I had this idea to make a build that could solo farm perdition rock.  Well after much testing here he is.

E/Mo

Earth Magic 11 ---> Minor Rune
Fire Magic  8 -----> Minor Rune
Energy Storage 13 ----> Head set + sup. rune
Smiting 10

Skills

Balthazar's Aura, Symbol of Wrath, Balthazar's Spirit, Aura of Restoration, Crystal Wave, Meteor Shower, Obsidan Flesh (elite) Armor of Earth

Decked out in full puromancer armor

The strategy is pretty basic.
The hydra AI is as follows: Cast Glyph of Renewal ---> Cast Meteor Shower ---> move into melee range ---> cast inferno ---> Cast Meteor Shower ----> Cast Phoenix

The glyph of renewal means that those meteor showers start coming in pretty quick (annoying). So the plan is to use Obsidian Flesh so that they can not target you with pheonix or meteor shower.  Start of with Balthaza's aura on.  Wait for the hydra's to start coming down in groups of 4 or less.  When they are about in range cast aura of restoration (this is your self healing).  Now arrgo the group. Let them cast their first meteor shower and just dodge it, while pulling them down near Ember Light so that you don't arrgo any more groups.  Once they are finished with casting meteor, cast Obsidian Flesh, now they will move into melee range since they can't cast anymore spells on you. Cast armor of earth, Cast Balthazar's aura, Cast Meteor Shower, Cast Symbol of Wrath, Cast Crystal Wave, Cast 2nd Bal. Aura = Dead hydras.

Once Obsidian Flesh runs out (17 seconds) they are free to cast Meteor on you, hopefully by this time and it normally works out, the 2nd Balthazar's aura will be ready to cast and finish them off.

You can use the basic same strategy to solo farm the Flesh golems also. I haven;t tried the Drakes yet but I assume them easier than Hydras.  The Darkfire Dryders are a pain in the ass since they but bunch up and Cast Chilibans which is murder for this build. Drops are very nice as these are level 24 creatures.

Anyone know a good video encoder so I can post a clip of this farming technique?

Two very interesting areas to adventure to are the Underworld and Fissure of Woe.  The problem with these places is that they are exceedingly brutal and require a well put together party of 8 powerful level 20s.  You can always join a pickup patry at the Temple of the Ages, but I'd think it would be way more fun and profitable with an entire party of CH go into these areas.

CH isn't lacking in the tank department, but we do seem to be lacking in the primary monk department, something that is vital in these areas, I'd like to go down with no less than 3 monks, 3 tanks, 2 nukers.  Or perhaps 2 monks, 3 tanks, 2 nukers, 1 mesmer/necro.  What are your opinions?

also I'm thinking weekends are best to organize trips. Opinions?
I am also assuming that American CH can not go with  European CH.  I am correct?

There is a very rare material crafter located here.  

He sells such items of Elonian Leather Squares and Deldrimor Steel Ingots.

I've received complaints and recently noticed myself that users of this site sometimes receive timeout errors (ie. "bluestarnet.com could not be reached") something along those lines when trying to access the boards.  I've changed some configuration setting in PHP to try and solve this problem.  Unfortunately I can not test these changes because I never receive errors of this sort while working from the server iteself.  So I ask you to please post any errors or problems you have with the site here.  

Thanks

If you people would like a portal in GodSpire linking to your server let me know and we can arrange to build one in the Hall of Portals.

Well it's down to 4 very GOOD books!

Sorry there can be only 1 winner....or can there...

The books are in the library in the PvP bookshelf.  Give them a read and cast your vote!

The Godspire Library is now open!

You may read the library's collections of works or submit your own books into the cataloge.

Use this if you need to send me files and such.  You might want to send zip files with a readme.txt reminding me what it is you are sending.

Godspire has been up 50 hours without a single crash
A record!  

The city area is now accessible.  You can get to it by talking with Vash at the Shores.
Right now the only places of interests are the Hall of Portals (which will have portals to different servers such as Throbserve), Mo's Tower, the House of the Bear has also relocated to the city.  I was told the rent was too high in the Halls.  

For those who do not know this sever just ignore this thread.  For those who do:

I had recently spoken to a couple of players from CM.  Seems that the misunderstands between GodSpire and CM is starting to cause grief for some over at CM.  So I told them I would post on the forums asking players from GodSpire not to go over to CM with any other purpose other than to play fair and by their rules.

For some reason they think we are a bunch of uber/hackers...heh i have no idea where they could have got that idea from.  I posted on their forum that there hasn't been a hacker within 20 miles of GodSpire in a very long time.
