Curse

#1 of the most famous farming places is without doubt the Mountain Trolls outside Droknars Forge. Because I was getting bored and my favourite character is the Warrior I decided to try several builds with all the different secondary professions in the Prophecies campaign. This is what I did.

W/X

Attribute Points:
Strength: 9 (8+1)
Swordmanship: 11 (10+1)
Tactics: 15 (12+3)

Skills:

Sever Artery
Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Gladiator's Defense {E}
Bonetti's Defense
Distracting Blow
Dolyak Signet
Healing Signet

Step 1: Run to the cave and avoid the Avicara. When you walk into the cave and lure the Trolls. Now cast Dolyak Signet en use your Riposites. Only cast healing signet while using Bonetti's Defense or Gladiator's Defense.

Step 2: Now you can take the left or the right way. You'll face Krogg Smush or Whuump Buumbul. Krogg Smush: Kill him using your Ripostes, he'll die fast.

Step 3: Whuup Buumbuul Use Distracting Blow for his Troll Unguent and your Ripostes.

W/R

Attribute Points:
Strength: 7 (6+1)
Axe Mastery (8+1)
Tactics: 14 (11+3)
Beast Mastery: 7
Wilderniss Survival: 7

Skills:

Cyclone Axe
Apply Poison
Victory is Mine! {E}
Bonetti's Defense
Distracting Blow
Edge of Extincion
Dolyak Signet
Healing Signet

Step 1: Make your way to the cave avoiding the Avicara. When you are in front of the huge group of trolls cast Edge of Extincion and run forward. Use Apply Poison and use Cyclone Axe to let all of them suffer. Use Victory is Mine! when you're low on health.

Step 2: Krogg Smush Cast EoE before going into battle so the other trolls will hurt him while dying. Make sure his health is below 90%.

Step 3: Whuup Buumbuul Use distracting blow for his Troll Unguent and kill him.

W/Mo

Skills:

Sever Artery
Rotting Flesh
Victory is Mine! {E}
Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Distracting Blow
Dolyak Signet
Healing Signet

Step 1: Cast Rotting Flesh before going into battle. Use Victory is Mine! when you're low on health.

Deadly Riposte
Dolyak Signet
Physical Resistance
Healing Signet

Step 1: Lure the group, use Sever Artery followed by Epidemic and use Victory is Mine! when you're low on health

Step 2: Krogg Smush Just kill him. He should not be any problem.

Step 3: Whuup Wuumbuul You don't have Distracting Blow now so this might take a little bit longer. Don't worry, you will kill him after a while.

W/E

Attribute Points:
Strength: 7 (6+1)
Swordmanship: 8 (7+1)
Tactics: 14 (11+3)
Earth Magic: 8

Skills:

Skillbar 1: Contains Faction skills

Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Gladiator's Defense {E}
Bonetti's Defense
Sliver Armor
Armor of Earth
Dolyak Signet
Healing Signet

Skillbar 2: Without Faction skills

Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Gladiator's Defense {E}
Bonetti's Defense
Ward Against Melee
Armor of Earth
Dolyak Signet
Healing Signet

Step 1: Make sure Armor of Earth and Dolyak signet are always on. You will take 0 - 3 dmg now. Use Sliver Armor when available.

Step 2: Krogg Smush Easy. Just take him out using Sliver Armor and your Ripostes.

Step 3: Whuup Buumbuul Again, you don't have Distracting Blow here but it should not be a problem to take him out using the same tactics as I discriped above.

Good luck!

Well..maybe i'll try to make a W/A and a W/Rit build but its OK for now I think

I hope you guys enjoyed my guide and you'll kill allot of trolls during your time spend on GW.

Nice compact guide..too bad I got no warrior anymore.

Alexi Jotun · Sep 04, 2006, 02:21 AM // 02:21

Doesn't it seem kind of redundant to have sever artery AND deadly riposte, as they both cause bleeding? Something like gash would add extra damge and conditions to already bleeding foes.

This is probably the most eye-candy I've ever seen for a troll farming guide =/

Very helpful for beginners, I would suppose.

Very nice, but I like this axe build:

Cyclone Axe
Whirlwind
On Your Knees!
Gladiator's Defense
Bonetti's Defense
Healing Signet
Armor of Earth
Sprint

16 in Tactics
Rest in Air, Earth

A Zealous Mod is a must.

Okay I have all the spells you listed for W/N and this is the 3 build ive tried farming trolls with and I have failed again. I always get these damn trolls to half health before I die. I use rotting flesh and spam riposte / deadly riposte and use my signet when I need to heal myself and then I use victory is mine to regain health but I still die.

I have 510 or 520 hp with a +30 vigor rune and I am wearing full 1.5k plate with 3 dmg abosrb runes and the ones you listed there and I also am using a fiery dragon sword 15-22 dmg 20% dmg increase.

I've also never really farmed this way by gathering all these mobs so im new to it but I dont think its that hard..any help please?

I use a +5 armor mod for my sword. The W/N build is one of the hardest so you just need to practise. Try to lure a part of the group; sometimes they split up in 2 groups and that should be much easier. Also make sure that all the trolls are infected with Disease so ViM! has his maximum effect. Otherwise, try one of the other builds

the W/E is one of the easiest. Good luck!

PS: Maybe I can help u when i'm on-line.

Valosh · Sep 04, 2006, 02:30 PM // 14:30

I guess my guy only has 510 hp with a minor vigor enchant, would getting a +3 tactics be worth the -75 hp since my guy doesnt have a major vigor rune? Because at the moment these trolls hit me very very hard..i think they hit for about 20 dmg.

Witte Was · Sep 04, 2006, 04:28 PM // 16:28

I've Gladiator armor which means I've 80+20 armor vs Physical. U've 90 vs Physical if i'm right..I also have a shield with -2dmg while in a stance. I only have a helm with + 1 tactics and a major tactics rune on it. So just buy a major rune and u should be OK. Make sure Dolyak Signet is always on.

By the way, I believe that Ward Against Melee and Glads Defense dont stack. I'm pretty sure Glads is block and Ward is evade.

Otehr than that, very nice guide

Perhaps you could get /Rt and /A too :P

I use Ward Against Melee when Gladiator's Defense runs out

I'll try to make a W/Rit and a W/A soon
