As noob as it sounds, but i can't come up with a build to solo rain Beatles in normal mode.
I have all campaigns and eotn exp as well.

You`ll be spending a lot of wasted time - geodes dont have a very gd drop rate.Probably if your after granite there are a lot of better farms.

the lvl 20 beetles shouldnt be hard to farm with the 330 ele build(just search easy to find)

the lvl 24+26 ones are going to be harder since they have distracting shot.

and @Spiritz. he is probably trying to farm them for the possible gems that can be salvaged from geodes.

But i do have to agree, goeds do have a preety lousy drop rate

I've gotten 2 rubies out of about 25- 30 geodes, so it is possible. However I think it's easier to just "farm" the trade contract quests and turn them in for rubies.

yeah distracting shot is very annoying.
i'm farming them to get about 30 or o to exchange for air weapons for my heros and me

true that the dro prate for geodes is low for a great salvage, but you have a higher chance of going mesmer or assassin and farming the geodes and getting several stacks before attempting to salvage the geodes as well as farming for items which salvage into gems

check these links, they are videos of the farms i do now...highly effective. and ill be glad to show you the assassin one.
