but you cant do that in the case of flesh golems since they disenchant. so how would you get around that one?

You need to use Spell Breaker or Obsidian Flesh to handle the Flesh Golems. Their dispel blows away all your enchantments, so you have to prevent them from being able to use it at all.
I've done Flesh Golem runs using:
Spell Breaker
Zealot's Fire
Essence Bond
Balthazar's Spirit
Divine Boon
Divine Spirit
Blessed Aura
Blessed Signet
It's really not too tough, but you really don't want to take on more than 6 at once. If you still have 3+ mobs on you when Spell Breaker goes out, you're likely going to die.
I just have never had much luck with Flesh Golems dropping anything, so I don't bother. I haven't found any mob types that drop gold weapons with any frequency to make it feel worth my time.

Before the nerf: fleshies
Unfortunatly I couldnt do it without Mhenlo - but I could take on allmost any number of them if they backed close enough. (hard with Mhenlo...)
Could probably have done it faster with sup dom instead of sup curse and echo on shatter hex.
Havn't tried after since I'm playing other chars and made this ne/me a ne/mo.
No important enchantments tho

for those who have a really good elementalist/monk farming build. What items would you suggest wearing?
Pepe La Pew
I have a W/N and I dont know what to do for a build. I read KrobJ's post and see that it is focussing on one enemy at a time, but dont the most effective farming builds use AoE spells? If anyone could get me a good W/N build that uses AoE skills that would be great (Im a sword warrior btw).
Also if anyone has time, a minion master W/N build would be helpful too, so i could try out a couple and see which fits best.
Thanks.

A W/E friend solos quite a bit in lorners pass area so I guess W/E is area specific.

i'm just wondering...Where are you fighting those white mantal? I've been through the game I just can't remember

To be able to farm the most efficiently you would need some sort of protection of healing. That means either Mo be your primary or secondary. Or you could go all stances, but that wouldn't leave you much for damage. Maybe a Memser too, but that depends on how much energy you have. W/E is also quite good due to Earth, BUT he will be less efficient due to energy costs and lack of damaging spells. You have what, Earthquake/Earth Shaker/Whirlwind and then Aftershock? Not really that damaging due to recharge times.
Trust me, if you're anything OTHER than a Warrior, you're going to be taking LOTS of damage. I have my own specific farm build that works wonders, I kill around 10 - 12 enemies in 30 seconds, but obviously it is my OWN secret farm build, sorry. =P
If you're anything other than a Warrior, go Protection instead of Healing. And if you're a Warrior, go Healing.

Yeah, I posted one. I would ask you to use the search function, but that would be hopeless.http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...ad.php?t=27800
Enjoy.

I have pretty good luck with my Ele/Mez using fire and water. It works really well against melee mobs that like to hug in close and attack you at once. Just be wary of enchantment removal or you are dead. Mistform [elite] is a really nice protection spell.
squakMix
yea, I used to use it with my ele... I use mark of protection now - it's much more effective I think.
streek
After reading all this and have been wanting a char to be able to solo farm with I changed up my W/Mo to farm, Heres my little pathetic attempt at farming lol.

My awesome Wa/Mo
it's best used at gates of kryta at the explorable area avoiding the bog skales but still fighting them...
sever artery
gash
final thrust
sprint
remove hex
mending
orison of healing
restore life
you can basically use this with any build type as long as you have sufficent amounts of points into healing prayers and swordsmanship. at lvl 16 i have strength:6? Swords:11 (with minor rune) Healing prayers:7?

switch orision with healing breeze if you want! And take off remove hex, and replace it with galrath slash!
