Hey guys,

I gave this run a try in HM with my Ele today, I already did that farm with my monk in NM...I got a problem: Aggroing the Vaettirs, I often take 1-2 dmg per hit which kills me very quickly..I tried to leave out Haste and replaced it with Armor of Earth but when I try to get there with a Hench party we always get wiped..
Since no1 other is apparently having that problem, could you imagine what I'm doing wrong?

Dude,

PM me IG tonight (friday dec. 28th) between 9pm -12am CST and I'll show you what builds I have been using and continually modifing for the best results and how to get there w/o using any running modifiers and a build w/ one.

IGN ===> Krye Dimag

And the thing I can see you are doing wrong is bringing the H/H's. Go completely by yourself.

This build is similar to one I run, but I run Stoneflesh Aura, Obsidian Flesh, Mantra of Earth, Glyph of Swiftness, Sliver Armor, Tenai's Crystals, Crystal Wave, and initially when I wasnt as good at it, I had Armor of Earth, but you can substitute out a run, to get you through Jaga Moraine, or I put another damage skill, in like Light of Deldrimor. You are able to keep up Obs flesh and Stoneflesh at all times with Glyph of Swiftness and also a +20% modded weapon. At that point, you can aggro every single Spectral in the area in HM and easily slap them, typically I take the group in 1/2, 36 on the right side and the 24 on the left. Great great drops, and you can just keep rezoning to keep it up for a while. Farm nerf does slow it down, it was alot of fun when I started it and got the Honeycomb and Hunter's Ale drops

Easy run you can solo it without any H/H...

alright^^ so it may be caused by my armor...hopefully I just gotta get some insignias on my armor but thatd be crap b/c its all with radiants :x

well, and I spent like 10k on crafting the weps but I guess I'll have to customize my armor too

EDIT: Hey, I applied Geomancer Insignias both on my Chest and Leggins, and now it's running great..nice drops, got 5 lockpicks, like 50 glacial stones, black dye and lots of golds so far!
Thanks for the build and the support!

Hey,

I realy liked your build since it is much faster than soloing with the E/Me build and becouse a monk can't farm vaetir HM
However I've found some skill unnececary (especialy on the monk who only has 2 functional skills) so I made some adjustments for even quicker runs
first the ele:
[skill]glyph of swiftness[/skill][skill]stoneflesh aura[/skill][skill]obsidian flesh[/skill][skill]I am the strongest[/skill][skill]whirlwind attack[/skill][skill]cyclone axe[/skill][skill]flail[/skill][skill]conjure lightning[/skill]
16 earth
9 air
9 axe

but now, The monk :
[skill]Strength of Honor[/skill][skill]balthazar's spirit[/skill][skill]mindblender[/skill][skill]spell breaker[/skill][skill]balthazar's aura[/skill][skill]ebon escape[/skill][skill]symbol of wrath[/skill][skill]blessed signet[/skill]
smite 16
divine 13

the ele is played as normal but the monk is a lot more fun now,
just use mindblender to run to jaga moraine, cast strength and balt spirit on the ele and let him aggro the mobs. go stand on the edge of their aggro
wait till the mobs are down to 1/3th - 1/4th of their health, then cast mindblender - spell breaker - balthazar's aura, shadowstep to you ele with ebon escape and hit symbol of wrath

et voila

(some1 should fix those pve skills >.> )

Hmmm interesting, im at work now so i cant try it now but this build give me an idea:

Fiery axe haft

[Fire ele;OgFlUFJsUqkMDJ9pN8VxXoU4LYLUWB]

You would have the (axe+conjure)+(flame djinn)+(burning from MoR)

This should make it go faster... i will try it when i get home.

Plus the fact that I have access to 2 accounts. I use the 600/smite build successfully on them since the smiter just needs to cast enchants and go afk. It is also safer with 2 characters.

Yeah i was right, i tried both build and with fire they die way faster, i tweaked the build and this is what im using:

[Fire ele;OgFlUFJsUyMKJJ9pN8VZLoUsDyX4LA]

Yeah no running skills, dont really need it. I prefer to have more damage and (conjure+Whirlwind Attack) > (flame djinn)
