I've seen two videos on youtube already of pretty decent (by my standards)

*edit* I think, thanks to matching up the icons to guild wiki, I've deciphered most of the first and second video's skill sets;

Any ideas?

Video 1;

Skills;

8 - Bonetti's Defense
7 - Frenzied Defense
6 - Defensive Stance
5 - Shield Stance
4 - Disciplined Stance
3 - Gladiators Defense
2 - Cyclone Axe
1 - Unholy Feast

7 - Shadow of Fear
6 - Insidious Parasite
5 -Unholy Feast
4 - Feast of Corruption
3 - Defensive Stance
2 - Bonetti's Defense

Both of those builds are bad. The second one is not as bad as the first, but it is still slow. Attributes in the first build are:

Blood Magic: 13(9+1+3)
Axe Mastery: 10
Tactics: 12
I think Soul Reaping was the rest.

I think there are far better alternatives for solo-farming than N/W by making a 55/105 N/Mo with Spiteful Spirit or Spoil Victor. In fact, right here is a great thread detailing that very thing: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10175165

I really don't like the N/W combination, for any reason; W/N, on the other hand, can be quite good, especially solo.

that was quite a poor build. took over a minute to kill a group of trolls. the current "good" troll farming build is the eles at about 6 seconds.

N/W farming builds are sort of limited in a lot of ways because of the general requirement of stances for survival. it's practically impossible to effectively farm in HM with them (HM is really the only way to farm, NM trolls is really a waste of time and effort.) 55/105 necros are the farming necros right now. they can destroy lots of things in HM, and they're safer than the N/W.

if, however, you're hell bent on farming with a N/W, there's this build here:

max blood
max tactics
rest in death

[skill]Riposte[/skill][skill]Deadly Riposte[/skill][skill]"Watch Yourself!"[/skill][skill]Bonetti's Defense[/skill][skill]Unholy Feast[/skill][skill]Blood Renewal[/skill][skill]Life Siphon[/skill][skill]Aura of the Lich[/skill]

what it lacks in speed, it makes up for in versatility. it can farm minos, trolls, jade armors, and i think it can kill Hulking Stone Elementals in HM. it works, but 55s are a whole lot better.
