Mo/Me Solo FoW or UW

Credits

I got inspired from a screenshot on Gameamp, showing someone who took down the first group on the left. From that i devoloped the build and wrote a guide for it.

Skills

Protective Spirit
Shield Of Absorption
Illusionary Weaponry ( Use preorder NF sythe if you have other wise a Sythe with +20% enchant)
Ignorance (FoW Healing Signet) Or Power Return (UW Rend Enchantments)
Sv
Av
Balthazar's Spirit
Blessed Aura

Attributes

Protection Prayers = 14(10+1+3)
Domination = 4 (none with Power Return)
Illusion = 12
Divine Favour = Spare points (ill check in game later)

Screenshots
First Shard


Method

Underworld

Use power return for Dying Nightmares. Divine Favour incase you start bleeding. Keep Sv or Av up all the time! It is possibly to take out coldfires. Lure Smites then run into the Soldfires, Sv and Av will drain the Coldfires energy so they cant self heal, deal with the Coldfires before Smites. I have managed to complete a succesful Smite run with a few Coldfires killed.

Fissure Of Woe

Use Sv and Av as covers for Shatter Enchant then use Sv and Av to drain there energy. Leave mele people to last. Divine Favour as healing for burning. Use Ignorence for Shadow Warriors.
Kill in this order Monk > Mesmer > Elementist > Warrior > Shadow Beast (mele Necromancer)
I have managed to get past the first few groups. (I died because a patrol with a Mesmer came along and ripped Prot Spirit)

I don't know. I've died in no time in fow.

Edit: Works great with 55 monk :P

Is this better than VwK?

Don't know but just got my first Shard

Great build thanx:P

It works, and it works great. Nights always give me a heartattack but I manage. Got to Smiters but got a wrong aggro. Nice build, good thinking.

P.S. I wouldn't recommend this to any monk. It's not easy. I suggest you have proper experience with monking in UW before doing this. Remember: Have fun!

is it possible to do this build with soa?

since i dodn't have nf

Aww damn it!

I was just working on same idead with SoA idea+ illusionary wep with sycthe's special ability.

Well you beat me to it. Great job on build.

But ofcourse if you use a scythe, they flee...

Just curious, you will no doubt have an answer but wat happens in UW as far as enchant stripping?

IIRC, the only enchant removal on a UW run are the Nightmares, and I'd imagine that's what power return is for

Wouldn't the 130 Boss farming dervish be better for soloing FoW?

I used a build similar to this to farm Bolten's Recurve Bow for my ranger. IW is really slow though.

What about mesmers and Shater Enchantment in FoW?

Last Update before christmas, next time I'll be online is just after New Year.
