Its quite ridiculous now. But I can't be too upset at the nerf... after all, I'm primarily an Ele, and that's good news for PVP. I appears you take a little bit more damage but I still solo'd this with ease. Maybe you need a little more practice. Keep working at it. You will do it more often.

For those who are in doubt
It is still doable after the nerf... but it is harder
if you have healing hands intereuppted even once you will probably be dead
and I think you must pull Ghail out of the group now
(I used to go in his group when there is only mage surronding him, their wand attack+ conjure flame used to be a good source of healing... those are the gone old day)
Now consider rasing the price for the staff

Ghial is definitely still soloable after the armor nerf. Dolyak Signet is pretty much required however (not really for Ghial, more for the Knights and Mages on the way). Took me 37 runs to get 2 staffs (one for my Rt/N and one for my friend).
Ghial, with no bodies around, is still really easy to kill, since he is always pullable (with maybe one mesmer or one ritualist following him). If the other jade is bothering you, you can always kill it first, then lure the flesh golem away from Ghial and then solo Ghial.
My build for Ghial solo is Dolyak, Sever, Final, Vigorous, Hands, Mending, Tiger, Sprint. Vigorous is very nice in case Hands gets disrupted (yes it is a 1s cast but a single mesmer can't stop you if you cast it right after an interrupt of Hands). Vigorous is also a better spell to cast when finally killing Ghial as it keeps you completely healed without Mending or Hands, and for 30s too, allowing more energy for Tiger (if needed).
I am still having tremendous problems with Royen however. The run to Royen is even easier than Ghial, but the final groups (the ones you must kill before Royen) are very very hard. There are almost always 2 or 3 ritualists supporting each other, and I just cannot break through their constant healing and weapon of warding.
I removed Dolyak and Vigorous for Royen (since the fights are easier I needed neither) and replaced them with 2 interrupts, but I still cannot kill a ritualist when it is supported by another (just non-stop constant healing).
Can Soothing Memories even be disrupted? I use Disrupting Blow the moment I see it begin and even though I *hit* him with the chop and the ritualist falls over it still casts on him. Because of this I mostly only disrupt weapon of warding.
The two interrupts do make killing Royen incredibly easy if you can get him solo (which I did twice by getting the rits stuck on the bridge), but it would be much faster and easier if I were able to kill the ritualists.
I have also tried builds with Scourge Healing (makes it slightly easier, still cannot kill a ritualist supported by 2 other rits), Vengeful Urn (they don't attack enough to kill themselves) and poison+bleeding or phantasm+nightmare on a rit (still is healed too fast when supported).
Anyone have any suggestions?

They are still very much soloable, I did however do some changes to my armor. I got full glads execpt for the chest where I got Legionnairs.
So basically on my entire body I got 80 + 20 + -3 from sup absorption and on my chest I got 80 + 20 + 10 + -3, I am almost always in a stance so it helps, seeing that the chest erea is the biggest and easyest to hit. I tested this yesterday on some mages, rits and mesmers and it is working fine. I agree that all you need to do is pull Ghail away from the rest. From there killing him is still easy

Hmm, I don't have Eviscerate, and I tried replacing it with another damage skill, and I can't even kill one person at the first mob right before the bridge...

Thanks.
Like someone staring the answer directly in the face, I feel like an idiot for not realizing this sooner.
Still, is there any way to kill a rit by Royen when it is supported by 1 or 2 other rits? Ghial's were never this hard just because they either could be pulled solo, OR had other mesmers, mages, or knights in the area that they would also cast spells on (I'd just whack the others once in a while to draw some heals and warding away).
With Royen there are 2 or 3 all by themselves and I just don't know how to take them down.
Please help! hehe

It does certainly get harder to farm for ghial's staff. I used sentinel's armor but i didn't use dolyak's but I was able to do it. I don't think it is worth it to farm ghial anymore since it takes a long time to get into ghial.
Hey_homies
didnt try this build yet but thought it was gonna be hard..After i saw ur video wow i was amazed! seems so easy if you got everything under controll.Am difitnely gonna try this build and see if i get a staff.The problem is that i don't get healing hands =[

I would suggets getting HH. IF you cant then try vigerous spirit or live vicarously with healing breeze. You will have to drop something to over come it.

Please help! hehe I actually find Royen to be just as easy.
1. sprint to the bridge just before Royen then you can watch your agro or kill the last two you just passed before the bridge.
2. Pull the foes at the bottom of the hill onto the bridge. Kill them.
3. There will be two foes at the top of the hill. Possibly both Rits. With a bow, pull one as far away from the other as you can. Kill that one.
4. Pull and kill the last ritualist.
5. Then go for Royen. You need to kill his pet first.
It should be pretty easy. I did it in my first run.
If you still have trouble let me know.

I havent even made 1 succesful run at all...IT really frustrates me because when i try to pull,they all come at me and i die.

soloing ghial isnt very hard. i found it easiest to run across the 2 bridges on the right side and fighting from there. soloing the ppl is easy. the hard part is healing while ghial has fainthardiness on u.

ok this just wont work for me, there is always a few jade brotherhood around him that you can not lure away from him. I can kill everything so that there is only me and Ghial left but he uses flesh golem on the corpse of the jade that wont seperate from him. Even when there are no bodies left he uses the dead flesh golem to make another one? what the hell since when did a minion leave a useable corpse??
Have tried to just rush in when theres only the 2 that you cant pull away from him and i just cant stay alive

Did you watch the video. Part of the trick to this farm is to not give him a body for the golem. If he only has one rit with him, just take him out. Don't bother with the others. Pull all that you can first kill them on the bridge the go after Ghial.

i did have mending.
but even if he has like 2 mages or something, they dont really do much so that means more healing for u.
i killed him yesterday and got his staff btw lol.

How much does the Royen bow usually go for? I can usually sell off Ghial's staff pretty quickly, but I haven't had as much luck with the bow...
lennymon
1 wth does royen have to do with this thread?
2 I use a w/n this run is STILL cake, I think there's a link to a vim build on page one. only use Necro for corpse control. I use desperate blow, drunken blow, watch yourself, dolyak signet, victory is mine, necrotic transversal, healing signet, sprint. run is the same, killing groups is still easy (just take out the rits first) - vim makes energy management a thing of the past as well as allows you to deal more damage since you spend less time heal sigging, but I still get into trouble sometimes like anyone else ;P. I pull ghial, and on the very rare occaision I cant separate him from the one rit or mage that comes with, kill them, necrotic transverse and then kill ghial. Necrotic transversal is so much faster than even Ghial's animate its not even funny. I've gotten 3 staffs in probably 20 runs, but I haven't done for a few days since I've been going for my skill hunter-3
3, if you really must go wammo, just use live vicariously and vigorous spirit, zealous axe - tripple chop and cyclone, watch yourself, dolyaks, healing sig and sprint. Keep it simple. You CAN almost always pull him away solo, and if not, you just pull the golem away and kill it.

yeah watched the video i just suck lol even without giving him a corpse i still can't stay alive against him and the 2 jade with him, will try lennymon's idea hopefull i will have a little mroe luck
lennymon
the amount of damage you take whilst in watch yourself/dolyak sig is laughable, and I do this in glads aarmor so sentinels should be even easier. Only thing you gotta worry about is keeping those on (occaisional healing - a little more in group of 5), and then dishing out some pain. The first group you fight its sometimes a good idea to (after taking out the Rt) make a timely retreat - when dolyak drops sprint away to heal up depending on if its a 5 group or not. Sometimes they hurt you and most times its not a problem, but just remember you have sprint.
Hey_homies
Do you have to have 90+ or 100 armor to farm him?Cause i use glads which is 80 armor and i get killed all the time.
Cerberus
The easiest build for farming Ghial's is 1 alrdy mentioned in a post here alrdy, The original build is great but have found the following to be more reliable, cant remember who posted what they used but all credit goes to them, i'm just making it a little clearer for ppl to read...( tho some of the attributes might be slightly different but this is wot i've used to good effect so far.)
:Skills:
Sever artery
Final thrust
Tigers Stance ( 9 secs of att 33% faster )
Dolyaks sig ( 18 secs of +40 armor, 2 sec down time. )
Healing hands ( gives 25hp when ur hit with healing @ 10 )
Vigours Spirit ( heals you for 15hp every time u hit for 30 secs )
Sprint
Mending
:Attributes:
10 Healing
12 Strength ( 11+ minor str )
13 Sword (9 + sup sword + helm )
Superior Vigor
Superior Absorption ( chest )
:Armor + Wpns:
+45 / -2 enchanted Shield ( collectors works fine ) or -5 20% / +30 works just aswell ( must be str based )
Any sword / 1 handed item with +30 hp ( for the running part )
Zealous Sword 15^50 or 15% enchanted +30
Longbow ( for pulling )
Full Glads with the usual Knights boots
:Route:
See opening post, no need for me to tell u again. ( although once you are done cross back over the bridge near Ghials and go Right, theres a portal close by which makes it easier to repeat without going back to Senji's corner.)
:Possible Drops:
Ghial's Staff ( obviously tho his drop rate is kind of low, 1 in 5-10 runs in my experience. )
Purple / Gold Armors ( always good for runes )
Lots of junk White items.
Also suggest u take a few Canthan keys with u, have some across several chests that can yield some gold items, Tho their not always max but good for mods. ( tho i did get a req7 15-22 15^50 Dusk blade from 1 which i sold for a nice amount
)

=( Yes this run is still very much doable here is a tip for you:
The first group is actually the easyest cause you dont have to fight them
What I do is run accross the bridge, when I see the boss moving towards me I run back again towards the two guards before the bridge. Then you have 2 options when the guards atack run straight through them or go to the left from there, there is an area where you can just wait and the group will move past you :0 as easy as that

I use the 100 armor.
I have no trouble what so ever so I am not sure why people have so much trouble. You do take more damage since the update but I still make it ok.
If I am not busy I will make a run with people (the last time I went I got the drop) to help them out.

I am not sure. I have only gotten 3. I don't farm it too much. I sold one for 20k and I gave the other 2 to guildies. I would think that it should be a halfway decent farm because it is the only Bow that you can farm with 20/20 on it inwhich you don't have to go on SF run or Elite mission.

I make the statement in post #1 that you can also use this build to farm Royen's bow.

Thanks Stee. And yes, the Ghial run is still achievable. However, I did have to switch from Gladiator's to a Sentinel's / Gladiator armor combo instead. Sentinel's helm and chestpiece, Gladiator's for everything else. I still have enough energy for TS and HH, but it helps to pause and regen before each group and Ghial himself.

I dont know if im retarded or sumthin but i cant kill Ghial!He heals to quick!When i was tryin to kil him he had a mage,rit and mesmer by him Healing Hands healed too slowly On my second try i only had direct attacks from Ghial and his mesmer guard which made my HP fall quickly and i had to teleport back to town not to get killed.Should i run in the middle ofr the rest of his guards so their attacks give me more HP from healing hands?What should i do if the mesmer interrupts my Healing Hands?How should i heal then?
My gear for the run is:Skkais Sword and Arahhsh Aehis.I lack only the sword minor rune.Is that the problem?Should i really get it or isit not that important?

Now I have been doing this run as a Wa/Mo. Done like 25 successful runs, but now it seems much more difficult, yes I know about the armor nerf, and in the last couple of tries I get to Ghial, but can not kill him. It is like his "monster mending" is set higher, or he has more HP.
Like I said, killed him many times, but now, can not, something has changed. Will have to try the Wa/Ne versions to see how they work. Anyone else having the same difficulty?

I use the build from Cerberus post, and it works great. I've done 10 runs so far and got 2 green drops. I've even found out that I've been using Malinons shield the whole time (with 1 pt in Tactics) and still I rarely get below 50% HP.

For those having trouble I would add a healing skill like Cerberus did.
It takes a little longer to kill the foes but at least you will not die. I prefer the faster deaths and I don't have the same trouble others are having. maybe its my 100 armor.
For those that have trouble with killing Ghial. Make sure you there is only one rit with ghial. 2 or more will keep him healed. Use pull tactics if to seperate them. Also if you let him get a golem up, you have to kill the golem away from him or he will heal of the golem and pull up another when you kill it.

i was wondering what can u replace healing hands with if you don;t have prophesies. Are they any other skills that would work or could u go into the protection spells instead of using healing spells. well if anybody can get my an awnser just pm me during usually 8-2pm central time, under kelte everwood, aragorn bitterheart, or kelte the warrior (my new tank i'm that i'm gonna be remaking isntead of using it just for PvP)
