Profession:A/Mo
Name:1hp sin
Type:PvE
Category:Tank/Damage
Attributes:11 prot 8 healing 11+3+1 dagger mastery
equipment:Shrouded Shing jea armor is best take 5 superior runes and Zealous *blank* daggers of enchanting with either +15% while enchanted +5 energy or 15^50.
Skills:
1-jagged strike
2-wild strike
3-death blossom
4-mending
5-watchful spirit
6-protective spirit
7-Life Sheath(elite)
8-Balthazars Spirit
Notes: Die twice to get 1 hp cast balthazars spirit then mending when u spawn. unequip your zealous daggers, wait for near full energy then use watchful spirit and wait until u have 15 energy get out of enemies aggro circle cast protective spirit then life sheath.Continue spamming dagger chain combo.watchful spirit can be replaced with healing breeze in areas with more degen.Fighting single bosses just die once and bring a 3 healing prayers mending.In areas where there is no health degeneration such as trolls replace mending and watchful spirit with golden lotus strike and essence bond.Still finding more variants to the build.A good place to practice at is the Nephilas in Hard mode by Sunspear Great Hall.In areas with large mobs use life sheath nearly every chance.
So I was helping a guildy cap Ineptitude and I needed Shield of Judgment
I knew I was going to die more than twice so i tryed this to see if it would work and to my surprise it did.I found out I could farm many things including
trolls,skale,can do parts of FoW with a partner that has rebirth and res chant
sskai but it takes a while and u dont need life sheath just a dif elite and take the blessings from the priest or use +2 mending and die once.Buhbals grasp
and even though u have to die for it to work right I think its worth it to get some cash from lots of monsters and the build has NO problem or shouldnt have any with avicara.Still working on variants and an UW solo one...well im new to the guru and ill be posting dif builds.hope you have fun with this(I know I will.)Oh and I almost forgot to say for FoW u need healing breeze and mending mending is cover enchant heh...and the wars take a while but a necro can help...some ppl may think a/e is better... but not for golds heh....

Nice inovation...maybe 55 monks can use this too.

I'm not so sure why Life Sheath is need, you mentioned you could replace it in certain cases, Moebius strike would be a good option.
Assassin of Shade
The reason life sheath is needed is cause if u just have protective spirit on u die in 1 hit at 1 hp and yeah I used moebius strike on sskai and a monk boss by blacktide den but it was after I posted the build.So life sheath reduces the damage to 0 for the next say 126 hits at like 12 prot prayers that give u time to cast it again in the event that ur fighting a large mob.... p.s. and if ur wondering what my avatar is its my favorite japanese band...yeah lol
Shuuda
Ah yes, Well I've never seen prot spirit at 1HP, so wasn't sure of how it worked. So Prot spirit makes all damage only 1 (Which would kill you) And LS neutralises th next +126 (Or whatever) Damage, so you can take that may attacks. But in that case, is mending really needed if your taking 0 damage, or is that to counter degen.
Assassin of Shade
yeah mending is to counter some form of degen such as when fighting buhbal mending + watchful spirit or if ur facing opponents that use bleed and another variant besides jagged strike is desperate strike if ur fighting foes with deep wound since desperate strike is 82% below and deep wound is 80%.oh and like i said mending can be switch out for areas with no degen such as trolls... but another factor is the recovery of dp vs ur hp so it will be able to take only so many foes before having to die again =(

D/Mo's with mystic regen farming gogogo.
ACreator
1hp + PS + LS is such a great idea 
men u have just found a very nice build

This is a great idea i just may have to use this for farming on my sin man! Awesome.
Samurai-JM
1hp + life sheath, very very nice. I see a new farming meta O_O
Assassin of Shade
thanks for the comments and yeah I was thinking of a derv one.... too bad they have the +25hp thing on the chest heh but they really cant atk alot of things except with chilling victory :\ already tried to make 1 didnt work out to well heh oh and im working on a sin solo uw build heh...
Kiba of hidden leaf
The efficiency is based on its recharge time and how many people you are facing right? [skill]Life Sheath[/skill]
Evilsod
Hehe, it is quite a good idea. But it sounds very limited on a primary assassin. Since the moment they surpass your +5 regen you die instantly I'd definatly agree with D/Mo Mystic Regen version, you could get alot more regen so could potential farm very hex heavy areas too.
Assassin of Shade
yeah its limited to how many ppl u are facing and recharge. Derv one does sound better maybe a colossal scimitar farmer. I tryed one using lyssas assault mystic sweep eremites strike and heart of fury mystic regen life sheath essence bond probly just needs condition removal.But yeah if ur facing knock downs u just slap on fleeting stability.
Samurai-JM
Could this work in PvP? As long as you're lucky enough not to meet much enchant-removal, you're basically invincible.
Assassin of Shade
only thing that can kill it is life stealing from a necro which is kind of common too much degen common again interrupts common so i dont think it would work out unless ur fighting mostly sins and wars.If u did do pvp u have to be resd once or twice and another thing that can beat it is e-denial and like u said enchant removal which is common. :\
Samurai-JM
This seems to be a new 55 variant, which can be suited to any profession. Just like the 55 it is easily killed by many thinks like what Assassin just stated, but in the right places it can be invincible. Still a very nice find.
ACreator
still the 55 tank does nt need an elite to bea alive.
thought I prefer sin, this works much better on E/Mo because AoE dmg..

Yanman.be
Also 55 doesn't require DP. You can't farm UW solo with this.
Assassin of Shade
Yeah but this build is made to farm things in hard mode that a 55 cant since they would die very fast unless they didnt have nf to get shield of absorbtion this is an alternative to those that dont have nf since it doesnt use any nf skills if u dont have prophecies either u can use golden lotus strike and critical strike(dual attack) for energy management instead of essence bond or balth spirit bond or u can take healing breeze but it would remove some dmg potential since u need to recast. yeah when I said uw solo I didnt mention for a dif proffession. :\
ensoriki
Farm things in hardmode?
But things attack so much faster..... LS could be done before its 7 second recharge is up -_-

AlienFromBeyond
That'd be a little under 16 attacks a second, which you could actually hit depending on how many guys you're fighting and what profession they are.
Still, nice build.

... Sounds like one to test on Anvil Rock Minotaurs to me...
Random thought: A Ranger primary (instead of Assassin) with an attack-avoidance stance could double the potential duration / number of enemies farmable.... right?

what I meant is that harldy u will take 126 hits in 20 secs, but even if it happens u are able to recast in 7 secs, so not worth bringing it :P
and another thing:
55 dont use elites to tank..

the tricky part about anvil rock minos is that the rez shrine is in an inconvenient location. depending on your spawn, you can either get raped by centaurs immediately after being rezzed or be completely cut off from the minos by a wall of dryders (which destroy you with shadow strike). you could pack a hero with rebirth/rez chant, but it's really a pain. every time you kill a mob, you have to die and let the rez you again, making the run slow and not worth the time. however, running a straight 55 with life sheath does work as long as you don't aggro too much and throw up life sheath the instant it recharges. here's an ele variant that i came up with using some existing principles from uw/gloom solos:
Equipment: 55 armor set, Totem Axe (or equivalent), -50 hp grim cesta
Fire Magic-16 (12+3+1)
Energy Storage-9 (6+3)
Protection Prayers-11
Protective Spirit
Life Sheath (E)
Balthazar's Spirit
Meteor Shower
Bed of Coals
Lava Font
Inferno
Flame Djinn's Haste
this is a pretty quick kill build. on the minos in anvil, you can usually get off a full round of nukes before they break aggro, which is convenient because life sheath and prot spirit run out at just about that time. after they come back, one good flame burst should be enough to finish them. the recharge of MS can be a pain sometimes, but i really can't complain. im still trying to figure out why i can't kill the centaurs, so any thoughts on that would be nice. ultimately, i'd say there are better things to farm with this build that you can kill much faster and more efficiently. for instance, this build also works on the trolls outside drok's very efficiently, especially since it's easy to get to 1hp there.
this also works relatively well for the minos in elona. just bring tahlkora with rebirth+rez chant. die at the trap in front of the starting gate, have her rebirth you then rez you, repeat, then flag her back. dive into the horde of minos below the ledge and have fun.
this whole 1hp concept is very nice for eles. whereas a shadow form ele would have more versatility in what it could farm, the 1hp makes farming easier and safer. you can seriously sit there and tank forever, giving rise to new possiblities for DoA tanks (provided you pack a monk with SB, you would be basically invinsible). amazing find!
oh, and stoneflesh aura 55ing doesn't work. trust me. ><
EDIT: does winter screw this build over? i think this may be the reason i can't kill the centaurs. can anyone confirm this?
EDIT 2: is life sheath bugged? it often seems like i get jipped out of a cast. i will throw up life sheath and prot spirit (and both will go up, according to the duration bars), but in two seconds i'll randomly die. there's no way 5 trolls can hit 118 times in 3 seconds...

moko
has someone actually tried this? because, as far as i remember, life sheat does NOT stack with prot spirit. this means, you will still take the original damage and ps would not change it at all, meaning life sheath would run out in very few hits. at least it was like this ages ago..and i cba testing this myself with a pvp char. >->

trust me, it still works. the prot spirit reduces the damage to 1, then the LS prevents that 1 damage 118 times. but make sure you throw up prot spirit first and LS second, otherwise the LS will trigger first.
i also came up with a new ele hydra build using this principle:

nope. i use the lowest level ascalon (since that was the cheapest to craft). just make sure it has the proper runes on it.
i will play around with an ele version of this tonight if i get free time and if america gets favor. ><

yes, prot spirit's description is you cannot take more than 10% of max health, sorry if someone alraedy pointed taht out but im too lazy to look at all these posts 
Aces Paladin
where abouts is this build useful.? hard mode where? in places without vamp/life stealing mobs... low degen... etc? an example of a good place to use this build is?

Sounds like a rad plan, for say boss farming... but farming groups upon groups would not be effecient as you'd need to keep dying to get the DP back again...
The terra tank is a tricky build, but once you get used to it it's magic!!! GL with it

Seems limited as you won't beable to solo farm any missions, or UW unless you had a friend with ya. Good idea anyways. Also, would take awhile to kill monsters 1 by 1
