also where did you get that collector sheild? im pretty sure epidemic will keep the bleeding and DW on the original target, and transfer the remaining duration of the conditions to all nearby enemies as well.

as for the shield:

Its a collectors shield from the desert - http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Lord_Dorn_Lendrigen

its for meager price of 2 bleached shells, which can be dropped off sand wurms.

i suggest using kvndoom's wurm farming build to farm your own bleached shells and save yourself 2k -

knido, your build can actually kill wurm too. It just take a bit more time(about 3-5 minites per wurm). Just don't use elemential resist while you hacking on the wurm and keep doylak/watch yourself/deadly riposte up as much as possible.

Swap out elemential resist with physical resist and you can farm troll/mino too.

applications, applications! great to see that the builds possibilities are expanding, and hey, its half your build, since you introduced sever ,gash, and epidemic

and its nice to know that ViM is becoming more appreciated, even if its a little bit at a time ^^

right outside augury rock, in the Skyward Reach zone theres a crap load, usually in groups of 2 or 3 and you can make a circle around the Mesa using the teleporters and i usually clear the zone or wait until my inventory fills up before i zone back

with the two w/me build posted, with dolyak, watch yourself, and elemental resistance you will take ~9 damage at most from any attack, so healing signet and ViM will easily be able to counter any damage posted. also, using sever, gash, epidemic, and ViM will heal you for around 100 for each enemy nearby, so you will be able to tank a group of nearly any size and live. try it out first, and see if you have any troubles

It doesn't have to be in English; seven other languages are also supported.

However, I understand that the rules are a little different on the Asian servers.

heres what i do:

cycle between 4-5 farming areas, i do hydras, sand drakes, minotaurs, griffons, and mountain trolld, the easiest, and as soon as i clear one zone i move on to the next

do this and you will get golds MUCH more often than just focusing on one gold in my experience.

I don't think I've ever seen a gramatically correct sentence on any of these forums. In addition, multi-syllabic words are a rarity and should be treasured as such.

@Ocelt: Not often. Maybe 1 every 5 runs. <G> I guess that is why they are called rare items.

@ ]SK[ and Francis Crawford: Just help ppl instead of making fun of their english skills.. Not every1 is from UK or US.. So some ppl will have problems with making a grammaticly correct post..

I really doubt that usages such as "dey" are accidental errors by foreigners.

In all the time I've read these boards, I can think of about one apparent foreigner who shouldn't have been posting in English. On the other hand, I can think of a number of apparent natives about whom that could be said ...

Possibly another stupid question, but where is the best place to find out how much to charge for weapons you pick up?

Thanks

@ ocelot - ive used this build to run through other zones to kill minos, sand drakes, and griffons, but the fastest way is probably to use a axe/glads defense or riposte/glads defense build to kill them, since they are all warrior class monsters. and as to where to find them (just listing where they are easisest to find and most abundant):

Sand Drakes - Divener's Ascent (Outside Elona Reach)

Mintaurs - Elona Reach Mission (Beginning Part) and Prophets Path

Griffons - Vulture Drifts
