Fast method to obtain asuran points.

Why leech? (don't get me started on the idiocy of THAT concept). A ranger is perfectly capable of raptor farming in HM. every profession can raptor farm ;o - shocking :P

just with adaptations to the bars
check wiki for the builds....or go to the farming forum

The "generic" mist-form raptor farm build (that I will take credit for) is REALLY REALLY awful and depends on keeping Mental Block going which is tricky. With any profession, I think Mindbender is really the key skill because it halves casting time which makes you pretty tough to interrupt, BUT you MINIMALLY need rank 6 Asuran to have any chance at aggro'ing the 3 main groups before it runs dry. So my current build would be:

[Glyph of Elemental Power] - If your bar has room, this will boost your earth/water spells the equivalent of a major rune and it lasts long enough to be precast

[Magnetic Aura] - stays up long enough to run through the cave, blocking=interrupt prevention

[Mindbender] - Rank 6 or above with an enchanting staff will BARELY get you through the cave and allow you to cast your spells (don't try getting every raptor, just the groups).

[Sliver Armor] - Cast this FIRST since it gives you even more blocking. For something like a necro which won't have any additional blocking or interrupt prevention, you'll want to cast this before the raptors totally mob you.

[Mist Form] - Once this is off, you take NO damage but can be interrupted

[Air of Superiority] - Not absolutely critical but should keep the run going. Personally I don't use this. I just wait for the broodmother to give me a skill recharge, go for the 2nd casting of sliver and then leave the cave (usually get about 29-30 kills overall which is fine for me).

[Ebon Battle Standard of Honor] > [By Ural's Hammer!] > [Intensity] - Whatever fits on your bar

Depending on profession, you want to utilize any blocking or interruption skills available to prevent interruption (always the biggest problem).

. i fully admit that it is harder with certain professions - my nec and (not sure if its strange or not) but my para had some difficulty when I did the occasional raptor farm for event items....

but IT IS possible to do it which I feel was the point I was trying to make....

just wondering with double rep - what is better when not combined with event items - raptors or Magus Stones vanq?

just wondering with double rep - what is better when not combined with event items - raptors or Magus Stones vanq? Well, if you are just mindlessly raptor farming over and over again, you will reasonably do 30+ runs an hour. That is about 4k reputation per hour normally, so the vanquish is still the better way to go (but raptors will make you more money).

For just plain rep points, why do you need to leech or go solo Vs Raptors?

Why not just go in with Heroes and Henchies and kill just kill em all. Yeah, maybe you'll get less drops, but the rep is the same regardless and easier than having to maintain a particular build.

Just curious. It's too slow. The solo build is extremely efficient, about a 90 second run or less. Also, clearing the cave in hard mode with a full crew is actually pretty difficult (for me at least).

(psst remember the point of playing games in the first place is to have fun)[/FONT] Really!!? That's what I've been doing wrong! darn it.

Vanquish magus.
Thanks for this advice. I got my rank 10 in Asura doing this in only a few hours of playing.

I farm very easily with ele, but ranger i can't kill boss. thats bull. if u cant kill boss as ranger then you,sir, are noob.
