<pvxbig> [build prof=Me/E illu=12+1+3 fast=9+1 insp=9+1][signet of illusions][armor of earth@16][stoneflesh aura@16][mental block][sliver armor@16][grasping earth@16][channeling][mantra of resolve][/build] </pvxbig>

You can replace Mental Block and/or Grasping Earth with AoS and/or EBSoH.

Equipment

Max armor, with Blessed insignias.
20% enchant weapon.

Usage

Always have Signet of Illusions on!

Enter Riven Earth from Rata Sum and get the blessing.
Make your way quickly to the cave avoiding the regular raptors.
Cast Signet of Illusions followed by Stoneflesh Aura, Armor of Earth, Channeling and Mantra of Resolve, then aggro ALL the raptors, leaving the broodmother group last.
After all the other hatchlings are collected, aggro the bloodmothers group.
Immediately before the Rekoff, cast Mental Block.
When all of the raptors are fighting you, cast Grasping Earth and then Sliver Armor.
After Rekoff is dead recast Sliver Armor, to kill off the few remaining raptors.
Pick up the loot and rezone.

Counters

Not maintaining Stoneflesh Aura and Armor of Earth.
Too many interrupts at one time so you lose Mantra of Resolve and therefore, you are dead.
Fighting regular raptors.
