There's spider soloing in the FoW, and some people have been able to solo Ataxes and Smites in the UW with a rather unique build. W/Mo isn't nessacary for the FoW spider run, and is a bad idea for the UW (UW needs a /N, or /E).

And even when you have found these threads. To solo them its going to take you quite a few K to be able to practice it. My first 4 runs ended within 10 seconds of me arriving at where I was sposed to be trying to farm. Its a quick 4k blown out the window and I really dont think Soloing it is worth the time and effort put into practing it. Even if you get an Ecto drop, you hav only just made back what you spent to practice it

Just my opinions.

Yup
FoW Solo Axe Warrior

* First off, you need to be wearing Gladiator's armor, Axe +1 Helmet (executioners) and Knight's / Ascalon Boots.
* Second, don't forget to have atleast Major Absorbtion and Major Vigor on your Armor, otherwise you're porked. You will also need a nice stance shield, I use while enchanted for while mending is up.
* Thirdly, Just run past the shadow army and solo either the Wailing lord forest (extremely slow solo), or the spider run... or try to squeeze in both if you have no nagging parents asking you to spend some table time with them.

Attributes:
Axe Mastery - 16 (12+1[from helmet]+3[Superior Axe Mastery])
Strength - 14 (11+3[Superior STR])
Tactics - 11 (8+3[Superior Tactics])
*Forgive me if I fudged the numbers up, I'm not at home to get the exact stats, but it is something like this.
  1. Sprint
  2. Cyclone Axe
  3. Disrupting Chop
  4. Cleave
  5. Dolyak Signet
  6. Healing Signet
  7. Watch Yourself
  8. Mending

-WARNING-
This doesn't work every time. Tweak the build to fit your standards... I use a (while enchanted) shield to mitigated damage, maybe you should do the same. Mallion's comes to mind.

No way you can solo UW as warrior. Aataxe will rape you in few hits.

seriously, i think everyone should read Racthoh's articles on FoW SOLO warrior/x spider farming and his UW SOLO warrior/necro aataxe and smites farming.

It will take a few platinum to get good enough to do it efficiently, but to everyone who says it cant be done...just needs to open their eyes.

SO they spam riposte? dont hit them with a sword!..common sense..

Search box is your best friend ^_^.

You can even type in Racthoh in the search query, he has awesome guides, not just UW.
