Hi all

I made a warrior today who i eventually plan to use for FoW farming, i'd just like some help with a few things now there have been updates etc and i dont know whats accurate anymore:

What armour do i buy? i've only ever played casters and rangers so i dont really understand how all the warrior armour works, like absorbtion etc, so if you could tell me the best pieces to buy i'd appreciate it.

Also, what secondary should i go with? in normal PvE i'll probably go pure warrior skills like with most my other primaries, but whats the best choice for FoW farming?

Edit: oh and sword, or axe?

Thanks alot

FoW Farmer needs W/Me, but you can change to secondary mesmer when you need to. Monk is a good bet to start off with. When farming in FoW, Gladiator armor is probably best, but any will do.

I Wear full Glads and ascalon helm when i farm them and i can still farm the spiders with out dieing. For weapon i prefer to use axe cuz i find that its quicker than the sword

Heres the build i use for FoW spider Farming

Skils

Cyclone axe
Executioners
I will Survive
Shields up
Watch yourself
Physical resistance
Sprint
Heal sig

Attributes

15 Axe ( 12 + sup axe )
11 Tactics ( 10 +minor tac )
9 strength ( 8 + Minor str )
5 Inspiration

Armor

since the way absorption works has changed to area rather than Global on the armor, i'd maybe suggest Dragons or Dreadnoughts for chest + legs, Glads for arms + boots, Ascalon for helm. ) but full glads with ascalon helm will still do the trick.

Equipment

Zealous +15% ( stance ) or 15%^50% axe
+45 / -2 stance shield - +60 / -2 hexed shield ( swith between the 2 depending on wot ur fighting. Personally i use a -2 stance / -3 hexed shield and that goes me proud

)

Hope this helps u out
