I love my paragon. It helps because he has pants. (norn armor) but thats besides the point. I want to farm the UW. I need a build to do it. Does any1 have a good build for solo para farming UW? If some1 did, they would get a hug. A BEAR hug. (u can tell im a paragon)

Don't believe you can solo farm uw with a paragon. Maybe graspings with a p/w glad's defense build? Would need dwarven stability and most likely a form of knockdown and on your knees to recharge glad's defense.

I think your pretty much out of luck. Unless you want to go p/mo and do a make shift 600 tank with a smite bonder and another hero to cast spellbreaker.

I don't believe there are any P/ solo builds, at least not to my knowledge.

might be able to go P/Rt and modify a VoK build? VoK, Stand your Ground!, Or maybe a P/W Gladstance etc...? But, I'm not really a biulder, so good luck with that.

Hmm, that's a good idea. Try and adapt the W/Rt VwK build. You've got the armor, you've got more base energy, you've got running skills. Maybe not having Bonetti's Defense could be a problem.

I've seen a handful, but all of them could be done faster and/or easier with another class. The ones I have seen are 2 beach/spider cave FoW builds, a P/Mo IDS build with Shield of Regeneration, and Racthoh's Stygian solo build that exploits the NPCs there.

Paragons are easily the worst profession to solo.

You could probably P/Mo 55 it with your spear for damage. It would be arduous and slower than other classes, but it would probably work. Throw a spear into the Dying Nightmares. They should explode in one hit if you use an attack skill.

From looking at the icons;

Zealous Vow
"Go for the Eyes!"
"Theres Nothing to Fear!"
Conviction
Mystic Regeneration
Rending Aura
Pious Haste
Blazing Finale

99.8% sure of those.

I agree with the 55 burning refrain. It works very well.

I've decided to write a mini guide about it.

here are the skills:

Paragon/Monk (P/Mo)

[1] Protective Spirit
[2] Shielding hands
[3] Shield of Absorbtion
[4] "Dodge This!" (Can be replaced with "Go For The Eyes!" (although it's a bit more stressful.)
[5] Burning Refrain
[6] Optional slot (i usually take barbed spear for the extra degen,Also a good solution is Mending refrain for when you have more then -3 degen on you.)
[7] Balthazar's spirit
[8] Mending

Gear:
Any armor with radiant insignias.
Leadership or Spear mastery headpiece.
5 Superior runes (1 of each and 1 extra for the extra -75 hp)

Attributes:
Healing Prayers: 8
Protection Prayers: 8
Spear Mastery: 10 (+ 1*) + 3
Leadership: 10 (+ 1*) + 3

Farming locations: (these are the ones I've found so far.)

-You can successfully do UW runs. (only main room with Aatxes. Although I'm unsure if you can kill the grasps with this, never tried that.)
If you manage to kill the nightmares on time you should be fine.

-You can do Plains of Jarin in HM

-Trolls @ Droknars Forge (with an altered build.)

(if you guys find more places please tell me so, then I'll add it here or make a full guide of it if requested.)

This is not the best way to farm these locations. I do these farms because I love paragons and it's fun.

Any Questions? PM me here or in Guildwars.

Found a new farming build for myself. Its for dead sword farming. Not the most useful form of farming but its ok.

the build is:
1. Focused Anger
2. "Dodge This!"
3. Blazing Finale
4. Finale of Restoration
5. Bladeturn Refrain
6. Mending Refrain
7. Mind Block (asura)
8. Balthazar's Spirit

It works very well, even in HM. Just thanking everyone who posted here.
