Make an ele, imo. It rules ^^ so much to farm. And for leveling, use factions. Very boring but absurdly fast.

I'd say start a new char in Factions... within 3 hours of game play you can be at lvl 20 with all or most of the stuff you need to farm. You can get all your extra attribute points before leaving noob island.

Warriors have very limited options when it comes to farming. Probably best to start a new character. However, if your goal is to do smite farming for ectos, just do it with your warrior... the W/Rt smite farmer works quite well.

Monks (of course) make good farmers, but I personally find rit farmers to be more fun. Check out the 330 rit farming builds. My rit can do a CoF run in under an hour (not sure if that's a great time or not). If you want to farm things like raptors or Tombs, it'd be better if you made an Ele or A/E. Necro SS ppl are still in some demand also if I'm not mistaken Hope this helps!

You don't have to go through proph too, you can access UW/FoW from factions after a certain point.

I recently made a paragon which I will try to adapt to farming
An elementalist can EASILY farm ALOT - while the paragons cant.
If you love to farm, and want a challenge, get a paragon, otherwise, just go with the flow and get an ele

Prior to EoTN, that statement was true. Elementalists are the new hotness, where you been?

I'd recommend keeping the Warrior (don't delete it, you may lose HM) for UW, NM Raptors (event items), Jade Brotherhood (runes) etc.

Definitely setup an Ele farmer and while you're at, why not build a Monk (55/600), Rit (330/600), Derv (130/Runner) and Necro (55 SS/SV). Each class plays a little different (relieving boredom) and has its own strengths and weaknesses, so cover all bases.

Starting location doesn't matter, just choose the skin you like and go to EoTN at level 10 to XP farm Kilroy Stonekin's Punch-Out Tournament.

I too have a warrior and chaffed at the inability to farm like some of the other classes.Then I heard about raptor farming and saw a build.I tweaked it a hair for myself and now know the joys and loot of solo farming.Kudos and +1 to you Kaida!Damned wicked build.

He has running instructions and vid in link below.What I changed was pretty much when you get to the end after aggroing evrything.I start at D Stability and click each skill in order to Air of Sup.Then pause while watching Glad Def.Once it starts getting low I pop off Light of D and voila,even the brood mother goes down.Now the Air of Sup gives some wicked benefits(gain 20 energy,recharge all skills,buffs etc etc,but once out of every 10-15 runs it makes em scatter).At moment I bought a completely new set of armor and weapons and will equip them accordingly in order to run this more effectively.But considering I'm not equipped right and still pulling this off is just nice.

As a side note:Once the drops peter out simply run Snowman's Lair about 5 times.Make sure to change your build back to normal W/X grab heroes/henchies/friends,then return to raptor farming.Also trying to make a vid too.Will be my first attempt at it.

Warriors can farm many locations, predominately melee foes.

A Raptor Farming build for a Warrior can be as simple as [skill=text]Wary Stance[/skill] and [skill=text]Vengeful Was Khanhei[/skill].

I find a W/Rt is faster in NM than an Ele and has better drops per run during event weekends. A more fleshed out build is OQgkEZVWILqzgtrYYTL5FLm3kvA - you can easily agro & kill all 30 nestlings in NM, ignore the boss, pick up drops and resign. In HM you want an Ele, it pwns the W/Rt.

A W/D or W/Me is a safe, quick and easy UW Smite Farmer, the same can be said for a W/Me FoW beach farmer.

Don't underestimate the Warrior, it's a useful addition to any farming arsenal for big ticket items.

I have no doubts Anti is right.The only reason I haven't went VwK is due to the fact my first GW game purchase was a combo pak.Proph n EotN.After falling in love with these I later purchased F and NF.I have defeated Proph and am near completion of EotN,but have not fully dived into the other 2,thus I lack alot of Rit skills.This will soon change though.

You'll get more mileage out of E/A. Doesn't matter given you can change it once ascended.
