Speaking of Claws, does anyone have a fire farm with kb protection?

Why would anyone want to farm with claws? Theres no Build up or Rage. Does Claws just do 4 AoEs (MU 2 aoes, Burn, Spin) and throw in a Follow Up?

Because you have no need of Rage, Build Up, Follow Up or any other plus damage power once your at the damage cap and can keep the skittle rain falling fast enough to stay there.

Maybe for solo farm, but even then theres a chance of not getting reds are anything to combine. Thats just from 3min solo runs though. Maybe with 2 min run reds would last long enough. Farming a full group of lowbies, theres a big lack of inspirations.

You will never when solo farming run into a situation where you can not keep damage capped with insp while using a set of keybind/macro's/popmenu to combine with.

Most of the people that I have seen farming for cash will not take a full group. Most will take 3 along, some as many as 5. I have rarely seen someone wiling to take a full team into the farm.

If farming lowbies up then they ought be be running keybinds and passing them to you as they come into their trays. Are people really that lazy that they can't be bothered to assist in the pl'ing of their toons?

Now if your charging them to be pl'ed then perhaps their attitude of not passing you insp makes sense since they are buying a service. When I pay for pl I always pass the insp along anyway because I want it done as fast and keeping the farmer at the damage cap is the best way for me to assist.
