Here is an alternative W/Mo for soloing pretty much anything in the southern shiverpeaks. It was inspired by the IDS build.
Smiting: 6
Protection: 7
Strength: 9+3+1
Axe: 8+1
Tactics: 10+1
Equip: Mostly Platemail armor. Any max fire dmg weapon will do, and a +45hp while enchanted and -2 dmg while enchanted shield is needed. Also, use a sup rune of absortion to help.
This build uses Axe skills, but a sword could work fine as well (with riposte and stuff).
[skill]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill] [skill]Shield of Regeneration[/skill] [skill]Dolyak Signet[/skill] [skill]"Watch Yourself!"[/skill] [skill]Penetrating Blow[/skill] [skill]Executioner's Strike[/skill] [skill]Desperation Blow[/skill] [skill]Sprint[/skill]
The idea is that you cast Balthazar's Spirit, then run into a mob of whatever, (Averica, Ice Seige Golems, Imps,Pinesouls... etc) and cast Dolyak, then SoR and "Watch Yourself". You want to keep those skills up at all times. Also, you use your attack skills when available. This build is not fully effective unless taking on a larger group (about 5-10 enemies).
This build takes down enemies faster than some other builds, and is better at keeping you alive. You can post any suggestions to improve upon it as well.

Just wondering...why the peice of knights?
ecthgow
because it gives you -3 physical dmg.
Captain Arne Is PRO
-3 physical damage from knights is no longer global, iirc..

Somebody's been sleeping under a rock for the past millenium. Yeah, knight's is no longer a global effect, it's a good choice for a switch to farm melee enemies.
