I don't have mending because i see it as a waste of a slot here ... you don't really need it hb is mainly used to counter the degen... if u put mending in there you are bring ur energy regen down to +1 and it still doesnt counter all the degen thats why i dont use it

Mystic Regeneration makes mending + healing breeze, obsolete

Has anyone tried this area with the (Mutu, the Oldest Child) quest active? I remember dealing with a lot of undead with this quest just haven’t tried it in hardmode and can’t remember if they drop anything.

Is that quest available to non-NF characters? I can't seem to get it from Healer Zenwa.

Yes. I use the following (I suspect there is some changes would make it better, I have had little time with it):
10 Protection Prayers
16 Scythe Mastery
3 Wind Prayers
9 Earth Prayers
9 Mysticism
[skill]Protective Spirit[/skill][skill]Mystic Regeneration[/skill][skill]Shielding Hands[/skill][skill]Mirage Cloak[/skill][skill]Heart of Holy Flame[/skill][skill]Reaper's Sweep[/skill][skill]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill][skill]Essence Bond[/skill]
It is hard to do two groups at once unless you suicide first so the very first group of three can be difficult to pull successfully. It takes a bit longer than a 55 monk, but it is doable. If, like me, that is your title hunting character it isn't bad to do because of the occasional chest and I still need some more skill points for the Skill Hunter title.
As for the skills, unless you suicide all the time you will need to stagger Shielding Hands and Mirage Cloak. While there is only a short time that Shielding Hands will not be up, you just take too much damage with 130 health. Heart of Holy Flame converts your damage to holy which doubles damage against undead (on the casters it isn't unusual to see well over a hundred damage per swing). Reaper's Sweep works well against the bosses, I also tried Heart of Fury for the IAS, although it made the normal mobs drop a little faster I found Reapers to be better over all. I also tried staggering Shielding Hands and Shield of Absorption but found I had trouble making sure the enchants all went up in the right order, I found times that I died simply because the recharge/activation times made it so that *something* had to not be up - but your mileage may vary.
I do not see why one can not create a Shield of Judgment build as they take double damage from it - but I haven't given it a go. Plus you can use the -50 health offhand making it easier to live.

“Move a long there is nothing to see here”
Update to earlier post “Mutu, the Oldest Child”
"Holy undead fest Batman" this is a fun one for a 55 Monk, but a little tricky at the start. Lots and lots and lots and lots of undead to slay And they do drop things made 6k+ a black dye in one full clear the area sweep and a couple starter runs trying to figure out things(all in Hardmode). Spent about 1hour and 30 minutes (Getting all the quests to access this one and running the quest a few times figuring things out) Unfortunately for most you have to have a Elona born character to run this one, and it is repeatable if you "Stay away from Muto". Word of advice "Stay away from Muto" And Have fun

Just as Painbringer said Avoid Muto so once you get taken to the area just walk around him (Don't let your bubble touch him) then you will be fine... otherwise he follows you then gets smashed lol

I've used quite similar build as strcpy's dervish build and it's just a couple minutes faster than my monk. But i had my own variation
The skills that I've used on my variation.
Prot spirit
Mystic regen
Shielding hands
Shield of absorbation
Reapers sweep[E]
Mystic sweep
Heart of holy flame
bathazars spirit
the attributes are the same as normal the 130hp dervish uses.

Day 2 “Mutu, the Oldest Child” Did the quest again in hardmode. I did 2 runs about a ¼ to1/2 of the full distance you can go. Had an aggro problem otherwise would have finished it. And then finished ¾ of the run and had to sprint to the final boss (Running out of time for the night) 5k worth of junk (Bunch of blue inscribable dead bows and sephis axes. I have gotten gold once off this run so chances are good to get a good one sometime.) also a Elite Warrior Tome off the Tomb Guardian.

When you pass through the gate before you get to Muto hug the wall. Run at the wall the whole way around him once at the bridge slowly work your way around the bridge corner and you should be ok.
Been getting a bunch of gold’s

Why not lure him into the traps inside the indoor area?

He will die and this is a mini mission like quest so it is game over. Plus the hordes of hard mode dead chop him down in a few seconds if he follows you. All other doors except the quest area are closed. I tried once to get him stuck on the environment but no luck.

I'm curious as to how long each one took. I bothered to time the run today (just while in the zone, not including id'ing/selling stuff). My Dervish finished it in roughly 28 minutes and the 55 monk in roughly 22 (I also kill the first three groups of skales - I have gotten some good drops from them and the Dervish kills them quickly).
sirgad
Anyone have an ELEM build for this run?
Risa
I've been farming this, myself. The real jewel of this run are the mods you recieve. With the large amount of rares you'll get from it, there are plenty of chances to get some superb mods & inscriptions. The only rares I've been keeping are the Sephis axes. I've been merching the dead swords & bows (People wont buy these anymore.) after removing their decent mods. Got a Sword Pommel of Fortitude + 30. :O
Fuzzy Taco
/agree with the great mods. i get tons of ancient shields, and i've gotten a bunch of -5/20% mods, hp + 30 for bow, sword, and axe, and tons of e+5 and 15^50 inscrips.
van
I have gotten some awesome mods here. Sundering 20/20 for sword, 20% Enchant, Fortitude +30. But more recently I haven't gotten any dead swords which really suprises me. Anybody else have this occurenece or maybe its just me?
Darkfish
I'm having some trouble with the really big group of skales, they always just scatter after a couple of Shields, do I have to position them in some way to kill them?
Hole Sale Traps
You dont have to kill them at all, just go inside after you kill the group blocking the way.

Cara Mandrake
What mob dropped the fiery bladed axe for you?
Destinyy
If you careful and play it right you can lure the skale out 3 at a time... they all come at you but just keep running till u see em breaking off you then stop, you should have only 3 following after.
I have taken to 130 derving this farm now as the dervish absolutely decimated the undead... I get damages of 250 showing up when I use Reapers Sweep on a Restless Dead...
Sunday I ran this run and got 4 dead swords on one run... I have started giving the swords away as gifts to my guildies...
I farm this run for cash and upgrades... my heros are now fully kitted with dead bows, dead swords, ancient chields, etc...

I haven't posted in a long time and just observed...came back to GW from EVE online recently...did this run and....
I got 7 golds which included a req 10 dead sword, and 2 req 10 maxdmg Sephis Axes....rest was merchant food...
By the way, this was probably my 10th run
Sorry for no screenshots, don't have to believe me xD
What do you guys think, will they wtfpwnnerf this run soon?

Nah, I don't see em nerfing it as it's not really an exploit run. They'll prolly nerf Arborstone or Bergen before this run.
And dude, I do indeed believe you hey!!! drops are very cool... I've begun merching my dead swords now...

Please test your statements before you make yourself look foolish.
Reversal of Damage is applied before Prot spirit, SoA, etc. It does max damage no matter what.

They also drop fiery blade axes but those have tanked some in value (along with everything else in GW). Destinyy

I have gotten a firey Blade ax from the scale at point three and that was on only one run out of many. But I only farm 1 Scale group of 3 maybe I need to start farming more scale.
Destinyy
I kill all the scale outside before I go into the building, I been doing this farm for 2 weeks 3 or 4 times a night and no blade axe yet... I will keep going!!!

im currently using this build, but my only problem is the frigid skales that block the entrance way to the building. they keep on casting icy shackles on me and whenever i try to kill them, SoJ doesn't work. my build is everything except i replace hb with mystic and spear for featherfoot grace. acn anybody tell me what to do?? ty
lellyville
umm i got like 15 dead swords among other stuff in the first 5 runs, and after that i got like nothing but purples, and more purples even purple from chests, i shall be called Purple Man from now one. But seriously do you guys think this place is nerfed?

No luck for me unfortunately. It's been 6 or 7 runs so far.
Am doing a Mo/D SOJ/Holy Wrath 55, but the only gold I got was a max req9 tactics Ancient Shield with +44hp (enchanted) and -2 physical damage (stance) mods. Lots of merch purples and blues plus tons of skale teeth and claws. Call me skale guy then No Dead Swords. I taught a friend how to 55 on his monk and he, however got one. I'm reserving the next Dead Sword he drops for me as "payment" for teaching him to go 55 And I got Dead Bows up to my eyeballs from the Gates of Kryta Mission, anyway. I have better luck elsewhere, but not by much. My terratank ele got a r13 Icy Bladed Axe from the spiders just outside the Sunspear Great Hall, and not much else. My monk got more golds at zehlon reach, but not the Collosal Scimitars I was looking for. Still farming in between title-chasing and missions for that elusive Fiery Bladed Axe and Dead Sword darrengordon
Hi Guildboy ref your SOJ problem, you should have 14 or 15 in smite and also you should be using the lengthen enchant spell and the weapon to give you 20+30-33% more on your enchants. This should virtually kill em if not finish em witha wand and i also take the signet of mystic (forget name the one that does damage per how many enchant you have on) does 200 damage to undead or 100 to norm. They should drop real easy if not staff em or just recast SOJ. Hope this helps
Destinyy
I just set a new personal best last night of 32 minutes for the entire run on my Dervish, that's all the skale and undead and the 2 bosses...
I LOVE this run, got a perfect Blairewood Scythe last night too... van
For the First time I tried killing that big group of skale got a req 10 Icy Blade Ax of Warding on the first drop. So I guess the skale drop some good stuff
