yes that was wut i was trying to do.i have found that once i get the enemie toa certain health i switch targets and use empathy on next guy,because the first one is still hitting me so it hurts him and im working n next.believe it or not i got 2 and a half i was like WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!may not be big deal to all of u but i am proud of it.

I still did not complete the tomb but thats more a time problem...
AND now with the skill change of Shadow of haste, Max stance time is changed to 39 instead of 52 (with atr 12) So killing a worm is going to be bit harder but i know it can be done with Mesmer Prime.
Im going to post the build when i have some more time but ill let you guys know one skill, Empathy

Oh and clearing stage one takes about 30 min.
Mesmer RULE
BTW:IM also able to do UW solo

After a short absence from GW I came back to work out the whole ele thing and it works great if they don't squirm you go through a whole spawn of graspings at once.
Shadow of Haste
Shadow form
Dash
glyph of elemental power (probably not needed but you dont have the time or energy for more damage skills)
Meteor Shower
Bed of Coals
Flame Burst
Inferno
Maybe you could change out one of the last two aoe skills for a single hitter for if they run too much idunno im doin fine with little difficulty at all.
Enjoy dawgs....I haven't bothered passing worms i can get through the first parts so fast its not worth the others.
Any doubts then message me ig ill show.


Forgot some
FM-15
ES-8
SA-11
If you do aggro a full spawn of graspings only use one extra aoe because it should leave you with just enough to leave...if not then the fear me will trap you.

Darkrawlinson, u r a fkn genius! Ty for sharing the build
I soloed tombs! (got victo's bullwark lol) it takes about 5 hours and half.
Btw, i think its better to duo, you can finish the tombs in 3-4 hours
if u have a good sin with you.
Me and a guildie reached the darkness in 3 hours and 12 minutes,
we like to "alternate" (when i spawn back with dark escape, he starts)
I suggest to farm NF too in this way, DoA is w8ing for Sins!

I dont think there is a thing that cant be soloed with this build

One more thing... i runned ppl to droks with similar Build, obviously shadow form based.
I suggest to Sins to try droks run too, its not hard (just timing) and u make
about 25k each run in 30 minutes.

MS=25e BoC=10e and the other 2 dmg skills are 15e im almost completely sure you can't get enough energy for it as a sin but it's been awhile and i haven't seen the most a sin can get with the new +20^50 staffs...


BTW
this build will do FoW quite fast as well you just have to cope with the spawn of the first pulls so they don't come back to you and rastigan....kinda hard to do with just one SF when you have to get good timing for it to work right.
UW is not soloable the Aatxes don't die in time.

With the knock down and fire the damage kills monks in seconds...the warriors are the problem because they run and you have to shadow step away...but they follow.

Can I get a list of all you people with a sin at tombs willing and ready to dual? Assassin igns preferable. A little community of farmers if you will :P Willing to come help each other when called. (Nothing binding of course, this is just a vision :P)

Rawl, about that SoH timing tip, after they rv'd the skills doing that makes it count towards Echo. Don't try using SoH while casting Echo, people...

Teamspeak is good, I have it. I don't think it would be worth buying a channel though, since we can just make one as we need it. I also have Ventrillo, not too sure how to use it though. Voicechats are always useful though Helps avoid people dying randomly >.>

With TS you just make a random channel, give it a password, and only give out the password to those you want in. Simple. >.> With Vent you have to do all this crazy stuff that scared me last time I tried it.

are you guys still able to get by the wurms on lvl 3 solo? The siege wurms on the left and right are no problem, but I always die by the 2 siege wurms in the center. Any suggestions ?

u can use paradoxcombo look :
paradox

SF
SoH

unleash combo
SF
unleash 2nd combo
SF
unleash 3rd combo

SoH should teleport you back cos it will end before your last SF does GL and HF

P.S. wisp me ingame for a really fast build where i can kill 1-2 guys in 1 shadow form

You mean http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10098485 build isn't this one what darkrawlingson posted on this thread? Yeah maybe they're different builds but the thread here is posted by darkrawlingson, as is this thread too. So I'm not quite getting whose build is not whom

Going to try this again tomorrow, haven't been down ther for ages!

I've seen this build on Wiki along time ago. I used to use it to farm some bosses in factions, and also tried it in numerous places. But the build is limited and takes along time to kill a group. Killing enemies 1 by 1 is a bit tiring.. It gets boring pretty quickly. best just soloing uw for ectos. Can get 1-3 ectos in a 12-20 minute run depending on which build u use. I personally use the E/Mo Savannah Heat build. I got around 90 ectos within a month of farming here and there...if you were to go hardcore farming uw, you can easily make a 1000plats in a week or two. Only thing different about this build from wiki is you dont poison, since some monsters dont have flesh.

Great build I have to say, I just finish TOPK with similiar tactics (with a monk hench as buffer) and equip myself with Recall instead of SoH. I manage to complete it under 4 hrs.

Heres my setup:



(p/s: my Dunky only lvl 18)

My Skills:
1. Empathy
2. Black Lotus Strike
3. Death Blossom
4. Black Spider Strike
5. Shadow Form
6. Arcane Echo
7. Deadly Paradox
8. Recall

My combo: (Recall on Monk b4 engaging)
7 --> 6 -(w8 5 sec)-> 5 -(charge in)-> 1,2,3,4,3 (1st target) --> 6 --> 2nd target --> 7 --> 5 --> 3rd target --> recall back

Normally I would kill 3 targets under 1 minute, but sometimes maybe more with Death Blossom AOE if you make it right

Succor from monk helps alot with energy management, and lvl 16 strength of honor gives you extra 11 dmg, I was able to kill a wurm or a darkness under 1 minute (3x SF).

I was able to complete TOPK on 2nd try (I forgot to cast recall on 1st try and died in the middle of the mobs that my monk cant rez me )




(Ignore Talkora, I brought her just for extra buff, which seems useless. I sent her far off while engaging Darkness )

3 drops, not too bad tho

Thx to the creator(s) of this build.

Cheers

Nerfed? Why?

If he posted the build yesterday, I don't think that it's nerfed ^^.

Thanks Mister O. I need to try that ^^ (I need to find other skills for Dunkoro U.U)

There is no problem fighting mobs. Empathy took them out fast since they attack faster. Wurm can still be killed in 1 round if timing is right, otherwise 2 rounds will do.

Might have a bit of energy trouble vs bunch of grasping of insanity tho, since 'fear me' -6 energy in HM.

cheers No need to fear "fear me!". It takes adrenaline, which I'm pretty sure they wont get against SF.

Thanks for posting the Hero Recall build, I'll have to rebuy the runes and try this again.

The healing skills on Dunky are optional actually, BiP is to help you regen faster.

Btw, my daggers

I reckon Xuekao's or Arius' will do too, zealous daggers of enchanting would be ideal


Ectos drop alot these days

I've tried Mister O's build (I'm in TOPK now ) but I can't kill the Wurms... I'm able to semi-kill 1 wurm (it keeps his health ^50%) with 3 SF...

What am I doing wrong? >_<

At last, I killed the 2 wurms... But I needed about 10 SF per Wurm T_T

At last, I killed the 2 wurms... But I needed about 10 SF per Wurm T_T For the popup wurm, estimate the area it gonna popup, Paradox+Echo+SF then go in. Eventually it will knock you down and appear (you should have your 1st SF duration ~ 1/2).

The wurm will start using Wary Stance and then Irresistable Blow to cancel it, then use the combo chain. Repeat the step 2 more times and you will kill it before your last SF ends. Make sure the wurm cancels it stance before you start the combo chain.

Btw, the trick wont work if you dont have lvl 16 Strength of Honor on you.

Just wanted to say thanks for posting this build!

20k gold+items, 5 ectos, 5 lockpicks, a few tomes and a haul of crafting materials in the last two days - and I've not been past the Chaos Worms in Scarred Earth yet

This is the first solo build that I've been able to get working for me - I found trapping with my ranger slow and tedious and *very* error prone, and have not got my monk, necro, or ele far enough to get the elites they needed to start farming with them.

This build has the benefit that you're actively fighting (more interesting than trapping) and that you're only killing 1-2 creatures at a time, so are *not* triggering the reduced drop rates from killing too many things at once. It's also easy to learn, and the elite & skills needed are easy to get . It's perfect for Hard Mode, and each run up to the worms is netting around 4k in gold + junk saleable items, with the nice stuff thrown in on top of that.

Thanks a heap!


Edit: Is it still possible to kill the Chaos Worms in Scarred Earth with the build on pg 3 (i.e. solo with no smiting hero)? I've been able to clear everything except the 4 chaos worms, but every time I tried them they'd drop to 1/2 health before SoH ended, and were fully healed by the earliest time I could get back to them.
