Farm trolls to clear farm code when we dont have favor!! Then when we do have favor go farm spider caves in fow for shards and good gold drops. Noob proof builds means whammos join groups cast enchants runs off gets shattered, dies cusses monk for not running leeroy with him. Give em skill builds make em learn to play and help us all out in groups later on.

Uw chest suck so bad now days.

So this is probably outdated now :P

I never got around to getting factions yet.

Well not really to an extent. I farm it, but I also farm the whole area. Skipping big groups of Avicara and most of the north.

I take out trolls and Krogg (Ranger guy is possible but takes to long) all the Tundra Giants..besides from the ones mixed in with the Avicara. Then I move on to the Avicara scattered around the middle area. I try to take on only 3 at a time. Usually 2 Brave and a Wise or Fierce. Biggest group I can get is 2 Guile, 3 Brave and a Fierce. Then I move on to the Grawl and Grawl bosses to the northeast. I can take out every boss except the monk and ele. Monk is possible but it's to much work.

Anyways the build I run is:

Glads Defense (key skill)
Bonetti's Defense (key skill)
Sever Artery
Gash
Galrath Slash
Distracting Blow/Savage Slash (nerfed now, I don't use it) or Sprint.anything can go here really.
Dolyak Signet (key skill)
Healing Sig (key skill)

My stats are:
14 Strength
11 Swordsmanship
14 Tactics

I also have full glads with an Ascalon helm. Sup Vigor, Abs, Tactics, minor swords and str I think.

This isn't just a troll build, that's to boring I find clearing what I can much more rewarding. 3k minimum a time. 15k xp minimum.. I think I've gotten up to 30k, get even more with scrolls. Takes about 1-3 hours though depending on groups..and everything. I have a lot of fun with it.

I found a pretty good raven staff the other day.
I posted it in the price check and people quoted me 50 - 75k
I have also had about 4 silver dye, 2 shiverpeak keys,a gold hammer with perfect furious upgrade, a LOT of precious blue raven staffs and random bows and swords and thats about all i can remember. All this from about a week of doing this run. I would say about 30-40 times in total. I have made about 15-20k not including the gold raven staff i have up for auction right now. I also have about 130 mountain troll tusks which I am going to get rid of when they reach 250.
Here is a link to the auction for the gold raven staff

We all have done something like that in the past

I forgot to post my build...

Cyclone Axe
Bonettis Defence
Gladiators Defence (elite)
Shield Stance
Balthazars Aura
Symbol of Wrath
Mending
Live Vicariously

Attb points:

HEALING - 8
SMITING - 11
STRENGTH - 6
TACTICS - 13

I use a sup tactics rune and a minor strength rune.
I am using plane droks armor, mostly glads. I have 27 energy and 475 HP

I use a sundering cleaver of fortitude

I know i could greatly improve this by a few simple things like a better shield or better runes and stuff, but its working great like this for me, so

If you did that I can't imagine you killing them very fast.
Riposte requires a sword, and you will do more damage with a balth aura, symbol of wrath and glad defence than tripple chop.

Froggyking · Jun 10, 2006, 01:30 AM // 01:30

switch out defensive for balths spirit if you got energy managment problems...i use it and never run out of energy..just aggro the whole cave to krogg and massacre them..usually takes around 2.5 min to clear the cave..

if you want to farm for profits sake.... IDS farm... or Ettin Farm..... or Titan Farm... or SOLO FoW.... Troll cave is more for powerleveling...

When I used to IDS farm I averaged like 1 IDS every 3 runs or so.... runs take longer but thats 25k + other drops and chest along the runs... and you usually hit 3+ chest on the way.... and you can also kill the Tundra Giants... got a couple fellblades from them!

AND MAKE SURE to change your farming spots every other run.... Troll drops suck as it is... with anti-farm kicking in I have one thing to say about drops, LMFAO.... I hate powerleveling there... but if i'm gunna farm there
to lose anti-farm, might as well make a few k from a customer

can someone tell me what anti-farm is? i haate to sound lik a noob :l

titan0987 · Jun 29, 2006, 10:28 PM // 22:28

I read a few posts and some people seem to think this won't work or is outdated, well it's not. I've used this build and ONLY this build for the longest time. The only times that I have ever died, were when I was interupted :|

I don't even use the gladiator armor, as I was foolish and bought the full 15k Dragons set :|.

I've had GREAT success from this build. I've farmed 2 black dyes just in the last 2 days. And I usually only make 5 or 6 runs a day.

And for you asking the anti-farm code question. It is believed that the more often you farm the same spot over and over, the lesser the drops you get. I believe this was confirmed by Gaile, or whatever her name is. If it seems this is happening, just stop farming there, do some quests, get off of GW, something else for awhile. This doesn't affect the spawns and experience though. So you can still powerlevel as long as you want.

Zelot · Jul 14, 2006, 11:54 PM // 23:54

I tried it but it just to low in the cash intake i Prefer Green Farming in SF

waiver · Jul 21, 2006, 04:13 AM // 04:13

[email protected] don't try this.
16+krogg? are you kidding me. this build was nubbed with all the stances. :\

Valosh · Sep 04, 2006, 07:31 PM // 19:31

All I can say is that I love the OP, your build is excellent. I have had guild wars for a year and I never farmed by gathering up monsters and killing them..I did it the old fashion way, 1 by 1 monster. After coming back from a years break I tried W/N farming trolls and I was horrible at it since this is my first time farming like this. But when I saw your farming method it was very well put together and ive made 8 plat bars in the past hour.This might not be alot for some of those people that play 24/7 with the best gear but its good in my book.

To all the haters, the build doesn't suck and im sure you know better spots to get a better profit out of it but for newbies like me I love farming trolls.

Gigamaster89 · Oct 28, 2006, 02:51 PM // 14:51

I haven't played for 3 or so months now and I'm trying to keep up. If theres anything new thats a MAJOR contribution...

If you are a Warrior and you dont have a Sword you are a "Stupid wammo shit then" ^^
Please guys common sense you dont need to always use your axe.

Slow2die · Nov 16, 2006, 06:17 PM // 18:17

Um, I dont like this build at ALL. The trolls all run away and heal while im stuck attacking the rest, one by one they run off and heal and come back...It takes ages, and they ALWAYS run off...

random.name · Nov 16, 2006, 08:20 PM // 20:20

Dude, check the date of the posts... this is before nerf...
