Thought of this build, using triple chop for dmg. Need's the normal 55monk set and Sunspear Title for Whirlwind Attack. :>
Attributes:
16 Smiting Prayers
10 Protection Prayers
10 Axe Mastery
7 Divine Favor

Skillbar:
Protective Spirit
Shield of Absorption
Shielding Hands
Judge's Insight
Triple Chop
Whirlwind Attack/Cyclone Chop
Balthazar's Spirit
Strenght of Honor

This works on Luxon Assassin's and Knight's outside Marketplace atleast, more tests needed.

All comments are appreciated, and this is my first build/topic to farming area.

seems interesting, however, if you have that many points in smiting, why not take a smiting elite/damage dealer. I understand that you are trying to get away from the standard 55hp build, and cudos for that, but imo, SoJ might be a better choice.
Thinking outside of the box, if only there were more people like you.

Unique, but not as effective as a SoJ/SS 55/105 monk.

Thank you for comments. :> Is there anyway to make it as good or better then soj monk build?

RyXXed · Dec 20, 2007, 05:38 PM // 17:38

It's a nice radical idea, but I don't really see it getting better than the SoJ monk. Besides, you don't have a regen spell, only damage reduction, and that just might make the build unusable in many areas.

Orin Rinth · Dec 20, 2007, 05:55 PM // 17:55

It can be modified to use regen too, just using brains and thinking a few changes to it.

It'd be pretty funny when you explode almost instantaneously to any sort of degen

Then don't use it in areas with degen, or add in some regen skills.......

Seems like an odd W/Mo troll farmer variant. Looks a little messy to manage and has limited application compared to SS/SV/SoJ, but an interesting experiment nonetheless

Spamming your spells will stop you from attacking and killing anything.

MisterB · Dec 21, 2007, 06:36 AM // 06:36

It's an interesting build. I think you can get more damage by pulling points from Smiting to get 12 in Axe Mastery. Otherwise, at 16 Smiting, you may as well run SoJ. Also, it may be worthwhile to obtain a vampiric axe of enchanting on a weaponswap for additional damage. A Vampiric weapon should also help with degen while in combat.

You can always use use shockwave does little less damage but has lower energy cost can and cast time and recharge.I wouldn't use vamp axe on a 55 stick to an FFS with an echantment mod.

farming = effective killing.

This isn't effective. Tho it might be fun =D

Trevor The Wave · Dec 22, 2007, 07:31 AM // 07:31

what do you mean it's not effective? whatever works is effective, and this works. it's just a little slower.

you obviously don't understand the word effective.

Abonai Laguna · Dec 22, 2007, 08:32 PM // 20:32

It's a nice experiment, keep up the thinking.

Perhaps you should look the word up there champ. Effective = capable of performing a task so Trevor is correct.

You're thinking of efficient which is performing a task in the best possible manner with the least waste of time and effort.

Point taken though, the build is effective but not efficient.
