I farm anything and everything with my ranger (YES I KNOW ITS A WARRIOR POST but its about farming so im down) IDS solo i find is alright. Ettins r easy cash (i smell nerf[nvm i just remembered factions...they soon wont care]) trolls i just use for skill points cause drops r just that bad. normal imp farming also sucks (i mean not mineral springs ids farming) Forest of FoW is great and same with beach (especially cause i found a build that i can do both forest and cave in 1 run) hmm what am i missing...GRIFFONS SUCK...especially with the new queen farming there.(the best mass aggro of griffons i know of are where the queen is. So i think that boss was just a lame excuse to partial nerf griffon farming. id prefer ranger farming over any other. SO lets see here;

Griffons suck
Trolls good to lvl...thats it
FoW anywhere is great
Ettins r great
IDS is good but needs sum practise
normal imp farming has occasional golds
...thats about it.

KK and Ty, will try. I was doing it with Alesia (to pack extra offense) but no drops except gold. I was doing this on Dunes of Despair to get quick to Siege Wurms and interrupt em. Not a single shell. Didn't want to solo cause Losaru's using Riposite builds as well

Guess I'll have to go for regular Wurms then....

nah...no need for Alesia with this build...i changed it a bit by using a Zealous sword and using Sprint instead of Bal's Spirit...helps get past the Enchanted outside of Dunes...

it really suprised me how fast this build kills the wurms...used to farm them with a smite build (Sig of Judgement, Bal's Aura, SoW) and the fastest i could drop one was 2min 30sec...i didn't time this build, but i know it was faster than that...

The IDS run is surprisingly easy and a nice change from Ettins.

How about all the griffons east of Destiny's Gorge? I've been farming those lately with this build, and it's been working quite well (800g-1k per run, plus keys - no runes tho)

W/Mo
Strength 12+1
Tactics 12+1+3

Skills:
Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Gladiator's Defense {E}
Shield Stance
Bonetti's Defense
Healing Signet
Sprint
Watchful Spirit

Bring a Zealous sword and a normal sword to switch to out of battle, use the +45/-2 stance (or enchanted, as you'll have Watchful up), go nuts. You can kill Griffons (duh), the Rock-Eater scarabs that might pop up in the beginning, and the occasional Sand Wurm that might pop up... ripostes ftw.

Use Glad's, spam ripostes. When Glad's runs out, use Shield Stance and spam more ripostes. When Shield is out, Glad's should be back up, so throw it up and ...spam yet more ripostes. When Glad's runs out, use Bonetti's to fill the gap until Shield Stance recharges.

Most battles end before the second Glad's is through. I've taken every griffon and sand wurm I could aggro in the zone with this (Don't even try the Sand Giants - Vile Touch will take you out), and the rockshots don't have anything to interrupt other than healing signet, which you can probably still get off since you'll be in a defensive stance all the time and can block Distracting Shot.

Watchful Spirit makes it so you hardly ever have to use Healing Signet, but they're both up there anyway, just in case.

...This build's cash flow is just under 1k per run, and I was wondering if anyone had an idea on how to improve it or else if there's a better spot to farm for cold, hard cash. I sell the items to the merchant, unless there's a salvagable mod. How do the hydras' gold (cash) drops compare to this?

OK slaying devil, go into FoW, and sprint past the first few guys. Take a left when the road forks, and go down that path and run past the skeletons, and take another left at the path. Take that path all the way down into the forest, and sprint through there. Keep going until you arrive at it.

I can tell you this...

Trolls, Griffons and Ettins

1,Trolls-Require Most attention and skill set ect....Take the longest time

2.Ettins-Require Half attention... various Builds..Medium time

3.Griffons-Requires half attention...Set builds Most people use same thing..I vote its about the 2nd best

<<<DROP WISE>>>
1.Ettins-5 runs...Sup vig and Sup smiting
2.Griffons-After The nerf Not many golds... But all the items add up
3.Trolls-Rarely any gold drops... VERY VERY GOOD FOR POWER Lvling though
(Outside of Forge)

IGN:Miss Geers Power

Hope u like the drops and get out theyre farming

[MoX] Is recruiting Pm Death skrya or Miss Geers Power... Thanks for looking
If you want some good gold drops from Griffins, try farming the Blessed Griffins outside camp rankor... I pull in some wicked drops from them.. but I use my 55

Where do you farm the ettins? I know I sound dumb asking the question but I am just getting into farming and need to know a build and/or where to farm them.
