Share your farming places

We all need money Cool. So maybe lets make this a place to share your farming locations and builds for different classes, so that every1 can find something that suits him. I'll begin.

My favourite farming spot is the Pongmei Valley run (on the way from Maatu Kepp to Tanglewood). I'm farming it with a standard ranger Barrage/Live vicarously/vigorous spirit build, but anything able to survive the melee attacks of mobs there (Stone scale kirin & undergrowths) while doing dmg in the same time can farm there(eg.hundred blades/stance tank). The run is ridicoulously easy and fast. The income is 1.5-2.5k from loot + gold drops (average 1 for 5 runs).

Sooo share & discuss^^

I hear Norfolk is good for farming... Wink Seriously though, I suck at farming cos i'm a lowly elementalist, so if someone wants to come with me to farm that would be great.

Oh, I do know that you can farm the vermin outside Senji's Corner as a Warrior/Ele - ask Jamie for the build. Smile

Once upon a time, in a far away place, a lonely necromancer came up with a way to earn some cash without the trouble of looking for teams or sharing the loot
This was called Thirstyfarming, and took place in the scar just outside thirsty river. The necromancer had to rely on his high curse and bloodmagic skills to survive(15 curse 15 blood) for he had chosen ranger as his second profession, which sucked arse Sad
The idea was to use enfeeble, spiteful spirit and insidious parasite on the many war, ranger foes while, if needed, using bloodmagic to sustain his life.
the necro faced some problems however: first the behemoths he liked to farm used healing spring to pospone their inevitabel death, but a few shots from his staf could solved that problem.
the second more important problem where the many jade scarabs guarding his favorite prey (behemoths and rockeater scarabs), these necro bugs used spikes to deal damage and couldnt be harmed by enfeeble for their attacks were alrdy pathetically weak. To survive their attacks he could never fight more than two at the time, and only in good condition and he had to rely on spells such as vampiric gazen life siphon and unholy feast to survive, and of course insidous parasite which turned al those weak attacks into health (SS to deal damage)
with this build he could even farm the griffons at the end of his run, as long as he succeeded in luring only two or less griffs at the same time

Looking back on it this build was pretty lousy, like 6k in an hour
but hey, atleast i posted something here Razz

Green farming

Some bosses can easily be farmed (ie. the ones with no self heal). ive used 55 monk and my warrior to farm most of the bosses i can. However, there are some bosses that either come with some monks for healing, have great self healing, or a very high damage output. Some of these greens can be sold for a lot

eg Ghial's Staff, can be solo'd with W/Mo

Well, I'll add this place even though that everyone knows about it since you've all come along, but the farming in the Eternal Grove and Mourning Veil Falls is good - lots of bosses and chests. Just try and take as few henchies as possible to maximise your drops. This is also a good place to farm for materials

Also, Pongmei Valley is good for soloing. Jamie has a good W/Mo build for soloing it so go and hassle him for it Twisted Evil

K Monty, there is a build to farm most of the enemies in Pongmei Valley as a W/Mo.

The skills are as follows:

Triple chop, Cyclone Axe, Shield Stance, Bonetti's Defense, Live Vicariously, Vigorous Spirit, Dolyak Signet, Sprint

Just be careful of the rot wallows, you can only take on 2-3 at one time.

Farming

Well, I have a few...

Any Character: I use HFFF farming in lutgardis. You earn 150g per run (as well as 400 faction) and each run takes me barely a minute. I can run up to 2 leechers alongside. I usually charge 100g per run, netting me 350g per minute or so. I run all guild and alliance mates for free.

Assassins: (A/E) HM. I farm south of Remains of Sahlahja. I take 3 heros and a hench and take the worms to the tombs with the monoliths are. (This is also a great run to bump up your lb/ss points). Each run usually takes about 25mins. I usually get at least 1 gold drop, most of the time its not perfect but if it is then you can research the selling price and make a few bob. Also, this place is where the elemental sword drops and if you get a req 9 then its worth a lot of money. The monoliths drop various shards that can be salvaged into granite, which is also worth a bit. Also, this is the area where one of the treasure chests are found.

Derv, War, Rit: Underworld. There are a few various builds used. I have a few builds for some of these primary professions just because its a really boring run and I like some variation at times. Elementalists and some other builds can also run underworld solo. If you cant run solo then try a tag team.

Necro:With my necro, I use a 55 build for general farming of any greens etc quite successfully. Greens arent worth as much anymore though so its not one that I use often. The Bison tournament quest in EOTN is a good place to use a slight variation of the 55 build. You can complete the challenge for the tokens and sell them for at least 1-1.5k a piece. You need to be lucky to get this run completed every time though, as there are one or two of the random challengers who may make it quite tough to complete.

Dervish: I find the dervish is one of the best professions for running. If you dont mind running, try the drokanrs forge run with a dervish. Its a long run so patience is required. There are always people looking for runs here (2k pp usually) netting you up to 10k per run with a full party. Each run takes about 20-30mins depending on your skills. This definately needs a lot of practice and can be very boring.

Warrior: Glints challenge EOTN. A similar build I use for my warrior with underwolrd farming, use this to farm for destroyer cores in EOTN. Destroyer cores are required for destroyer gloves (250 total). I think last time I checked going price for a core is about 300g? A very easy run, but demand for destroyer cores is a lot less nowadays.
