I still see people assembling 5 man farm teams at Deldrimor War Camp, but I don't know how it would work without the gear trick. It looks like the team makeup is 2 monks, a warrior, a SS necro and a MM...is this right? How is it done without a gear trick to exploit?

Ive run 5 man normals and a 5 man BPs, its quite fun, takes a little more preparation, a lot more than your exploitation tactics.

I haven't gone there yet, I hope it doesnt take half an hour to get a group ready.

It can take quite a bit of time to get a group together -- nothing like back in the day when you had 7 districts going--now you are lucky to have 2.

Other neat surprises:

--SS necros without Spinal Shivers
--Squishy Bonders who insist on running around on the frontline and drawing aggro.
--MM's who are squishy and for some reason spam blood of master to the extent that they can only maintain 5 minnions for lack of energy, simply absurd.
--Tanks that grab aggro and then pull everything back onto the rest of the group. Then there are the Leeroys....
--Healers who proudly ping there energy 63/63 which means they only have +3 e regen. So you know after 1 min of fighting they will be pinging 0/63.

Yes, the joys of having to deal with incompetence. I'm surprised the price of greens hasn't gone up given the "quality" of farmers has grossly declined.
