W/Mo

Attributes:
Strength - 14 (+3 from rune)
Tactics - 15 (+3 from rune, +1 from helm)
Healing Prayers - 8

Equipment:
Best would be full knights armor with tactics helm.
Zealous sword
Any hammer will work
-2/+45 while enchanted shield

Skills:
[skill]Gladiator's Defense[/skill]
[skill]Riposte[/skill]
[skill]Deadly Riposte[/skill]
[skill]Dolyak Signet[/skill]
[skill]Renewing Smash[/skill]
[skill]Healing Breeze[/skill]
[skill]Mending[/skill]
[skill]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill]

The minos you want to farm are outside of Ice Tooth Cave. (Make sure you are in hard mode):

To start leave Ice Tooth, cast mending and balth spirit. Aggro a group of minos (as many as you can get on you) then cast dolyak>breeze>glads>deadly riposte>riposte. When glads def runs out, use renewing smash.

In groups larger than 3 make sure to keep breeze up at all times.

It takes about 20 minutes, and I get about 2.5k per run, its not great, but is the best I have found so far.

Here is a pic of the drops:
Enjoy

not to hijak the thread, you can also 55 these guys using any of the generic 55 builds to farm them.

I used a 105 SS necro build first. This is a little faster, and you can kill the boss, who usually drops a gold with this build.

i've posted an almost similar build half a year ago on a german page.....
wouldn't have thought that it works in hm

Nice build. Not a big fan of glads defence though. Gonna try a triple chop build, tell you how it goes.

This is a build I used on griffons, the only difference is I switched out "watch yourself" for renewing smash.

Can we please get griffon farming back now that loot has been nerfed?

Arkantos · Apr 23, 2007, 05:14 AM // 05:14

Standard Triple Chop build works great here. OP, do you have a map of the farm?

Sk8tborderx · Apr 23, 2007, 05:20 AM // 05:20

Added map to original post.

Since this is such an easy farm, I give it a week before it is infested with bots.

Looks interesting. Looks like the first HM Warrior farm I might be able to do.

[skill]Triple Chop[/skill][skill]Cyclone Axe[/skill][skill]Bonetti's Defense[/skill][skill]Dolyak Signet[/skill][skill]Vigorous Spirit[/skill][skill]Live Vicariously[/skill][skill]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill] Optional

Don't remember exact attributes I was using (didn't save to template) It went something like 14 axe, 8 healing, rest in str, then in tactics.

KingKryton · Apr 23, 2007, 06:41 AM // 06:41

i do same run (except for the spiders), with a axe

only problems is i cant kill the minotaur boss. Any idea which of the first 4 skills i could replace to kill him?

unknown1 · Apr 23, 2007, 06:44 AM // 06:44

change the weakness one to disruption chop if thats whats the problem (he heals himself) or to executioner if u just need more damage

Roshi_ikkyu · Apr 23, 2007, 06:47 AM // 06:47

tried both of those and both dont work either. disruption does but it still takes far too long

unknown1 · Apr 23, 2007, 06:57 AM // 06:57

what skills does the boss use ??

That is what I got from the whole run.

The reason I like this build is because it can kill the boss, and he usually drops a gold or a tome.

A Leprechaun · Apr 23, 2007, 07:17 AM // 07:17

lol no way, i know this is in hard mode and all but this is my warriors first farming place from lvl 10 through to about 14 i farmed these guys for ages, will definately try this out.
