Ether renewal, zealots fire, divine boon, balth spirit, essence bond, balth aura, symbol of wrath.

Stack enchants, then spam boon with renewal up. Invincincilbility ensues with lots of energy regen and health regen. Take them in packs with ether renewal, and you wont loose. Just hope they dont have enchant removal.

problem with riis build is that there is no defence whatsoever, so you'll get raped.

My current E/Mo farm build:

Zealots fire
Divine boon (debating changing to reversal of fortune)
Balthazars aura
Ether Renewal
Armor of Earth
Armor of Mist
Aura of Restoration
Balthazars Spirit

The hardest part is staying alive between renewals...this plays to that by addin armor and aura of restoration to stay alive.

check again, i think youll find every second you gain about 200 health. how much do you need? put up prot bond then.

200 health eh...what about when ether goes out, you'll be taking full damage from critters and if you plan on doing even griffin runs you cannot take out a group with one ether run...once ether goes down you are only healing the 25 hp per divine boon spam until you run out of energy and ether renewal respawns, prot bond requires too many points to be of use in this build. Have you ever tried this rii?

Well, ive never farmed, so this is all theory, but i was kind of hoping theyd all be dead and you could wait for the recharge :/
Maybe do what you do then. I didnt finish a whole list, so the rest was left in for defense, i was waiting for someone who actually does this to fill that bit it.

Thanks

Well my earth ele farms minotaurs fine in Elona reach(mission). I aggro around 6-8 as many as i can without getting hit. I dont even use any monk skills.
#1 I use aura of restoration
#2 aggro however many u think u can handly
#3 Stop and cast armor of earth. at 16 earth magic i believe its 62 armor which for an ele is 122 armor . The minotaurs then only hit me for around 20 maybe a 50 with mighty blow or something like that.
#4 As soon as they souround u cast eruption
#5 crystal wave Right after eruption so u dont remove the blindness later
#6 cast ether renewal and spam stone dagger for max energy and some health they are blind so your good.
#7 cast earthquake and follow up with aftershock.
#8 Armor of earth runs out around this time so recast
#9 crystal wave i believe it should've recharged They should definetly be dead if they were therye for that full combo
#10 repeat if their are minotaurs that came late

The key is jsut to keep armor of earth up I should bring ward but i dont know how i can fit it in
