can afford, minor energy storage, minor air, superior earth headpeice.

16 Earth Magic
10 Energy Storage
9 Inspiration Magic
4 Air Magic

[skill]Glyph of Swiftness[/skill][skill]Obsidian Flesh[/skill][skill]Sliver Armor[/skill][skill]Aura of Restoration[/skill][skill]Kinetic Armor[/skill][skill]Stone Striker[/skill][skill]Mantra of Earth[/skill][skill]Stoneflesh Aura[/skill]

Usage: Use Glyph of swiftness to maintain ob flesh. Maintain EVERYTHING at all times with the exception of sliver armor. In normal mode, maintaining kinetic is somewhat optional, but suggested to ease the run. If both Stoneflesh Aura and Obsidian flesh are ending at the same time, Obsidian Flesh has higher priority.....a second or five without stoneflesh is easily survived, ESPECIALLY if you have kinetic armor up.

One runner kills the turtle and kirin, the 2nd runner kills the dragon and pheonix.

They should be killed in this order
Necro (turtle)
Elementalist (dragon)
Monk (kirin)
Mesmer (pheonix)

This means runner one goes in the middle left portal, and runner 2 goes in the middle right portal.

It's a cakewalk until you get to the kirin. By this time, runner 2 should be waiting just outside of the pheonix boss's aggro. When runner 1 kills the kirin, an essence of kirin will spawn right by runner 2....plan for the knockdown. Runner 2 should kill that kirin before aggroing the pheonix boss. Once that kirin is dead, while waiting just outside the pheonix's aggro, time your enchants so that you use ob flesh and stoneflesh right after one another......then aggo the pheonix boss. Upon aggroing, DO NOT CAST ANYTHING! There will be kirins in the mob, which will knock you down at the same time......once they knock you down and you get up, cast Kinetic Armor. It has a 3 second cast time, which is perfect for drawing out the Pheonix's [skill]leech signet[/skill] Once she interrupts your kinetic armor, cast ur enchants again to maintain, and cast sliver armor ASAP.

Prior to casting sliver armor, you should be right next to her.

Generally the more experienced runner should take the pheonix, due to the higher difficulty. The runner who kills the kirin is advised to take "I am Unstoppable!" or [skill]Ward of Stability[/skill] to counter knockdown from the kirin boss's [skill]Signet of Judgment[/skill]

Have fun!

NOTE: For speed's sake, once you both spawn, you can run to the first bosses without obsidian flesh up (but WITH stoneflesh, stonestriker, and mantra of earth)...however, you must maintain ob flesh prior to aggroing those bosses.

NOTE2: It's more difficult than it sounds, but with practice it becomes very easy. It's about the only way I've been able to make 55k in 50 minutes on any given day. This includes selling the MASSIVE amounts of feathers you will collect along the way.

so you just keep all of those up, when you get to a boss you put up sliver?

does the boss die before sliver ends? If not, do you just have to wait 20 seconds before doing dmg?

n,ice build, guess i ll see a lot of runners within the next hours in naphui quarter

I just do it the regular way with a sin and 3sf heroes..

At 4 air magic, glyph of swiftness will work on 2 spells. I use it for ob flesh and sliver armor. The first couple bosses will take you 2 casts of Sliver armor. The kirin MIGHT take you 2 casts, and the pheonix should take you only one. Its like this simply because there will be bigger mobs as you defeat bosses.
