Animist: arboreal spec avaible to farm?

I heard from farming animists that the best spec to solo farm (sheero yea) is a split between creep and verd; I'm curious tough to have more hints and opinions about this and also would love to know if a full arboreal rvr spec can be efficent too for solo farming.
Main issue would be probably the RA spec, where for rvr you would predilict moc over mcl and serenity (typical for solo farming), but maybe, with the use of potions/draught self POM cast and use if tinders, the problem can be solved.

Any toughts?

TLDR; is 50 Arboreal, 19 Creeping, 7 Verdant a decent solo farming spec with the supply of tinders and self casted PoM?

maybe try Creep pet with DD snare,, since your solo no point in going verd to Pbaoe ,unless i was going to be in a AoE grp i wouldnt go verd.

Hey there my friend,

Many people do not realize that solo farming with an Arboreal Animist is incredibly easy.. All the Creeping spec line will give you is a snare pet, which in my opinion is not needed simply because you have unending endo to run the mobs around and with tinders/pots you can keep a full stack of shrooms up and continuously pull for about 1min45secs anything red/purp really.. The main shroom pet will always get the aggro as that is how it is on this server.. When you see your main pet about to go down either quickly place another main pet so it regains agro or start runnin in a circle around your mushrooms.. Its incredibly easy. And yes I do it all the time with my 50 arb RvR Animist.

Amazing man, really helpfull.

Witch RA do you push for rvr? Moc 5 first?

For solo farm how would be the setup? The verdant tank shroom, with creeping snar than max creep dps shrooms?

I feel arb is easier to farm with,since main pet nukes harder,and you always have the aoe bomber to throw a few at high health target if shrooms get crowded.

I farm the azure banishers in Sheeroe with my 50 Arb 20 Creep Animist with no difficulty. I do have serenity 3 and MCL2. I first place my main pet just out of range of 2 of the mobs and cast damage shield on it. I then start casting FnF shrooms on top of it. This will pull 2 mobs. Put main pet on aggro. I keep up the casting of FnF shrooms as they are killed. Main pet will be about 50% life when they die. I blow out my power bar on shrooms pop MCL and keep on casting. When close to out of power I move my GT and recast a shroom in the middle of the mobs to pull the remaining 2. Sometimes the first 2 mobs will repop before the other mobs are dead and perhaps kill main pet and I'll have to run round a bit. After kiting I recast main pet where it was--just out of the camp. I place all future FnF shrooms by the fire in the middle of the 4 mobs. When I get this rolling I never have to heal main pet, put up my shields, or use any kind of pots. I just sit when OOP and keep on pumping the shrooms in the middle of the camp. With salvaging when possible and use of a merch I get close to 3P/hr doing this.

Lol definitely not MOC first atm. I simply went for RA's to maintain power while in RvR. start with MCL 1 and raging power. Then go to MCL2 (keeps your power full after and in-between fights) and then go for purge and casting speed or Ichor . MOC will be after all of that in my opinion. This way you can RvR as well as PvE which seems what you are trying to do...

PS: just go 50 arb then i think 7 or 9 verd for the little aoe bubble. The 50 arb pet nukes harder then the others anyways.

have a good one.

all anis solo farm the same, you max shrooms and sit and regen as they kill

im arb I farm just fine, I have crack4 potions and serenity2, I go out in sherrie hills, I put shrooms in middle of camp and main pet 900 units behind them with it on agro, just spam pets till your out of mana then sit until your mana is full, then respam...you only really gotta do anything for a few secs every like 2 mins
