I read venomancers are the best for soloing and farming is that true? If so what build is purely for farming and PVE. What stats, armor, weapons are used?

Thanks

    Normally, the PvE venomancer build is the mag one. Just put enough points in str for your equipment, give it a bit of vitality if you want, and all else to mag.

    Venomancers are best at soloing for a single reason - they have a pet. This is like a mage (high damage) that comes with a tank (the pet) and a healer (you can heal the pet b:laugh).

    So what happens at 60+? Do monsters ignore the pet, so you need Vit and armor? Are the maps crowded so you can't find a safe spot to stand without aggoring stuff around you?

    Your still very good at farming even at higher levels im 71 now and have not any big problems to farm.
    You do have to learn how every kind of target react at the damage you deal.

    I also noticed in general that if you are farming on targets 4-5 levels below you your pet struggle to keep the aggro. But in general the targets die faster so you just have to learn how many spells you need to finish it off.

    The problem you will have are when you get in trouble for some reason. If you went the pure magic build way. You die really fast if the mobs get to you. Even faster if they using physical damage on you.

    Always be ready to jump on your mount or run when your in tricky situations.
    And we do have a lot of tricks in our spellbag that are really usefull to survive. its just a question of having the time to use them.

    Venos rocks

    Edit reason: 4-5 below you are when you do fb:s or other elite mobs. Normal mobs i hardly ever have a reason to kill if they are lower then me.
