Dolyak -> Berserkers Stance -> Disrupting Chop -> Glad's Defense -> Dismember...then hack 'til they die...if i get enough damage so they try to use heal sig before Berserkers runs out, i can kill an ettin in around 30 seconds...

Warrior/Monk
Level 20

Strength: 10
Axe Mastery: 12
Healing Prayers: 8

- Eviscerate [Elite] (Axe Mastery)
If Eviscerate hits, you strike for +34 damage and inflict a Deep Wound, lowering your target's maximum Health by 20% for 17 seconds.
Adrenaline:7

- Executioner's Strike (Axe Mastery)
If this attack hits, you strike for +34 damage.
Adrenaline:8

- Disrupting Chop (Axe Mastery)
If it hits, this attack interrupts the target's current action. If that action was a skill, that skill is disabled for an additional 20 seconds.
Adrenaline:6

- Berserker Stance (Strength)
For 9 seconds, you attack 33% faster and gain 20% more adrenaline each time you hit in melee. Berserker Stance ends if you use a skill.
Energy:5 Cast:0 Recharge:30

- Frenzy (Warrior other)
For 8 seconds, you attack 33% faster but take double damage.
Energy:5 Cast:0 Recharge:4

- Dolyak Signet (Strength)
For 16 seconds, you have +30 armor and cannot be knocked down, but your movement is slowed by 75%.
Energy:0 Cast:0 Recharge:20

- Mend Ailment (Protection Prayers)
Remove one Condition (Poison, Disease, Blindness, Dazed, Bleeding, Crippled, or Deep Wound) from target ally. That ally is healed for 5 points for each remaining Condition.
Energy:5 Cast:0.75 Recharge:2

- Live Vicariously (Healing Prayers)
While you maintain this Enchantment, whenever target ally hits a foe, you gain 8 Health.
Energy:5 Cast:2 Recharge:0

***
You startout by casting Live Vicariously on yourself. As you can see you have Berserker's Stance and Frenzy, both these skills will allow you to charge-up your Eviscerate and Executioner's Strike faster. You have Dolyak Signet to make up for the double damage you'd receive while you have Frenzy active. You got Disrupting Chop to cancel out their Healing Signet. Since you're hacking away at them really fast you actually have a really good HP regen of +8HP/slash! You have Mend Ailment just in case.

The area is actually Nebo Terrace tho you start in Beatletun. This is the best place to hunt for runes from Gypsie Ettins they are more concentrated here and in groups, so faster and safer farming.

You can repeatedly run through North Kryta killing Gypsie Ettins and switching between 3 areas, thus many conclude avoiding the anti-farm code (if it exists).

True dat.
My friend and I 2 manned this (w/mo and mo/w) for some much needed speeding up of the process, and it worked fantastically. SoJ FTW.
Thinking of expanding using panic and/or rust and/or scourge healing and/or diversion...

i solo ettins all the time and there is really no need for distrupting chop,if you time your galrath slash or whatever skill your using during his heal sig it will do more dmg,because of the -40 armor,i find it to be just as fast

Duke Slytalker · Dec 30, 2005, 06:08 AM // 06:08

i have done some ettin soloing in NKP and although my friends claim to get sup runes there all the time, the best i have ever gotten is major beast mastery.

any advice?
