The 55ers farm the Dwarves (I think it's those, I hate Proph) right outside, mainly for money and golds, nothing else though

But that spawn needs a Enchant Stripper badly.

55s do a lot better against knockdown than terra farmers, I think.

Anywhere but Guild Wars now, sadly.

It's a shame, this game had so much potential, but is ruined due to stale gameplay and lame updates

Think of it this way. If a bot gets 1 stone summit badges, and that bot owner is running 100 bots, all day every day. How much does that come out to ? Some where in the hundred thousands atleast. And how much work did the bot owner do ? 0 So some bots could just be farming stone summit badges :P

Shows how much you know!

Stone Summit Badges have an natural price of 8gold

At one of the collectors 5 Stone summit badges will get you an item worth 125gold.

5 x 8 = 40gold

125 - 40 = 85gold

Thats 85gold profit.

Now before you bust out with "thats not much of a profit!", remember that when the farming code kicked in, you were more likely to get collector items and general crap. Actually increasing the number of collector items you got.
Since loot scalling, even with what Anet says, its not the case.

And bots farm 24/7/365, they use to amass a few stone summit badges.

250 stack/5 badges = 50 items
50 x 85 = 4'250gold from a stack of stone summit badges

Well, for all your info. Bots sell all the stuff they find. Including those badges.

Your wrong, the general carp is sold. But more often then now you'll find a farmer trading with bots once in a while to collect gold and decent items.

I love it when people chime in without knowing anything about gold farmers and bots.

Try google-ing alil info atleast.

Or they go farm those avicara ranger groups in mineral springs, they were dam easy to farm in NM with SoA or even shielding hands.
If you could get there in HM it would be a nice spot to farm since there's a merchant and portal nearby

55hp bots don t bother about what to farm...
one guy just got a program running that he can play on 10 guild wars account at the same time, with each on them a bot farming something...
I assure you that after not to much time he got 100k which he sells on ebay etc and with that he renews the accounts that got banned by Anet for farming...
look at althrumn ruins international... and what is to farm there? only one patrol of wardens... but they farm it because it is possible

I could be wrong though, and if I am some one please feel free to correct me.

I usually get around one IDS an hour, plus other drops.

Works like a charm
