  • Mesmers and ele set to "fight", others to "guard".
  • 40/40 for Mesmers and Necros, otherwise staves with +20% ench.
  • Prodigy, Bloodstained + Torment, or otherwise Blessed insignias.
  • Sup vigs, Sup dom/fc/death/air/es/blood/comm, others major or minor. Vitae on spare slots.


This build intentionally uses only 2 Mesmers and no Monks (for the sake of other setups...)


Insc non-gold Chaos Axe farm[edit]

Setup for the Chaos Axe farm
Path to the drops of the Chaos Axe farm

There is only one place in the game where inscribable non-gold Chaos Axes, Shadow Shields, Shadow Blades, Shadow Staffs, and Shadow Bows drop, and that's The Floodplain of Mahnkelon during the quest Drakes on the Plain.

The trick for an easy and fast run is to only farm the two Obsidian Furnace Drakes right outside Moddok Crevice. These Drakes are above a cliff, so they can't reach the player with their attacks or projectiles.

  • Take Koss (which is required for the quest) and Get out of Moddok Crevice.
  • Flag Koss far into the pool to your south west, and walk back towards the portal to agro the Obsidian Furnace Drakes above the cliff. (See image).
  • Wait a minute for the initial drop rate reduction to pass. (This is a good time to set up another account for the farm).
  • Kill the two Obsidian Furnace Drakes... (see below).
  • If you got any worthwhile drops, run through the floodplain to pick those up. (See image).


The Drakes are out of reach and out of sight and have Obsidian Flesh, so the fight can't relay on close proximity, on projectiles, or on spells not cast at the beginning of the fight.

This bar relies on a few quick spells, signet based conditions, and Necrosis:

When the two drakes are close enough to each other, they can be killed with a simple 1-2-3-tab-2-4-5-6.

The fight-resoze-rezone-flag-grab-agro sequence (up to the wait) can take about 45 second, and inscribable items drop at an estimated rate of 1 per ~30 runs.
