The farm. As you enter Jaya Bluffs from Seitung Harbor, you run to the north,as the map shows, to the first group of Sensali. After you aggro the Sensali's wait them all to come to you, then start using skills. Repeat that on every group, even killing the Yeti's if they cross your way. From the start you follow the red line, that leads you to the groups of Sensali's, for the fastest way of farming.
There's not much more to say about it, the run is pretty easy and profitable.
The map:
I'll post some screenshots and guide for more proffesions soon. Hope you like it.
Counters:
- Aggroing too many mobs (15 or more)
- Not mantaining enchantments (Health and Energy problems)
This guide was made in good meaning to help players explain the farming. If you don't like it, just don't post anything.
