witman's folly in hm gives you some nice loot. Lots of Gold/Purple stuff.
Most of it is rubbish but it sells quite good to merchant.
I don't think you really need a war build for it (giving you a war build would be blasphemy :P )

There is a farm in Old Ascalon HM where you kill the stone elementals, there is also a Warrior Boss there. There is a ripost/smite build in the farming forums if you look, I don't know it off the top of my head. The drops aren't the greatest but you do have a chance at a warrior elite tome and lockpicks.

EDIT: forgot to add rubies and sapphires.

the hulking stone elementals outside sardelac sanitarium can be easily soloed in HM with a tank build. You can use either Triple Chop and Cyclone Axe, Glad's defense and Ripostes, VwK Rit or Warrior. and like wetsparks said above, you can get gems(i got one my first run) but their drop rate is like 1% or something crazy small. Also they drop nice golds like Twin Hammers, Hand Axes, and Shields. You can get about 1 a run or more if you get lucky. The run can be anywhere between 10-15 minutes. No grawl since they can knock you down and own you.

Care to enlighten us on the Mesmer build use for this area? Is it a DopeFish product or someone else's creation?

Yet you did, but without providing any useful information about it for anybody seeking to use it.

You can find that build below, along with a plethora of information on variations and where to use it. Great HM build, very versatile.

I'm pretty sure that the OP stated that he wanted "normal health" builds.

330 hp is hardly what I'd call far from normal - just two sup runes. Bit different from a 55. And hey, if it helps him, great, if not, whatever. It's an option.

I was just trying to offer some assistance. What exactly were you trying to do?

i think all my ordinary PvE builds can manage a 1 on 1 with 'em both.

for example, my mesmer kills both with emhatie, Signet of midnight and ether feast coz the ele isnt really an ele. he mostly uses melee attacks.
But i start attacking him with back fire.

cry of frustration and an interrupt signet is to interrupt the wars signet of heal for faster kill. Energy burn for extra damage. Epedemic to fight groups of three or four.

i dont get the point where this should be hard bosses to kill.

I use this build in PvE too sometimes and its great to AB with it. No special Armor or something is needed. go out and farm if u like.
Imho its not woth the time.

BTW: Thats a «Mani-Production».

Another Char with an ordinary PvE build is my hammer War for example. I dint try that and i am too lazy to translate the skills vie GW Wiki, but i think i can mange both bosses with it easy.

Plz, i did that just for fun, its not farming like killing scar eater or something like that, imho.

Hope i dont sound rude but these bosses r no challange. And in no way this is a "hot" spot ^^


greez and sorry for my bad english.

I believe your grenths solo still works in HM, but I'm not 100% sure.
