Exclamation uw farming

i hope im writing in the right spot cause im new of this forum and just realized how to read the the old posts, btw i havent played for a while and coming back i realized that many of the professions completely changed their use (eg ursan war dissappeared^, so now war suck and mes/ele/necros rock lol)
so i farmed for a few days(before quitting gw for a while) with the perma sin and really liked its profits and its times, but now i noticed the run quite sucks.

I got an ele and a sin with whome i could farm( even war but dont like farming with that 1) and id like to know wich 1 is better for uw, for times and for usage( cause the new perma build quite sucks).
if u can id like u to post even in game the ele build that is used in uw, and if the burning speed is the only1 we can still use now.

if i wrote anthing wrong or didnt explain something just post lol .
my ign is ill kaesar ill, ill be in game from saturday on.
hope to hear u soon
(o.O an idiot reported me for spamming when no1 was in outpost lol)

And warriors suck how? Last I checked they could farm smites easier solo than other professions, whether it be the w/me or w/rt farming builds. As for perma sins farming uw, check past updates. They added more health and changed to ranged attacks for the mindblades and mildly nerfed Shadow Form. I can't speak for eles here as I haven't tried mine there yet. Warrior is possibly fastest, but everyone does things different.

the new perma is ok if you can do it right. Eles are better if you like to group farm UW (speedclears), but require cons to work. if you want to solo, be a sin.

A/E = If you want to farm without using cons.

E/A = You'll need cons to keep SF up

Warrior = Can still do Smites like before


Unless I have an assassin with high titles, My pick would be W/Rt VwK farmer. Up to you on what to use, also somewhere on guru I saw a R/N Toucher build to farm UW with, you might wanna search that up.

The toucher is a bit sketchy, VwK Warrior is probably still the best bet. Sin can solo smites but it's slow. On the other hand, the Sin can kill Aataxes.

smites = fail.
use your sin/ele to speed clear.
get ectos + end chest... voltaic spear, eternal blade, etc

I thought W/Me was faster then W/Rt but havent tried so cant be sure. Also nowadays UW SC use about equal numbers of A/E and E/A due to the essence nerf. Assassins are less likely to fail due to more leeway time, and they are only slightly slower due to about 2 seconds less on sliver armor.

However, there is also several team based UW Farms using a tank of some sort (Usually 55, or permaform) and an SS. 600/smite works quite nicely as well.

UW is dead.
Farm Tombs, 550Ecto and 400K in 3 Weeks doesnt lie.
Shadow Form has died and now people are not going to do UW because it takes an extra 10Mins to clear, even after it used to take a trapper team around an Hour to clear smites. Gogo Guild Wars Community!
