This build is meant to farm the fire imps+ bog skales in North Kryta Province in HM mode




Have armor+10 elemental/earth on all armor pieces
Must have 20% enchant<-----
Leave from D'Allesio Seaboard
Put up Mantra, stone striker stoneflesh, then right b4 you aggro imps, glyph+ OF
This way you can keep up Ob Flesh infinitly and stoneflesh thus taking zero dmg throughout whole run with infinite energy.

Imps do break aggro from churning earth, but that's AFTER they take all the damage from it, and they run like 2 inches back for 2 seconds and instantly come back, so no biggie. After casting churning, pick a target, ebon hawl+ glowstone to death, then repeat for next target. They like to ball up too alot making this run ever faster and fun!

Avoid the tengu, Unlike imps they can still do dmg to you even with all that armor and damage negation on you ><




Actual map of path i take ( You can go on to clear more imps and all bog skale, but i lose patience by then ^^)


DROPS

are: * Glowing Heart
* Lump of Charcoal
* Scale
* Ruby

They like to drop charcoals a lot in lumps of 3-5 which sell for 500-800g at merchant.
Enjoy ^^ Il try to provide video soon,
Small notes- insignias vs ele dmg + 20% enchant= mega crucial to keep everything up at all times. You can do it without 20% enchant, but the imps will manage to sneek in 1 rodgort's or 2 every now and then causing major burning ><

I've been farming them along with the Tengu over there on my Rt/Me. Imps appear to drop lots of rubies and sapphires.

ive been doing this farm for quite a wile with my 55 monk and its relatively easy. But you do need to be useing some form of protection damage reduction skill with your monk if u want to agro a big number or you die .

I've tried this build out, it works well, and can even kill a Bog Skate boss.

I like I like... This might overwrite stone elementals as my new stable farming build.

Is this boss along the way? Grab a few tomes along the run

Sapphires? intriguing, wiki doesnt say that imps or bogs drop sapphires but i like the rt/me idea. I suppose if u could use +armor vs ele insignias to reduce the dmg to 37 and brought resilient wep against burning it would be possible. You'd have energy problems though. Channeling wouldn't work as you cant get that near them, they'll use inferno which will roast you (Neither OB Flesh nor VwK will kick in against it)

I've been doing this for quite a long time. Rubies are actually quite hard to come by though, I got like 1 every 15-20 runs, maybe just bad luck though haha. Usually on avg around 10k an hour + some useful golds once in a while. Overall its nice run, but I liked it better when Charcoal was actually 200g each

edit: I actually did this on monk, hehe. maybe ele is faster/better drops, I wouldnt know

I use a modified Glyphe of Renewal+Silver Armor build to take these guys out. You need Armor of Earth to cut the damage, though, and glyph of restoration to combat the burning. I useually make my way out of D'Alessio and then head towards Scoundrel's Rise. Normally you'll find multiple bosses along the way. The ele boss and necro boss are easy to kill, and the Ettin boss is possible as long as you have some imps or scale fueling your Silver Armor.

Avoid the ranger boss. Please. =)

But yeah, the drops are useually kinda nice to me too =)

Have you tried your build on the Inferno Imps outside of Fisherman's Haven?

Have you tried your build on the Inferno Imps outside of Fisherman's Haven? You beat me to it - yes, I used the exact GR+SA build you are talking about, and it's actually easier with 2-3 slots free for other skills on bar.

I haven't got a ruby or sapphire yet, but I would like to add that I once got an ecto from these imps. It was in NM before HM was even introduced.

Gash
Standing Slash
Counterattack
Dolyaks
Vig Sprit
Mending (YES, MENDING! to counter the degen).

Easy to farm

This is much easier with a rt/me i bring mantra of flame and physical resistance mantra for the imps so u have limitless energy for spamming vengeful weapon and vwk. Physical for the bosses. You can kill all the bosses including the ranger u just need to time your skills in between shots and use arcane echo when she uses a trap.

btw other then that its just a standard echo vwk build.

i farmed 500 charcoal off em be4 EoTN and made a killing

are you sure fire imps drop ruby?

PS: you also forgot to delete your character name underneath your character.... thought you might want to correct that since you darken all the other name instances.

This is better IMO, can also do Tengu and skales. Not sure about speed.

Oh... yeah. Replace Mending with Live Vicariously. Made some mods and it should work now with LV
