Glad to hear it . I don't think Vermin put hexes on you (do they?) so if you are using it for vermin I would suggest using Healling Breeze to help with the poison and bleeding, instead of Smite Hex (this would make it similar to King's Spectre's build).

Seeping Wound is a hex used by Shreader. I use something similar to what you posted in both the Skyway and Pongmei and it's nothing short of easy.

It's does the exact same thing, you just don't have to use bonettis during the fight since their attacks will give you energy all the time.
It's not the energy, it's the health bar I was worried about. Shielding hands gives you 10 seconds, but then you have to go 15 seconds with no stance to keep you going. I know that with barbs on me my life drops like a rock if I cast as spell or something between cyclone axe and bonetti's.

Do you do something in that 15 second gap, or are a few cyclones and triples enough to keep you going?

Another Question I have?

Does anyone else, kill the ahh fan and the jade to try and get runes.

This has produced a few nice runes for me lately.

I even got one from a yeti(minor Strength), did not know that was possible.

In one 10 minute run, I got all of the loot normal to the kirin and undergrowth, but from the jade i got superior smiting rune, and silver dye from the A, Boss.

Do you get as much gold here as farming Vermin? I know you don't get Gothic weapons,or any perfect weapon by farming Vermin (except Shreaders daggers). But when I farm vermin, I get about 3-5K gold per half-hour, not including materials. This run seems shorter and more difficult, no? Can it drop perfect purples farming Kirin?

BTW, I think the best thing about the ops post was not the build, which is basically average. The best thing was his comments on how to maximize earnings by selling and making materials. That was very cool.

Nice job. good detail on the material selling. For those of you that dont have a warrior, this can be farmed with a 55 monk and a barrage monk ranger just as easy. The key to farming many areas is pick up everything that drops and figure out how to salvage and craft and sell for the most money.

Don't complain, that's your build. This is "our" build. And of course this is changing to same old trolls.

with 2 maintained enchantments bonetti's is your only energy source which is too conditional in my opinion. also I think that Live Vicarously is a waste... Endure Pain is so much better and stacking both is just overkill... and I dislike Mending Wammos in general...

so I would make a few tweaks to your build to improve it and to also work in non hex farming areas...

use a Totem Axe which gives you 20/20 sundering(great with judge's insight), +5 energy and 20% longer enchantments
you could also bring a second set with a zealous axe of some sort, for when you need energy

16(12+3+1) Axe Mastery(if you can offer the sup rune)
9(8+1) Strength
8 Smiting Prayers
7 Healing Prayers

you should also bring a vigor and absorption rune, superiors if you can afford, less if not. make sure the vigor is higher or equal to the absorption, so dont bring minor vigor with superior absorption for example as you dont want your life to be too low...

Triple Chop(E)
Cyclone Axe
Bonetti's Defense
Wild Blow/Distrupting Chop/Dolyak Sig/Shield Stance/Watch Yourself/Sprint/any other utility that you like(depending on personal prefference and location)
Judge's Insight
Endure Pain
Vigorous Spirit
Mending/Healing Breeze(whichever you preffer and depends on location or drop it all together for another utility skill)

Only problem with that is that 20 minutes on UW are ALOT harder than 20 minutes in Pongmey
