Sweet guide. I remember back doing Ettin runs using guides like these. Ahh the good old days, now theres all these new skills that are making Prophecies monsters seem obsolete.

also. . .MUSE, nice choice!

Awesome band.

I dont even have a tactics skill and its req 12 lol

I'm currently farming this shield. I remember I helped a friend of me farming it (it isn't hard at all) and I think it might be usefull.

JC68 · Jan 08, 2007, 04:12 PM // 16:12

is it possible to make that -2/-2 shield or can you only get it by drop in Factions/Prophecies? because i tried to make that one, but as far as -2/stance & -2/ench are both inscriptions and i can put only one insc. into shield i don´t know how to make it (because only handles i found are for health)
so, any idea?

You can't make -2/-2, you'll have to get it in Prophecies/Factions, and I'm not 100% sure they still do drop.

Changed my build to: Dragon Slash, Galrath Slash, Standing Slash, Sun and Moon Slash SV, AV, PR, Sprint.
16 sword, 9 str, 10 illu, 6 insp. leaving 0 points.

I think it's faster then my previous axe build :P
Takes 10 adrenaline at start, but when dslash is loaded, you can start spamming

Equites · Jan 08, 2007, 11:22 PM // 23:22

@ Deluxe

Have you tried dropping sun/moon and pr and replacing with dolyak and flail. I really think an IAS would help cut through the massive smite swarms

. Though attributes will get tight with raising strength for dolyak... If it does work tho, you'd be swinging 33% faster with a +43 dmg attack every other attack once dslash charges. Put on furious and have a party. Every time we have favor, its time for me to go to bed, very disappointing, so I'll have to wait for the weekend

.

On another note, does anyone know if the -2/-2 shields still drop? If anyone has one for sale pm me @ Natalia Entreri.

To the original poster, thank you taking the time to make a comprehensive guide and for sharing.*big thumbs up*
I have been playing around with this build also and have found that many different combos work, so it's just a matter of finding what you like best.
I'm even using Glads, as i havent got around to buying Knights or Sentinals yet.

Once agains great post man,soo glad to have my Warrior back in business.
Might have to change my avatar

Well gang, it seems like the fun is over. while clearing the chamber, 1 aataxe doesn't break aggro anymore(after speed buff). guess it's back to running straight to the smites.

no, thats just the patrolling aatxe, he's a bit harder to lose. just wait till he's gone.

Yeah I saw that guy when soloing with my ele. I had to run around in circles in the chamber while i waited for him to break agro.

If you time it properly, it doesn't happen.
If he does come down with the graspers, just run to the back cliff and hide behind the ghost, while still killing the graspers.
Once you've knocked them off run back up the stairs, no sprint, then when hes caught up to you, hit sprint and run back down to chamber, he will resume his patrol.

Whats the best elite for this build then?

dont feel no pain · Jan 09, 2007, 07:05 PM // 19:05

well i se either cleave or quivering blade .... low adrenaline cost high dmg skills are nice

Well, i'd say Dragon Slash. takes 10 hits to load up, after that i unleash Galrath, Standing, Sun&Moon, 3 normal hits and Dragon is recharged again.

has anyone tried bringing heroes to clear the darkness? does it helps later on

Mesmer in Need · Jan 10, 2007, 05:19 AM // 05:19

this build works great. the only problem is the coldfires. i just got to the smites for the first time, and i dont want to disturb the coldfires, and i dont know their patrols. what do i do?

Those were the good old days.....spending hours, if not days in Riverside.

I like the build, but don't have factions so im screwed....BUT I did find a cheat code that makes you invincible.
Here it is: UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, A, B, A, START
