So what do those nice little lvl 12 Ettins drop u.

Lambentviper · Mar 22, 2006, 01:47 AM // 01:47

psh they are level 11. Running the entire cave in about 5 minutes I can get about 3-4 dyes, and usually 2-3 purple weapons...among countless blue items. A quick sprint to the portal and a rezone lets me do it all over again.

Mainly for the mods. I get ALOT of mods. I've actually had a few perfect +7 armr vs. phys/ele recently. But i sell the crappy stuff to people in ascalon, piken, etc.

Cyclone Axe
Gladiator's Defence {E}
Healing Breeze
Live Vicariously
Vigorous Spirit
Bonneti's Defence
Balthazar's Spirit
Retribution (or sprint if you have trouble getting to the cave)

Here;s your build for the cave. This is mine

Gladiators Defense (E)
Bonnettis Deefnse
Cyclone Axe
Penetrating Attack
Executioners Strike
Dismember
Axe Rake
Live Vicariously

Axe-15
Tactics-12
Healing Prayers-8

I find this build to work well for me. The occasional Disrupting chop down my cyclone axe kills me, but aside from that, I can take all of cave at once Excluding ranger boss, but including war boss at once, in 5 minutes. So, i dunno. I use same build for griffons too. Ever since they put in the scarabs i just got more interested in PVP. However, i never relied on griffons. I actualyl never really liked farming griffons, dam bright desert.

Venenatus Ensis · Mar 22, 2006, 01:55 AM // 01:55

personally im fond of sand drake farming outside of elona with my warrior. might take a bit but you get plenty of nice staffs to sell. definitly not for the impatient

bl1nk6 · Mar 22, 2006, 04:17 AM // 04:17

you forgot to mention where to farm them.
ps. i know where to farm everything except the griffons

Teutonic Paladin · Mar 22, 2006, 04:19 AM // 04:19

Check the Warrior Builds sections, Griffon hunters are everywhere. Popular locations include The Scar and south-east of Augury Rock.

Lambentviper · Mar 22, 2006, 03:51 PM // 15:51

yeah, since they have nerfed their old location.....right outside of Destiny's Gorge there are supposedly a few good places.

dont feel no pain · Mar 22, 2006, 05:32 PM // 17:32

hey thats my exact hydra build ^_^...except for the attributes , they should be

10 healing
15 strength (+4)
13 tactics (+3)

Racthoh · Mar 22, 2006, 09:06 PM // 21:06

You farm those grawls? Are there more there than outside of Port Sledge?

Mournblade · Mar 22, 2006, 09:11 PM // 21:11

Probably not in total, but there are a lot of them grouped tightly together. I'd say you could take out 20 or so pretty quickly. And it makes a nice finish to the zone once all the trolls, giants and other monsters are dead. =)

Solberg the Exiled · Mar 23, 2006, 03:02 AM // 03:02

hmmm... you say that you farm the grawls in whiteman's folly north of drok forge. However, whitman's folly is south of drok's forge, there are grawls there too, but from the screen cap, it would seem that you are in talus chute instead...

If you follow the troll cave and go out the right exit and keep going straight there is avicara, but eventually you will run into decent size groups of grawl.
