Yeah I can see that. R/N could also use Unholy Feast to heal themselves... but since your likely already splitting your attributes Im guessing youd tend more towards Parasitic Bond. Gonna get my Ranger up to snuff today and try this out... EOE is my new favorite PVE skill...

Other then Frenzy Stance Tanks and Offensive Frozen Soil Rangers, of course.

Thanks guys this thread is going very well. Mostly I just use that build that I posted because it workes well. I still don't see how spiteful sprirt would work because you need to quickly do the damage, If anyone has any video software and could make a video on these new ideas showing how succesful it would be that'd(<--word?) be great. Remember if any1 has any problems with the build im usally on every day IGN:I Might Avenge U, and im usally farming. So any1 feel free to contact me In game.

Ive been farmin here since i read about this thing, and i think its awsome. A nice run takes me max 5 minutes, and that gives me ~600g including the sales of white and bad drops. This although does not include the price i get for the superior runes that occasionally drop, and not even the 15 while enchanted bows i guett from crawl neclaces.

I have changes a little bit in the build for myself though. I use a r/n with mark of pain, and I am finding dodge to be useless! Though i have not removed it yet, in lack of a better alternative, it is as good as never used. What I do is instead of running all the way to the "peak" of that little mountain where they are supposed to be killed, i take my time. I start the run with EoE, then run towards the midle of the open area with dryders defence. Once dryders run out, i fire whirling and troll, then I use mark of pain on an enemy, oath shot, troll and whirling again, and THEN i run up. This way, i have almost full life when im at the top with most of the crawls are almost dead. I use throw dirt when i hit the top, and just simply clean up all the hammer crawls. Since i have taken so long time, i find more enemies have followed me, and the crones are almost always standing together, not able to move. Whirling slays them nice and easy..

Cool stuff, may try this someday.

I hope those of you doing the farming are turning in your intricate grawl necklaces (40g for 5) into ascalon bows (125g for 5).

your expertise is too low, wilderness survival is too high. 7-8 regen from troll is enough. You want higher expertise to do more damage with whirling ( this is what is doing the killing not MoP)

USe 2 masks with the appropriate superior rune in it. 1 mask for beast mastery to set EoE, another for expertise for your stances( whirling defense)

Does this still work. I keep trying but atleast half the grawl run away when I use whirling defense + throw dirt. I then have 4 grawl hitting me taking next to no damage and I soon die.

that's not my build, I was trying to mod. like as "I Might Avenge U" said in the fist post, and I can never reach that...
also, it's just like what Eavem Asollon said above, the mob will run away after I use whirling defense...

To get max attributes you need:

Suitable headgear
Suitable superior rune(s)
Level 20 status
Completion of two quests that give you 15 attribute points each

If you have all of those, I throw up my hands

Can you throw up some build figures too please. Because I can't see how to get that either.

1) Drop Edge of Extinction
2) Switch Mask to Expertise

3) Dodge (~10 Seconds)
4) Troll Unguent

5) Run between hills, Dodge should be gone by now
6) Lightning Reflexes/Dryder's Defences
7) Run to the about straight ahead, then arc your turn so you end up in front of the hill.
8) Lightning Reflexes should be run out at base of hill
9) Whirling Defences
10) Get to top of hill and press [X] to flip around.

11) Troll Unguent
12) Throw Dirt
13) Oath Shot (It's best to line these all up so that when the Troll Unguent finishes, the other two are in queue)

14) Symbol of Wrath/Mark of Pain
15) Troll Unguent
16) Whirling Defences

17) They should be dead at this point.

I think I got it down. The reason I use Dodge first is that I want to get away from the Edge of Extinction as much as possible, but let the Grawl keep up with me for when I get up the hill. They can be switched around if you really hate it that much.

The run is damned hard, but it's satisfying to see them all go down.

(Yes I finally did get Oath Shot, and I've been running the Grawl Genocide since then)
