Default My troll and ettin farming builds

hey everyone

Jus after I capped the skill triple chop from factions, i decided to make a couple of farming builds around it.

The troll build is basically the glads defence one, with a tweak, aka, no glads defence

skills

live vicariously
vig spirit
sprint
to the limit
cyclone axe
executioners axe
bonettis defence
triple chop{E}

stats

healing 10
strength 4 (2+2)
axe 15 (12+3)
tactics 9(8+1)

I strongly suggest using a max furious axe(like the razorstone) for this, as you need the adrenaline for bonettis, and bring a damage reducing sheild. A full set of glads, with helmet of your choice is best bet, and a sup absord and vigour if possible too.


You throw up LV, run to the trolls, as per spec, aggro them( I generally aggro them all in the first part of the cave, then hit the bosses after). Howver, just before they hit you, throw up vig spirit, then triple chop, bonettis, cyclone, bonettis. you wil get another cyclone in before triple recharges. But before you do triple next, cast vig spirit again.

If cyclone gets disrupted, dont panic! just make sure bonettis is up, and jus go through the hurt. you will go down to about 100 health, but then a quick combo of cyclone/triple should bring you back up. Reap your rewards from the killing. You should be killing the trolls quite fast with this build, however, if you hit the wrong skills, or hit bonettis to early after cyclone/triple it is really easy to die(has happened to me a few times :P)


Ettin farming build

skills

live vicariously
healing signet
dolyak signet
bonettis
cyclone axe
executioners axe
triple chop{E}
sprint

stats

healing 10
strength 9 (7+2)
axe 14 (11+3)
tactics 8(7+1)

once again use a furios axe, and a damage reducing sheild. A zealous axe may work well here for energy control, and so you could replace bonettis with another spike skill. A full set of glads, with helmet of your choice is best bet and a sup absord and vigour if possible too.

Rougly the same as the troll farming. Use LV as your main healing, and just use the spike skills to damage the ettins. Dont worry about heal sig on them, as you should be doing enough damage to take them down even with that. Use dolyaks when you put up bonettis to avoid knockdown. Also throw dolyaks up whenever you can just to reduce damage. Bonettis should only be used here as aan energy control method, not to block damage, as it is with the trolls. Only use heal sig while under bonettis/dolyaks, and you should only really need it if you have been missing alot of swings, as lv should easily keep u alive here.

You should kill the ettins quite fast, not as fast as some other builds, but I like it becuase I can use triple chop.


Well, feel free to test these out and get back to me on how you find them, cause these are really my first builds ive came up with on my own(well troll one is jus a tweak) and id lobve to know how ive done
