Disclaimer the following is full of reported and non reported bugs. If they ever fix the bugs your skills and/or strategy may need to change
GM
Discordance
Hiding
Magery
Mining
Music
Spellweaving (level 6 focus)
60 stealth (nekkid,cloth or med armor) (1)
***Hiding and stealth are not really needed***
Orc Brute Farming
Recall in to the Orc Cave
Hide and stealth to a Brute
There are 2 in the cave (2)
Cast Dryad Allure. If you fail you take damage. If you succeed you have an allured Brute which takes up 3 pet slots
Tell it to guard you so it takes all the aggro (3)
Since this is Demise you do not have to leave for another Brute to spawn to replace the 1 you allured (4)
By keeping it in the cave you can recall to any facet to drop off ingots and gold and it will not vanish (5). This saves you from having to use a bag of sending
The allured guarding Brute does all the fighting you just discord the other brutes and loot and smelt the ore. If you find yourself having to wait too long cast wildfire on the discorded brute it should cast an orc but it doesn't (6)
After killing a few brutes you will fall into a routine and once you are comfortable with what you are doing bring some gargoyle pick axes with you to pass the time as you wait for a brute to spawn.
Remember your allured Brute acts like a pet but it isn't.(7) So shadow iron and valorite elemental rules apply (8)
Do not use furies because your allured Brute will not attack anything the furies are fighting until the furies dissipate or are killed off
If your allured Brute dies just allure another
On Demise allure monsters lose loyalty (9) so feed them
To take the allured Brute out of the cave the easiest way is to use a moon gate.
They do not recall with you
You can not recall out logout and login to have it beside you
If you logout they disappear
Once you leave the Orc Cave you must always stay on the same facet as the allured Brute. If you don’t it will disappear
Allured monsters are not pets because........
On OSI 110 or higher in animal lore is needed to lore an allured monster. Less than 110 you would get a message that at your skill you can only lore tamed or tamable creatures. Demise treats allure monsters as pets and you can lore them with less than 110 animal lore. (10)
Farming Elementals Using Allured Monsters
You need to be friended to a fire beetle and have it follow you

Put your allured monster on guard
A simple Razor macro
This will also directly smelt the ore from the elemental corpse
Double click by type (gargoyle pick axe)
Wait for target
Target relative tile
Double click iron ore (works for all ore colors)
Wait for target
Click absolute target (fire beetle)
Loop
The only time you need to stop your macro is for the shadow and valorite elementals.
When they pop up
Stop the macro
As the allured monster fights the elemental(s) discord the elemental
Cast furies (2)
Cast wildfire
They are quickly dealt with
You can stop your macro to save an AFK gathering bot ( or 5) but that just leads to a lower ingot output for you while their production doesn’t change.
Stopping to protect the players not paying attention to their characters will cost you a lot in ingots.
A monster's corpse takes 7 minutes to disappear
At GM Mining
3 Gold elementals (1 to 150 ingots)
2 Shadow elementals (100 ingots)
1 Bronze elemental (1 to 50)
1 Dull Copper (50 ingots)
So anywhere from 152 to 350 ingots
Not counting the ore that was smelted and or lost by not stopping the macro in less than 7 minutes
A monster's corpse takes 7 minutes to disappear
Here are 6 dull copper elemental corpses and a verite elemental corpse
So not counting the ore that was mined up and smelted by not stopping the macro ( this is the ore the AFK bot gathers when you stop your macro and they recall in to mine) while the allured monster killed the elementals
300 dull copper ingots and anywhere from 1 to 50 verite ingots in less than 7 minutes.
Fleeing elementals your allured monster has given up on (11) will either come back for revenge or you will meet up with it/them later
Because regular mining yields a lot of iron ingots logically elemental farming using gargoyle pick axes will yield more dull copper ingots than anything else
So
Stopping your macro
To save bots from dying. Here are 2 of the 4 bots that recall in and out
Just cuts into your ingot production
TL;DR
Yes
