Hi @ll!
I have new chalange, to make a build to farm on Hard Mode. The place where I wanna farm is Rihlon Refuge. When you follow left passage there is a place where you can find Zelnehlun Fastfoot with a lot of his companions. I can easily farm there on normal mode and there is a few builds for necro and ele to farm there on HM. I wanna make a build for dervish to farm there solo.
What I've tried: 130hp dervish with a 16hp - failed, eliteles dervish - failed, D/E with some earth armors + Sliver armor, D/Me with phisical resistance and all I can do is to tank them for a while but not long enough to kill them. The main problem is energy management, because even if I made a build D/E and I tank everything (I recieve 0 dmg) the number of enchantements which I must have on me is to big and after a while my energy goes to low. Do you have any ideas? Maybe there is a way to be non stop on Mist Form and deal dmg with Mirage Cloak + Signet od pious light?

~A Leprechaun~ That gives me an idea...

On Topic: It would help if you told me what professions the enemies you are trying to farm are. I really do not want to look up a boss on Wiki for a thread.

You could check the farming forums for some more information, no doubt.

he is trying to farm spiders. spiders = rangers. And i believe there are no rocks to hide behind in that area. The only thing I don't remember as of yet is if they use Interrupts while in HM.

There are rocks, you can even go to a bridge and spam Mirage Cloak + Signet of pious light and you can kill them...in normal mode, cause in HM they run to you . YOU CAN'T HIDE You say use SS....hmmm worth of try, but how to stand in the place where they atack walls not you?If I use some of the Assasin's teleportation skills it can be done but then I wont take SS :/ The fact is that this place is good to farm with other characters, but I'm suer that Dervish can handle it to, it is just a matter of a good build

That run in NM is doable with a 130 -- The Ntouka at the beginning of the zone can be a pain in the butt though especially if theres a monk....I countered it by using my regular armor keeping spikes off me with PS and wailing away at monk and two other Rampaging Ntouka crowded around him.

Then its die once, lower your health, switch to your 130 armor proceed to kill things, rinse repeat.

NM is not a problem I've tried 3-4 farm builds and it is easy as abc, but normal mode is not a chalange I think i try to capture Spiteful Spirit and made Tank Dervish and deal dmg only with SS, the only problem for me is...energy menagement...

In NM a 130 can do it with -30dp, but in HM i've found only one way that works garunteed. Alot are gonna crit that hes a ranger n that it shouldnt happen but it does --- A/E SOLO GREEN FARMER! first run straight to his location via "the long route" e.g activate shadow form and go over the rocks, hence aggroing ALL his mates. once at him shadow form will run out and you will die.
Now The Second Run, Buff past the nitoka and go round the back. Once he is in sight standard rules apply. Normally this wouldn't work as rangers have natural resistance to ele skills however if you take a moment to actually count how many foes there are all clustered around him you will see that its easy. More Foes = more damage against target.

I can useally run this - kill him, recast shadow form and silver armour and take out another 10 or so before being caught short.

Sometimes you have to take a chance and try again when you fail the first time. How else you think ppl farm?? hmmm???

so now to try and make it derv - well avatar of melandru might help you live longer like shadow form then standard silver armour setup, couple or running skills and maybe convicton and armour boosting. Otherwise just go make a new sin. it took me 22hours to get my sin from birth to first A/E run.
