This build is a standard permasin using the defense and regen of the Shadow Form and Shroud of Distress combo to quickly farm feathers outside Lion's Arch. The main benfits of this build are the fact it is easy and simple to use and that, despite being slower than more skill-intensive elite mission farmers it offers quick cash with virtually no risk of losing money or coming back emptyhanded.

Attributes and Skills
[build prof=A/E Shadow=12+1+3 Fire=12][Glyph of Swiftness][Shadow Form][Shroud of Distress][Bed of Coals][Lava Font][Optional][Optional][Fire Attunement][/build]


 * Optional 1:
 * Essentialy the better option, as SF limits your damage output.
 * Larger AoE and burning than Fire Storm.


 * Optional 2:
 * Probably the best option for newer or easygoing users, as it can save you when you are low on hp and acts as a speed buff.
 * Decent IAS, but has little benefit after the first run.
 * Good IAS. Alcohol optional.
 * If you are a careful player and pull small mobs, this can make a good damage buff and IAS.
 * Inferior to others, but can be a good finisher spell.
 * If you are that bad. It also makes a nice shadow step if you know how to use it.

Equipment

 * Armor
 * Standard high energy max armour, with Shadow Arts runes.
 * Weapons
 * Max energy staff of enchanting.

Usage
Once you zone into North Kryta Province, use your IAS to run west and then north. Remember to hug the south wall at the very beginning to avoid spawning a Shining Blade ally, as he will get in the way and let you get interrupted. Cast your first 3 skills in order when you go past fire imps. Once you have reached the Caromi Tengu area, cast 1,2,3 and engage. Run away from the tengu so they ball into a group, cast Fire Attunement then run into the mob and cast your damage skills. Renew 1, 2 and 3 as neccesary.

Counters

 * Overaggroing and dying by damage.
 * Spawning Shining Blade and getting rupted.
 * (Somehow) Using all your energy.
 * Failing to maintain your enchantments.

Variants

 * Change all Fire Skills to similar Earth Magic, like and.
 * Swapping a damage skill for.
