Warrior Pongmei Farm (post farm nerf)
This build is designed to farm pongmei valley solo after the nerf, it utilises stances for
survivability and adrenal attacks for damaging one foe at a time, to prevent fleeing.

Class: Warrior/X

Attributes:


Skillbar:


1.Dismember; inflict a deep for 18 seconds.
2.Executioners Strike; attack for +36 damage.
3.Penetrating Blow; attack for +18 damage, this attack as 20% ap.
4.Gladiator's Defense [e]; for 11 seconds you have a 75% to block attacks, melee attacks
blocked cause 3x damage to the foe.
5.Protector's Defense; for 11 all adjacent allies have a 75% chance to block attacks, ends if you move.
6.Shield Stance; for 21 seconds, while wielding a shield you have a 75% chance to block attacks, but you move 33% slower.
7.Disciplined Stance; for 11 seconds you have a 75% chance to block attacks, this stance ends if you use an adrenal skill
8.Healing Signet; heal yourself for 159 health

Weapons:
I suggest using Shield with bonuses in stance and a Axe with bonuses in stance or 15^50.
You could also use a sword, by swapping the axe skills for suitable sword skills.
You could also use a hammer, but would have to swap Shield Stance for Defensive Stance,
during which you would be unable to use skills.

Using the build:

Exit Maatu Keep and look to your right you will see a group of about 4 Kirin who will run towards a couple of Undergrowths as you approach.



Aggro all these enemies, when you are engaged begin attacking a Kirin and activate Disciplined Stance. When this stance ends unleash your adrenal attacks and activate Gladiator's Defense. Use Healing Signet if your health falls below 250-300. Continue attacking the kirin Until it is dead then move on the next Kirin. Follow up Gladiator's Defense with Protector's Defense, then that with Shield Stance. Kill the rest of the Kirin then move on to the Undergrowths. The reason you kill them in this order is because the Kirin use Animate Vampiric Horror, these things can be a nuisance when you've finished the group off.



Move in the direction on the map, as you move south a group of Kirin will run towards the road.



Intercept and aggro them, and proceed as earlier.



Moving east you will see a couple of Undergrowths near the valley wall, marked on the map. As you approach some Kirin will run up from the south, aggro these as well as the Undergrowths. Again Kill them as with the first group.

From here head south and go east then south around the sticky up thing. You will encounter a few more Undergrowths and some Wardens, both which are easy to kill with minimal use of the stances.

As you approach the southern end of the sticky up thing you will see an embattled guard.
Run to his rescue and slay the fiends who dare attack him!

Go north up the other side of the sticky up thing and kill the Wardens and Undergrowths
there. This is your farm run completed.

The build in action:

In Action

Map for entire run:



Have fun killing stuff :-)

The template code for the skillbar and attributes is:
ARNRckclloCqmK6Sl1L8KAA

Create a new text file in program files/guild wars/templates/skills.
Then copy and paste the code into the the new text file.

Enjoy.

Guide made by Riotpoll, if this guide is a duplicate of any existing build for this purpose it is
not my fault, I adapted this from a build that no longer worked for farming this area (shatter
hex farmer).

  Lance Wrongbow on 10/26/06 18:33

Also I might sound like a noob but hey its a recent update :D. How do I download your template?

  darkyoshiwar on 10/26/06 20:03

create a .txt file and then copy the code into the file.


  Sir Kahns on 10/26/06 20:47
 
hmm all very nice but what do they drop?

  syko spoo on 10/26/06 22:40
 
also towards the word pongmei on the map theres another group u can farm

  confORmist on 10/26/06 23:15

The AI has improved there, the undergrowth and, kirin move away from glad's so it gets a bit tricky. Seems to take a little longer than it used to.

  cswella on 10/26/06 23:31

I just tried it and they didn't run. None of them ran.

  Tor Den Mektige on 10/27/06 08:33

does cyclone axe and tripple chop make them run? :'(

  Soqed Hozi on 10/27/06 09:10

not all aoe makes foes flee, if they think they can kill you, they will not flee, so, for example, you attack a pair of jade armours, you are uninfused and spiritbonding, they will not stop attacking you despite having retribution on you.

good guide and well laid out. Good idea puting in the template.

  cruger on 10/27/06 10:50

yea about that if they think they can kill you thing.

how about being a 55? having that little health got to make them think
they can kill you. havent tried, anyone have?

  jimr625 on 10/27/06 11:55

55 doesn't take care of the problem. They at least programmed them to think past the low HP. Tried it last night. You can still stay alive just fine, but when they get low on health they flee.

  Master Hijikata on 10/27/06 15:41

Ummm what do they drop ??? and im looking for other warrior builds and farming spots im new to factions and dont know where to farm ty =).

  Riotpoll on 10/27/06 17:29

You get crafting materials, mainly dust, keys, gold, and items :)

And thanks for the comments guys.

  mechanolas bear on 10/28/06 16:07

for real ill do this with an w/mo much quiker in about 8min I aggro and defeat all ungrowth and kirin

  Belshazaarswrath on 10/29/06 14:05

MEh i still thin kteh barrager build is alot faster. I can run through this in about 3-5 minutes with that build.

I havent ran the ranger vigarous build in pongmei after the nerf; but sicne you have constant selfheal; wont they run away? just my 2 cents. As said i havent done pongmei farming after i got my Rit in UW and NF came out :S

  Valans on 11/02/06 15:21

Theres also a different build.(sorry if you get insulted from me putting another build on yours) You can farm a more stable way.
Tripple chop, dismember, executioners strike, bonetties, vig spirit, life vicariously,mending, heal breeze. Put enchants on you then rush in gather em then use tripple chop. Then go the Droks troll farm format and it works. =)


  Corellon Larithien on 11/02/06 20:56

dude uve got 4 stances there. i no wat ur trying to do: always be in a stance, and still be able to use skills right? well just use glads and boneti's. when galds ends, use bonetti's till its recharged, then heal when ur using glads. this way, u have two extra skill spots, so u can put other skills like to the limit, or cyclone axe in, and also u get energy back with bonetti's :). plus u cant pursue with shield stance on, u cant move at all with protectors defense, and disciplined stance costs 10 energy! dont get me wrong, the build uve got works fine, but there are sooooooo many stances. u can do either that or use glads, shield, and defensive (thats 11+20+21= more than 45) ur always in a stance there too. but thats just a suggestion.
