Yes, this is pretty funny place to farm. Got double gold drops per run sometimes, couple of them were pefect, sold one Gothic Sword for 70k

.

So, start from Saint Anjeka's Shrine and go to Drazach Thicket You must have quest, A New Escort which you can get from Brauer Academy.

Attributes

Smiting Prayers 16 (12+3+1)
Healing Prayers 13 (10+3)
Protection Prayers 10 (7+3)
Divine Favor 7 (4+3)
Rest on Wilderness Survival

Skills

1. Protective Spirit
2. Healing Breeze
3. Serpent Quickness
4. Shield of Judgement
5. Blessed Signet
6. Blessed Aura
7. Balthazar's Spirit
8. Mending

Video!

Just start running, hold Ctrl until you see Dragon Mosses:

There is a Warden patrol coming (couple mesmers), so you need to back up a bit, just stay in better side of this red line and everything goes well:

Of course if you know the tactic, you can kill Wardens too. But it can be a pain in your a$$

Might wanna switch Blessed Signet or Balts Sp for Storm Chaser, that will give you a lot of energy ^^

This is old news farming, not sure if anyone posted this spot, but a little different build with serpents. I just use a spirit bond monk with physcial resistance and I take off the chest and arm pieces and they die in 1 SoJ round using brambles for KDbleeding. I believe i farmed that place dry, (about 1.6 million xp from mosses) haha but every once in a while i get a few golds now and then but its not like back then when no one knew about it and u were guarenteed to get a gold every run. A run takes me about 3-4 min to do and i get about 700-1k in merchanting gold. But yeah, this was just a little add on to ur post.

Yeah.. it's a great place to farm.
I've been doing this for many months now, and posted in several threads.

I got an advice for you. Why dont you try to arcane echo the SOJ?
I do it, and it works great.

I do it, and it works great. Casting SoJ twice is enough, they die within the second cast

This spot is pretty much dead as far as high output farming. I used to get gold drops every run, sometimes two per run, now I haven't had a single gold since Saturday.

The drop rate here changed with the canthan chest run weekend update, IMHO there was a silent drop-rate change as well as the rest of the updates.

Yeah... Gold drops very infrequently here now compared to a few weeks ago. I use my Rt/Me to farm this spot, and I only get 500 - 700 gold each run.

I do it, and it works great. Serpents + SoJ works great. Try it. Actually his build is pretty much identical to mine if he swapped out blessed signet for storm chaser (awesome energy management by the way). I use that same build for IDS runs.

You end up getting over 60 seconds of nonstop SoJ when you factor in 20% longer enchantments from your sword/axe + ~25% longer enchantments from blessed aura.

You could also lower Healing and pump up divine more to give you even longer SoJ. 13 healing is not needed since nothing degens you here-I think 9-10 healing would suffice (whatever gives you +3 mending and +7 Breeze).

I have a rotateing farming system of spots that i can use the same build on, this is now one of my spots. I get 1 or 2 golds about everyother run. its a fast run. I run this, then switch, keeps farming code off my back, And since i never change my build, its easy to switch spots up, I use 4 enchants and SOJ no need for Ranger 2ndary if you dont want, Blessed Arua Is enough to keep SOJ going to kill everything in 2 casts. Also, check over the hills for chests, i find i can survive long enough to upen any i see,(let them strip breeze, and recast)

If this is of any significance. I've used Arcane-Echo and SoJ since near the beginning of factions for this quest farm and one other skill in place of mending - watchful spirit. Different stats too - 15 smite, 9 healing, 14 protect, 9 divine favor(leaving 0 left). These stats are with runes. Oddly enough, this run is still decent.. I try often back here for some occasional rare drops. One being a +28h -5(19%) Echovald shield.

Edit: Watchful Spirit is useful when you can't get the heal you need off DF.
