Here is a Dervish Build that can farm bosses, and many other things.
Attributes
9 Protection Prayers
11+3(14) Scythe Mastery
9+3+1(13) Earth Prayers
6+3(9) Mysticism
Skills
1. Protective Spirit
2. Mystic Regeneration
3. Mystic Vigor
4. Mystic Sweep
5. Eremite's Attack
6. Reaper's Sweep
7. Essence Bond
8. Balthazar's Spirit
Equipment
You should have a full set of armor with Superior runes on every piece. Radiant Insignias are good, but not needed. A scythe with 20% longer enchantments is good. Also, make sure your scythe is customized with a 15% damage mod of some sort.
The Bosses
You should kill the bosses in a certain order. Between the 2nd boss and the 3rd boss, you should commit suicide, to lose some health. The order that you will be killing the bosses is: Bubahl Icehands->Jerneh Nightbringer->Lunto Sharpfoot->Chor The Bladed.
The Path
The best way to go is to head East out of Nundu Bay, down to the Skales. If you see Bubahl, kill him, then head North, North-east. You will see Jerneh across from the Ressurection Shrine. Kill him, then head North, to where the cows are. From the cows, head west, back from where you came from. Go back to the Ressurection Shrine that is outside of Nundu Bay, then head North-east. You will see Lunto. You will have to pull the bugs a little bit, so if there is more than one queen, you can hit both of the queens at the same time. Make sure you pull pretty far away though, because there are plant patrols. Once you kill Lunto, head North up to Chor. Do the same type of Mob manipulation that you did with Lunto. As soon as Chor uses Frenzy, Unload all of your Scythe attacks on him, and he will go down fast.
Skill Usage
When you first get out, cast Essence Bond and Balthazar's Spirit. As you are coming up on a group of enemies, cast Protective Spirit, Mystic Regeneration, and Mystic Vigor. Pull the monsters accordingly, use your scythe attacks whenever they recharge, and recast your enchantments when needed.
EDIT- This build can also farm Djinn very well too.

I believe that build does work dont feel no pain, because I used it when I tried to farm Shezel with it. I did pretty good, but even at 16 Earth Prayers, Sand Shards couldn't kill him.

Nice! I need to try this out.

(...) Still needs Mystic Regeneration to counter degen from hexes & conditions.
I will try with [skill]Dismiss Condition[/skill] or [skill]Signet of Removal[/skill] tommorow (dont have mystic regen or mending touch & I hate random pvp).

With all of the enchantments up, you will have +20 regen. I have tried Darksong, but his heals outheal your damage.

Killsmith
Phew, that was close. When I saw the post, I almost thought somebody else had found my 0 damage dervish build. Maybe I'll get to keep it to myself for a few more weeks.
Ecksor
Well if your Dervish is a D/E Stoneflesh Aura, Armor of Sanctity, and Veil of Thorns would do it.
Killsmith
Nope, but close. I was thinking of making an E/Mo around christmas so I could do a 250 hp 0 damage build. My 0 damage build is with a D/Mo. I've been using it since a few weeks after the nightfall release.
Ecksor
Eh just give it out already lol

If he's using a D/Mo build and taking 0 damage then he's just using a variation on the SoA "new age monk" build. Shield of Absorption will reduce the damage you take to 0 after a few hits.

Yup that's mostly likely it.
Anyways.... THIS BUILD IS AMAZING!
I succesfully solo'd all 4 bosses on the first run no problem (and got the sin daggers on my second run).
Purposely dying before each boss also helps out alot since your HP is around 55ish than.

Thank you guys By the way, the Mesmer boss named Neoli or something like that is possible, but you need to have lower health, and a little luck too.

Yes, probably SoA + Extend Enchantments + Vow of Silence (or another elite to define) + 20% enchant + some SoA "new age monk" skills, should be OK. No damage, no hex, no conditions

That is a great post.
This is what I've been using to farm for some time also. Excpet I sometimes Sub Whirling Charge for Essence Bond to push dmg through on some Bosses. You just have to learn when To auto Atk and when to use Your Atk Skills. I boost wind Prayers to 7. I also use Whirling Charge to avoid certain mobs.
With the way The Dervish armor is Set Up, I can Keep my HP exactly how I want it even at 60 DP. I like how Mystic Vogor heals you to full Life In a large crowd.

Seems to me that every build used to farm is strongly based on the 55HP Monk build that people would bash previously and say is a dead build.
[skill=big]Protective Spirit[/skill]
The backbone of nearly every enchantment based farming build in current existence. This is a money spell if anyone ever saw one.
[skill=big]Shield of Absorption[/skill]
The new spell on the block.Very useful for those who want to take on massive aggro.
[skill=big]Essence Bond[/skill]
Energy Management 101 (This is 1 of the 2 spells to use for E Management if you have a monk secondary)
[skill=big]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill]
This is the other. E Management and Adrenaline Battery,this maintenance enchantment goes a long way.
The long and short of this is that the 55 HP Monk build is the major component to these builds in general,from the use of multiple superior runes, to the use of its backbone enchantments in order to fuel mana resources and to protect the individual using the builds that are really nothing more than hybridized version of this,the 2nd 55 HP Monk build.
[skill=card]Protective Spirit[/skill][skill=card]Healing Breeze[/skill][skill=card]Mending[/skill][skill=card]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill][skill=card]Shield of Judgment[/skill][skill=card]Balthazar's Aura[/skill][skill=card]Bonetti's Defense[/skill][skill=card]Cyclone Axe[/skill]
Even this build has taken on different forms with different secondaries, however, the original 55 HP Monk build was based on a Mo/W, and thus, the use of Bonetti's as energy management.
In time,more monks used [skill=card]Blessed Signet[/skill] when not being a Mo/W, since they had no access to the tactics-based stance of the warrior secondary.However, now that we can change professions on the fly, it is no longer neccessary to use inferior means of E Management to get by.
Mo/Mes used [skill=card]Mantra of Recall[/skill] with [skill=card]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill] to achieve similar results of the Mo/W and Bonetti's.
My point for all this is that even though the build in discussion is solid in its implementation, and original in theory due to its primary, it is far from being original in its core structuring.It's a 55 Monk in long robes and a scythe. Maybe a potentially better farmer,but it learned its farming skills from a monk.

Sorry about my newbie kind question....about your armor and runes(Radiant Insignias). Can I apply runes with any armors or have to be something special armors? My armors lvl is 40 right now. I think name is a sunpear armors.
matt the man
idk wats wrong with me.... i cant kill lunto or chor (even with the dp)
i kill bubahl and nightbringer with no trouble at all

well i suppose any armor lvl is enough, because you rely on prot spirit so u can have beginner armor on you.

Radiant Insignias can be equipped for extra mana, and do not hender the use of runes in the least. The short of this is that you can equip an insignia and a rune on the same piece of armor(I.E.Radiant Elonian Armor of Superior Scythe Mastery).The Radiant insignia gives extra mana energy, but the amount depends on where the insignia is placed,chest giving +3,legs giving +2, and feet and arms giving +1 each. Of course,I am not the build creator, but I think these are the basics of the equipment portion of the build. Yet,if you look at the screenshots he posted, he has no radiant runes at the time he took the pics, since his energy pool is at 25,the base energy pool of all Dervish.
Also, this is not the armor you will be normally adventuring in. This,your farming armor, is a seperate set of armor. The build is based on you taking on ALL the aggro,so it is not as effective in a group. That being said, it can be the armor you got from the beginning, but imo, it is always best to use max armor in the off chance that the enchants are stripped and you need some time to reapply them...no garauntee that you will live in that scenario,but max armor may save you from dying when you really don't want to.

I swapped out Mystic Vigor for Vigorous Spirit. Longer cast time but more healing per hit and lasts 10secs longer. Just cast it BEFORE going into battle. If you're fighting enemies with a lot of interrupts then you can take Mystic Vigor i guess, but i haven't really had a problem so far.
Just take all attrib points away from mysticism and put it into healing.

If you did that though, you wouldn't have as high of a health regen to counter the degen that you occasionally face. Matt the man, make sure you have a scythe with a damage mod on it. I use a 15% while enchanted scythe that is customized.

Just take all attrib points away from mysticism and put it into healing. Actually, Mystic vigor heals for more than vigorous spirit. It heals for 5 for EACH enchantment on you. Since you have 5 on you (Prot spirit, mystic vigor, mystic regen, essence bond, balths spirit) than you are getting 25 health per hit and you can't get that much with vigorous spirit (even with healing prayers at 12)
