You get 6k from trolls per hour?

My wammo troll slayer gets -at least- 20k average there X.x, per hour yes.

It's been several months since the last time I went there for an hour but I think I got to a point where I'd get 32k average per hour.

But back then the scrolls didn't have a fixed price yet, they got nerfed when they became stackable so no more 1k identified gold scrolls anymore X.x
(tip: kill the bosses too, also try to lure the avicara into the cave to kill them too. Oh and aggro EVERYTHING at once. Those extra 10seconds spent getting that extra mob is 30 seconds saved killing that small mob... oh and if possible, get super str, weapon and tactics runes. The low hp is meaningless igf you have the right build and timing.)

When factions was released, I didn't have my copy yet so I tried getting survivor title on my warrior (nobody knew it was only for new chars) and well, after about 6 hours non-stop (I was bored ok?) I had so much gold, wood, parchment, steel, I could make huge amounts of cash, selling steel at 1.5k, parch at 100g each, I even found gold fellblades there, not to mention the black dyes.
All in all it would have been 80k per hour.

But on a normal day, way way back, I think it still would be 20k per hour, probably less.

I don't think trolls is any good anymore, maybe like the op said, 6k... but I doubt that it would be THAT bad nowadays.

Honestly, most of my "best" drops have come while just playing the game.
I guess the biggest was a 15^50 Req. 9 Zodiac Longbow which I sold for 100k. Some may call the elite missions farming, but I really enjoy them.

I did get a 15^50 req. 9 Fellblade from a chest while troll farming. I thought about selling it, even turned down 105k. I may just end up keeping it.

I made a nice chunk of change Xueako farming right after Factions came out, so you could consider that 100k+ if you happened to get 3 in an hour (you are lucky to sell them for 15k now, too easy a run!)

Pretty much the only farming I do are occasional troll/tengu and Ettin runs. You have a chance for nice runes either way and they are quick. I'll also do elite missions and some boss runs in Factions. I used to do ToPK a lot, but haven't been there for months.

@Don: I usually kill the Warrior boss on troll runs, but the ranger just takes me too darn long.

Yes, I chest run fow and uw at the same time everyday, and remodding to 15^50?? these mods are inherent man!I mean, if you're gonna lie..do it properly!

Well for me, the best I've ever done was 4 shards + req.8 14^50 chaos axe + 20/20 sundering bow string. which went for a total of like 160k or more..

It was from a spider run in fow btw.

Seraphim of Chaos · Aug 02, 2006, 07:14 AM // 07:14

Merchanting>Farming. I made roughly 140k- by merchanting Perfect Gold swords in an hour. I bought perfect zodiac for 100k+20 ecto and sold for 100k+40 ecto.

I'm still laughing at the "noob farming LA" thing!!

Mantra of Resolve
Blessed Signet
Essence Bond
Balthazar's Aura
Mending

The reason why I brought Mantra of Resolve was to prevent the Avicaras from interrupting me. I can pretty much kill the Braves, Wise but not the Guiles.

Also Osiris thank you for posting your build the first one that really did post his farmer. Call me a noob but where is vermin farming? Is that in prophecies or factions?

Ah - didn't realise you wanted the actual builds too :-)

I posted the build I use for Troll farming on the Necro thread last month:

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10005774

It's an incredibly forgiving and easy build to play.

Iceman2 · Aug 02, 2006, 10:28 AM // 10:28

the most i got was during a chest run.

picked up a req 8 divine 10/10 plat staff which sold for 100k+80 ectos

Dobermann · Aug 02, 2006, 11:46 AM // 11:46

Farmin bores me, i do it in 30-45minit chunks doing around a bout 2-4 runs a day, my best run was a 5 min run and i got 39k from a sup absorb from ettin.

Ecksor · Aug 02, 2006, 05:54 PM // 17:54

i got 13k, 986g in 5 mins by farming ToA.

Mines was during the 2nd week Factions came out. During my quest to Maatu's Keep, I noticed that a boss, Xuekao was alone and I planned to get my war to solo him. So I set up a riposte build. I noticed not a lot of ppl were farming him, so I assumed that I was one of the first ppl to do it. So anyways, since it wasn't mass-farmed, I got about one set of daggers every 3-4runs. In the end of the first hour i got 21 daggers and sold each for 15-20 plats very very quickly at KC.

when i said remodded to i was saying there over all stats of course you cant remod the dmg mods i simply added 20/20 sundering and +30 fort to them and it quintuples the price.

UW stuff (ectos, Storm Bows, ...) can drop from the monsters and chests around the Wailing Lord in FoW.

I also got 2 req 10 Chaos Axes (+15^50 and +15/-10, I believe) from one FoW run once.. That was probably my luckiest run.

Timmy Shinobi · Aug 04, 2006, 05:41 PM // 17:41

Man I didn't know you can remodify weapons

I once got a 15% always -5 energy but it has a shocking and hp+29 to it ended up selling it for 30k.
Well back to our topic, so far I've learned that I can farm trolls, vermins and ettins on my 55. I stopped farming trolls for now they all drop a troll tusks that I dont even know what for. So I average probably about 4-5k an hour

So guys please if you guys have any suggestions on areas I still dont know where to farm with my 55 please post where and your build. Thanks in advance.

Hang on 15k armor I'm almost there

mastab3690 · Aug 05, 2006, 02:23 AM // 02:23

Thank you mastab3690 but I did try soloing it but failed many time miserably. I read the builds here but for some reason I keep dying. I tried the one with the video with the sprint one, tried the basic one but i kept on being interrupted. Tried the mo/me for mantra of resolve but I could not get past the graspings and could not kill the smites. Tried the zealots build but they ran from me and ending up not having energy and die

So I scratched out UW farming.
What about you mastab? Where and what build you farm with?
I also have a R/Mo can a R/Mo solo UW? Or any other farming areas where a 55 can?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Happy farming!

kyro27 · Aug 05, 2006, 05:14 PM // 17:14

bleh, i never make that much money, in kaining center i bought kanaxais axe for 100k and 11 ectos, after realizing how rediculously small it is, i sold it for 100k and 20 ectos.

the build is
bargain
talk the trader down
bargain some more
fbuy it by lowering the guys price down 3 ectos
find a buyer
bargain with him
rise his price 3 ectos

Winstar · Aug 06, 2006, 02:04 PM // 14:04

5 shards, 15^50 r9 shadowblade, all those juicy spider legs
