The Big Necro Farming Guide!

Rit Yetis in Pongmei use Vengeful, but for some reason my SS Triggers it? So im not able to do that run.
My Lipgloss is Cool
Do it with [skill]Spoil Victor[/skill]
It's Life loss, not damage so it won't trigger VW, and bring Vamp Gaze or something to finish them off
EDIT; Muhahaha! Beat Noodle by seconds! SECONDS!!!

quick tip: don't use SV in Pongmei. don't autoattack either. Vengeful triggers on ANY damage, meaning SS damage or autoattacks. the SV/Suffering build works perfectly there.

Hrm, would you think that your Totem Axe build would work utilizing a Mo/R? It appears as though it should.
Awesome guide; however, I don't have a Necromancer. =[

It should...Soul Reaping just makes it go faster...Monking could make for a better self heal than Healing Spring, though Wind Riders have [skill]Shatter Enchantment[/skill] so avoid enchantments with them...
Fuzzy Taco
the Totem Axe build is kind of a Any/R build. as long as you have a zealous bow, it can be done.

Hmm thanks, xD god i love you Fuzzy

how do i hide behind benton?
Fuzzy Taco
Hiding behind Benton is a mystical art perfected over the ages, which is now a secret protected by gnomes and druids of the maguuma. 
but really, all you need to do to hide behind Ben is check out these pictures:
This is how you use him for the group on the left - just sneak in through that little space on my left in that picture.
This is how you use him for the group on the right. sneak in from my right in the picture and run through that same little path you ran through in the first photo. then they'll be bodyblocked behind him.
Considering this has been such a problem for so many people, i guess it's time to make an Underworld movie. expect one over the weekend!

a very long time ago when protective bond was king! and it took me forever to learn the ways of maguuma ninjas and perfect it too

weird... when i try to duo UW with my hero the hero casts mending and balths on me but they dont stay... any help please?

With all hero enchantments, you have to disable them (SHIFT+click on skill) for them to maintain spells on you.
This comes from the AI having a different idea on what maintains are for...Rather than keeping them up constantly, they want to use it when you need it, then take it off when you don't.

This is a really fantastic guide. Thanks again, Fuzzy!
By the way, have you tried either Charr Invaders or Service: In Defense of the Eye in Hard mode, yet? The two quests are of course mutually exclusive, but they seem promising for anyone who still has them.

I know Noodle's done Charr Invaders, because he needed to do it so he could get his Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support, which he runs in a [skill]Assassin's Promise[/skill][skill]Barbs[/skill][skill]Mark of Pain[/skill] build
But I doubt he's done IDotE, but that does have a lot of knockdowns, interrupts, and healing...I think 55 won't be able to survive it, and 600 wouldn't be able to out damage the healing.

I think farming during the Defend North Kryta quest outside Lion's Arch is really profitable and not really difficult. The only creatures I can't kill yet no matter what are the Rotting Titans... damn Lingering Curse... the rest is quite easy once you can manage and dodge Water Born Titan's Maelstorm easily.
Are there any tips for killing Rotting Titans? (besides casting PS and HB immediately after Lingering Curse is cast on us).

Which would be the best area to farm this weekend for Eggs+ Bunnies?
Fuzzy Taco
This is magnificent for event items. also, you can 600SS/Smite raptors with two accounts / a hero.
Fuzzy Taco
alright guys, mini-poll: i'm going to be writing a guide on the 600SS/SBSmite team build, which i've been having massive success with. i'm torn between adding it to the old 600SS/SBSmite guide, or adding it to this one, or making a new one entirely. what do you guys think?
Awakener
new one entirely, make it more set out, easier to follow =]
and well done. I'm amazed on how the hell you do this :P

Yay! My necro's gonna hug some vermins right away!!
Zhoul
Nice!... Btw that's at Xaquang Skyway, isn't it?
stogez
I like the nice "Approved" tag. Can't wait to try this out. Time to take a break from spiders to kill some vermin. Now if only there was a N/x build for Raptors.

Love the new guide, but i have a question, whenever i do the yeti runs in mount quinkai (or however its spelled) i can never kill the monk boss, because his withdraw hexes takes off suffering AND Spoil Victor. is there any special way to do this?
Fuzzy Taco
the monk boss is definitely doable in Qinkai - group him next to one or two other yetis, then use suffering, let him waste his Withdraw, cast SV on him, cover with Suffering, repeat until he eats dirt.
Dark Tykane
can that bond monk be a hero?

Yes, of course. It's preferrable to use a hero. Flag well out of agro, but still in compass range.

About Devilmans' bonder monk, would it not be better to drop Healing Prayers to 9, and bump Divine Favor to 9? There's only the one healing spell (mending) and it's breakpoint for +3 regen is at level 8. With the extra points in DF, the hero would get a lot more e from the signet too. I don't know what rune's it's using, but this seems better to my eyes.
On a slightly related note, do heroes use [skill]Signet of Devotion[/skill] at all? I haven't seen them use it, but if they do, it could be a decent swap on the bonders' bar for the pve skill.

Very nice guide 
This made me want to get my 55 Necro out again.
I have a question though. For the diviner's ascent farm, you say that jade scarabs are not a big deal and you just have to cover your PS, but they do remove 2 buffs with chillblains ... ok that's still not a very big deal, bug what if they are several and spike you with chillblains ?
cause i only find them by groups of 2 to 5 or 6, so maybe i don't get some point of the farm or maybe i has been nerfed since the post creation, but this doesn't look easy to me

vermins use Heart of Shadow in HM

the may teleport right into U bonders agro line. I see, w/ the rune(s) it makes sense.

Jade Scarabs are nasty, but you can handle the groups with one Jade that spawn over near the boss spawns. you can't handle more than one - the most recent edition of chilblains ensures that. however, go in with PS + HB + SB up and kill him first, and you should have no problem.
EDIT: also, i've been working on a raptor build for NM that is quick, dependable, and kills the boss. i can easily kill the babies, but the boss has been giving me a hard time. i have a few solutions in mind that i'm hoping i can try today - the raptors should be nice for Asura rep and weekend events.

Nice. Looking forward to that one.

Any reason this isn't a sticky?
I would hate to see this terrific guide fall by the way side.
Just my opinion.

as posted in the other thread, i've nearly got a N/A build together for HM Raptors - i'm going to finish testing it and post it today. although i am going to a Bruins game, i should be able to get it finished.
Fuzzy Taco
added Raptors + Vermin, updated Ice Cliff Chasms.
i'm going to start working on a 600SS/SBSmite guide this weekend, the team build is godly and i'd rather not squeeze it into this beast of a guide.
