Hmm Another Troll Farming guide

This build has been working well for me but I don't think its as fast as a 55.
And I have not died once yet.

The Weapon: The barbed sword hilt is for Deadly Riposte, to make the Trolls bleed more




*you could also use the crystal desert collectors shield
The Attributes:




The Skills:




The Armor: Full Gladiators Set, Tactics Helm with Minor Tactics Rune
other runes: Major Vigor, Attunement, Vitae and Minor Swordsmanship.


The Strategy:
Exit Droks and cast mending wait for energy recharge then cast Live Vicariously

Run towards the Troll Cave. If a group of Avicara is close to the Cave entrance
then just go back to Droks and start over, because the Avicara will follow you into the cave

If the Avicara are relatively far from the entrance, you should be fine just running by them. If they are aggroed, just keep going.
They will stop following you and probably won't kill you in the time they are near.

Now you are in the cave.

Aggro the first group of trolls and use shield stance, then cast vigorous spirit

start attacking one of the trolls to gain adrenaline and health

now you should be gaining about 27 hp per hit (12+15)

and with shield stance you should be blocking most attacks

while shield stance is active use riposte and deadly riposte as much as possible



keep riposte-ing until shield stance ends
when it ends use bonettis and your energy should shoot right up to max
use both ripostes real quick then activate and Shield of Judgement
and also don't use any ripostes during SoJ

now during SoJ, beacause you're not in a stance, you'll be taking a lot of damage. Don't worry beacuse some trolls will run away when soj is done.

When SoJ ends,use bonetti's fast to help regain health.

also remember to recharge vigorous spirit when needed

Then alternate with the ripostes and bonettis until shield stance recharges, then when shield stance ends use bonettis until your energy is max, then SoJ


repeat until all trolls are dead



this build could definitely be improved upon, maybe switch around some things so it would work with cyclone axe

but im not an axe person :D


this is my first build, so constructive criticism is helpful



thanks

looks pretty nice ;) haven't tested it yet though, but doesn't it take ways to long to take them out one for one? i used to use the standard cyclone axe build myself until the ai got nerved. now i only farm uw ;)

  dagget on 12/28/06 03:25
 
added: maybe u can use a better sword with like 15>50?
anywayz, nice build

  Pulse on 12/28/06 03:29

.. He only needs the sword for the bleeding.. he has 2 swordsmanship.

  Pickletron on 12/28/06 04:34

Now I need to cap SoJ on my warrior :(

Nice idea btw :)

  Blazings on 12/28/06 09:45

I don't want to discourage this idea, but with the riposte and stuff it looks a lot like a build I came up with a while ago.
New W/Mo troll farm build
If you compare the skills.. only I used Gladiators Defence as elite, because it lasts longer with my build ^^
But keep up the think work!!

-Blazings

  Blazings on 12/28/06 09:47

Soz for double post but:
Only thing I don't have there is the display of the weapon, but it's just a normal Sskai's Sword.

  Blazings on 12/28/06 09:50

THEY SHOULD REALY ADD A EDIT BUTTON HERE!!!

I also use Gladiators defence, because you keep blocking 75% of the attacks ;) Most of them don't run away with it.

  Belshazaarswrath on 12/28/06 12:12

Nice build and everything. But it looks rathers sluggish. The build I use now(made by mwpeck) kills every troll in about 10 seconds and I always get to the trolls no matter what spawn. What is the approximate killing speed?

  Blazings on 12/28/06 12:41

Another post by me: @Belshazaarswrath: You have made me so curious now, what is that build? =]

  Belshazaarswrath on 12/28/06 17:41

Well its from mwpeck(pls don't sue me!)
ok

Stats for my ele are

100+ energy via +30/-2 focus+wand
16 fire
10 energy storage
10 water

mist form
armor of mist
glyph of sacrifice
meteor shower
bed of coals
lava font
frozen burst
searing/tenais heat(personal touch)

you use armor of msit to get past trolls/avicaras
u put on mist form after you gather all the desired trolls in the cave
as soon as you cast that cast glph of renewal+meteor shower then bed of coals then lava font then frozen burst and if anything is alive use tenias/searing.

@ Blazing, trust me, you are not the creater of using Riposite, nor is he, and Shield Stance also blocks 75% of the attacks. Also, I do not understand why Vigorious Spirit and Live Vigooriously is there. They only heal around 20 everything you hit and it is not really worth the 2 spots it takes up.

I didn't say I was the creator. I only said I've posted this before.

Yes, but when you have SoJ activated you are ment to be hit or it will take ages since they get almost no damage. What I conclude of this build is that he doesn't uses Shield Stance in combo with SoJ.

The Vigorious Spirit and Live Viraciously.. It's well worth the spots! I only use like 4 skills while farming them and if you don't take them, how are you going to heal yourself?

You said it yourself, this build is a little different. Stop trying to take credit.

A: You didn't post it in the Guides section, only as a forum post.

B: Similar builds have been posted before yours here.

@ghOstey: I might be tempted to take Live Vic and Vig Spirit out and put Watchful Spirit in there. If you're evading attacks or have a KD on everyone, the 5 regen should be enough to heal you.

Correct me if I'm wrong but SoJ still activates even if they miss....

  martatar on 12/30/06 07:14
 
needs hit.

try using shield with reduce dmg while enchanted, as most of dmg taken is during SoJ (enchant) + you are always enchanted and i guess that "pernament" dmg reduction is better than 20% for -5.

to gameamp, add edit here, would really help to improve comments ^^

  Xedge on 01/01/07 16:08

>>nice build works a little slowly but it was a good basic idea
>even though this basic idea was thought up a long time ago it still is different from most builds i've seen

  Xedge on 01/01/07 16:09

ive actually made W/N and used SS

  Iccold on 01/02/07 20:57

kinda tricky to understand but good build

  Gynok on 01/23/07 14:30

well i came to make a post on this build....and it fell apart (ie i almost ended up writin a guide). personally ive given up on farmin trolls ..cos well theyre crap for everything apart from exp. but if ur desperate for a better warrior build than this cos u really hate trolls pm me in game and ill give u a few.

IGN's: The Last Gynok
Cheap Goddess
My Bloody Cleavage
Come Into My Web
Here To Give U Hell
etc.
well whatever

  Gynok on 01/23/07 14:31

  Isthrandir on 04/24/07 04:13

@ gynok: that is stuff that more people should make not of
