I've taken my sin to other areas, tried to mix it up in case shard drop rate decreases vis a vis anti farm, and it's still the same.
Anyone getting many shards per run? Well I don't do it with my sin YET but on my solo Necro I typically get 3 shards per run avg...sometimes more sometimes less. BUT keep in mind I clear out the shadow army at the beginning and the entire cave. Most I've ever gotten in 1 run so far is 9 shards...fewest is zero(on plenty of occasions also).

Music in FoW video is made by Diablo and the song is called Shadow World.
I think it's great Finnish heavymetaluber"mättö" band :P
My FoW forest of the wailing lord video is a bit slow to make because i'm experiencing uberhuberlag when i try to film it -__________-
But i think i now know where the lag comes from so i'll try to fix it and make the video as fast as possible =D

I would think if you dualed this you could kill basically.. FoW in general. Sure it'd take a long time but it seems Assassins can solo everything, and work better when there are other assassins around.

Hey Rand, I tried the build/beach yesterday. It was fun and oh so profitable. Checked out your video a couple times and kept observing what you did. It takes a little awhile to clear the whole thing, but in the end it's so worth it.
Thanks again buddy!

Hey Rand.
Good stuff mate.
All you sour bast**ds that have nothing better to do than flame f**k off.
He wasn't trying to claim the build as his own, just inform some people who may not have made the connection, that it can also do other areas.
BTW,Rand, i agree, Cookies taste nice .....hehehe...good work mate

Thanks Rawlinson =D i hope i didn't rape anyone's favourite songs by mixing them with other songs :S if i did, sorry =P
If you are wondering why i didn't kill those other skeletons the reason is this:
There are atleast 2 bonders and you can't kill them -__-, they also heal/protect the other skeletons. There are also those skeleton rangers which trap the ground around them so if you want to kill them it might be a big challenge+bonders heal them :S

Assasins skills is nerfed. Shadow of haste is nerfed. Does this nerf is only for a weekend ??
ahbuh
no it is goin to stay forever
Bloodied Blade
Apparently the "nerf" lets you not have to use a stance cancel...
mocax
the Sins got slower, that's for sure.
Not sure if it's worth the time now.

I'm just using that one speed farming build for first level now.
Although doing this was the only thing that was fun to guildwars...I enjoy the ecto possibility.

Actually this build is a bit easier to use now...you don't need Dark Escape because Shadow Of Haste ends before your second Shadow Form ends, SO you can replace Dark Escape with differend skill ;D
you can take something that deals extra damage...it will help you kill 2 foes in one assault =P just like the old times

I don't about any of you but I just tried this build in fow and when I go to use my echoed shadow form, it gets interupted and says the skill is still recharging. But the arcane echo starts to recharge. I tried to test it without fighting anything, just in case it was an enemy, and it still happened. But when I went to a normal explorable area in cantha, it worked fine. Any ideas on what it might be.

You use it a bit too late =P you see ae only lasts for 20seconds. so it ends before you can cast the next one. You only need 14 to shadow arts and it will work just fine :P test it a few times and you'll learn to time your echoed sf right =)
