Has anybody found a good build for farming this boss? I've searched this forum and guildwiki and came up with nothing. My guildie and I have come up with a duo build that can kill her and the couple annoying groups of carps/scuttle fish in about 5-10 min, but has anybody found anything better?

If not, is would anybody be interested in a guide for our method? I'm thinking about putting one together, but I don't want to put a lot of effort into it if nobody's interested.

uuuh i've never even heard of this boss, and i searched the name on Wiki and nothing came up. Are you sure the thing exists? lol if it does please put a link up to the wiki page.

EDIT- The name is Siska Scalewand, not Scalewind, that's why I couldn't find it at first lol

Looks like its very hard to solo. Backfire shuts down casters, energy drain well, drains your energy, and spirit shackles+mind wrack will own melee.

The E/A shadow form/sliver armor build works on him (or her). But as MelechRic said, the tough part is really to get to the boss, and then luring his group to a safe area to avoid aggro by the carps and scuttles.

A 405hp Me/Mo with Spirit Bond, IW/SV/AV can easily solo Siska as all the other Naga bosses (like Ssyn and Woe Spreader), when you've drained all the mana from them the job is done.

The real problem, as all other said, is to arrive alive to Siska's group. To do his, I've done dual runs with the warrior I have on my second account.
Leaving from Jade Flats (luxon) the warrior kills all the carps on the way with a Riposte/AP build. You just need to kill the carps, because they use Expunge Enchantments and Speed Siphon which are deadly for the mesmer.
Then the mesmer has an easy way from Jade Flats to the small beach in which Siska and his group are, and can do his dirty job.

Anyway, I found the run very time consuming, after 2 successful killings without drops I found someone selling the staff in KC for 17k and I bought it ...
