Farming Celestial Weapons.

Yeah, GOOD celestial weapons are pretty much from chests.

Ive gotten several r9 Celestial weapons from soloing Nahpui with my monk.

For Naphui are you running solo monk or 600/smite?

If solo can you post build, I would like to try this.

It might not have been Restoration req take me, but it was a Rit req with a HCT Blood "inscription" bonus (of course, non-inscribable, but that is where an inscription would have been, easiest way to describe it) high req at that, so it got Merch'd. No SS, but then again, I wasn't exactly paying attention to more than "single attribute/dual attribute, trash/treasure" kind of mentality (if it were a decent dual attribute, I would have kept it, but as I said before, it was utter merch-trash).

It's such a shame they don't come in flatbow versions x(

1 run..3-4 gold...2 chest (not any gold)..
(salv Steel to Charcoal..nice)

I farm Naphui in NM on my Ranger, still working on a HM solo for him (if Only I could have 9 skills or two Elites, lol)

When Factions First came out I for a Req8 +5 Energy Celestrial Longbow that was 14-28 Damage and I've been trying to duplicate that ever since. I can say that EVERYTIME the Tengu has been holding a Celestrial Weapon it has dropped it when it died. I'm also trying to get a Crelendated Sword formt here, I've only had a couple Golds drop, both crap moded, so I REALLY need to get a HM build up and running.

Chest are poop in NM, but I Lock Pick them anyway for the Lucky/Unlucky points.

I run something like that for Vermin farming in Xaquang Skyway. ^

I run past all of the mobs of 3 or 4 and rest at the res shrine. With practice, you won't need SF to run to the shrine although sometimes it's necessary because the vermin are blocking the paths.

If you wait a few seconds the Vermin on the 'bridge' that leads in to Shreader's vermin cave will move out of the way at which point you can run in and aggro as many Vermin as you can see. Hit Shadow Form followed by Sliver Armor and EBSoH and Shreader will die first. Re-use your skills when necessary, as they will be recharged by the morale boost.

This will kill about 80-90% of the vermin in the cave which is kinda scrappy but it's fast and easy to rinse and repeat. I devised this sort of accidentally when I was chest running for celestial stuff (using a loads of runnung and healing skills) and I thought it could be more financially viable to farm while I'm opening chests, so I added the damage spells.

Rezzdog, was your farm before the SF 'nerf'?
becouse I only deal 15 dmg per foe, I know my Vanguard rank is low (3) but it should be more

I solo farm HM mission with a 55 Mo/N. I wish i knew how to do the cool skill things, but i dont, so here is the build in text: OwQEQcjO+3oCzE7j6BIRfIPCDA

12 Blood Magic, 11 Healing Prayers, 12 Smiting Prayers, 10 Protection Prayers

Skills: Spoil Victor, Vampiric Gaze, Smite Healing, Mark of Protection, Healing Breeze, Essence Bond, Balthazar's Spirit, Necrotic Transversal

The key with this build is to avoid groups with a star light and a star blade as nightmare weapon will blow right through your enchantments. Any other group containing a star light can be handled by pulling the group so that they are hitting a wall instead of you, and casting smite healing on the star light and killing it first. Spoil victor drains health even if you are not actually hit with the attack, so nightmare weapon will never actually hit your enchantments. It is also useful to remove essence bond and Balthazar's spirit once you are behind the wall, for more energy.

Any other groups can simply be handles as a normal 55 would, as the warriors and rangers pose no threat to you.
Use necrotic traversal to jump past groups that contain enemies you cannot kill, I usually take the leftmost portal as there are multiple directions in which you can proceed.
Overall works well and nets a decent number of celestials and lots of feathers.
Good luck!

okay thnx

..

well...the chest is not so bad...it drops Celestial Weapons to
