55 monk basics tutorial

[HaloToday]

Great job on all the tutorials, I'm sure there are several GW players that can really appreciate you doing all this. One thing though, when i'm 55'ing and die I replace a piece of armor that has the duplicate superior rune with one that has a attunement rune, that way you don't lose anything on your stats

Hey GuildWarsBuddy,

Massive fan of your videos btw.

What was the link to your website again?

Nice tutorial, I just came back to the game after a 3 year break. I used to run my 55 fire ele on normal modes but didn't get a chance to try in hard modes before I left. I'll definitely have to try her out again now after seeing this.

As for the armor, normal max armor with sup runes on all the pieces and radiant insignias.

Weapon is 20% enchanting weapon and -50 health grim cesta.

thanks man :)

ey i have a question It doesnt have much to do with the 55 monk

Look

if you have normal armor, not the best weapons ever build, and dont know builds who are the best.. How do you make money? xD

[GuildWarsBuddy]

Valid question.

I answered this in my "how to make money in GW" video.

First of all, finish the campaigns. Just doing that and picking up your drops will get you a nice bit of money, since there are cash rewards for missions and quests.

Get in the habit of selling your drops.

Also, invest your money in good equipment and needed skills.

If you are low on funds, don't buy mini-pets and rare skin weapons.

Pick a class you want to farm with and buy what is needed with your meager means.

this is good except for one thing, HOW THE FUCK DO YOU GET THERE. I can NOT kill all of the skales, theres always one and he'll run off before the aoe can kill him and he gains heal with reap impurities

[GuildWarsBuddy]

The groups of scale before the res shrine should be avoided. Time your mystic regen well and keep walking past them. They'll cripple you, but unless they interrupt your prot, you'll be fine.

After the res shrine, and before the big bell, there are 3 more scales. Best to fight them, since their hex slows you down, making getting pst the bell hard.

dunno if somebody said it before .. but instead of taking off some armor you could actually just take your deadly cesta and drag it into you inv. That actually solves the problem

[PlasticChristmasTree]

the thing is is that the deadly cesta gives you energy, so you dont want to do that

[drmcnugget101]

does it matter if u have max armor or not??

[shotkill2]

yes, u always want max armor when doing this

[pstudinski]

Very nice!

I'd like to try this location. But I can't get past the skales in the beginning without aggroing them. How do you get past them?

[ShineAqua]

Well done, this is by far the best tut. on anything GW I've ever seen. Did you write a script, because most people just babel. :p

[GuildWarsBuddy]

No, I just record the video, talking as I go, but not recording my voice. Once I've got the video recorded, I dump it into moviemaker and hit "narration" and explain the video again, but this time I record. Export as 720p quality and you're done.

5 mins of video

5 mins of narration

20 mins of rendering

15 mins uploading.

Takes less than an hour for a 5 min tutorial.

[SEESEESMACK]

what runes did u use ?

[GuildWarsBuddy]

Sorry for not replying. Must have missed your comment.

All the -75HP monk runes, a second +3 prot prayers on your headpiece, which whould be a prot headpiece. Radiant insignia on all your armour.

[GuildWarsBuddy]

Depends where you 55. In this location, the undead drop gold skull shields, a whole bunch of swords (Salient and dead) and some staffs. A lot of warrior tomes and dyes drop as well.

Any area that doesn't strip enchants should be fine. Ranged enemies or hydras make excellent targets.I run this same build in the gates of kryta mission, also in hard mode. There you get more bows and staffs.

The desert in proph is a good spot too.
