Usage

 * Equip your Norn title and make sure you are in Hard Mode.
 * Start from Longeye's Ledge to Jaga Moraine. Don't aggro anything along the way.
 * Take the bounty (if desired). If this is the first time you've encountered this shrine keeper, bring heroes along to quickly defeat him and flag them away from the farm afterwards. You will not need to bring them in future runs.
 * Maintain Channeling or Mantra of Earth, SF and SoD (cast both under Deadly Paradox), and your optional skills. (Note: When it says maintain SF you want to recast it before it expires. If you wait too long there is a chance that SF will be off for a split second before you get it back on and this will cause you to lose the dmg reduction you've worked up.)
 * Recast Shroud of Distress on recharge to get the damage reduction stack.
 * Group the vaettir up into a tight ball. You can do this in two separate pulls, or in one (see the videos).
 * Kill them using Arcane Echo and Wastrel's Demise (tabbing to a new vaettir after hexing one). Rinse and repeat.

Counters

 * Failure to maintain SF.
 * Taking too much damage. (Should only happen if you're not using the right equipment.)

Dragon Moss Farming

 * Requires the A New Escort quest.
 * Run into Drazach Thicket from Saint Anjeka's Shrine.
 * Maintain all enchantments and.
 * Agro all of the Dragon Moss and run back towards the shrine along the ledge. They should ball up on the ledge behind you.
 * Recast enchantments for a fresh set then cast ->  -> and then keep spamming Wastrel's pressing   each time to switch to a different target.
 * If you brought other damage spells, you can cast those as well.
