Default Assassin Troll/Minotaur Farming

Hello and welcome to my latest Assassin farming build, this build is mainly for trolls and minotaurs (in elona reach), I know troll farming is dead but felt like making a build just for the hell of it

Profession:

Assassin/Warrior

Equipment:

6-28 Axe (with Damage +15% while stance, 15% while health above 50% or 15% while enchanted) a Zealous or Vampiric axe haft followed by a health bonus axe grip.

As a shield I personally prefer a peppermint or gingerbread shield (since those have 10 armor without any requirement). Any other shield will work though.

Attributes:

11 Axe Mastery
12 Critical Strikes
12 Shadow Arts
Rest in tactics

Armor:

Full Nightstalker Set with a Shadow arts max and a Superior Shadow arts rune.

*drumrolls* and finally we get to know the skills.

Skills:

Executioner's Strike
Penetrating Blow/Chop
Cyclone Axe
Dark Escape
Way Of The Assassin {elite}
Critical Eye
Critical Defenses
Way Of Perfection

How it works:

Now that you know the build its time to know how it works. Exit to Talus Chute from Droknar's Forge and Head to the hill to the west until you arrive at the troll cave, just before taking aggro cast Way of the assassin followed by critical eye followed by way of perfection and finally cast critical defenses. Now you're ready for action, Approach the group of trolls and wait till they group around you and here's where you use cyclone axe followed by executioner's strike and penetrating chop/blow. Keep doing this until all trolls are dead and then you can head to Krogg Shmush (the warrior boss) Takes a bit to kill him due to lack of axe mastery runes.

Well here's where it ends, hope you like my build. Enjoy

This will be nice for my sin to help her earn the survivor title. Good job

I thought that Aoe was nerfed for certain things such as cylone axe and shield of judgement

This would be nice if someone is looking to farm everything with a sin alone, but there are much faster ways of farming trolls/minos.

A/Mo works better in my opinion...

Welcome to the old school vigorous assassin build.

Unsuspecting strike, wild strike, Critical strike, moebius strike, critical eye, critical defenses, vigorous spirit, live vicariously

13 critical
10-12 dagger
and 12 healing

this build survives easily (considering theres plenty of trolls around to keep crit defenses up) and deals easy dmg...maybe not aoe, but i just think this has always worked for me better.
