Build talk:Rt/Mo 330hp Vengeful Farmer

Ebon Vanguard Sniper Support
Although I neglected this skill before, I tested it yesterday and it actually opens up some new possibilities, if you manage to get the 500 - 900 damage bonus. For example, you can farm a few groups with healing monks now (Veldt Beetle Queens in kourna for example) and also spike down some bosses that give you a hard time to kill through their own healing abilities. &mdash; DarK  11:24, December 2, 2009 (UTC)
 * Ya you have to get real lucky. Assuming you aren't attacking a Charr, you have less than 50% chance of successfully sniping the foe in the first six shots, or first minute and a half... You have a 75% chance of sniping him in the first 13 shots, thats the first three minutes and a half. I think you have a better chance with PI. [[image:Unwokensig1.png]] 05:15, April 27, 2010 (UTC)

3 proffesions ?
"When engaged in combat, and you don't take enough damage to trigger SB, cast Elemental Resistance, but never cast when you meet with elemental damage. In this case, you'll have 0 armor. "

... this note sais to use elemental resistance if SB doesn't trigger, so with ritualist primary ( for vengefull spirit ) its prety impossible to use both mesmer and monk skills. So the note should probably be deleted 84.198.68.60 08:50, September 12, 2010 (UTC)

Cant farm
I can't farm a damn thing with this build.
 * I can't see the point in this build either. At this point, the standard SoS build works soooo much better against the same foes. Darwin Iznang 01:34, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
 * something different? able to take hits from the aatxes and survive? I've used it before. In fact, I've used a variation of this before to run cof before i got my monk there 2 years ago. Of course, was better with monk. Worked well outside of bergens too. Now there are builds using dwg instead that probably work better, (which sadly will likely get nerfed at this rate). To op, the trick has been to treat it as 55/600 etc. cant farm anything that strips enchants, have to watch degen carefully, moreso than monk. Have to keep protective spirit up and watch energy. Don't spam vengeful weapon unless you need to or have energy to spare and cast spirit bond as vwk wears off, or if you need extra healing to counter degen.
 * It's an option for those that want to use it. It's nice to change from sos occasionally. Still works, so it's here for those that wanna play with it, but it isn't for everyone.Lunatic 03:56, 30 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Gonna necro this topic. How about moving away from the UW angle and just making it a more general purpose farm build? The bar can stay the same. --DefinitelyNotHanz (talk) 13:49, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Sounds good to me. If this build is capable of farming a large range of foes it shouldn't be narrowed down to a single area, even if that one promises globs. --Krschkr (talk) 14:14, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Seems like it can farm a lot of places. Sadly my Rit's not that far into most campaigns so I'm still working on expanding the farmable area list as I progress. I never got into farming as a rit, but that was 10 Shadow Form nerfs ago, so now this build is a lot more desirable and probably one of the best ones out there along with the 105 version. --DefinitelyNotHanz (talk) 21:02, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

Confusion about description
In the seventh bullet under Underworld it says: When engaged in combat, and you don't take enough damage to trigger SB, cast Elemental Resistance, but never cast when you meet with elemental damage. In this case, you'll have 0 armor.

But where is "Elemental Resistance" in the spell list?

 * The usage for this build was probably copy+pasted from a Mo/Me 600 build and tweaked slightly. I've removed it since this has to be Rt/Mo. Toraen -Gifts Plz [[image:ToraenSig3.png|19px]] 21:36, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Viable in UW?
Been trying this in HM UW without success. The bladed aatxes sstart using Savage Slash when they're low on health and interrupt my spells, which kills me. Am I doing something wrong or did something change in the 12 years since the showcase video was uploaded? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by Koervege2 (talk) at 14:53, 15 September 2020‎ (UTC).
 * Yea seen the vid and this build has no real answer against Savage Slash except casting spells as soon as they are available and calculating the timing on their rupt. Dying Nightmares can be problematic without any IMS. To be honest the author of this video said in comments that it's "quite difficult" and made for the "challenge". It's probably possible for this (with a lot of experience) to be profitable overall but there will be a lot of failed runs. As a Ritualist (and you probably know it already) the best option for the Labyrinth might be the very boring SoS and nothing else. Considering that an effective farming build must be somewhat reliable, I suggest removing this video from the page. Feydslynox (talk) 16:07, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Mursaat
This can easily farm the Jade Armors and Jade Bows at the start of the Ring of Fire mission for Mursaat Hammers / Hornbows. I'm using this one for maximum safety but the majority of builds will work here (you just need to cycle correctly between IaU! and VwK as Devastating Hammer is the only real menace).
