...i just quoted what is on my armor now (elite charr has tactics which stack).
I'm gonna try this out in a minute, as ~7 runs of 2k in an hour sounds good to me. Just a little more about your runes...

The Tactics+1 on your charr hide helmet IS stacking, since it is part of the helmet. The Superior Tactics rune on your helmet is NON-stacking, as is the minor tactics rune on your boots. Only one non-stacking modifier works at a time. Ditch the minor tactics rune and add a clarity rune instead to reduce blind (or even attunement, since you love energy).
Also, might want to put sup absorption in place of the minor

The build sounds worth a try though, thanks!

Nice discovery and thanks for sharing The drops are rather decent

Bo staffs drop here too, as well as Crude shields (yeah!) and reinforced defenders. Others I don't remember though.

I made a couple of changes when I tried

both riposte
Glad Defence
Heal sig
Consume corpse/Necrotic
Dwarven Stability
Brawling Headbutt --> "On Your Knees!" (recharge Glad Defence)

I've been farming this for quite some time, both N/Mo and W/N.

Gotten quite a few good Serpent Axes, Katanas, Dadao Swords, etc.

I typically run;

Glad's Def
Bonetti's Def
Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Dolyak Signet
Endure Pain
Heal Signet
Necrotic traversal

Typically run 16 Tactics and 13 strength

N/Mo is pretty much standard 55. Spoil Victor and Necrosis for dmg, and Necrotic Traversal to hop over the gate.

Fix those Runes, the Sup and Minor Tactics don't stack. Ditch the Minor Tac and stick a Sup Abs in the chest.
Drop the Radiants for Knights and take a Zealous weapon if you need the energy.

I think it's a nice, solid run that will net you some quick cash without much hassle. You don't need optimal gear, you can just take your warrior there and do it - it reminds me Dont Feel No Pain's hydra riposte farmer which got me to see for the first time 100k in my stash. You won't become the richest guy in GW with it, but you will be able to get cash for your skill hunter title/15k armor/etc etc

Template codes for the lazy ones (like me):

Dwarven Stability variant: [build=OQQTEZ6UZSvYwgwguIAIt4uMMAA]

Bonnetti's variant (no pve skills no ranks needed no problem) : [build=OQQTEZ6U5QvDmw0NAplvhBA]
gl farming.

i've gotten a 1-from-max r7 here, so i'd say max r8 do drop here.

I do it because its relaxing and since i don't need a lot of cash anyway, drops are starting to diminish for me now though.

In these riposte builds, don't forget to bring a +1 20% tactic shield When it triggers, i get a 12 second glads defense (x2 thx to dwarven stability)

One would figure that you can get Elite Necromancer Tomes from the end boss.
