Default best farming build

whats your favorit build and place for farming and why?

my own favorit build must be the solo trapper in UW. becouse that its one of of the few places for my main player to farm. exept if i wanted to farm destroyer cores ofc.

well, to answer the topic, the best farming build is probably a bot :-)
having said that, I obviously don't use the best builds.. I used to like the solo assassin/ele and ele/assassin though..

i like my 330 hp rit, farming naga and kappa on shing jea island in hard mode.
But its still farming and still boring, so i only do it when i really need money for something.

I used to be really fond of the 55 necro, farmed minotaurs until they introduced loot scaling (bleh), now I'm using the W/Rt UW Solo and the Rt/Me Echo VwK to farm Halcyon Job.

Prenerf griffon farming in the desert back in Phrophecies times was a ton of fun. Used to do it for hours on end every day. Then when it was nerfed, I just started farming those earth elementals in the desert with my own build (nobody else was doing it/I never released my build, so that one stayed good for a while).
Since I got my FoW last year, I haven't really farmed much. With loot scaling it will never be as effective, and I already have more then enough money.

my favorite is certainly the 55 necro - you can farm so many places and so quickly with it, and necros as a whole are easily adaptable for farming many different places.... is it the best? probably not. do i love it? hell yes.

build: Terratank
Where: I tell myself everywhere

I just like how versitile it is. It comes with simple spell immunity and damage reduction and you can easily slightly change your build to include almost anything else you need.

There are some downfalls
many

but its much easier to me than N/mo 55 which was my favorite

Personal favorite thus far is Perma-Shadow. Chest running, soloing (a lot more areas than people give it credit for), I just love to use it. Plus, it is/was a more unique build intended to do different things.

It's fun to head to UW and just mass aggro as much as you possibly can. Taken screenies with at least 20 enemies just chopping away =P.

trapping used to be my favorite, but since EW got nerfed itwill never be the same again.. FoW forest with ranger is pretty fun, get some shards every time.
