Hey guys,
I made my necro 55 months ago to farm hydras in the desert.
But i dont feel like the drops are good lol.
And since i cant find any up to date topics my question is:
Does anyone knows a good place to farm with my 55hp necro.
I dont like going in UW.

Making a few minor adjustments depending on your foes you face you can farm many areas. A few of them are:

Hulking elemental in Old Ascalon
Sand Drakes in Diviners Ascent
Minotaurs in Anvil Rock
Minister Cho's estate but you need to bring some type of anti knock down
Mantids outside Ransu Gardens.

These are just a few simple ones. Try some out and see where you can go. I would say none of them are all that profitable unless you get some lucky drops or if you want materials. A lot will depend on how fast you go to increase your rate/hour.

A 55 hp Necro/Monk can farm pretty everywhere, provided that you:
1-will face physical/armor respecting damage.
2-will not face ench stripping or too much disruption.

For a list of areas and tips to farm as 55hp necro, here there's a (huge) guide:http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/big-necro-farming-guide-t10259746.html?t=10259746&highlight=necro+farming+ guide.

It's quite old, so not everything could be doable, but is still a useful guide.

actually Monster Skills will insta gib a 55 as well (just as a side note)..especially Skeletal Dhuums..and they are rangers!..so all damage (excluding HP Drain or Steal) is managable , is not entirely correct.

little edit to clarify..specifically Bone Spike and Flurry of Splinters are armor ignoring direct damage attacks.

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Base_Defense Health loss, not damage as described
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Spectral_Agony Described as health loss, but counts as damage

Would farming desert griffins in the scar and then selling feathers for 9k a stack be the fastest farming?

You can also 600HP tank on a Necro quite well.

I sometimes 600 (3000HP) tank against Rotscale which is quite fun and fast if you want to Vanquish Majesties Rest.
