I prefer to run the entire mission with H/H. It is about half as good in terms of core/min (solo: 2cores/5mins, H/H: 4cores/20mins) but I also get an armor piece, which is +6-8 cores at current market prices and H/H is more fun for me.
Btw, I found a Mo/E solo build that can run this both NM and HM. But I found the build so difficult to run, I stopped playing it entirely after I mastered it (if you wanna suffer, the build is: Shielding Hands, Prot Spirit, Glyph of Swiftness, Obs Flesh, Spell Shield, Balthazas's Spirit, Blessed Aura, Sliver Armor; earth12, air5, divine9+4, prot8+3, HP105 with +20%enchant and +20/20% prot recharge)
(but nice builds dont feel no pain)

thx for the feedback..... that mo/e build seems like a streessful version of the normal obsideon tank build which is the best for this =)

Id there any benifit, except from the xp and possibly better golds and merchant fodder, in HM. If you are farming for destroyer cores. then it makes more sense to do it in normal mode. So is it worth doing it in HM, or is it just for the challenge or because you can?
dont feel no pain
Hm = better fodder + golds
Nm = More cores... i assume
Best pro's
NM = Ranger
Hm = Warrior or Ele (only one that can do lol)

Is it just me, or are the runs getting harder because the Destroyer Mesmers are using Chaos Storm?

Kinda hard to maintain VwK... ?

well if you keep staying in chaosstorm you don't have to wonder why you don't have any energy o_O

Kinda hard to maintain VwK... ? Are you using a staff? I think the AI uses skills depending on what weapons you're holding.
Try using a non-caster weapon set and see if that helps.

Kinda hard with Dolyaks up 24/7...
And yeah, I was using a staff for a bigger energy boost after I drop VwK.
I'll just stick to a +5 Axe then. Thanks for the reply.

As I said here, thanks for the build.
I tried it yesterday and yawn at NM so I jumped in HM.
One question though, whats your % of survival in HM. I find it that sometime I get huge spikes of damage that I die from.
Do the mobs of the change from mission to mission? More mesmers, more eles etc?
I found that it can be a breeze in one time and hard the next.
Also the drops really diminished the after two runs.
EDIT: I saw the post above and yeah I move away from chaos storm, and as for caster or martial weapon, I used both and kinda get the same results.

Just saw the bonneti and lion's comfort post, will try those and will go back to the martial weapons, although its not the chaos storms I used to die from, its the spike from their damage.
dont feel no pain
I see... hmmm HM got bad spikes.. but NM is pretty lame on spikes.. i can do it warrior and ranger with just plain old VWK, no other skills, kinda dumb farming XD, and theres no skill involved with that, I DO SUGGEST SENTINAL INSIGS
Oblivious Moose

for normal mode just bring [skill]Vengeful Was Khanhei[/skill] , its all you need =]
willypiggy
I will work on a Dervish version now.
dont feel no pain
verish... conviction + vwk should do XD

Yea, i have been trying but its just not working, I just keep getting hit with [skill]Spirit Rift[/skill]
Moriean
You have to dodge the Rifts, run around a bit.
dont feel no pain
nbah you dont, i dont dodge them =D
willypiggy
lol, got it working, lasted for about a minute then I got spiked during the small downtime when holding the ashes. also, whenever i cast weapon Vengeful Weapon on myself it just disappears.
Oblivious Moose
it goes away so fast because it triggers on the next time you get hit. with all those things hitting you so frequently, im not suprised that you dont see it on you at all.
as for the NM using just VwK, thats fine, im looking for a variant to actually do HM, as my luck is crappy. and more gold items will hopefully help make that luck, not so horrible... maybe..worth a try...
willypiggy
Ahhhh, that makes sense, heh, there was me thinking it lasted for ages.
Ambuu
haha i just had a very embarrassing moment.
I was doing this (in HM) and I was like "dangit why cant i kill these guys?" 5 minutes later... "I was in hard mode? ohhhhh...." *face turns red* never realized i was in hardmode lol

EDIT: I'm starting to get a hang of it! But.... My computer cant handle it anymore. gw freezes up everytime i start doing good.
Sprites
well i'm spiked to death in normal , ranger , with hero ...
i always die when i cannot recharge WVK edit : done after re-watching vid ... some nasty spikes , i play ["i am unstoppable"]
dont feel no pain
^^ good to hear ya all getting the hang of it
, and ranger and rit are the fastest.
govolunteers05
Wouldn't Winter and Greater Conflagration work?
and use Mantra of Frost It would manage the damage, and also the energy wouldn't be a problem. of course, for Rt/Me or Me/Rt.
Sprites
i've tried HM , been crushed by 1st spike of rifts
but well i've 476 health , not 800+ as the warrior ^^ |
