Hope you guys like it. For the build etc look at this site:
http://pvx.wikia.com/wiki/Build:W/E_UW_Solo_DSway
And for a video of the run look here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqJrml8hSIc
A run takes 10min.

Edit:
The build in gurucode made by MisterB for the other information look at above site's:
[build prof=W/E name="W/E UW Solo DSway" Strength=12+1+3 Fire=12 Tactics=3 desc="Insightful Seize the Day{br}staff recommended for +30 energy{br}Knight's Insignia on armor"][Bonetti's Defense][Dolyak Signet][Defy Pain][Wary Stance][Meteor Shower][Lava Font][Bed of Coals][Enraging Charge][/build]

Posted in gwbbcode. Does "DSWay" stand for [[Dolyak Signet], or what? I'm not a great fan of warriors with staffs, but if it works for you, go for it.

Yes Dolyak Signet since all the uw solo build for warriors got it^^. Owh and it can be tranlated as Death Sligher Way. Which is my main.

Grasps are a bit slow, thats the longest part of the run, the smites are just stupidly easy

To speed up graspings you can use a sword/axe + shield to get more attackspeed and more adrenaline which makes that you can spam 1 4 7 more. You can also buy a other armor piece just for the Graspings with +3tactic next to the +3strength so that you get skill4 of 3sec instead of 2sec.

So I went out and tried this build of over and over yesterday just to see how it worked in practise. The concept itself is amazing. Works like a charm. However a few things I want to point out in hopes that it makes your run more efficient.

I replaced WARY STANCE with Tryptophan Signet.

I felt having Bonetti's and Wary Stance was a lil redundant and by adding Tryptophan Signet I now have a 20sec snare (my ebon rank is max) in case anything scatters. Scattering does happen from time to time as I have noticed.

Also to speed up the killing of graspings you can bring a scythe to fuel Bonetti's more often which in turn acts as emanagement and a cover for your Lava Font spamming. The more you can cover Lava Font the more often you can spam it. After numerous runs I found it more efficient to use a scythe in place of Wary Stance to fuel my adrenaline thus freeing up a slot which I promptly added Tryptophan Signet to the mix.

These are just minor changes I made to adapt to my play style. The build you have listed is fine as is but hopefully my adaptation will be of use to someone.

If you remove Wary Stance you will be interupted by the graspings how do you handle those interupts. Bonneti defence doesnt prefend interupts for spells of 2sec.

Ya I know......using Bonetti's can be hit or miss at times and it doesn't guarantee you won't get interupted. If you're not comfortable with not having Wary then it's just as good to leave it in.
