very interesting lists I would suggest adding the elementalist troll farming under 15 seconds, that is one i enjoy, also there was a vermin build set up by Nechtan Thaumaturge not so long ago, another quick gd ele build. I am also sure there are others if not i might have to re-write some from memory

I have farmed with my monk , my necro, my ele , my warrior and my ranger, and I have to say this build (close enough) is by far the best farming I've ever done. During the triple green weekend in NightFall, I farmed bosses by areas and just for the heck of it, and very few of them killed me, while I managed to rack in 19 greens.

The main thing here is you are solo, but not solo all the time. You go in with your heroes/henchies, full party of 8. Work your way to the boss. Kill everything BUT the boss. Go back and park your heroes/henchies 1-2 radars away. Switch to your 55 outfit and go in for the IMPORTANT kill, the boss that holds the green. It works sooooooo fast, that I rarely had to use Spoil Victor twice, never more than that.

I had an SS hero with a few points on death making LOW LEVEL Minions, which helped trigger Spoil Victor while we worked our way to the boss.


The only bosses it didn't work with, of course, are those with enchantment removal. I tried anyways, and well, lol it ended there. Aside from that, ALL the other bosses dropped like flies: warriors, eles, dervishes, paragons, rangers, monks, ... When fighting a caster, make sure you go in and start hitting them with your axe/sword to make them wand you and take 105 dmg each time they do

What I used, after making minor adjustments:

[card]Protective Spirit[/card]
[card]Healing Breeze[/card] use as needed
[card]Spoil Victor[/card] [wiki]Spoil Victor[/wiki]
[card]Life Siphon[/card] (only needed to use it with monk bosses)
[card]Shield of Absorption[/card] (rarely needed to use it)
[card]Balthazar's Spirit[/card]
[card]Essence Bond[/card]
[card]Mending[/card]

Blood 16, Healing 9, Prot 9

Can most of these even be done anymore? Due to the update with the computer AI, I don't think that most of these can even be done anymore. I think the only ones that live are builds that have an Earth Ele in them.

Does anyone know a farm build for a monk in factions ? or nightfall, but without proph skills. I don't need to farm UW, FoW, or high places, just a build to farm in a zone and make some good money or greens.

Just posted this Here

http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Build:A/any_Chkkr_Farmer
^Made by me, favored by Wiki. Originally named the Chkkr Farmer before I realized it could do so much more than just farm all 4 Chkkr bosses. For example, how many Assassins do you know that can SOLO Shiro Tagachi at the Gate of Madness? (Im working on a vid, just need a good group to get there in one piece)

The Weapons should be Zealous Daggers of Fortitude or Warding or something along those lines.
The Armor should have enough radiant insignias/runes of attunement to get at least 30 energy and 400+ hp, and preferably Nightstalker's insignias for extra armor bonuses.

General Chkkr/physical damage boss farmer:
[skill]Critical Defenses[/skill][skill]Unsuspecting Strike[/skill][skill]Wild Strike[/skill][skill]Critical Strike[/skill][skill]Moebius Strike[/skill][skill]Death Blossom[/skill][skill]Dark Escape[/skill][skill]Shadow Refuge[/skill]
Unsuspecting Strike can be swapped for Jagged Strike if a condition > spike.
Dark Escape can be changed for Way of Perfection is a running skill isn't needed.

Simple enough strategy here:
1. Use Dark Escape + Shadow Refuge to run to the boss, avoiding as many aggros as possible.
2. When you reach the boss, pull it away from any surrounding mobs with a longbow.
3. When the boss approaches, cast Critical Defenses and use the first two attack skills.
4. Spam Moebius Strike and one of the dual attacks:
5. Death Blossom for straight damage up to 50% health.
6. Critical Strike for energy and all damage after 50% health.
7. Use Shadow Refuge/Way of Perfection as needed for healing in the 25% defense gap.

This build can also be used effectively in general PvE, just replace Dark Escape and maybe even Shadow Refuge with other support skills.

-------------------------

Shiro Solo. Yep thats right.
[skill]Critical Defenses[/skill][skill]Unsuspecting Strike[/skill][skill]Wild Strike[/skill][skill]Critical Strike[/skill][skill]Moebius Strike[/skill][skill]Wild Blow[/skill][skill]Dark Escape[/skill][skill]Shadow Refuge[/skill]
Jagged Strike should NOT be used as Shiro turns conditions back on you.
Having a Monk Hero with you just as insurance is usually a good idea.

Mostly the same as before, but with a few differences:
1. After the Lich is dead, send your party around the perimeter to get the bonus.
2. Put up Critical Defenses and Way of Perfection, maintain WoP as much as possible.
3. Use Unsuspecting Strike, then WAIT for Shiro to use Battle Scars before you use Wild Strike.
4. After this happens, Begin spamming(not as fast as before) Critical Strike and Moebius Strike to keep Crit. Defenses up forever.
5. Watch what skills Shiro uses, as soon as he uses Battle Scars, use Wild Blow or you WILL DIE.
6. The first half of his health can take a long time, be patient and keep at it.
7. After 50% is gone, constantly spam Critical Strike and Moebius Strike, but DON'T FORGET ABOUT BATTLE SCARS!
8. By the time the group finishes the bonus, you should have Shiro around 25% health and dropping fast, and your group can either sit back and watch, or join in to finish it faster.

Yes this works, as long as you don't mess up. I am working on a video of it now, but I need a group that can actually GET to him without dying a million times first.

And my message to all those naysayers who say sins can't tank:

Wanna bet?

ok bs, sorry but i hate guides that are bs. this aint your fault witte but the guy who posted this http://guildwars.ogaming.com/forum/i...pic=23354&st=0 forgot to say about the trident spears the ice golems throw at you.

when hit by one of these if you are moving you get knocked down.
you will need to take hences and kill these golems if you want to use this build.

idk atm even if it sols the imps but getting there is a pain in the a$$ without either heroe or hench.

thought you should know this, inless someone else has alreay said it. in which case, my bad.




after finally getting there and taking some on, i further add hahaha no chance. this build sucks.

Anywhere but Guild Wars now, sadly.

It's a shame, this game had so much potential, but is ruined due to stale gameplay and lame updates

Nice list,
Glad I found it.
