I went though the Arborstone mission in NM with myself, three heroes and friend. We got 10 stones in 3 runs. Just take the middle path and pull the last group carefully.

My Alliance Mate and I formed a 2-Rit Team (she did Channeling Spirits and I did Communing Spirits) and farmed the bosses in Arborstone explorable. It took about 4-5 short runs and we hit only the 4 bosses on the left side. It was lucrative (greens, elite tomes and stone carvings).

I found the fastest way for me was to solo-perma sin.

I like to use sliver build with dwarven stability (anti-knock down when drunk and lengthens my running stance) with a speed stance to avoid the traps on the way but any perma would probably work.

Run to the right to get to the the war boss, trigger the stones, take out the crushers, the boss and the reapers while avoiding the rains (they have shockwave). After the boss, crushers and reapers are gone I let one of the rains take me down.

Rez at shrine and now run to the left to trigger the stones at the necro and elemental bosses. Again, avoid the rains and the elemental boss.

I haven't tried the monk boss yet (his signets can hurt) but usually have my 5 carvings by then anyway.

I was using a ranger running a signet of spirits build. I would use Mindbender and "I Am Unstoppable" to run by the one group of wardens blocking the hallway. I could readily solo the 3 bosses in NM and was getting about one carving per run that just took a few minutes or so. I also spec'd points in restoration too, so I could heal myself if the elementalist decided to target me.

600/smite is easy aswell, though I haven't killed the monk boss yet but you can walk around him (gonna try enchant strip for his SoR). Got 3 carvings a run average, plus elite tomes, lots of golds etc.

I 600/smite it straight out Arborstone and left up the corridor (in HM)
takes about 2.5 mins for 1 group and 2 bosses (unless 2 healers in 1st group)

builds:

600 : OwUTMmHDZ6uSLqeIiYXUuEgQfAA

smite: OwQTQQHD1Ily8OlkmyLf4DA

very easy and fast
found lots of greens, elites, scrolls, lockpicks and stone carvings
cheers

The statues around the bosses wont spawn for me is there something special i have to do first. I only seem to be able to get the bosses alone and it just seemed a waste of time for small chance of 1 carving.

To get the statues you have to either kill a high number of foes in the zone or go off near the warrior boss (right from the start) and spawn the stone reapers etc there, once they have spawned you will get the ones nr stonereaper spawn too.

And the monk is a pain in the beans.

Arborstone (explorable) HM with H/H. Necro -> Ele -> Monk -> Warrior, walk back the same way as now adds on the first 3 bosses spawn. Didn't keep track on the time, but around 5-15mins per run i would guess. Didn't at least feel like it would have taken long.

Took me 3 runs like that, to get my 5 carvings. (dit it 2 times in NM before that, but since i got no carvings at all changed to HM)

I did Arborstone explorable, 600/smite (me 600 hero smiter) with the Song and Stone (think that's the name) quest active, regular 600 bar, switched out mantra for Spirit Shackles. Entered, throw up chants, go right, 1 group of wardens, then take out War boss and 2 groups of 6 statue guys, go back to start and go right, 1 group of wardens, then nec boss and group of 6 stone statues, ele boss, another group of statue guys, then last group of statues around monk boss. I found I could kill the monk boss with this bar but just reeeaally slow, so after the statue guys die, I just pick up loot and resign. Made 230k this way from carvings alone, plus all the other goodies. After all that though, only 2 greens lol.
