Are there any farming builds out there that make use of Mantra Of Earth with Strone Striker?
Stone Striker is an Earth Magic (Ele) skill that makes all phys/ele dmg count as earth-- http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Stone_Striker
Mantra of Earth is inspiration magic (Me) that reduce earth dmg by a % and gives energy at the same time- http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Mantra_of_Earth
Can someone give me reference to a build that uses this? Im sure its more in-depth than just these two skills but im surprised i havent seen any builds using these two yet. Also would love to know the places farmable for it.
Would prefer not a UW/FoW run, hey i ain't on european server ;p
Thanks for the Help!

I've been using this quite a lot lately. Just get searing flames, some geo enchants, aura of res, and spam searing. Things die (like dragon moss, rockshots, aatxes, etc...), and you don't run out of energy.

Two skills (and two attribute lines) to cut armor-not-ignoring damage in half plus give you a nice energy boost?

Doesn't sound like it will be revolutionary for elementalists.

On the other hand, if there are some farming ideas for primary mesmers, this could be a bit help to those.

Well, it looks like the cat's outta the bag... May as well post my build.

E/Me Terra Tank

Attributes:
12+1+3 Earth
9+3 E. Storage
9 Inspiration

Skills:
-Mantra of Earth
-Stone Striker
-Armor of Earth (can be switched with Sliver Armor)
-Stoneflesh Aura
-Aura of Restoration
-Stone Daggers
-Unsteady Ground
-Aftershock

Equipment:
Geomancer's armor
Galigord's stone staff

I mainly use it on kirins because of how quick and easy the run is. Stoneflesh Aura also absorbs the dmg from barbs so when all the enchants are up, you'll be taking 0 dmg. Use unsteady to set up for an aftershock spike. They'll come back before they fully heal and the rc on unsteady and aftershock are short so you can hit them again shortly. The MoE/StSr energy engine will give you a generous supply to spam stone daggars.

It is also possible to solo Xuekao with this build.

Well I got a thinking about a week or two after Nightfall came out, and made up this build in my Guildwiki sandbox.

http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/User:Cu...box#Stone_Tank

I haven't really figured out a use for this, and the damage dealing skills are just randomly chosen.

If you look in the history, you'll see I came up with the build on Nov 12th. (I changed it recently, but only because I hadden bothered to change it before)
