Also doable with Elementalists for those without 55 monks. No extra equipment required (barring a 20% enchantment stave) and an average hp bar will do.
Earth Magic 8+1+3
E storage 7+1
Healing Prayers 8
Smiting Prayers12
Signet of Mystic Wrath
Reversal of Damage
Restful Breeze
GoLE
Shield of Judgement
Stoneflesh Aura
Kinetic Armour
Watchful spirit
This will basically take you up to The Black Curtain. Upon entering which you will find the opposition somewhat hard to kill.
The Signet is for moving things along faster (an easy 200 damage) also saves you from re-using SoJ on the mob left overs. Reversal of Damage is for keeping Kinetic alive (and avoiding spike damage from Desecrate Enchantments). Restful Breeze is far better than Breeze for this build surprisingly. Watchful spirit is there to counter degen. In all honest it's a free slot. Don't need energy management here (again a surprise) so no Essence Bond or Balthazar's, but there is a lot of degen here (Mesmers, Rangers, Hell hounds).
Your only real danger here is the Necrid Horsemen. They use Desecrate which hurts if left unchecked. Kill them as the top priority. Second is the Worlock's. Not much trouble on a good day, but they can stick Death Nova on their minions so you gotta be careful. Also stay away from mobs with monks. Takes way too long to be worth the trouble. That's about it. Have fun. It's easier with a 55 monk but we aren't all so fond of them .

About the most keepable Sephis I've had drop for me was a Req. 10, 15%/-10AL, 20/20 Sunder. So I slapped a +5AL grip on it to make it a +15%/-5AL bonus now, lol.

And right after I typed this a 15% while Enchanted Drops. I'm getting closer, lol.

I think alot of the people farming these are people, like myself, who always wanted one, but refused to pay so much money for one. I agree though, the introduction of hard mode has made Sephis Axes, Dead Bows, and Dead Swords rarity wane a little bit.

Dead Sword prices dropped way before Hard Mode, when someone leaked the quest to farm them. The introduction of Hard Mode has made every farmable item lose it's rarity.
schmoky
can someone post a screen with the map where you farm?!:P

You make it sound like it should have been a secret...
clawofcrimson

The market for Sephis Axes and Dead Bows will definately drop, but I personally love the dead bow skil regardless of rarity (Nundak's Recurve is still my current fav bow) and am farming largely for personal acquisition. Of course getting farther on my Wisdom Title and picking up lots of other stuff such as Cupcakes along the way is always nice too.

Basically whenever my necro goes to Bergan Hot Springs, there's always like 10 ll 20 monks in their underwear, I'm the only 55 necro that does it Nebo Terrace it would seem :P

Yeah, a mod for the farming part of the forums believes in secrecy of farming spots.

I never said it was supposed to be a secret. I found out when it got leaked like everyone else.

105hp monk perhaps? or maybe shield of absorption/shielding hands negates the dmg. More likely he just switched one of his pieces of armor

its not that hard. Shatter enchantments has a cooldown of 25.
Put on enchantments like this:
Prot spirit>mystic regen>shielding hands>shield of ab.
Boom-shatter hits, you take 0 dmg, and blah blah blah. Just keep in mind you have about half a min to kill the mob.
Btw: IF you die, the build I posted can farm with 1 hp, so you get back from -15% easily.
Mergoyles are tougher, but some strategic pre-casting works wonders.

Strangely enough saw a lot of young monks (low levels 19 down) complaining about bots right before the soloed thru the portal, lol

It goes in waves. One run I get nada, the next I might get 3 to 7 golds. The key I have found is that the people who only go back around the house and just kill at the bottom of the hill probably get less. I decided to just go ahead and make a complete undead circle. That includes up to the fort, back to the swamp, and ends with the undead boss (Except for the ranger one, he kills you with concussion shot, lol.)
If I get no drops at the bottom, I more than make up for it further back. A little longer, but more profitable. A full run is getting me at least 3k after merching the junk, and more if a good dye, rune, or mod drops.

I just clear out everything on the way to cursed lands, and then go in there if i feel like it. Where do you go? I didnt quite get your instructions.

I think you may be confused. He is talking about doing the Gates, and you are doing Nebo.
