Default W/N Troll farming.

Just thought it would be a fun change for people, not sure about how fast it is etc, but I wanted to try something new
So, Armor preference, as is Helm but attributes go something like this:
16 Axe
11+1 Tactics
6 Death Magic
Rest in strength+1
Best Absorption + vigor possible

Cyclone Axe
Penetrating Blow
Executioners
Shield Stance
*Tainted Flesh* {E}
Bonettis
Watch Yourself/sprint
Heal Sig.

Pretty easy to figure it out. The trolls die about the same time, except of course the one you're attacking. I'll try to post some screenies if my comp isn't screwed up :\

cyclone axe +
mark of pain
For 30 seconds, whenever target foe takes physical damage, Mark of Pain deals 10...34 shadow damage to adjacent foes.

that could bump up the dmg nicely only a theory thogu never tried it

I farm with mark of pain and they don't run IF you slap mark of pain on one and then target another...when you cyclone every 5 seconds it's nice to see all that damage pop up. You can also use rotting flesh instead of tainted flesh...this way you save your elite =).

Just keep in mind that Rotting Flesh costs 15e. But rotting flesh has a longer duration then Tainted Flesh. If you are looking for a different way to do AoE damage Sliver Armor may also work nicely =). We all know just how effective it is when fighting those dragons with Sliver Armor on...warrior meleing them = nearly instant death =(.

What is this Sliver Armor you speak of? I bought my Tyrian Warrior Canthan Armor from Kaineng City. [1.5k armor I thought was the best of the best]

Unless you've got a Canthan form of Obsidian Armor in existence.

Sliver Armor is an Elementalist Skill. Works something like Glads Defense but much more deadly. Every attack/attempted attack on you = XX DMG to nearest foe. You also have a chance to block attacks, the higher the attribute the higher % of blocks. Just go to Raisu Palace and attack one of the elementalist dragons. You'll soon see just how deadly that skill is.

http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Sliver_Armor

Ok, as far as I can tell, how the hell can THIS junky ass skill be better than Gladiator's Defense? Aside from it not being elite.

As a warrior, you can only get 12 earth magic [and at that point, you have no healing / support skills]

@ 12 magic, it lasts 10s. [glad's def is 11 @ 16 tactics], it has a 45% chance to block [glad's is 75% always], it hits the same foe over and over again [nearest foe] for 29 dmg [glad's is 31 to every foe that hits you]

I think the only reason Sliver Armor is worth keeping is that it will always deal damage hit or miss and it affects spells too. But at 10e. your warrior must be crazy on the energy shyte...

Now if you were to combine it with Glad's Def, and Both Ripostes at 16 Tactics and 10 Earth Magic, hey, now we're talking, but I dont' see Sliver Armor worth much by itself. Heck, Bonetti's Defense is better in my opinion...

sliver armor is for mainy spiking an enemy. yes by iteslf it isn't all that great but throw in Glads and you'll see all those numbers pop up =). I myself wouldn't use it with my warrior but it could be a fun thing to do.

I use a similar ViM build but I use W/Me and epidemic. I have a couple of variations but I will usually just use sever and then epidemic the whole lot then use ViM as needed.

Nice post

I have a build that'll do trolls AND minos of elona reach in around a minute with w/n.. it only uses prophecies and core set skills. It uses the ever amazing spiteful spirit skill .

Req equipment-
Glad's armor for energy, totem axe is optional, i can do without. Use ascalon helm, for absorbtion.
No runes or other items are required.

Curses-10
Strength-10
Tactics-11

Skills go-

1.Dolyak Signet
2.Disceplined Stance
3.Spiteful Spirit {E}
4.Cyclone Axe
5.Bonetti's defense
6.Shield Stance
7.Defensive Stance
8.Healing Signet

Usage: Agro the trolls or minos and have them group around you. Activate dolyak signet, disciplined stance and SS. Wait till disciplined stance begins to wind down then use cyclone and bonneti's. This will recharge your energy. Cast SS again, as it should just about recharged. Shield stance must be activated instantly afterwards, since bonetti's ends if you use a skill. then use heal, dolyak signet when its done recharging, heal, then SS again. They should be almost done, and you can either activate cyclone and bonetti's again or defensive. This is basically the skills from left to right, then another stance to let them die. If you dont think it'll work, or can't get the hang of it, pm me in game and ill give you a hand (D A D D) <-- My war
