Build talk:E/Mo Shockwave Undead Farmer

How does this build get moved to untested?

Change the tag at the top of the page to something, forgot exactly to what, just check out some other untested build pages for the code. And this should not be voted upon yet. Dragnmn talk 17:34, 6 November 2007 (CET)

I've been testing your build and found it works. Though in hard mode, I ended up with energy problems quite often (especially when there weren't that much enemies left) so I designed this build. It can take on more foes and it's safer. It's a little slower though. For the optional slots I used Crystal Wave and Glyph of Swiftness (for Sliver Armor) I also tried my build with Shockwave instead of Elemental Attunement, though I had some Energy problems.

I don't know about the undead, as I haven't farmed there (I've generally shied away from degen areas), but often Crystal Wave outdamages Shockwave in HM, anyway, due to high armor opponents. The breakpoint is about 27 points per hit after armor reduction using Shockwave (27*3*4=324 vs 106*3=318), so check the numbers as you farm (for reference, I've gotten as little as 21 with Shockwave in some areas). Note that I'm also comparing a normal skill to an elite, so I consider 27 to be a poor baseline. If energy is a minor problem, not a huge one, you could use GoLE on maintained skills and the Glyph of Renewal elite to keep Sliver up forever (so mix the Dervish and Monk variants). --False Prophet 00:27, 15 November 2007 (CET)

LOL, I was just testing this build before you put it on (the e/d one)I'll upload a HM movie, which shows the build better, I had his movie done by a friend of mine.., Also im testing builds with other professions, to make it more accessable.--Koning Aiden

who needs all 200 att points anyway? fixing. 76.19.223.231 23:53, 21 November 2007 (CET)

Attributes

Your attribute distribution is a lie. 12-11-8? it should be 12-10-8. Templar612 01:03, 25 November 2007 (CET)

Is this for hard or normal mode?--‎FireTock 15:20, 27 November 2007 (CET)

I accidently happened upon this build again, and while the attribute distribution now is possible, why 12-9-9 when it could be 12-10(Energy Storage)-8 Having 9 healing prayers doesn't give you any better regeneration from Mending or Breeze. Also the attribute distributions on the variants doesn't use their full potential.Templar612 19:20, 29 December 2007 (EST)

Efficient?

I occasionally do HM Gates of Kryta runs, and all thats really needed is a 55 monk. Holy damage does double anyway, and you can SoA/Shielding Hands to handle the huge mob. I would test this and compare them, but unfortunately I dont have a level 20 elementalist. Would someone mind figuring that out? 66.32.234.17 16:50, 4 February 2008 (EST)
