Default N/Mo SV Solo Underworld Farming Questions

Hello all,
I am tired of farming Skyward Reach for hydras because of it's low profit, so I tried farming the Underworld.
I think I had a bug a couple of times when I went out of the circle at the beginning and all enchantments were ripped off me.
Also, do any of you know a good SV build for farming the Underworld?
Do you know what equipment should I use (including runes and insignias)?
Can I farm FoW with the same build?

Please specify the things I need to have in order to farm the Underworld properly.

Thank you all in advance,
Scourge Summoner

hmmm on guru and pvx wiki are many builds, so i would say check out the net, and you'll be ok.

best option for you at this moment is the W/RIT build, easy and safe and anyone can do it.

good luck

Dr. Flopolopogus that comment wasnt required, in fact i think your the noob. calling someone who asks a civilized question puts you lower than them.

Now about darknesses, im no pro at UW, but i found on the necro is to lure the darknesses and hide behind benton, then recast enchants. this is a risky way to solo, but i do not know of any others.

Any problems hit me up IGN - Concrete pete

Here is what happened. A Dying Nightmare popped up and used Rend Enchaments on you. That is why all your enchants were stripped.

So, you either want to duo it with a friend/guild member/hero or use a different build/character to solo it.

As much as people hate PvX Wiki it is a great place to start looking for builds.

Also, if you want to play a necro down in UW here are two of the best guides I have seen on Guru for a necro.

1) Art of the Under World. This guide will show you how to duo the entire UW with a necro and monk. Written by Cerb

2) The Big Necro Farming Guide. This guide will show you how to solo farm many different places with your necro. Written by Fuzzy Taco
Why this isn't a sticky I will never know.

Hope that helps.

Happy solo'ing

Krat

Thank you all for your help.
Although all the things you specified, I ask again.
Do any of you know a specific build I can use and can specify equipment?
Guild PVX doesn't have a build to solo the underworld. I tried the only one said to work there, but because of the dying nigtmares I can't do so.

I'll read the guides in order to learn about other techniques and places to farm, but I'm not sure it can help me with the underworld.
Also, I don't want to start a new character as a W/Rt at this time just to solo the Underworld.
I also have a Dervish, but I'm certain that they can't solo, especially not the underworld.

Thank you all for the quick replies,
Scourge Summoner

Again pvxwiki is your friend, there is the 105hp UW dervish build for soloing UW

The only people that cry about places like pvxwiki are those who want to try and look "leet" as soon as builds become popular 99% of the time they are put on pvx for others to try

Thanks all but I can't 3terra underworld.
I was expecting to find a solo solution for underworld farming, but it seems 55HP Necro can't do such a thing alone.
Altough, I found some fine builds for Dervish Underworld soloing, which I will try out as soon as possible.

So thank you all for your help, I'll carry on from here.

Have a nice day.

As Scourge is new to farming and im sure other new farmers will read this thread i`ll offer a bit of advice as ive noticed that hardly anyone ever states this.
Solo farming can be good but .....
it can have limitations on where you can farm.
Uw you see solo builds aplenty - w/rt an so on but what people neglect to add is often what you can farm and what areas you can access solo.
outside uw its easier to farm as often the whole zone you can go pretty much where you want to - But Uw is slightly different due to bohemoths who can block paths also which enemy can be killed and the area covered is small.
Most solo Uw farmers only farm grasps ( have to be cleared before you can get out of main chamber ) and smites - they are unable to either take heavy dmg ( aatxes,coldfires etc ) or unable to inflict enough dmg to compensate foes recovering.
I personally do solo farming in other areas of gw and do 2 man or 3 - 4 man farming in uw with friends so the whole of uw is accessable.
By doing teams you will also learn which foes are where , popups an so on .. and eventually if you do want to try solo you are more prepared.

Also if in a good team survival is a lot higher if 1 or more have res - solo you screw you lose 1k , if you read other posts you always see a lot of people saying "this build sucks and i wasted xx k " - often they try to take on foes they cant deal with or rush straight in.

pvxwiki is a good place to visit not only for getting builds but if your wanting to create your own build you can see builds already done and get ideas from them as well as armor/weapons setup

Thank you all. I think I've got all the help I needed.

I'll try to Solo the Underworld with my dervish and my necro.

Consider this topic locked.
