Hi!
I've started to lvl. a ele/n, and now, he's in lvl 16.
I am some worried, because one i spoke to said that it was very hard to farm with a Ele if it not is ele/m.
Is that right? Do you think i should start on a W/MO?

Farming with an ele is very very easy and fast. You can pretty much go with 3 standard variants. One is a Geomancer that will farm anything that doesn't strip enchantments, A 55hp farmer, or a Mist Form build that makes you immune to dmg.

First of all, it's not a big deal because before long you'll be able to change secondary professions.

Second, it's not a big deal because the worst case is that you need to take a monk along to heal you.

Third, if you're playing in the Prophecies campaign, you certainly can solo farm the mergoyles outside Gates of Kryta. I imagine the Yeti in Cantha are good farming fodder too. Against lower-level enemies like that, you can just damage them to death with fireballs and the like before they do much to you, and the self-healing from Aura of Restoration gets you through.

Finally, if you feel you must have some self-heal, there's plenty of that in Blood Magic, and Soul Feast can do a lot of healing without a lot of points in Death.
