Default Any builds for vermin farming w/Ranger or Monk?

Does anyone have any good builds for farming vermin with a Ranger or Monk primary?

I searched but could only find builds for a Warrior and Ritualist.

Thanks for your attempt to help and for your smart remark about the search. But, next time, try reading. I specifically said Ranger or Monk primary and I tried searching but could only find builds for warrior and ritualist.

So, even though I specifically said that I found Warrior builds, you post another Warrior build? Thanks!

While i get the impression Dark Tykane didn't even read your post, i have to admit i agree that warrior seems the most effective way of farming the vermins.

I never played a ranger so i don't know for sure, but the barrage or trapping seems to be rather slow and cumbersome.

For the monk 55 and Spirit Bond won't help. Even using Frenzy and no armor the vermins don't do enough damage to trigger Spirit Bond and the degen will be early death for any 55.

I tried to just do a M/K and test the usual warrior build. With some modifications you can kill the first groups. I didn't test too much but i guess Shreader will give you a hard time.

Healing 10 + 3 + 1
Axe 11
Tactics 10

Cyclone Axe
Triple Chop
"Watch Yourself"
Balanced Stance
Vigorous Spirit
Healing Breeze
Live Vicariously
Balthazar's Spirit

As you can't use Dolyak, Balanced is to stay on your feet. "Watch Yourself" for Armor. Balthazar's is the energy management skill, which is much better here than Bonetti's (i use Balthazar's on my warrior as well), especially as Bonetti's would cancel Balanced. The most dangerous is time is when Balanced has run out, as nothing prevents knockdowns. At 14 Healing Prayers Healing Breeze gives 9 regen what leaves you at 2 when poison and bleeding are applied.

For equip Jacqui's Aegis is great and about any max axe will do.

None the less this is nothing i would do on a regular basis. It was more testing an idea. The big advantage of the warrior is that he simply won't take any damage besides the degen (about 155 armor with dolyak) and can do much more damage. The warrior would just take all vermins in the dark area at once killing them all together, what makes him much faster.

don't abbreviate in ways that have multiple meanings and expect people to know what you are talking about.

and no i didnt bother to read you post because all these posts seem the same to me

Is "fag" the best you can come up with?

I get it. It's my fault that you can't read. I'm the "fag" because you post based on the subject instead of the actual question.

Maybe if you stopped and used your brain for a bit, you might be able to figure out that it meant "with". Why would I spell out Ranger and Monk, but abbreviate Warrior?

Common sense FTW!

Well....Vermin are just plain vermin.

Vermin are monsters. They seem to have pretty decent drops.

Vermin farming would be like hydra farming. Only for vermin.
