and ive been wondering if the griff farm build coul sacrifice healing hands for hundred blades... Healing hands could be replaced with a prot like aiges or something around there. But... hundred blades has an 8 second recharge, 4 seconds longer than cyclone axe, anyone wanna help me on this

bull. healing hands is just for the people who cant keep themselves alive. glads defense does damage, hence killing the griffs faster

Heh, that's what I do too. It's so freaking hard to get people to understand the virtue of a Smiting Rod/Staff. It does appreciable damage (11-22), and keeps you from having to spend points in a mele attribute since your smiting should already be 9 or higher anyway. Not to mention other benefits (ranged, pulling, enemies don't blind you, etc...).
 And Ivor's Staff rocks for farming. 22 seconds of Shield of Judgement can really put the hurt on some azz. Reve2uk
whats the max amount of ppl you can take on with a rod/staff. Cos there is a point where any amount of hp regain won't be enough to keep you alive and you need to got to other soucres like Live Vicariously + Vigorous Spirit which won't be that handy with e staff/rod
the only way i can see it working on large groups is to echo healing hands
nightrunner
Here's what I use:
Cyclone Axe Bonetti's Symbol of Wrath Balth's Aura Vigorous Spirit Live Vicariously Mending You could do the same with Hundred Blades instead of Cyclone - you'd just have to position yourself different. Key to this is keeping Bonetti's and either smiting spell up as much as possible. Use Cyclone/Hundred Blades to recharge Bonetti's, which in turn keeps your energy up to cast your smite spells. When you use Cyclone to recharge Bonetti's, you also get a good healing spike from Live Vicariously and Vigorous Spirit. BTW - I got most of this from Domidizzle, but it looks like pretty much everybody else has the same build >_<

the only way i can see it working on large groups is to echo healing hands I don't use my weapon to heal, I use it to deal damage and get enchantment benefits. Healing Breeze is my only healing. Griffons are a non-issue unless you let your health drop below 50%, so as long as you manage your health there's no problem. But then I don't just farm Griffons in Prophet's Path. I go after Devourers, Minotaurs, and Elementals too. I ask you what's the max number of Devourers at a time you can take on with a melee weapon. Or Hydras...  I've stressed this in a previous thread, encouraging people to think outside the box and try new and different things. It really can pay off, especially since I have a feeling Griffons are gonna get nerfed soon. Reve2uk
i like to think outside the box :O , but i nolonger farm that much with my warroir i prefee my monk means i can farm alot more places and its alot more changling
and i think i could kill that many Devourers without a staff, just equip SoJ and wait for them to kill them selfs Nightwish
kvndoom, do you use an invinci-monk equivalent build on your warrior? Thats the only way that I manage to see being able to survive using healing breeze alone o.O

LOL Kvndoom.. Griffons are gonna get nerfed soon? They have been nerfed, they have had their drop rate tweaked, ANET knows people farm them, etc. No flame, but its always the same solution, don't farm one area too much.
kvndoom
They're not as badly nerfed as some places, like the Talus Chute trolls. I couldn't stand to look at all those Raven Staves day after day after day. You're likely right though. As long as the farming doesn't affect the community the way the Riverside / Underworld farming did, it won't be adjusted any further. Before the Spetember patch, it was much harder to find a Monk for an actual quest / mission than it is now. Some places are still like that, but it's not as bad as before, from all I have seen.

But I pity the fool who runs up to a big group of them and starts swinging a sword. He'll see about 10 or 15 "-21 Dust Trap" 's appear on the screen, followed by a big "-15%" in the upper left corner. I should know. Experience is a good teacher.
