I have to say im impressed. this is a pretty quick, easy farm. I dont think i would use it as my primary farm, but it would be excelent to pull the anti-farm off of the trolls. I took liquid flame over fireball though.

What's the point of Stone Striker, unless you're using Geomancer's armor?

Tip: Change to E/Me and take Mantra of Earth instead of Essence Bond if you're using Stone Striker. Essence Bond gives you 1 energy, but MAntra of Earth gives you 2 energy per hit.

Did you get that Jade Sword from here btw?

Another tip: Once you go /Me for Mantra of Earth, take Arcane echo, good for using with SF, alot more damage output and is faster than waiting for it to recharge for only 2 damage signs. Took the idea from Spearmen's build, so can't patent it.

just had a go, took a few suggestions and its definitely faster if you go /me with mantra of earth and do echo SF

I just use mantra of frost/armor of earth/stoneflesh aura/fire attunement/mark of rodgort/flame burst/searing flames/aura of restoration
Think that might be a bit faster since they keep on burning, so you can just keep on spamming flame burst and searing flames for damage
I don't seem to get any goldies at all somehow though

Apparently Mesmers can do this to.
EDIT: You can't use 2 stances at the same time.

This won't get nerfed as R/E's have been doing this for a while. They use a Mark of Rodgort + any two other fire spells to keep this guys on fire, burning them down to 0hp quite quickly.

Same can be done for the Dragon Roots outside of St. Anjeka's Shrine if you have the right quest.

Good job on coming up with a new spin on an old build. I've never received a gold worth selling to anyone other than the merchant, but the xp and gp drops are pretty good. The Archaic Kappa Shells made me a fortune during the last event for the Chefs.

Wouldnt it work better with 16 in fire and 12 in earth?

16 in fire and 12 in earth
will kill U slow (AoR helps U hp)
but 12/13 in fire and 16 in earth are more save.
and 2x SF spells are a killer.

Awesome stuff on posting this build&spot man.This may not be the most profitable build,but it sure is hella fun
Oh btw,u could probably replace AoR with something else,since i never took dmg anyways,and if u wanted to,when we have favour,get earth att up even more with the res shrine right outside to summon melandru avatar.Anyways,ty again

Loving this idea. Unfortuantely, I played Kuzrick in Factions and must obtain 10k Luxon to get to this area!

Perhaps I will, but kudos kudos.

No need for both Stone Striker and Mantra of Earth, just use Mantra of Frost with an optional slot.

@Neriandal Freit: if you've played through the whole of kurzick territory, you can go through from unwaking temple mission and warp to lux side and work your way backwards through lux territory. It's what I've done to get my warrior to vasburg (im lux =]). Just a thought to save you the hassle of getting guest invite and etc to lux guild (though that might be faster). gl with it, kappa are my stone scale atm fueling my UW trap runs. Still no jade longbow to match my amberlongbow though =/
