Works like a charm for me, and I don't see the need to make it any more difficult than that.
QFT, you only need 3 skills to totem axe farm, that leaves 5 slots for anything you like to speed it up.
Wind Riders do poor wand damage and -5 degen with [[conjure phantasm], the worst thing they do to you is [[cry of frustration], so if you are not using skills then they won't be hurting you much. Any kind of preparation for extra damage will kill them fast enough and skills like [[feel no pain] will cancel most of their damage. I use [[Poison Arrow] and [[Kindle Arrows], Also [[vampirism] works well. You can Troll up against them very easily just by counting them, spam [[Poison Arrow] to sucker their [[cry of frustration] off them and then [[troll unguent] up. Only groups of 5+ should give you a problem, and even then all you have to do is hit and run, the bosses are easy too.
But why bother, just keep runnning past them (don't try and run past the ele bosses, Vizz is okay though), so what if there is the odd behemoth you can't get to? You can get most with running and use of elevation+flat bow. At the end of the run, just die and re-zone after the rez. You should be able to get 6-8 axes per hour.
