This is a brief guide to farming Canthan items with max inscriptions for old school glory. The farm take place in the Saoshang Trail HM. Since you're farming the entire area you also get lots of gold for finishing the VQ. You will need a build that can deliver devastating pressure and damage. You will be using this in conjunction with Apiritway because there are multiple healers in this area. Disenchantment is necessary for removing Shield of Protection and interrupting Ethereal Light. Both ritualists will need Frenzy as well. This works well with Ebon Battle Standard of Honor for pumping out more damage. Xandra may be carrying an item, but Frenzy is still useful since you want enemies to ignore Razah because he has the res. Here is a sample run and approximate duration of each run.

Now i swear that ive done a solo vq here before , minds a bit fuzzy tho due to hangover.I have a feeling it was on the old 55 n/mo sv build but main thing i want to say is - e know a picture can say a 1000 words but can we have a slight walk thru of usage etc

"You will need a build that can deliver devastating pressure and damage."

echo flare is devastating pressure?(you know its insta recharge so no need to echo it)

iirc a/me walstrels works quite goood, just bunch everything up, the mobs are quite close to eachother.

That is the single most retarded build I've ever seen... Echo flare? I feel like I'm being trolled, because no one can seriously be that stupid.

No offense kid, but it's really over the top. That build is like gluing two spoons together with the two eating sides glued together and trying to tell us that eating soup with the back side of one of the spoons is now easier because you have two spoons.

On a related note: Minister Cho's is better, faster, gives nicer drops, can be done solo (this as well, but still). And this is just... I'm going to stop commenting because I honestly don't want to make you feel bad, but this is seriously over the top...

55 Farming the naga in Sunqua Vale is quick and easy. There's a quest that makes lots of them pop up near the lake. Never got a Sunqua Blade from Cho's. Lot's of Broads, Bladeds and Bo's though.
