This build is happily brought to you by mwpeck (AKA Crimson), and one of his friends.(Harrow)

STATS:



Pretty Simple......Quite a few runes involved, but they are all relatively cheap. In this build, I used a Superior Beast Mastery, Major Expertise, Minor Wilderness Survival and a Major Vigor. (all of them cost no more then 5k, depending on the major vigor price at the time).

SKILLS:



1. Troll Unguent
2. Throw Dirt
3. Inferno
4. Oath Shot - Elite (Can be gotten as early as Iron Mines Mission from Hilios The Dutiful)
5. Dodge
6. Lightning Reflexes
7. Whirling Defense
8. Edge of Extinction

GEAR:

This build uses Druids Armor (mainly for the high energy-costing inferno).

As for weaponry, i have been doing all my runs with just a candy cane bow, but I plan on switching it out for a bow with a life mod. If you notice, I have 396 life, which does fine, but the more life, the better.(unless your a 55 monk)

CASTING:

This usually takes a lot of practice to get it down, ask harrow, took him at least 10 runs on my character to start doing semi-good with it(although his skill setups are usually different then mine).

Exit Port Sledge and head North-Northeast. Stop at about the same location shown in the screenshot.



This is a VERY picky build, if there are any grawl between you and this location, you could most likely dodge past them, but I usually rezone.

Now that you are safely there, cast Edge of Extinction at this location. (more detail on cast location in this pic:)

Make sure that no grawl are entering your aggro, otherwise, rezone.

When you run in, before leaving your spirit, cast Troll Unguent, then start running and hit dodge. Follow the path below, when your Dodge wears off, cast Lightning Reflexes. Continue running to the ledge, when your Lightning Reflexes starts to wear off cast whirling defense. (you should be coming up the final hill) Stop at the top of the hill, and start casting troll unguent, then select a close grawl, and cast Throw Dirt (try to wait untill all the melee grawl are around you). Then cast inferno, and Oath Shot. By this time, you should still have Whirling Defense, so go ahead and recast Troll Unguent. While its casting, renew Whirling Defense, and then throw dirt again to re-blind the melee. Then cast another Inferno, this should either kill them or bring them down very low (more casters = more dmg to the melee). If it does not kill them, do the best you can to wait for Oath Shot to recharge, and repeat the process.

Here is the running path you use, shown in both the minimap and radar:



I have done many successful runs with this method, I started doing them around 2 PM yesterday, and i made 15k in 6 hours, not counting the 5k i spent on the runes, and the time it took to perfect this build the best I could. This is not the most reliable build, but it is still the quickest money-maker build I have done, and it is also pretty fun. The only time this build does not work, is if the healer boss spawns to the left, if your new to it, you will also have trouble with the necro and ranger boss.


Here is a few Screenshots of the stuff gotten with this build in about 10 hours.



That is not counting the 5k for perfecting the build. Or the Superior Divine rune which I sold for 8k.

I got this idea from the great video that was posted(on grawl farming) before the AI-Update. Credit goes to that person (sorry, cant remember the name), Harrow, who ran and power leveled me. And another friend who helped me for 3 days in an attempt to get Oath Shot, even though we had just met each other on the first day.

Well, Have fun and Happy Farming!

Sounds fun, i'll have to try it out

Many a moon  Harrow The Pious on 01/07/06 23:05

Me and Crim worked on this bout a week. Most the cred goes to him for perfecting this build....but lvling a lvl 1 to lvl 20 in 2 days isnt ez.
Im still trying to get thirsty done on my new ranger but meh. Good build and good profit.

  supersayaingoku on 01/08/06 02:05

this is very similar to the other grawl farming using r/n with EOE and MOP but hey ill try out this one aswell as i like the other one

  Feanaro Anwarun on 01/08/06 05:29

id just like to ssy that the grawls have been nerfed and the only drop a shit load of materials but not any great runes anymore

  Harrow The Pious on 01/08/06 07:34

if you read the guide he said he found a sup divine. So no i dont think they have been nerfed

  mwpeck on 01/08/06 16:15

Thanks for all the feedback, i would offer to show anyone who wants how to do the run, but my water cooling unit pump is dead so i can only get on for a few minutes every now and then. Ordered a new one, so i'll be able to show anyone who wants to see, by the end of this week.

  wakka824 on 01/09/06 01:38
 
Hmm... this build is hard to get the hang of, its only worked once for me, and even then, not everything died.

  mwpeck on 01/09/06 07:35

yes, it does take time.....took me a few hours to get it once i got the meat of this down. Few more days and i'll start showing people how to use it.

  Kikuta on 01/10/06 08:05

Fantastic guide!

You are definately right about the amount of time needed for this build... After about an hour of use i have finally made a completely successful run - but unfortunately Grawl aren't the most generous of creatures. To get a decent amount of loot requires a LOT of runs. I have made about 2k cash so far, and about 50 of each possible material (Wood, Tanned Hides, Iron).

Oh well, back to work :)

  mwpeck on 01/12/06 15:40

Finally got a new water cooling unit, if you want to see just how this run is done, PM me here and I'll get in touch with you.

  NecoV on 01/27/06 09:31
 
Very good guide! - Fabolous.
But, what are you going to do with the Crawl Crone's?

  xairliber on 02/17/06 13:34
 
hi, could u maybe show me ? My in game username is Ca Silver Wing ... mind adding me and showing me how ? thanks a bunch .. c u in game

  Oilball on 02/23/06 10:24

cant find oath shot u sure its in iron mines? if so where?

  king_robin on 03/04/06 07:09

Oath shot is there when i ran that mission i found him there. HE IS THERE.
You can also Cap that skill in Ring of fire mission. I know that's pain in the #¤%.

  king_robin on 03/04/06 07:12

and one more thing you can also do this run with necro. Use mark of pain instead for infero.
I have over 500 hp and use 2 masks and 1 sup. BM, minor exp.

  Nibbed on 03/31/06 12:57
 
hmm could u tell me where about the boss was when u found it? becuase i need oath shot(my acc is Nibb It Later)

  Smrt on 04/19/06 06:25
 
I capped Oath Shot right outside of Thunderhead Keep. If you go out of keep and go west just a bit, you will see (if he's up) a lvl 28 Jade Bow who you can cap it from. Easily gotten with hench.

  xairliber on 05/05/06 15:48
 
hi .. does this still work ? if so can anyone show me how to do ? cheers

  nonamethegreat on 05/22/06 07:38
 
what about changing oath shot for SS and change secondary for Necro?


  Blessed Acolyte on 09/24/06 09:19

If you changed Oath shot for SS you wouldnt have inferno, I guess if you put in mark of pain it could work...I like it better the way in the build tho.


  Hatebreeder on 02/10/07 15:51
 
what about taking a ranger/monk and putting symbol of wrath instead of inferno i tried it worked fine :) dunno if i was just lucky...
Absolutely fabulous guide ty so much :)
