Default Axe Warrior Troll Farmer... Easiest and Fastest Build

Ok everyone knows about all of the 55 monks that farm trolls, but warriors need some of the action also. So this is a warrior build. NOTE: Build is based off of 200 att points.

Att:
Healing - 8
Strength - 2+1
Axe Mastery - 10+1
Tactics - 12+1+1

Equipment:
I just use my old 10/10 Victo's Axe, but it doesnt matter cuz tactics will mostly take care of trolls. Any dmg reduction/+ health shield. I use Malinon's Shield.

All 15k glad's armor and Ascalon Helm. Or if u can't afford go with drok's glad's.

Minor Rune of Strength
Minor Rune of Axe Mastery
Minor Rune of Tactics
Major or Superior Absorption and Vigor

Skills:
Gladiator's Defense {E}
Cyclone Axe
Bonetti's Defense
"Watch Yourself"
Vigorous Spirit
Sprint (To run past any avicara at the beginning of run)
Live Vicarously
Mending

Run Down:
1. Exit into Talus Chute. Put Live Vicarously and Mending on yourself. You will have about 14 energy about now. Run to the left where the troll cave is. If there are any Trolls or Avicara infront of the cave, just sprint past them becuase they will break off as soon as you get into the cave.

2. Gather all of the trolls in the cave that are in the beginning of cave. Do not get the Bosses or Trolls around them. (Unless you want to spend a long time trying to fight boss.)

3. When trolls surround you use Cyclone Axe. Then use Bonneti's. When energy is full use glad's def.

4. When glad's is up use vigorous spirit. Then you should be able to use Cyclone Axe about 2 times. Use WY inbetween the Cyclone. After the 2nd cyclone use Bonneti's Def.

5. Repeat until all of the regular trolls are dead. Collect loot and then return to drok's and repeat. Happy Farming

I like to give credit to guildwiki.org for giving me a bases to the build.

My troll build is very similar to yours. It works well and is just about as quick as a 55 monk. I would take a 3-1 vamp axe. This provides some extra healing (you don't really need it, but I like seeing all the +hp numbers on my screen) and helps kill them off faster.

Having high HP isn't really needed for trolls, so you might want to invest into a superior rune or two. Have you tryied dumping "watch yourself", putting a few more points into strength and running dolyak signet? That is more effective for me, but again, I like like dolyak signet so I try to include it in my farming builds.

I used to use a build like that before I switch to using a hammer build for them. I can stay inside of Gladiator's Defence the entire time with no problems. Just use Counter Blow and "On Your Knees" so that Glads is recharged before it ends then just bring it back up. I use Healing Signet for my heal but do not have to use it all that much really. I also use "Watch Yourself" and Dolyak Signet for added armor. For energy I use Balth's Spirit or you could use a Zealous Hammer but I do not like Zealous mods but that is personal preference.

Either way the build you have posted is very effective.

One word: Triple Chop. Makes glads defense useless because its a bit more spammable therefore more damage.
Atributes I believe are:
15 axe
9 tactics (Min req for shield)
9 Str (?)
Rest into healing.

Triple Chop [E]
Cyclone Axe
Bonettis Defense
Defensive Stance -or- Balth Spirit for those who have energy problems
Dolyak Signet
Sprint
Vigorous Spirit
Live Vicariously

I've always been ok with energy just using bonettis so I just take an emergency stance (Which I rarely use)
