55 monk still works?
majurglery
Well, its been a while (1+years) since ive played GW and i am starting to get back into it. My question is can i still use my 55 monk to farm places that i could before (troll cave, UW w/SS, Etc), and are there any new places? Any help will be appreciated.

Yep, everything is still exactly the same as 1 year ago.
(You know, Anet is a bit lazy.....Sometimes.)
Btw, ofcourse GW Nightfall and GW:EN got released, so it should even be easier with all the new (PvE-Only) Skills which you can use.

Ye sit can but most of those places are not worth it.

Enlighten me. Which places are worth it to farm?
ArralCloudwind
ectos are about 3k now

Under the GWGuru banner there should be some buttons like "55", "ob/ss ele", "sf sin", with a small green orb next to it. When ANet nerfs something that makes the build unusable, the orb turns red.

Hopefuly it will never go Red.

I've made a lot of gold running the Cathedral of Flames on Hard Mode in Doomlore Shrine. The runners are a 600 monk with a smiter. http://www.pvxwiki.com/wiki/Build:Team_-_600/Smite_UW <-- there's the build.
You can't 55 it but the those builds are just as easy to set up.

tbh i think undead outside Bergen Hotsprings is the best 55 farm in my experience with the game, somethin like 2.5k every 15mins

Been a while since I have been there.

Gates of Kryta is still pretty good for Golds to ID and merch as well.

For fun, I got my new monk character to Droks at level 3. Using a regular monk tome, an elite monk tome and a bunch of Stars of Transference I loaded him up with skills.
I have never 55'd before, but I thought I could start power leveling from here to get to a quick level 20 with this build
- editted - meant symbol of wrath not holy wrath - thx Tyla

[protective spirit]

My though was to put all skill points into smiting (gets me to level 4). Put on a healing cap with sup healing (0+1+3) and cast mending. Then cast other permanent enchants. Switch to smiting cap so now level 8 smiting (4+1+3).
Put a sup protection rune in someplace (0+1+3).
I used an HP+30 offhand and had I think 20 HP. Took down a few avicari - slowly - but haven't got to a pack of trolls yet.
This gonna work - or should I change out some skills ?
BTW - secondary is Necro so I thought of putting insidious parasite in for some healing as well and removing Holy wrath. Also thought of balthazars aura.
I want to get this figured out pretty quickly so I can start powerlevelling others while I am only level 5 LOL - just think it is funny watching a level 3-5 tanking and killing level 24's

Wouldn't being a 55 HP Monk contradict the idea of Holy Wrath?

And you would LOLWTF die in 5 hits.
HariTec
LOLWTF die in 5 hits with Hoy Wrath in there ? or in general.
Cause certainly 4-5 avicari are no trouble even with their damned savage slash or whatever interrupting SoJ once in while? At 20 Hp with protective spirit up all the time mending + watchful seems to give all the healing I need

The energy loss will kill you.
You lose 8 energy everytime an enemy hits you providing you have Balth Spirit and Essence Bond on you, and that will not give you enough room in your energy to recast PSpirit. The Avicara will kill you after your enchantments end and you die.

I made a mistake in the original post which I changed right after you posted tyla. I meant symbol of wrath not holy wrath - want a damage spell that I could use that was low energy and might finish off lurkers where few hits were leadign to slow energy gain - figured symbol of wrath at 5 enregy every 30 seconds would make sure I could get enough energy to keep up prot spirit even with just one avicari fierce attacking me.
