I posted this in a seperate thread, but to make it more available vie searches and topic browsing I wanted to make it readily available here. This is good AFTER (POST) AoE or AE NERF!
Here is a SOLO build that ACTUALLY WORKS in the UW without too much uncertainty.
First off *#$% ANet for the nerf.
Here's the build:
Healing Breeze
Protective Spirit
Sheild of Judgement
Blessed Aura
Mending
Balthazar's Spirit
Power Spike
Mantra of Recall/Mantra of Concentration
Power Spike interrupts enemies and takes the place of Spell Breaker. Also does some added damage.
This is a solo build that works post the &#$% AoE nerf.
I HATE YOU ANET. I WILL NOT BE BUYING CHAPTER 2. I PLAY PVE EXCLUSIVLY AND YOU HAVE BEEN IGNORING THE DEMANDS OF PVE PLAYERS. Thank you.

It probably works against aatxe, but wont this build be pwned by enchantment-removing mobs?
Oh, and Rhuobhe: PvE != solo-farming the UW.

Oh, and Rhuobhe: PvE != solo-farming the UW. i think the trick is interupt rend enchancement , it have 2 sec cast.

how do you kill smites with just soj?

*sigh* i dont know why everyone's complaining about the Update. It makes the game better. Monsters dont just stand there while you nuke them. That's stupid.

I tried this build a few days ago - minus the Spell Breaker/Power Spike. I just dodge the nightmares. I found it to be too weak of a damage producer. Yes the Blessed Aura extends the enchantment of SoJ, and I use the Hod sword with +20% Enchant - it still takes 3x longer than before vs Aataxes. I didn't even get a chance to try against smites...
I even tried Blessed Aura with Arcane Echo and SoJ with the same setup --- this does almost doubles the length of SoJ, but is very dicey and it's easy to get popped.
I've rolled with the previous updates, and adjusted my build to compensate. The current update really makes it a chore - and the game is supposed to be fun, right?
p.s. this build still works for 2-man and 3-man. Just solo is a friggin pain!

I HATE YOU ANET. I WILL NOT BE BUYING CHAPTER 2. I PLAY PVE EXCLUSIVLY AND YOU HAVE BEEN IGNORING THE DEMANDS OF PVE PLAYERS. Thank you. Well, let me start by saying that PvE is NOT farming.
-If you really were interested in PvE, you would probably SUPPORT the AoE fix because it makes PvE more challenging/more fun. However, you are a FARMER and if you read Fansite Fridays, you would know that ANet is against farming.
Now that that is out of the way:
-I'm guessing that Sorrows Furnace was for the PvPers
-I'm guessing upcoming Auction Houses are for PvPers
-I'm guessing that the upcoming Tormentors Armor is for PvPers

However, you are a FARMER and if you read Fansite Fridays, you would know that ANet is against farming. Yeah thats why FOW armor costs 800k. The money mysteriously grows on trees for you while your sleeping at night. Please dont requote me saying how you make 800k a day doing missions and just see the truth for what it is
I wish Anet would concentrate on spicing up the game to hold us all of until the new chapter. Instead of wasting time on PvE (Player Vs Enviroment farming included) that is increasingly dying. As for the next chapter i wont even think of buying it if it doesnt include at LEAST two characters because if this game isnt interesting over 5 months with 6 charactersm, can you imagine what will happen with only 2?
Also the majority of players buy the gold online now..i know because i have friends in the game that do so and people openly admit it in any district with a conversation.Way to feed the bot market Anet.Makes me wonder if it isnt the staff themselves selling gold.
Until next months inspiration post..

Closing because the thread is setting itself up for another farming/PvE debate.
Rhuobhe, here's a topic where you can post your underworld soloing setup.
