Default Heaven's Avenger

THIS IS A TROLL FARMER!!!!! trolls in the troll cave outside of droks.. in talus chute........
This is a build i've been working on for a few months... It works rather well, but 1 thing is.... please please please!! i recommend this ONLY to experienced warrior users..this is degeneration build.. i know it doesnt sound good as a degen build, but i assure u.. use this right and ur HP will not go below 490.


Profession:
[Warrior/Monk]

Name:
[Heaven's Avenger]

Type:
[PvE]

Category:
[Degeneration Farmer]

Attributes:

Healing Prayers:10
Swordsmanship:8+[2 major swordsmanship rune]
Tactics:12
||Note* u will have 5 left over attributes, use em wherever u want. but make sure u use a sword for this build.||

Skill Bar Set-up:

Deadly Riposte[Tactics]
Riposte[Tactics]
Vigorous spirit[Healing prayers]
Mending[Healing prayers]
Bonetti's defense[Tactics]
Gladiator's Defense *Elite*[Tactics]
Live Vicarously[Healing prayers]
Essence Bond[No attribute]


Equip:

For this particular build...i would say a max damage sword [15-22][req XX]
For this build i use Sskai's sword[Canthan green sword]. And! any drok's armour.. for this build i use knight's armour from drok's armourers.
and a

crimson carapace shield[from collectors]:

armor:16 [Req9 tactics]
+45 hp [while in a stance]
-2 recieved damage[while in a stance]

method:

This Build is for massive Healing, with defense and massive damage. This build only relies on its regular strike attacks because it needs adrenaline.

Steps:::
1.Walk outside of droks to talus chute
2.once outside, cast mending and wait for ur mana to hit 20 and then cast essence bond.
**note** this will cause u to have 0 mana regeneration...also.. u have to abandon every single quest that u have picked up from droknar's forge.

3. becuase of no mana regen, u will have to quickly make ur way to the cave about northwest from the gates to droks.
**note** watch ur aggro range and if u do get hit..just keep running.. in some ways geting hit is an advantage because it will increase ur mana by 1 everytime, due to "essence bond"

4.once at the cave, it doesnt matter how many trolls u take on, it all falls down on ur timing, by now.. the only skills that u shud have equipped are "Mending, and Essence Bond", once uve aggroed the trolls,quickly pick a target and commence hitting it,after that quickly cast "live vicarously before they get to u, few seconds late is fine."

5: after live vicarously, quickly cast Vigorous spirit, this only takes about half a second to cast, this shud heal u +15+12 per hit, due to live vicarously and vig spirit, and also mending at +3 per second, u shud be fine.

6: cast bonetti's defense to get up on mana stock, then quickly use Deadly riposte, riposte, and gladiator's defense, this WILL do a lot of damage

7: deadly riposte and Riposte will be doing 63 and 21 seconds of bleeding and 68 dmg.

8:keep an eye on ur gladiator's defense timer up at the top left, when it begins to flas make sure u have bonetti's defense ready to take over, this prevents damage from getting to u.

9:wehn vig spirit begins to flash recast quickly and follow up with a stance [EI: bonetti's defense or Glad's defense] depending on which is available.

10: cycle through, deadly riposte, glad's defense, riposte, bonetti's defense and vig spirit because these skills will wear off. Make sure then wen ur mana reaches 5. make sure to use bonetti's defense to raise ur mana back to 19, make sure u use no skills after using bonetti's defense because this is a stance in which u cannot use other skills or else it will wear off.

11:riposte, deadly riposte, glad's defense wenever u can, make sure they are all activated at the same time. vig spirit wen it wears off and bonetti's defense wen glad's defense wears off OR wen low in mana.

these steps shud be fine wen fighting trolls i assure u..this build is for experienced warrior users only.Enjoy!


PS: please if u have ne modifications please comment.

At the very least, switch out Essence Bond for Balthazar's Spirit. Also, don't expect many responses, as everyone on this site knows every Troll Farming build in the book.

Hey, there may be a ton of other builds to farm trolls with every possible class in order to make small amounts of money off of white items and Mountain Troll Tusks, but they don't have names that are as kool as Heaven's Avenger, do they? =P

j/k, but in all serious I agree that you should swap Essence Bond out with Balth Spirit and put any extra attributes in Smiting Prayers for faster adrenaline recharge.

You have no sword skills so why not max tactics instead of points into sword? Leave it at like 3 (2+1 rune) and go get a 10-14 sword from the Ascalon area to use.

Riposte: 12 = 68, 16 = 84
Deadly Riposte: 12 = 63/21, 16 = 79/28 (damage/bleeding duration)
Glads defense: 12 = 10/29, 16 = 11/37 (duration/damage)

Note that a "while enchanted" tactics shield also works - better maybe since the enchantments are always up and you may be between stances.

You know what would impress me? Doing it with 5 Superior runes and no secondary skills. That would be impressive...because I've not seen anyone but me do that. So far, 3 of the skills in my build are in yours.

Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Gladiators Defense

And the point of doing this would be what exactly? Troll farming isn't exactly considered hard, especially compared to most solo farming, so I'm not sure I see how this could be that impressive, even if you were to buy a bunch of superior runes and use no secondary skills.

Solo UW with all war skills, 5 sup runes, then come back and talk ~.^

Try it. It's not easy. One disrupting chop hits and you're done.

FOW spiders, no problem...UW...that's a whole other can of worms.

Troll farming builds are no longer rated by how well they work. They're rated by how fast they do the job.

What's the exact timing on this build?

Glad's Defence builds have been 'outdated' because Triple Chop builds are much faster. Just take the following:

Triple Chop
Cyclone Axe
Bonnetie's Defence
Sprint
Live Vicariously
Mending
Vigorous Spirit
Rebirth if you're power leveling, otherwise pick another attack skill.

Um, sorry to burst your bubble, but this has been going on for ages.

Why would a warrior wear 5 sup runes and not use any secondary skills (i.e. Protective Spirit)? That's about the most pointless thing you could waste your time on.

Better yet, try doing it with no skills, weapons, or armor. Then you're ub3r 1337... o_O

Farming builds need to be as efficient as possible. No other criterion matters.

I'm not sure what the time on the triple chop builds are, but I personally like the W/E whirlwind+OYK builds.

Explain to me why it's bad? I've had no problems. I'm a Warrior...I don't have the time to cast spells. Any farming you W/Mo's do, I can do with just W skills. And I kill faster. I don't have to waste points on secondary skills. Trolls, Hydra's, Vermin, Ghial, Spiders. No problems.

Even in PvE, monks are like "you wha? How many? Your crazy"...to which i say.."Did you have any problems keeping me alive?" "Umm..no, no we didn't."

The fix to The Real Roy Keane's build wasn't to put in mending, but simply to replace Glad's Def with Triple Chop. Also, unless you put Judge's Insight in the last slot, an elemental weapon works better than a vamp weapon. On a build with such massive healing from LV+VS, mending is just simply wasted space, energy, and time.
