How I make at least 4000g/hr guaranteed with a Nightfall ONLY Dervish...

NOTE: You're probably thinking, "Why is this n00b running 8 in Healing Prayer instead of Earth Prayer?" Here's my rationale (whether it's valid remains to be seen): [skill=text]Mending[/skill] is an enchant that I do not have to maintain (i.e., continually recast). It, along with [skill=text]Faithful Intervention[/skill], are "cast and forget" kind of enchants. Having these two enchants up all the time without using energy to recast them, allows me to use my limited energy for more offensive skills. Plus, the two enchantments gives me a de facto bonus for all the bonuses (e.g., Windwalkers, Damage output, [skill=text]Mystic Sweep[/skill], [skill=text]Mystic Vigor[/skill], etc). Hence, I reasoned that I would rather have +3 health regen on me all the time, instead of +2. Yes, I know that [skill=text]Mystic Regeneration[/skill] gives me +X per enchants... For now, however, this is just my description of how I've been able to make my measily income. I'll tweak this aspect as I get less n00bish. Weapon:
Any maximum damage (9-41) scythe. It goes without saying that one should customize it for the bonus to damage output. Furthermore, obviously any +HP and/or +dmg (while enchanted) helps; however, I ran my money train for a long time without the benefits of these modifiers. Simply put - nice but not aboslutely necessary.

Location:
From Yohlon Haven, enter Arkjok Ward. You'll see the insects immediately. Talk to the Priest for bonus XP if it's available for you.

Methodology:
The most important rule: MAINTAIN YOUR ENCHANTMENTS!!
Second most important rule: Only recast your enchants as they expire but not before. Otherwise, you won't reap the benefits of Mysticism, which gives you energy and health back.

As you zone, cast [skill=text]Mending[/skill] and [skill=text]Faithful Intervention[/skill]. These will be your de facto enchants that you essentially do not have to worry about maintaining. And, as mentioned earlier, having these two up automatically benefits all your bonuses (e.g., Windwalkers, Damage output, [skill=text]Mystic Sweep[/skill], [skill=text]Mystic Vigor[/skill], etc).

Until you get the hang of it, aggro only one group at a time. And remember to use the terrain to block the ranged attacks of the Queen and the other bug (I forgot its name), while you deal with the melee Termites. When the Termites attack, it always helps to back away every so slightly to cause all the bugs to bunch up in front of you.

When the bugs are almost upon you, cast [skill=text]Mystic Regeneration[/skill]. Now cover that with [skill=text]Mystic Vigor[/skill], which will give you a maximum of +25 health x3 = +75 each swing, if you manage to hit 3 bugs at once. By now, you should have hit C and Spacebar to start your attacks. You should have enough energy to do a [skill=text]Lyssa's Assault[/skill], which upon completion will give you enough energy to do a
[skill=text]Chilling Victory[/skill] right after. Almost immediately, do your [skill=text]Reaper's Sweep[/skill] and queue your [skill=text]Mystic Sweep[/skill], which will hit in 3/4 time. Once you've done this cycle of attack, it will be about time to recharge your [skill=text]Mystic Regeneration[/skill] and [skill=text]Mystic Vigor[/skill]. Rinse and repeat.

After you dispense with the Termites, wait behind the rock until you recover fully before engaging the ranged bugs. It really helps to have these ranged bugs bunched up together as well. Move around a bit to see how they respond to you. Sometimes you may have to run away a bit to have them follow you. As soon as you see them bunch up, hit your C/Spacebar combo.

I've taken on 3 Queens and have beaten them so it's not impossible; albeit, it took a long time. Thus, if you don't want to waste your time, you can just rezone and do it again. Remember, the ranged attack bugs do not dish out high melee damage so you can use your energy to cycle your offensive more often without having to recast your defensive skills.

Show me the money!
Here's the money making part: Aside from all the vendor trash you obtain, there's something that drops with great frequency. Oh, remember to sell the vendor trash after you ID them as the actual value can be in fact quite a bit more. If the item's actual value is 4g or more than what the vendor originally would have paid for it, then you're at least breaking even for the use of the superior ID kit. If you don't know what the heck I'm talking about - PM me...

Anyhow, these insects love to shed their carapaces. I mean quite literally, in one run, I collected 20 Insect Carapaces. Now before you even think about selling these at 20g a pop - think about this. "Wait a minute," you say, "20 x 20 = 400g; that's a lot of money! Why wouldn't I sell them?" Well, what if I told you I could turn those 20 Insect Carapaces into 1200g?

Here's how you do it - run over to Poti in Jahai Bluffs and turn in 5 Insect Carapaces for the Jeweled Chalice, which sells for 300g. Do the math: 20 / 5 = 4 Jeweled Chalices. 4 x 300 = 1 platinum & 200 gold. Much better, huh? Now, like I said earlier, this might not be much gold in the grand scheme of things. But an income is still an income. It's come to a point where I can do this run in about 10 minutes. I garner at least a platinum per run. That's at least 4 platinum per hour if I figure in the time it takes me to ID and vendor. This doesn't even take into account the actual money dropped by the bugs and the occasional Kournan key, dyes and GOLD items I've farmed.

Additionally
I've used this build to even solo all those monkeys that throw rocks at you. This takes a bit more setup as you have to use the terrain to avoid their projectile while you bunch them up together as a group. Also, it is even more imperative that you maintain your [skill=text]Mystic Regeneration[/skill] and [skill=text]Mystic Vigor[/skill] so that you heal yourself while hitting them. If you go for even a few seconds without healing yourself, you'll put yourself into a health deficeit that's hard to pull out of with only 25 energy.

Yet, I've died a few times and still managed to finish off all 3 groups of gorillas even at more than 40% death penalty. The benefit of killing the gorillas is that your death penalty disappears quickly and they drop Half-digested armor, from which you can salvage runes/insignias and even steel ingots.

Anyhow, please feel free to comment and as I progress in this game, I may find another tweak or two. Who knows? Maybe I'll even find another great place to farm!

Flame away!

UPDATE:
Implementing people's wonderful suggestions, I found that the apparently minor adjustment to the attributes made a major difference. On the first attempt with the modified attributes, I was not only able to solo all the bugs, I was able to farm all the surrounding apes (Tusked Howlers & Hunters) - all in under 8 minutes. If I just do the insects, I've been averaging 3-4 minutes.

My last run (bugs & apes) netted me 849 gold, 6 carapaces, 19 items (8 of them blue), 1 white dye. After salvaging, I kept 2 runes, 1 steel ingot, 1 grip, the dye and sold the rest, giving me 1665 cash. Figuring 2 minutes to salvage and sell, this means in 10 minutes, I made 1665 in cash only. So one hour would be nearly 10 platinum in cash - not to mention all the items I would keep or the carapaces I'll go turn in... Not too bad, huh?
