Warrior, because you can do it with W/Rt, W/Me (2 ways) and W/E and I think there is a W/N way to do it too.

you cant solo everything in uw,warrior and rt can do smites,graspings and maybee if they are skilled enuf go to chaos planes and kill mesmers,

dual monks can do smites,attatxes,graspings,colds,behemoths,but useless.


ele with sandstorm,taking on smites only..

ranger as echo trapper ye,have no idee what they can farm:P

IW mesmer: attaxes,graspings,2colds

if you gonna farm entire uw,gather a group and do nm and kill the foes that drops ectoes^^..

But echo-trapping solo is unimaginably slow.

Best bang for the buck is VWK W/Rt. Not too terribly long either.

The question i have is if you do it in HM are the drops any better? Is it possible? I have not tried it as of yet in HM.

*and another.

Anyway, the drop rate of ectos in HM are NOT increased but you get better gold drops and tomes etc. From all the forms above I think the only one that can do HM UW is the 600hp/smiter which is a duo run.

@Everyone. I doubt anything can SOLO the whole of the underworld.

btw, the aatxes have more ecto drop rate then the smites?

Are you one of those people that means chamber+ice wastes when you say 'all of uw' ?

Quote:

My 2 cents:

For Entire UW:
~600hp/smiter definetly is best.

For Just Profitable Smite Run:
W/Rit - Safest
E/Mo- Fastest

However, any proffesion can solo the UW. (Yes even paragon i have devolped a build that works quite well with it. Will post later when i have time! ^_^)

There is no profession that can solo the entirety of the UW, except maybe Echo Trap rangers, but they would take way too long to do so.

Pretty much any solo 55 is quicker and also gets the job done :P

To farm everyting in UW it would be easiest to do it in a group if you are new to it.

but yes, they can solo a good deal of UW, although what about the huge trap worms? im not sure a trapper can deal with them.
