was wondering if someone could explain the concept of farming to me. i have played other mmo i know what farming means. i am wondering how ppl do it. I always die right away when i try to do anything solo. are you bringing henchies with you? do you have some awesome build that allows you to run solo without henchies? what is the secret? could you guys maybe tell me a good build for farming?

No henchmen and you need the probper build to farm the high level areas. Not just any character can do it. Look at the builds forum for some ideas.

A farm build is a char that can both negate, and deal damage. usually you'll see monk as a part of the build so that you don't have to jump through hoops to protect yourself from death. Common stratagies include using W/Mo with Vigorous spirit (+3-11 health whenevery they hit someone in combat for 30 seconds)& Healing breeze or Mending... Monks with Protective [bonds|spirit], BA, Zealout's Fire, and divine boon... El/Mo using monk protection/healing regen spells with PBAoE spells... and there are variations. As long as you can make up damage that the mobs are hitting you with (either by preventing it from happening, out-healing it, or lessening the damage) and kill them fater than they can heal, you're in.

Generally these build are designed to take out specific enemies. Avoid farming Jade Scarabs.
