Finally! A build that uses my favourite PvE skill

If you do not want to read through a lot of the guides, ctrl+f and type what you wanna look at.

List of Farmable Bosses/Areas/Mobs:

Craw Stonereap
Still in construction.

Main concept:
The build was originally created for Dragon Slash, a skill that was very rarely used in farming builds, if ever actually used or shown, in farming builds. This build not only makes it useful, in fact it makes it excel five times over in farming certain bosses.

Craw Stonereap Farm:

Build:
Dragon Slash
Standing Slash (Also optional)
Optional
Healing Signet
Dolyak Signet
Enraging Charge
"For Great Justice!" (will be abbrieviated as FGJ in the guide)
Flail

Attributes:
Swordsmanship: 12 + 1 + 2
Strength: 10 + 1
Tactics: 8 + 1

Equipment:
Any sword.
Any shield, preferably Arrahhsh's Aegis or a strength shield.

Strategy:

From Altrumm Ruins, go into Arborstone [Explorable]. Go through the arch and turn to the left and jog that way. When you reach the hallway, aggro the enemies, use Enraging Charge and leeroy them. Don't worry if you get crippled, just use Healing Signet when your health gets low. If you're sure you won't survive this just ram the healer and use FGJ, and use Flail when Enraging Charge ends. Spike your skills on it and it should die soon, now go for the others - by the way keep Dolyaks up while doing this.

Ok, once you've ditched / killed them you should see Craw Stonereap. Wait for your skills to recharge then aggro him. When you are within striking range use FGJ, and Enraging Charge, which will charge up Flail so use it now. Spike it with your attack skills and keep Dolyaks up. You should have 3 attack skills. Just spam them and keep dolyaks and flail up. Use healing signet if you feel you are in an emergency. The boss should be dead pretty much within 30 seconds / a minute if you get unlucky.

Post ideas, build is still in construction so I will accept constructive critisism.

So.... your only self-heal is Healing Signet?

And your only defensive skill is Dolyak Signet?

And you're relying on having ridiculous adrenaline-gaining capability and spamming attacks to take down wardens and one Necro boss?
.... If it works then I suppose fair enough... but I'm assuming this is Normal Mode you're talking about, or you would be utterly walked over. There are better builds.... but... not with Dragon Slash.

I've seen some of your other builds, your view on farming is not very good.

But meh, if it works, it works. The Stonereaper or w/e is called is only worth like 5 k now...and if that's the only thing your killing...

Em, isnt dragon slash with out whirlwind attack kinda fail?
the synergy between them is godly...

Trueslash Noobfoot · Oct 06, 2007, 09:15 AM // 09:15

He is killing a boss not mobs.

indeed
good catch

Duuuuhhhh. it's too obvious.

The Bard · Oct 07, 2007, 04:18 PM // 16:18

all you need to kill that boss is grenths balance and a running skill to get past the mob

seriously, i've killed him plenty of times with only 2 skills on my bar. no need to make it too complicated ^_^
your build is still viable though, works great in normal pve

Trueslash Noobfoot · Oct 07, 2007, 05:47 PM // 17:47

lol yeah. I've just taken a new view of farming, that's why people think is so crap. lawl.

Can't farm anything today... too busy

let me rephrase what I said, I have been in a bad mood for the past couple of days (school stress ftl). Your view of farming is different, but the areas you farm are not very profitable iirc. The stonereaper, is like 5 k, and if that drops every....let's say 7 runs, and how long does a run take? 5 mins? that's around 9 k every hour...you could be farming Rago in FA with H/H flagging with another build and make....50 k per hour? It's just the question of profit.

lol yea kinda. But that doesn't make my build unviable :P
