Is there an E/A solo farming build out now that someone would like to share? I ask because I was farming outside Durheim Archives and when I was getting things setup I saw a nonstop train of E/As and A/Es going out the gate solo all night.

Give those 30pages a brief read.

I dont know whats wrong with my build or my tactics, but sliver armor just wont seem to target the boss. What do I do?

it is entirely random...just bad luck. Sometimes mine wont. It works 100% on the Scar Eater but I've never managed to have it target Wiseroot Shatterstone. Just never seems to go for him.

it is random luck, but it also depends on how close you are to the monster... i've had it target shatterstone before, but only after killing 2 other monsters and constantly running up to him.

Proximaty to the enemy means nothing. If it wants to target it and its in range it will, whether it was there when you cast or not. If it ressurects, it retargets it.

Well then how is your success rate for sun reach?? Mine is about 70% why?? He runs AWAY when his health is LOW( in this case sliver worked on him) and often sliver targets WALLOW not sun reach( sliver issues). I eventually got his shield but I would say it's pain in the butt to get it. This farming is amazing yet at the same time it contains numerous stragety to master and problems such as sliver targets, aoe spells, sigent interruption, etc....

Please reply I really want to your success rate is yours is probably the same as mine

I've found it helps quite a bit to death's charge to the the guy you want to target.

It seems that silver armor just wont target certain bosses first. I've found that it targets most bosses first time, although there are a few exceptions such as the Factions monk boss with Word of censure, it never seems to target her.

If you want to talk about the build, do so in the thread where the build is. No need to make another post.
