Hey guys, I used this build to farm minos, and trolls.

Well... I was thinking, this could work on Grawl outside port sledge, because the warrior grawls only use 3 warrior skills, and 2 of them are dmg dealing, but the necros are a problem..

Also, the skills recharge time is a problem, having to wait an extra 30 seconds for MS really slows the run down....

So, I'm asking for some help on making this build, I am using a tweaked form of the build from the link above..

My skills are: Armor Of Mist, Mist Form {E}, Glyph of Sacrafice, MS, Bed of Coals, Lava Font, Frozen Burst, and Flame burst.

Attribs: Fire: 16 (12 + sup rune + headgear)
Energy Storage: 9 (6 + sup rune)
Water Magic: 12 (9 + sup rune)
NOTE: This is WITHOUT the 2 attribute quests, haven't gotten around to doing that on my Ele yet...

I have partially tested this, and it owns the grawl warriors, and after that you can just run away with armor of mist and fight the next group of warriors, ignoring the necros, but you have to watch the amt of damage you take from those necros....

Any ideas guys? This is my first "build", I'm kind of using someone elses (credit to Ixl Tain Ixl for the tweaked build to farm somewhere else, and credit to Dont Feel No Pain for the original build), so all help is needed and welcome.

Its hard for Grawl, since the AI updates mean the Necro's will run towards you and use chiblains. Bye bye Mist Form

hmm... So is there any class to farm Grawl with?? Can Eles do it at all?

Because there is nothing that can stop Chillblains from hitting you, no class that relies on enchantments to stay alive can solo farm grawl. Sad fact.

Take essense bond, balts spirit, shield of regeneration, and shield of absorption. Congrats you can now farm grawl.
(The recharges are so low that you can just recast them after they are stripped.)

Considering that there are multiple Crones in a single area, how will you have enough energy to keep casting those?

MrSlayer · Feb 04, 2007, 07:32 PM // 19:32

And how do you counter the poison they then spread to you, whilst tanking all those grawl?

Sorry but NO you cannot now farm Grawl.

Essence bond+balts spirit

Shield of regen gives 9 regen, poison is 4, that leaves you with 5 regen, and poison is only 10 seconds.

Also, they aren't running towards me like chilblains like someone stated earlier. Infact, when I get close, they run away, it might be because I'm using an axe.

Senrath · Feb 04, 2007, 09:24 PM // 21:24

I tried what you said and I don't have enough energy, due to the fact that they remove essence bond and balths the moment I get them up. And they do run right towards me to use chillblains.

Ummm... for the people thinking that you can't farm Grawl in Witman's Folly because of the Crones? Sorry, Charlie. It works just fine. They stay in wand range and wand the target (me).

Anyone who wants to witness this can meet me in Port Sledge and watch as a 55 monk cleans out Witman's Folly, in-game character is Ehlissa Undomiel.

Chilblains isn't all that bad. If it's just one or two casters, you can watch for it to be triggered and then bolt away. A 2 second casting time means you can run out of range by the time it's finished casting. I've fought Jade Scarabs in the desert this way - no more than 2, mind you, and going AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE the whole time.
