im trying to convert my war to a VWK farmer but i dont have the elite or any money and havnt reached that place in factions yet.

so im giving farming a elite tome a try.

Does anyone know any good spots+builds in NF/Factions?

Thanks in advance

prob the best spot will be alem, you find him if you go to the monolith temple

VitisVinifera · Nov 28, 2007, 08:44 PM // 20:44

definitely alem, can farm ss/lb at the same time, but you'll have to do it h&h

niek2004 · Nov 28, 2007, 08:51 PM // 20:51

what build to use on him?

once again thanks

Shadow Own · Nov 28, 2007, 08:56 PM // 20:56

take junundus.. 3 heros can do it.. you wont need more. solo will be alot harder

so he drops them a lot? doing it with 3 heroes will reduce your chances of getting 1

There is no difference between farming one Rt boss in HM compared to another for tomes, all of them have the same chance of dropping Elite tomes, with that said it'd be best to do the most repeatable farm in the shortest of time, for that reason I'd recommand Tomton Spiriteater using the Ele/Assassin build if you got an ele (http://www.pvxwiki.com/wiki/Build:E/A_Solo_Green_Farmer), each run is less than 2 mins if done correctly plus you'd go without any hero/henchmen, so all drops will be yours.

I, too, should definitely recommend an easily reachable boss like [wiki]Tomton Spiriteater[/wiki], [wiki]Flower Spiritgarden[/wiki], [wiki]Ritualist's Construct[/wiki], [wiki]Lieutenant Kayin[/wiki] or [wiki]Chkkr Brightclaw[/wiki] which you may take on solo (just search for their names on Pvxwiki to obtain a viable farm build).

As to Alem, he may cost you too much time. Myself, I killed him far more than a hundred times with H&H while promoting my 10 PvE chars to LB 6/7, and he only once dropped his green, never ever dropped a tome.

i do tomton with my monk.

Mo/E sliver build. can kill the ranger, rit and monk in that area.

or try the SS build and kill all the yetis to.

which ever floats your boat

Abedeus · Nov 29, 2007, 11:33 AM // 11:33

Imo ritualist's construct. In an hour it's possible to kill more than 50 of them. Got his green once and elite tome twice... But I think that A.Net nerfed drop rates, as tomes are not dropping as often as they used to drop.

I'd farm Tomton Spiriteater. Exit from Aspenwood Gate (Luxon) and run to him. You should be able to pass all mobs, then when you reach him, aggro the other Yeti mob and then hit him with a standard A/E or E/A Sliver Farm. Throw in [card]Obsidian Flame[/card] for Shock.

does anyone know a good place for farming normal rit tomes as well?

Moriean · Nov 29, 2007, 03:36 PM // 15:36

I seem to get a lot of normal ritualist tomes while farming Destroyer Cores in HM with my Ele.

royal mercenary · Nov 29, 2007, 08:02 PM // 20:02

tomtom for sure,

niek2004 · Nov 30, 2007, 04:35 PM // 16:35

Yeah, Glint's Challange farm is an excellent place for reg rit tomes.

thedeadlyassassin · Dec 02, 2007, 01:26 AM // 01:26

Well, to be honest, go farm some other stuff, sell it, and buy the tome. I've E/A farmed Tomton spirit eater probably 300+ times and still no tome.

govolunteers05 · Dec 02, 2007, 09:57 PM // 21:57

I farm mine from Oreson, outside of Senji's Corner with Mo/E

Fairly easy. get tricky sometimes, but many mobs to help with Sliver Armor
