Does anybody know if the farm for an Assassin in Nightfall is still profitable/doable?

The farm is just liek the SS/LB farming but you go straight to the Monoliths with the quest 'A Show of Force' on your own.

You get out of the wurm, activate all the shrines and then go in and kill all of them.

I used to do this a while back and would like feedback if anybody knows!

Thanks! Evo.

Probably not if it relied on shadow Form

I did it before as well, but i don't think it works now.

I used to farm this even when we had the 50% then 33% dmg output reduction on sin.
These days trying the old build will easily result in your chr lying dead on the floor in a matter of seconds.
Reasons -
SF change which took away the ability to withstand all spells/attacks except pbaoe.
SF change which gives dmg reduction only and spell avoidance - meaning mono`s who go as derv will proceed to eat you alive.
Changes to sliver.
Theres probably a few more reasons but its early morning here and brain cells havnt yet decided to awaken.
To see the problems and understand what and how its been changed - jump on the old build and have a test and that will give an idea how it wont work any more

I was able to abuse whirling defence on my ranger with a life bond/life barrier bonder to farm these, it wasn't profitable by any means and couldn't kill anything in one round of SF so death is guaranteed but you could take some melee and a group of casters with you if you're lucky.
