Hi, I'm new to farming with a warrior (since griffons XD), I get past the grasps at the start alright, but when I try to run to the smites I get owned by the aatxes on the way.

I tried using physical resistance when running but I still get killed. What I haven't done is use my +7 sword but will that really help? basic running section to all uw farmers who do smites only, the +7 sword wont do much, i usualy use phys res to just get close enough to sprint away, its not safe, but it saves waiting, if your having a hard time, just wait for a gap and speak through mabye.

only way is to try it once or twice and see if you think you can do it. maybe get somebody to give you a demo run of it to show you what it's like (if the video isnt enough) Just curious didn't want to get my hopes up....i can't watch youtube from work so will have to wait till i get home. I do have a new suit of armor though that has no runes/insig's on it so at least that part is covered and I can prolly steal most of the armor mods from my heros...I am so broke it ain't even funny like 150k 9 ecto 30 diamonds and that is it. Wish they would revert that effing loot scale already!!

my only problem is running through the aatxes to the smites. i wait till the last possible time to use enraging but it still runs out and i either barely escape or i die.. other than that its really fast. hmmm thats where all of us get trouble, my problem is lag = rubberband... fail...

but yeah practice ftw, the more you do it, the less fails

well your richer than me and i posted the build XDDDDDDD LOL...how many sets FoW you got though? I got 0

LOL...how many sets FoW you got though? I got 0 none ^^ , i dont like the fow sets (except necro and monk) (excuses for not having it) but yeah, i like my 15k sets, i'll stick with those, i also dont grind farm, I joy farm (it does exsist), and i get bored too easy, so i just post the builds and let others get rich on them ^^

after clearing out all of the graspings, i usually wait on the stairs and observe the aatxe and grasping patrols in the next room.



when the grasping group gets to where it is on the screenshot, and starts to move away i run towards the aatxes in the chamber, when they start to move towards me i hit sprint and run past them all the way through to the mouth of the next room



i dont stop to wait, or else the grasping patrol will catch up to me.
i make my way towards the smites, and when the 2 aatxes in the chamber get close to me, i throw up physical resistance. this usually keeps me relatively safe until sprint recharges



when the other 2 aatxes come into range, i generally circle around them so that they're all behind me when heading towards the stairs. then i hit sprint and leave them all behind.



if all goes well, the aatxes should break aggro and continue patrolling.




the most important part is to be calm about it. if you start getting nervous or try to cut anymore corners, you're more likely to get stuck and/or mess up.
if something does happen to go wrong, you can try to sprint back into the starting chamber and hide behind the ghosts and try again.

oh and also, i prefer sprint to enraging charge. i manage without those extra strikes of adrenaline, and that extra second of having a speed boost makes the runs a bit easier too.

happy hunting.

but to your pposts above, mabye you need to circle your crops, that what i do =) can you elaborate on this please? im not ahuge farmer, so when i do it, its in small bursts, then i continue on to do other things, like missions, vanquishing ect.. then maybe go back to it later that day, or the next. depends on my mood.

but if its like try farming something i do gave good lkuck with, there is none.. ive tried em all, never got anything good from any of them.. i tried ele sword farming with e/a for 2 months, doin 2-5 runs per day, with other things inbetween. never got one.. even from the chest drops.

tried chest running, spent over 30k on keys/picks, and i got like 20+ purple items, and the rest were craptastic golds, lame skins, crap mods, got a dragonsbreth wand, r13, hsr 7%.. thats the best ive gotten from that experiance.

ive tried gren farming. did over 80 runs killing the queen in the crystal desert, only got one..(monk prot staff) on the last run.. with absolutely no golds from that experiance...

also attempted sup rune farming, outside ofbergen hot springs. that was a big hoax, besxt thing i got from that was a sup absorption rune.

oh, i forgot the tome farm, did over 400 hm boss farms for elite tomes.. mainly byzzar, for an elite monk tome. got a few dozen of his craptacular green offhands, some uw/fow scrolls, and merch food.. never once got an elite tome..

maybe im just not persistent enough, or my luck is just that. gw hates me, and ill have to come to terms with this and complain to anet..they have all the records, maybe they can give me some sorta consulation prize for trying...
