Guild Wars - Farming Elemental Swords

1- Hard mode chest runs. Lots of good loot here as always. Elite tomes, gold runes, cool skins.

2- Take your Elemental/Assassin to the Remains of Sahlaja (A/E also works but I prefer the Ele). Need two quests active, "A Show of Force" and "Requiem for a Brain" . Second one is not required, but better for lightbringer/sunspear farming. Yea I know everyone does it but they go in groups of 5 to 8 solely for lb/ss points. You will be taking heros and henchies for the quests but stop at the temple. Check wiki for info on the quests. There are videos on you tube for this already but thought I'd post it here anyway.

Herere's your build: Earth-16, Shadow Arts-12, Energy Storage-rest. Skills:

Shadow Form (E), Death Charge, Glyph Elem Power, Sliver, Aftershock, Crystal Wave, Deadly Paradox, Shadow of Haste.

Equipment: 20% enchant weapon. +12 energy offhand. I use straw effigy with health +30 and Half skill earth skill recharge. Doesn't really matter just need the energy.

Once at the temple, flag your heros at the res shrine. They may not be grey from where you start but they will turn grey once in the shrine whichmeans ALL the LOOT is yours. Beats splittingit with 5 other people. About 2 aggro bubble distance from the shrine with all the Monoliths cast Shadow of Haste. (It's a stance that lasts 34 seconds that when it ends, returns you where you activated it. It is what allows you to kill em all wthout being constantly rez'd)

Edge up closer to the shrine where your aggro bubble doesn't yet touch any red dots. Then cats Shadow Form and run to the far shrine on the right and trigger it. I usually do the lastone on right and the second to the last on the right, then use Deadly Paradox to cancel the stance and return. Once all recharged repeat with the last 2 shrines on the left. Keep activating shrines from the far end working closer until you have all but the last one on the left active. I do the first shrine on the right (springs the 3 Margnite bosses) last. Don't activate all the shrines (leave 1) or else you will have to abandon and retake the quest.

Now for the killng. Again, Shadow of Haste, edge close to the shrine wthout aggroing, cast Glyph of Elemental Power, Shadow Form and then Death Charge to a nice target in middle of mob. Now cast Sliver, Aftershock, Crystal Wave. You should see a screen full of yellow #'s flying aroud and you slaughter the mobs. When Shadow Form starts to flash, use Deasdly paradox to cancel SoH and return safely to repeat again until all the mob is gone. As the number of foes drops, the killing rate slows so I like to get all the monoliths first over the Margonites. Sometimes, I get bored and finish of the last 2 or 3 with my henchies in Wurms.

Notes: Margonite Reapers penetrate Shadow Form with Mystic Twister which can kill you. As you are popping shrines, if I see a Reaper has popped, I will target him on the next run versus popping more shrines. 2 Reapers can kill you, 3 will definitely kill you so don't let too many of them pop-up before you kill 1 off.

The 3 bosses drop good loot. I like to pop them last and kill them first. Then back to the Monoliths. Once done, bring lots of lockpicks. I always use the Locked Chest that spawns for this quest for a chance at some great loot.

If you die, no big deal, dp goes away fast. I just flag my heros and henchies into the mob where they are slaughtered. Then you all rez back at the shrine since you mostl likely died in the middle of the mob. There is a small spot of sulfurous haze on the right side of the entrance that you can flag your hero's to. A little tricky but when they die here, no dp accrues. Remember if your whole party gets to 60 dp, then no res at the res shrine, booted from the area without your loot. Again, should not be a problem since 3 kills solo and 15 dp is gone. I got 12 skill points in 3 runs from all the exp.
