Any necros farming destroyer cores solo? Been looking for vids here and there but have not found any. Just wondering... on my way to give it a go. Let me know if anyone has, i'd like to know what builds you are using. I have several to try.

Im farming Destroyers, not 'solo', but with a full H/H team.

Ive been running: MM (me) + 2x SS + an anti-melee mesmer. Just go very very heavy on anti-melee hexes and conditions.

I spread Bleeding, Poison, Disease, Weakness, Blindness and Cracked Armor, along with SS (x2), RH (x2), MoP (x2) and Well of Darkness.

It takes about 15m to finish GC, but we always finish and hardly anyone ever dies. We never wipe. I usually get 3-5 cores a run plus a Cloth of the Brotherhood.

Normal Mode, not HM.

Go in normal mode, grab 2 monks as bonders, maybe go n/e and use the stone flesh thingy to make you take 0 damage. Then just ss them all to death. I would assume it'd work pretty evenly.

Would anyone mind posting the build they find effective? The SS build or whatnot? May be useful to me and other players alike
