HM Spectral Vaettir (Glacial Stones mainly)
BuyMoore
This build absolutely rocks! After just four runs, I have 26 glacial stones. I did not get many golds as some people said they did. I only got one gold during the four runs.

just as a side note, do not have Blood Washes Blood unfinished or the lower half of spawns do not appear, meaning only 36 spectrals to kill.

Here's the build i have used for quite some time now.....
Glyph of Swiftness
Obsidian Flesh
Sliver Armor
Storm Djinn's Haste
Crystal Wave
Tanai's Crystals
Mantra of Earth
Stoneflesh Aura
I have full geomancer armor, +20% enchant staff, 16 earth, 4 air, 9 inspiration, the rest in energy storage......you dont need much energy, it will be FULL the whole time regardless.
I use storm djinn's to speed up the run there, and the runs themselves. With the extra run speed, you don't get bodyblocked (since ob flesh slows u to a crawl). Like this you can do all 60 of them in HM in about 4 to 5 minutes if you cut it into 2 groups and use glyph of swiftness twice per recharge of ob flesh...(once on ob flesh and sliver, once on the crystals).

I had my doubts about this build, but I am very impressed. There is no AoE so they don't run around. Very solid. Thank you.

Bar has been working great for me. Record time w/o speed buff is 6 mins. I can manage to get them in 2 large aggros. Like others, I have noticed fewer drops when the "death blow" that kills them is anything but Silver Armor. Tons of Golds, plenty of glacial stones, few r9 swords, lockpicks, mesmer tomes, but no dyes other than, strangely enough, green and purple

I like to speed it up by using crystal wave/teinai's heat 5 times (not each, but overall) so they are on very little health, then let Sliver kill them off.

can you usse this build to farm elemental swords too? or is the damage the moniliths do too high for armor? just wondering cause then you could have non stop time in temple instead of running in and out.
kainmodious
ok i just tried it and it dont work they can interupt you pretty fast so you cant get obsidian flesh up then they just degen the crap out of you.

they dont have a skill that will interrupt you...
with 16 Earth and 20% mod you should have OB all the time before it runs out...

Margonite Executioners have knockdown (Magehunter's Smash).
You can pretty much have non-stop time in the temple with Air of Superiority, unless you get REALLY unlucky, killing ~20-30 things will almost guarantee a recharge.

If anyone want to use a E/M to farm the ele sword, just check
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10233592 (two or less links below this one) or similar thread and just dont OT on this one plz :P
By the way... i Just try some more things... but original build looks good enough to just use it....
I still wanna know why anet didnt nerfed the place and/or any skill on the build.... ^^ I think that part of wisdom title could be done there (i bring the 100 identification kit, rofl).
And if you are really (really really) bored ya could get "infinite" norn points til max level (160k) but... doing about 150 -250 points each run.... maybe it's too much. I am currently norn rank 3 (only hehe).

I have been doing this run for a couple months, a bit bored with it, but there is really never a time where you have to worry about getting damage/hexed as long as you are paying attention and your connection is operating properly. If I die, 99.99% of the time it is because I am too greedy and trying to cast 1 more time, OR I am just not paying attention. The reason Sliver Armor is good here is because if you kill them all at once as most people have seen you get less drops, with Sliver Armor, you are able to kill them in a more spread out time. Typically I will cast the 2 crystal spells, then Light of Deldrimor, then kick into Sliver, typically things start dying then, and continue to as time goes on. As long as you have your 20% enchant mod weapon and 1/2 a clue, this farm is quite easy and has some very nice drops. Platinum Broadswords, Mammoth Blades, Steel Broadswords drop on a semiregular basis

I've been using a variation on that my last few runs. I have been hitting arcane echo, then the two crystal waves, then the echo'd one, then wait for the recharge and hit both waves again, so a total of five hits, then kick in the arcane echo and sliver armou. so you never kill more then 1 at a time. Been getting decent drops as well.

I want to say thank you!
In 2 runs I got 6 golds (1 perfect bow) and 18 stones. I died couple of times because I'm still not used to build (and went without geo insignias just to try), but 15 dp easilly reach 0 after next few kills. With some armour modifications I'll hope I will have that gloves soon.

I found that this build works great w/ my shield on my ele that has -2 when in stance. Because I'm always in a stance (mantra) I never take dmg and I could probly get all the guy at once.

Ya can get them all at once without the shield and having insignias too. The only problem is that they have their zone and they will return to there if they are pulled so much. I tried... I like to make good & impressive videos hehe. But the best I can do without "fleeing" monsters is 2 big groups...
I like a photo if they are all in the same "spot" dying together!

Well practice makes perfect - I have collected 100 glacial stones and got gloves
I don't die anymore - actually I die only if Wrom spawns in my way while running to Vaettires. Bit more practice in solo-farming and I will be ready to try UW.

Actually the -2(physical damage) stance shield makes no difference as the Vaettires deal earth(elemental damage).

I don't know if anybody has mentioned this, but the run is a lot easier if you use a casters weapon set for the run. If you go with a mellee set a worm spawns and uses Wurm Bile on you that I find makes the run almost impossible, if not outright impossible.

Wol This isnt related to the type of weapon you use, just bad luck. I do this run often enough and last night I had to bad runs almost back to back wielding my earth staff. One near the start with a worm appearing, knocking me down and casting wurm bile. The second with me almost getting to the next zone with the 3 wurms appear, the green wurm boss and two other wurms.

I still take 0 damage when I dont use armor of earth so I replaced it with storm djinn's for faster runs ;o
baz777
Not sure if any one else is interested in this but due to the large amount of white/blue drops you get I also take 6 salvage kits and salvage materials, mainly wood/iron.
Purchase Perfect Salvage Kits and sell for 1.5k each.
Saves leaving all those drops on the ground and allows you to re-zone more often without having to merch all the items.

I've been doing this run for a very long time and always without a geomancer's insignia then stopped farming for a while. Today I tried it again and they were hitting 1's and 2's on me, was there an update that changed something? Because they never used to do any damage to me.
stretchs
I have not used Armor of the Earth since my 1st day on the farm, no real need. I use that spot for extra damage, I have been bringing Light of Deldrimor for the armor ignoring damage. You can put anything in that spot, even if you want a running skill. As for the worms, you are screwed if one spawns, pretty much gg nub and start again unfort. It really is annoying. The farm is great though, always getting full loads of gold before I go back to hall. The rinse and repeat factor of it makes it one of my fav farms, and really as long as you have your head out of your backside once used to it, you shouldnt die, and even if you do, you can easily continue on as dp goes away quickly.

I'm trying this for the first time right now and it's great.
I forgot to put on geomancers insignia but I still don't take any damage so it's
all good and all go.
Thanks, Ragnagard

No need for geo's here really. I am considering taking arcane echo instead of one of the wave skills to see the drop differential between gradual killing of sliver armor over the mass aoe kill of the wave skills. I am going to try to catalog my drops each run with the skills to see if there is a major difference in their effectiveness

Got a new fav way to do this build....

[skill]Obsidian Flesh[/skill]
[skill]Light of Deldrimor[/skill]
[skill]Crystal Wave[/skill]
[skill]Teinai's Crystals[/skill]
[skill]Storm Djinn's Haste[/skill]
[skill]Mantra of Earth[/skill]
[skill]Stoneflesh Aura[/skill]
With max Deldrimor Title Track.....you do 80 holy damage....which like the Crystal spells, ignores armor. You dont have to wait for stupid echo to recharge either
