Most effective way to solo UW?

Hey, I've been browsing the forums for this quite a while now, but still not sure of the answer :s

What's, in your opinion, the single most effective way to solo UW?

Thank you in advance

Don't die.


HAR. I'M SO FUNNY.

Honestly, I'd think the Terratank Elementalist build is probably still the most effective soloing method, when you are going for time spent compared to the amount of content cleared (Smite runs only take a few minutes, but that's just about all you can do).

I agree that the Stoneflesh/Sandstorm build is fastest at clearing the smites. TheG rasping Darknesses is a pian because they interrupt 1/4s spells with Distracting Blow and despite using Sympathetic Visage, they still have plenty of energy to spam interrupts. Anets little dig at farmers I believe.

The other efficient ways of doing this are mostly duo builds but have a broader killing spectrum than just Smite Crawlers.

In my experience the W/Rt Vengeful build is fastest at clearing the smites/graspings. Never encountered a solo build which can clear the entire UW.

Vengeful build:

[card]Vengeful Was Khanhei[/card][card]Vengeful Weapon[/card][card]"For Great Justice!"[/card][card]Bonetti's Defense[/card][card]Dolyak Signet[/card][card]Generous Was Tsungrai[/card][card]Sprint[/card][card]Enraging Charge[/card]

If you're looking for speed, I suggest you use the Terra tank, but if you want a higher chance of surviving, then use the W/Rt VwK build, or the W/Me build Dont feel no pain posted. These aren't the only builds of course, there are several other builds that are effective.

Terra Tank
W/Rt VwK Build
Dont feel no pain's Build

However, if you're looking to clear all of the UW or most of, the only way (Unless you think of your own build, or get it off someone who has it) is to go in groups with friends and Guild mates.

EDIT:Totally forgot about this!
RezDogg's 330HP Vengeful Spirit Bonder!
Although it's a little bit difficult to use, and hard to deal with the Grasps' Skull Crack and the Dazed condition, you can clear all the Aatxes, Grasps, and Smites, in Hard Mode. If you're only going to the UW for Ectos however, I suggest you use one of the Normal Mode builds since Materials are exempt from loot scaling and all that.

In My honest opinion Dont Feel No Pain's W/Me Build works wonders and is the most effective way to farm the UW. If you would like a little more leeway and saftey, Try the w/rt VwK build, its safer but much slower.

Ritualist are better than ele

for uw i like the rit/w build with glad's defense and a normal 55hp ss necro.
The rt/w is very fast for smiterrun and the necro can clear aatxes and smites very fast.
I haven't tried the new w/me build, which seems also very fast

Ele is fastest, if you can do it right. VwK warrior is the safest in my experience, and all though I don't have one, the 330 Rt/Mo build that was posted earlier is supposed to be really good.

Can those ele builds also solo this in Hardmode, or is this what you are talking about?
