Lenne's Rise in Caelid was easily one of the safest "AFK" rune farm locations when the trend started. Upon learning that the AoE on Lightning Greatbolts and Explosive Greatbolts can hit through the floor underside and walls it became realistic to eliminate hosts hiding at the top though. It was interesting to see how quickly these players abandoned the spot after a few invaders with minor preparation arrived, this place is also where I got the most preemptive disconnects if I started hitting too close.
After switching builds there were a few invasions here where I couldn't fully eliminate the host though. Generally it was because the host wasn't really afk, greatbolt carry limitations, and the host constantly getting more heals from anyone dying (absolutely broken design that the host get's a flask refill for THEIR summons dying btw). In those moments finding invasions was generally slow anyways so instead of finishing the job I ended up completely halting their rune farm for an hour or so by farming blues instead. Although most just didn't care at all about their host situation I did find a few who were chill and in one case when I gave a hunter some Lord Runes for their understanding they gave me back a stock of lightning greatbolts.

🤔 Walking on Air
============================
Some of you are probably wondering about the clip at the start and end of the video, where I float across the air. It's a stance moveswap, the same type you see a lot of speed/challenge runners using to skip certain areas of the game with, which I recommend looking up how to do from Dist's video about it.
To perform it you will need
- A weapon with a stance skill (the ashes of war "square off" and "unsheath" work)
- Marika's Hammer (others may work but I know for sure this one can clear the building gap)
- A compatible switch weapon (anything with Gravitas works as well as a few hammers)
Try setting up your inventory so the stance and switch weapons are next to each other, sort inventory by weight/ar/acquirement to help with this. Place the target skill weapon in your mainhand, the stance weapon in your offhand, two hand the offhand stance weapon and then
- Perform an action like an R1 or roll
- Press L2 during the action to buffer the stance
- Open your equipment menu
- Swap the stance weapon to the compatible weapon
- Close menu using the options button.
The slightly tricky part about clearing the building gap at Lenne's Rise is that you want to aim for the building's roof corner seen at 0:05 from about the middle of the tower's lower roof and WHILE the hammer is raised to HOLD your run button. Also be cautious to not have too much stray directional input while running because halfway through the weapon art there is a point where you can redirect the run.
NOTE: Still works as of
