Ok, this is my first ever farming build and I'm proud to say so. Here's some stuff you should probably know before you start:

- This build probably needs lots of tweaking before its perfect, so tips are greatly apprieciated.
- I suck at farming really badly so this shouldn't be too hard for most people
- I don't have the cash to get the most efficient equipment so I'll post what I use and what I think is the premium stuff.
- TBH, I actually can never be bothered killing the boss himself. You can try it if you want though.
- Pics will becoming soon if they are requested (or if no one will request them, I will do them anyway)

Ok, so here goes with the attributes:

I use
Strength: 9 (8+1)
Swordsmanship: 4 (0+1+3)
Tactics: 11 (10+1)
Restoration Magic: 12 (12)

Premium:
Uh, the same thing just with a Strength or Tactics helmet and no Superior Rune of Swordsmanship

Skills:
[card]Dolyak Signet[/card]
[card]Vengeful was Khanhei[/card]
[card]Resilient Weapon[/card]
[card]"Watch Yourself!"[/card]
[card]"I Will Survive!"[/card]
[card]Healing Signet[/card]
[card]Bonetti's Defense[/card]
[card]Sprint[/card]

Equipment:
IMO, nothing with a health or energy penalties. I.E, no Zealous or Vampiric weapons. I use an elemental mod because that's all I have but it doesn't really matter. As for the pommel, I'd say Defence, or the one that gives +7 armor vs. physical. Inscription also doesn't matter, but once again, no penalties. If you take something that reduces your max energy I will shoot you (yes, I am exaggerating). Almost forgot about armor :P I take Gladiators, just because Resilient Weapon is a real energy drainer.

Ok, so heres the strategy I guess. Start out from Rilohn Refuge. Turn left and run past the mob. Be sure to break aggro and be healed up. Keep going and trigger the mobs. This is tricky and requires you to know where to go. See GuildWiki for a pic (I'll add my own if this thread gets anywhere). Continue running and get out of the twisty place where the spiders spawn. Heal up and wait for all the spiders to move to the centre. Sneak back along the edge (you really need to hug it to avoid aggro). Get back to where you first entered the twisty bit, and come down into the spiders. The boss will usually hang back a bit but the normal ones will come close to you.

Start with Dolyak Signet, Vengeful was Khanhei, and Resilient Weapon. Once Vengeful ends, attack until you charge up Watch Yourself. With Dolyak Signet, Resilient Weapon, and Watch Yourself, you should be taking 1 or 0 dmg from the spiders and the occasional 20ish from the boss. Ensure Resilient Weapon is up to ensure you take as little damage as possible and reduce the degeneration to only 2 pips (you suffer from bleeding and poison). Keep Dolyak Signet and Watch Yourself up as much as possible. Once you start to get low energy wise, wait for Vengeful was Khanhei to end and charge up Bonneti's Defence (and use it, duh). When it is about to end, renew Dolyak Signet, Watch Yourself, and Vengeful was Khanhei. I will need to use I Will Survive once, but this may vary depending on how good you are at this.

- The spiders won't run from Vengeful was Khanhei because they use a ranged attack and don't care if you have AoE.
- I doubt that this is quicker than that Ele build on YouTube but I did this anyway (but only because someone said that this was a good way to get xp fast but no one could post a good Warrior build)
- I suppose Witte Was gets some credit for my use of Vengeful was Khanhei... no other credit should be given... unless I forget something... which is likely because I've been working my butt off the last few days (got s---loads of homework now from school)

Ok, now that was alot to type up so be grateful! Please post ideas, comments, CONSTRUCTIVE criticism (this means no 'OMFG noob this is so shit go so do your [insert family member here]), and praise (lots of this is apprieciated). So... Go for it!

I'm pretty sure you can beat this boss faster by just using a sword or axe build.

Thanks for the build..and yes we all have a different way of killing things...but there is an even easeir way of killing this boss and all his cronies.

Been doing this for awhile now..and it seems to work well.

I think i did post another build that works with war/necro...but honestly this war/rit build is just as fast and energy isn't an issue.

Elite: Offering of Spirit

Spirit Rift
Ancestors Rage
Destruction
Gaze from Beyond
Sprit Burn
Sprint
Enraged Charge

You will not take any damage at all doing it this way...run past the group on the ground and let them gather under the bridge, go to top of bridge and cast destructiion. Then basicly spam spirit rift as fast as it comes up cycleing through different targets. Usually the boss will be left standing but he is easy enough to kill with spirit burn and gaze from beyond.

If you are going for Survivor Title then this run is a little risky...i know first hand cuz i got lag ganged and died running through the first group when you leave Rilohn Refuge.!

But if you are just looking for xp and skill points this is about the fasted warrior build i could come up with..and i've tried just about everything with my warrior. Energy is always a problem.

Oh..and to answer you comment about just killing him with axe skills...this IS WAY faster then fighting that way, By Far.



Just give it a shot once or twice and try it out..you may like it you may not. But it will be faster then the VwK build.
