Farming..out of touch

I'm a bit out of touch with GW, haven't played since factions, but have just picked up GW:EN & NF and enjoying it again...but with new characters and new things to do comes new needs, money!

I used to 55 monk prot bond UW etc back before it was nerfed, but am a bit out of touch with the latest 55 monk build, and theres plenty of them in the sticky..anyone advise which is best? I also want to have a go at farming GWEN, but am under the impression HM is the only way to go; I assume I have to 'complete' GW:EN before I can access HM, so should i just hold off farming until i have done so?

Cheers for help in advance

Right now if you want golds try the 330 rit. Also I recommend completing GWEN, but who am I to tell you what to do, eh? It's your decision, of course.

Yes, the 330HP is efficient, but that doesn't mean 55 is useless. I suggest you continue the game with it. Perhaps you should finish both games first so you gain access to Hard Mode, which gives you much better drops.

PS: After the release of Nightfall, there are several new Dervish skills that can be used on a 55 Monk build. Mystic Regeneration, which is... a loads better version of Healing Breeze, and relies on you having more Enchantments to be effective. There's also Fleeting Stability, which prevents you from being knocked down is quite useful in some places...

I am in the process of completing GWEN, but dont have as much time as I used to; is it worth farming around Waijun Bazaar or should I venture further into luxon/kurzick territory?

Ok cool...I might have a go at farming UW again with my monk in the mean time whilst I complete factions/gwen/nightfall to gain access to HM!

@ FUjin: I was trying to recommend him the 330 rit but in a different way, I'm not denying 55 is useless, of course not, how could I be so stupid and say that?
