can you explain a little better?
Traveller
If you haven't been there for a while, you've probably missed the AoE update, which makes enemies scatter from AoE damage now and in effect, enemies won't follow you around for ages anymore either. This makes farming more tedious and time-consuming, but it can still be done tho if you want. Adjusting your build a little helps too.

stop using stuff like balthazar's aura and symbol of wrath will stop the "running around"
Triple Evel

No, you can't do them all at once. I do them in two different groups.
Ultimate Warrior
Yah, now I have to do a few groups, instead of one.

1 - Bonnetis Defense
2 - Cyclone Axe

AoE = area of damage
Balthazars aura, symbol of wrath r area damage spells. they will make the minotaurs run away(break aggro).
I find that if i spam zeoltous fire in like 3 spells in 2 secs .... it gets treated as AoE too.

Zealots Fire .... if you start spamming heals
Symbol of Wrath ...... AoE all by itself

Would be nice if griffons dropped gold weapons again :/ I've been on about 20 griffon runs, and not a single gold item drop 
and wtf are they doing with candy cane shards? There's no snow out there

They got the shards from their Shiverpeak relatives for Wintersday. =)

Rawr the gold drops did dry up. I wasnt even over-farming it last night, and in 2 hours I got no golds. That suxorz.
Maxiemonster
Farmed for 3 hours, today and yesterday, got 12 Gold drops. I've never farmed there before, and that's probably the only reason why I get so many Gold drops.
Try FrogDeverour's Build, it's in the Monk section. It's way better then any Mo/W build against Griffons/Minotaurs.

I didnt do any griffon farming yestrday, had a go today and i got 3 gold in 2 runs, really shows that they have reduced the drop rate the more u farm. The longer u leave it the more golds you will get. Just go to a different farm spot each day.
DFrost
I did my first griffon run today, and wasn't too impressed. All I got were wings, minotaur horns and little gold. Most of the monsters didn't drop anything. Maybe bad luck, but definitely not overfarming since it was my first time there.
Lord Iowerth
Also, if you want good damage all around for griffs, use Spiteful Spirit - not considered AoE damage, and is a great spell ... even though the damage radius is not quite as large as balth ... just place it on more than one griffon and watch the splash damage!

@ Ultimate Warrior
Your build for farming Griffons is OK. However since the update, AoE skills/spells makes your enemies scatter after being hit consecutively with those kinds of skills/spells. In your build it would be Balthazar's Aura, Symbol of Wrath and Zealot's Fire. The trick here is when they scatter, don't follow, stay where you are and you'd noticed they comeback at you again. Just keep doing this until you finish them all of. Since the update it just made it slower to kill them buggers but eventually you would be able to farm them still.

Ideal build for a monk imho
HOly strike
Shield of Judgment
zealot's fire
healing breeze
protective spirit
mending
balths spirit (the one that regens energy when you get hit)
and either another smite spell (aoe is good) or if you're with someoen take a resurrection type spell.
This build worked good for both my 55 monk and my 220 hitpoint monk
Good luck.

Balthazars aura is still very effective and you can still get them into 1 group. Use shield of judgment for your elite because it knocks them down which allows a few extra hits from balthazars aura. To group all of them together just aggro the first couple groups then run to the others, the first groups will start to run back and you will have to run back and forth a few times but it can be done.
