Equipment

• Armor: Any armor is good. i.e. Blessed, Geomancer's, Prismatic or Sentry's insignias.
• Weapons: A single handed weapon with a +20% enchantment mod. Have a Shield with added armor against Earth Damage to reduce damage to a minimum.

Usage

• Enter the FoW.
• Cast in this order; Mantra of Earth --> Stone Striker --> Glyph of Swiftness --> Obsidian Flesh --> Stoneflesh Aura.
• Run up to the mob on the right and walk towards the largest concentration of casters.
  • The meleeers will follow.
  • Renew your enchantments and stance as necessary but remember to use Glyph of Swiftness before Obsidian Flesh.
• Cast Crystal Wave when possible and try to get as many foes as you can in one hit.
• Use Radiation Field when you have enough energy and remember it is a ward, so try and find the right distance to encompass as many enemies as possible.
• Ideally, you want to cast in this order; Glyph of Swiftness --> Obsidian Flesh --> Sliver Armor --> Crystal Wave for maximum damage.
• Follow the path going into the FoW Beach and keep all tanking defenses up.
  • The mobs of Shadow Army will follow you and will kill a couple of the Ancient Skales, the Snarling Driftwood, the Doubter's Dryers at the entrance.
  • Keep walking into the Beach and they will break Aggro.
• Kill everything on the beach in the same manner as you did with the first mob.

Variants

• Replace Radiation Field with what ever you like. Some examples may be:
  • Storm Djinn's Haste
  • Teinai's Crystals
  • Arcane Echo
  • Aura of Restoration for farming the Spider Cave.

Notes

• When you get down to the last 1 or 2 enemies, don’t worry about Stoneflesh Aura.
• The single warrior that attacks you in the first mob has Griffon's Sweep, just make sure he uses that up before recasting your enchantments.
