3 man titan farm

Anyone who used to 3-man Urgoz Warren should recognize this build. It's a similar concept and can be used to farm all four of the early rooms in the Foundry of Failed Creations.

"600" Monk/Mesmer
Spell Breaker, Spirit Bond, Shield of Absorption, Protective Spirit, Blessed Aura, Essence Bond, Ancestor's Visage, Sympathetic Visage
10+4 Divine Favor, 11+3 Protection Prayers, 10 Illusion
Requires a weapon with +20% enchantment duration

Smiter Monk/Mesmer
Holy Wrath, Retribution, Life Attunement, Vital Blessing, Power Block, Spirit of Failure, Spirit Shackles
8+4 Smiting Prayers, 8+3 Protection Prayers, 10 Domination Magic, 10 Inspiration Magic

Spirit Spam Ranger/Monk
Famine, Quickening Zephyr, Edge of Extinction, Serpent's Quickness, Apply Poison, Mending, Essence Bond, Balthazar's Spirit
11+4 Wilderness Survival, 11+3 Beastmastery, 8 Healing Prayers

The first, third, and fourth rooms are done the same way you would do it two manned, but faster because of the smiter. The smiter should be maintaining his four enchantments on the tank and otherwise staying out of the way.

The difference is that this build can get past the second room. The smiter and the ranger should run through the second room and hide in the corner near the gate to the next room, then the tank should move in to trigger the spawn. Because there are so many fewer enemies in this room, the Sympathetic Visage will not drain the monk entirely of energy. The smiter will need to drop his Holy Wrath, and Power Block the monk. Once power blocked, put Spirit Shackles and Spirit of Failure on the monk. That will finish draining him of energy, letting the Famine kill. Once the monk is down, the build can finish killing the rest of the room normally.

The third and fourth rooms are great sources of Titan Gems. It takes a ton of practice to get this build right, but once you manage to get past the second room you'll be making a ton of money by selling Titan Gems.
