I'm using the D/Any HM Vaettir Farm build and I am having some issues. (http://www.gwpvx.com/Build/any_HM_Vaettir_Farmer)

I've watched the videos about 2,000 times and can ball them up but as soon as I switch to my scythe they snap me in half like a match stick.

I'm using full Elite Sunspear armor with full windwalker, minor scythe mastery, major mysticism, major rune of vitality and 2 minor runes of vitae.

My weapon sets are a Chaos axe of enchanting with a Norn tactics shield with AR vs earth+10 and a Deldrimore scythe with dmg+15% when health is above 50%, armor penetration +20% (20% chance) and 20% longer enchantments.

Any tips/ ideas of where I am going wrong would be greatly appreciated.

Perhabs your HP drops below 720 when switching to your scythe. Check this first. Remember to display your norn title as well..

I'm displaying my Norn rank.

I have 804 hp with Intimidating Aura and Eternal Aura. I may be pulling too many, but in the videos they're pulling far more than me and getting no damage?

I'm not entirely sure they're using windwalker, but I don't know what else they would be using.

Thanks for the tip anyway, will have a look next time I attempt it.

Well, the way you described your problem made me just think of this opportunity since this is the most obvious one.

804 hp -(30hp loss from Shield while switching) should be enough anyway...

IF you want i can show you in game.. ign.. Siver Vixon

Yes you need windwalker on every piece of armor.....

replace crippling victory with Aura Slicer...so you can proc more often ( otherwise you'll have to wait in between hits to rebuild adrenalin ) -slowing you down

remember to cast [extend enchantments] before [Intimidating Aura] as well.. especially if your trying to ball all 60

Having an earth shield is highly recommended for balling foes.. especially if your doing all 60 at once.
