Curse

I have a W/Mo for two purposes: Running, and Farming.

I've been farming Tengu, Minotaurs, Trolls and Griffons for quite some time now, and have been very successfuly using:

Bonetti's
Cyclone Axe
Healing Breeze
Healing Hands
Vig. Spirit
Live Vicariously
Zealot's Fire
Mending

I'm sure most W/Mo's use the same build.

However, I've never tried to solo UW, and I doubt this build would work. Has anyone else every successfully farmed UW with a W/Mo? If so, could you provide any suggestions, or even post your build??

Thanks

No, here's a few reasons:

Riposte
Distracting Blow
Bleeding
Rend Enchantments
Shield of Judgement

That and the Ataxes hit too bloody hard.

The bulls will mess you up. You'll need prot spirit somewhere in there to make their 200+ hp attacks lowered to 40-50 hp. Also requires points in protection which you have no room for with a warrior.

W/N might work, using enfeebling blood with a heavy axe and life transfer, unholy feast for heatlth

enfeebling blood would drasticly take there damage down, espically if you already had high armor.

Yeah, I've had my warriorfor 5 months now. (I've had game since release) I can farm griffons, trolls, tengu and well.. all those things. I always wanted a UW build also though. If someone has one and doesn't wanna tell it to everyone and thier mama, PST IGN - Soaring Warrior.

Something I've wanted to try, but have been too busy to attempt it.

The recent buff to three skills in particular: Riposte, Deadly Riposte, and Dolyak Signet. I would always venture down into the UW with those three. Problem was, the only reason I would die against an aatxe was because of Riposte and Deadly Riposte. The reason being I could never get enough hits in for another bonettis and you'll get hit by those two more often than their attacks when you run three stances.

I go in with a +7 vs. physical pommel, Dolyak Signet and Watch Yourself. No fooling, hit me for 19 damage. Deadly Riposte, 47 and bleeding. Thus what I've wanted to do is bring down two weapon sets, a sword and shield, and a wand and shield. Use the wand to build up adrenaline for Watch Yourself and Riposte, switch to sword and put up Riposte and Deadly Riposte. At 16 tactics, I believe you're looking at 110+ damage. Meanwhile, the aatxe is hitting you for a fraction of that.

When you get to the smites, Dolyak Signet again will prevent the knockdown. Don't use Deadly Riposte. The smites will merely cast Mend Condition, heal all the damage you dealt with it, and trigger their Zealot's Fire.

And you can easily farm aatxes as a w/n. Deadly Riposte, Gladiators Defense, and Enfeebling Blood. Don't attack, just block and slowly kill them.

How, exactly? The 17% per cast would kill you, that and all the attacks that slip through Gladiators Defense. and the recast time on Gladiators Defense is 30, what do you do for the 18 some seconds its recharging?
And have you had a chance to test your Dolyak method yet?
