is there a build for an A/N to do this? can't think of anything, and I'm not keen on testing builds on a survivor :P

I don't really see whats so ground breaking about this tbh farming this spot is quite old and getting your survivor to this point is quite a bit harder than most think. It also has the flaw with any of the farming builds to obtain legendary survivor one good lagout and your done.

I used to do this run before the loot-scaling nerf. The only issue with this is the slight chance of death for those going for survivor.

An errant trigger of 10+ traps, a mis-positioning of your rock, back attack from the Giants...might cost you a death.

A nice way to gain quick exp though

Ofcourse, if you've a lag out, you are screwed. BUT with the bonder you won't die in 10 seconds or so. It's definitely one of the fastest way to get your survivor. You don't waste like 30 hours if you die

no need to add me justed wanted to mention it xD
sry ...lootscling still not realized xD
but imo he steels gold drops still..


wiki:

"Shortly after the release of the hard mode, loot scaling has been slightly adjusted by causing tomes, scrolls, dye, rare materials, Domain of Anguish gemstones, gold level rarity items, unique items, and Special Event items to be excluded from the new system."

hrhr..am i right?

I like using ranger secondary on my bonder - stick some points in beast mastery and symbiosis

Description: Create a level 1/8/11 Spirit. For creatures within its range, for each Enchantment on a creature, that creature's maximum health is increased by 27/125/158. This Spirit dies after 30/126/158 seconds.
Energy Cost: 5.
Casting Time: 5 seconds.
Recharge Time: 60 seconds.
Linked Attribute: Beast Mastery. Increases spirit level, duration, and health gained.
Skill Type: Nature Ritual.

With 6 enchants on you can have an extra 750 health and be fully bonded and massive health regen.

Just make sure you cast symbiosis close enough that you get the effect and recast before it runs out.

How would a survivor monk pull this off? do we have to have a running skill? b\c Mo/N have no running skills.

If you're going for Survivor this isn't necessarily the easiest nor best place to do it. No doubt it's a great XP farm, but it's by no means safe to do without risking your title, nor easy to get to without help.

Try the Legendary Survivor Guide...dead easy with any Mo/X and X/Mo. Doable with any class with the right bonders and AL.

Nightfall characters can get there easily once you've completed The Time Is Nigh. Prophecies characters can get a run to Lion's Arch and jump the boat to Kaineng. Factions characters wind up there after completing Shing Jea missions.

And thanks to Witte Was for posting creds to my thread in the op
