Another note on the 'preferred' weapon...

Rago's might be expensive, but there are cheaper AND better alternatives as well:

Same as Rago's but 2 more energy:
+5 energy/20% enchant sword/axe/spear & 20/20 collectors focus

If you don't like 20% casting:
+5 energy/20% enchant sword/axe/spear & Kindlerock (+1 20%, 20% recharge)

First set you could get for 5-10k, 2nd set 15-20k.
Both are better than Rago's staff.
Both are MUCH better than Kepkhet's.

I havent farm Troll forever now.....what's the drop rate? I'm interested in gold and not so much into gold items. What's the net after selling all the materials?

Good job on the builds.

Trolls and minos have a pretty good drop rate, but it goes downhill fast.

I typically cycle through 3-5 troll runs -> 3-5 mino runs -> 5-10 GoK runs -> repeat

yeah, i did 2 troll runs yesterday and got a total of 1.6k off those 2 runs. did another and I got a few tusks and 2 items that sold for about 50 each. Usually doesnt drop off that fast or that much, but some runs are really good, others are bad. I had one awhile ago where I got 3 keys and a purple.

i did my me/e build of this, and it works pretty well. i could use a little more dmg, but it still works. i got about 10k in junk, 70 tusks and a black dye all in one day. overall good times. quicker build than war or 55 monk. yay!!! nerf time!!

It is a nice build. thx

ps. why would they nerf? there are tons of farming solo build out there and as far as i know this doesn't effect pvp. Typically most nerf are due to pvp factors, look how long the 55 was around, touchers have been soloing greens easily for a long time now, etc etc

I'm going to have to work on my timing until I can do this blitz farming. Geotanking is pretty slow and tedious these days ...

I'd like to point out that using the build on the first page, you don't really need to have all 200 attribute points. It is a little harder and requires more attention, but I've been doing this run quite fine with just 170 attribute points.

dont feel no pain

A new farming class? Blitz Farming? Including this build, the N/Mo Spoil Victor Farmer and the A/E green farmer.

I've worked with quite a few lower level eles (as low as 14 for trolls, 9 for GoK) to modify the build/technique to still work. Self-PLing and farming at the same time - beautiful. Oh, and I love calling it "blitz farming"... time to make more builds to fit the category
