Hi,
What builds to you use? I have been trying to come up with one but cant make one that hits the caster and the melee ones at the same time. And while doing this not giving out any conditions otherwise getting it returned :S

My build at the moment is...

Doylak Signet
Gladiators Defence
Riposte
Deadly riposte
Galrath slash (For casters)
Whatch yourself
Healing signet
Bonetti's defence

It can take down 1 group at a time but this takes time and was wondering if there are better solutions.

Please give me your ideas.
Thanks
Weeping

Really you cant farm them and there arent to many good drops you can use balanced stacnce along with mending, bonnetties, cyclone, healing sig., live vigrously, live vicirously, and glads, and choose some other skills try what u need to farm them thats a stanard troll farming build aswell as griff.s

Weeping Wind · Feb 23, 2006, 05:50 PM // 17:50

I could use that but again the casters would still prove to be a problem. I'll give it a shot.

striderkaaru · Feb 23, 2006, 05:54 PM // 17:54

don't think you can get them at the same time. you have to take the melee and the casters out separately.

Weeping Wind · Feb 23, 2006, 06:20 PM // 18:20

Yeah. Well if I get time some day I'll work on it better. Thanks anyway.

Chilblains, and they'll transfer the poison to you. If Cyclone Axe is your only attack skill it will take you a very long time to kill them all.

They're probably not the best to farm, but the income is pretty much set (since you just get mass drops) and it couldn't be easier to kill them even in large groups. On occasion, you can expect Major Vigor and Absorption for some reason to drop every so often. For me personally, 3k+ in 10 minutes is easy gold when you just need a little extra funds without much effort. Just make sure to trade the 20+ necklaces to the collector for the staves that sell for 125 each as opposed to the necklaces that sell for 8. And never forget to ID everything, even white items since there will be a lot of them.

Why would you want to id the white ones? is there sometin i missed?

Racthoh · Feb 23, 2006, 10:06 PM // 22:06

White items increase in value when you ID them. Sometimes low (few extra gold) to doubling the value.

Here is my altered build of Racthoh's (PM if you want me to remove it).

W/x

Strength - 3+1
Sword Mastery - 12+3
Tactics - 11+1+1

Skills:
Gladiator's Defense[E]
Shield Stance
Bonetti's Defense
Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Pure Strike
Galrath Slash
Healing Signet

This build kills casters faster then Racthoh original build (even though it's the same skill set) imo.

I've seen ID kits get used up on a white before, but never realized it could increase the value. Anyway, I wanted to test this and sure enough, white items can increase in value.

I spent 52 gold to realize a 66 gold increase on 13 white items from Scoundrels Rise just outside of Kryta. So I averaged 1 gold per item return. It may be different for Southern Shiverpeaks - I'm not sure, but I wonder if one gold return is worth the effort.

Murder In China · Feb 24, 2006, 03:43 AM // 03:43

It's worth it later on.

Two April Mornings · Feb 24, 2006, 03:52 AM // 03:52

some whites outside grawls go from 44 gold to being worth 103 gold

Racthoh · Feb 24, 2006, 06:06 AM // 06:06

It's only worth it on items later in the game (desert onward is a safe bet), otherwise you're not getting a huge return on your investment.

Just use W/Me FOW solo build, kill em all !

Lord Oranos · Feb 24, 2006, 01:27 PM // 13:27

Yeah its fairly easy to farm them, I can kill all of them, but my pack usualy fills up when I clear the middle. Im having a bit of trouble finding spots to farm, so this has been my spot for a while. Just think of spells stances and skills that will reduce the damage done to you.

Well, nvm it seems you already have dolyak and watch yourself. I guess it wouldnt hurt to tell you that physical resistance gives you 40+ armor to(of course physical attacks).

Angardel Morthond · Feb 24, 2006, 10:22 PM // 22:22

I wanted to see what I could do with a W/N, so this is what I came up with. I found it to be more fun the using a build with Glads Defence, since now you don't only have to tank and wait for them to kill themselves, you also attack now.

Blood Magic - 9
Strength - 8 +1
Swordmanship - 10+3
Tactics - 9 + 1

Dolyak Signet
Galrath Slash
Final Thrust
Sever Artery
Watch Yourself!
Shield Stance
Healing Signet
Blood renewal

Note: I created this build when I was farming with my cousin, so I could take on large groups and kill them all at once with his help. Seeing as you're probably doing this alone, and therefor taking on smaller groups at a time, because you only attack 1 Grawl at a time, the healing might seem a bit to much. So you can switch blood renewal with an attack skill if you like, or take shield stance out.

4runner · Feb 24, 2006, 11:22 PM // 23:22

Im not sure if this helps at all, but I do it with a w/m and a m/w!

w/m
16axe
11 str
10 tactics

1.cyclone
2.executuoners
3.eviserate
4.disrupting
5.bonettis
6.watch ur self
7.balanced or doylak (kd only)
8.rez

M/W basically a Soj/healer

We do it strictly for slavage! Just take out all the ones towards port seldge, you wont be able to round them all up at the begining, so kill group by group till you get to the middle, then round all of them up AND KILL!!!!! Kill bosses 1st,then casters, then hammers dudes!!! Fun!

No mention of solo!
