i dont know much about ss 55, i know that its ss with the standard 55 survival skills, but id say try with insidous parasite(i think thats what its called) if you have room for a varient without taking out ss. all i can say

The best way I've found to kill the Troll bosses is to put SS on a few Trolls and IP on the boss. You almost have to kill the boss before all of the other Trolls are dead.

I haven't found any builds, but I wanted to make a Cyclone Axe/Vigorous Spirit Warrior/Monk. Does anyone know a good build?
Balthazar's Spirit, Essence Bond, Vigorous Spirit, Cyclone Axe, and Triple Chop with Wing's Axe and some healing spells was the way I was going to go.

Balth's and essence aren't really needed. Adding [dismember] would be nice for the deep wound and [disrupting chop] for an interrupt. As a heal,[Lion's comfort] would suffice. All warrior bars should have an IAS. [Frenzy] and [Rush] as a cancel stance for PvP or [flail] for PvE

NO! don't go Mo. Other classes such as E offer better skills. The best skill I can think of is [mending touch] but this isn't even needed.

[eviscerate] is best but [triple chop] and [cleave] are also decent.

[Shock] and [conjure lightning] is for high damage.

[flail] is best IAS in PvE.

If you MUST have a heal [lion's comfort] is pretty good. Don't even think about [healing signet].

Sundering > shocking axe/sword. How could you say healing spells on a warrior is ftl?! Mending and healing breeze will counter degen and orison will make you imba!

I was thinking of a warrior that could just walk into a group and start spinning until everything was dead. I figured healing skills would be necessary?

1. Everyone will hate you for drawing mobs that your team can't handle.
2. You are a dead man.
3. Your new name is Retard Wammo no matter what your real name is.

Hi all,

i got some problems with my solo uw farm builds

The first build my Ancestor's Visage always get interrupted with the graspings en sometimes the graspings even kill me! and when i am with the smites i die slowly --> i got to less energy
but i like the avatar of balthazar for running

The second one energy is fine with this build and graspings are no problem, sometimes they do when i get interrupted (again), they work with the smites sometimes but when they're more then 3 i die again slowly!!!

Untested one you guys think this wil work?

Give me some tips or post your solo build dervish build here for uw

Thank You Very Much!!!

On ur first build, all u have to do is survive for 3-5 seconds and let graspings use their interrupt, then after using visage, they wont have enough energy to interrupt again. So just try waiting 3-5 seconds for them to use their interrupt, then begin.

The Jsp I guess you only want to farm smites with those builds.....btw a question: how do you do to evade aatxe in main chamber??? when u got to kill graspings they could see you if any nightmare spawns...not kidding: while i farm aatxe sometimes they see me even if not in range cos a nightmare spawns and the patrol aatxe come to me....this is not a big problem even if the nightmare strips me cos i run back the spirit and the aatxe stop, so i got the time to kill the nightmare with the bow (he has 1/4 health and even with 0 marksmanship i do him 7/8dmg = 3 hits is dead) then i can recast enchants and kill aaxte
Well...i will try out this build and i will say what's the result...i always solo farm UW with my personal 130hp build, so i suppose i got a bit experience in it......the only problem are nightmares, as they may spawn even 2 at once but i learnt how to evade them quite fastly....but the worste ever are aatxe interrupting casting most of all [mystic regeneration] and sometimes [protective spirit]
If they interrupt regeneration i simply stop attacking and switch to my shield +45hp^enchant and begin flying back so get less attack and have the time to let regen recharge (if you don't get too many attacks u will recast mystic regen with 30/40 hp, as it recharge in 12 secs). If they interrupt prot. spirit no problem, u are supposed to cast it evey 10/12 secs and not when it's really ending, so you will have it for another 4/5 secs and it recharge right in 5 secs so if u get interrupted you won't die (yesterday i remained like 1/4 sec without prot spirit cos of interruption but in the interval i casted another time ) So i learned to cast magics while they are actually attacking so they cannot also interrupt me: you see, the more u try, the more u learn how they do use their build and also which skills to use at the proper time.

Another little problem: ectos??? dropped 2 ectos in like 20/22 runs...that made me lose like 10k fee

Another little problem in killing graspings: they not only interrupt magics, but also attacks...so with those builds if you miss a victorious sweep u begin dying slowly.....

Hello- I've searched around the forum and read lots of threads pertaining to the N/Mo 55 solo build, but could not find my answer, so thought I'd create a new post relating specifically to interrupts and energy drain, which is my problem, atm.

This is the build I am using: (how do I post skills here so that they show up as images, btw, I could not find something explaining that?)

http://www.pvxwiki.com/wiki/Build:N/...SS_Necromancer

I'm new to farming in general and have just been to the UW recently (by myself) for the first time. I can't get past the main spawn area (lol) simply because of the grasping darkness after accepting that first quest. The guide does say that the build should be able to solo, so I have no idea what I should be doing to get past them? Is it possible? I've gone back with a few variations for Insidious Parasite and Vigorous Spirit, but still die very easily from the GD. The suggested skills I've seen used to manage them seem to be Mesmer, which, obviously, I'm not. Any ideas or help? Thanks!

You should try the basics with 55 farming before hitting the UW. The UW is difficult because of dying nightmares and their rending as well as large amounts of interuppts

Well I have the hang of it I think, I've done the Hydras in Skyward Reach and Avicaras and Trolls on HM in Talus Chute. In the UW, I just go slowly until I catch a Dying Nightmare, and use PS and Healing Breeze until it is dead. I've died a few times when they pop up with an Aatxe though. But yes, the interrupts are my issue, hence the post.

It takes 2 seconds to cast and the grasping darknesses interrupt and drain all my energy quickly, so wouldn't it make more sense to cast it as you aggro them so you have a better chance of doing some damage?

I know its a different solo build entirely, but if E-Denial is bothering you that much, how about using the [[Spoil Victor] 55 solo with [[Angorodon's Gaze]?

Euhm the 130 (i have that btw) isn't made for uw it's almost inpossible with the nights en when you kill them with bow the aaxtes already killed you (those are my experiences)

and the first build his skills: Ancestor's Visage + Sympathetic Visage will do its work if not interrupted the graspings will lose energy and adre so they cant interrupt! and i've learnd in this topic that you got to fight a bit so they interrupt your attacks and not your enchants!

btw my english isn't good

In order for him to get his Extra energy from Angorodon's gaze he would need to suffer from a condition.
