Well just completed Prophecies on my W/Mo and so I went out to try some HM farming. I used the triple chop farming build from pvxwiki and when I tried out minotaurs outside ice tooth cave it wasn't bad, but it wasn't that quick and I made like 2k in like 25 mins. I am new to farming so I am sure if I was better it may have been quicker and also if more lucky it could have dropped something nice but I was wondering if there is any Warrior farming build that can be used like the triple chop farmer to farm like normal melee monsters. I mean like I know W/Rt can be used to do UW (when I used to play like 1.5 years ago it was always used, dunno about now) but could like that be used in something else, like use VwK to farm normal areas?

Use the VwK build to farm Luxon assassins during the Halcyon job quest in HM. Tons of runes and some weapons along with at least 1 chest every run.

I mostly use the HM stone elementals farm outside sardelac sanctum. It takes like 10 min and you get ok loot. Some times a chest but very rarely.

What build are you using for the stone elementals? I tried it for a bit but got just rubbish 5g items from them...

W/Rt:
[Vengeful was Khanei][Vengeful Weapon][Bonetti's Defense][Dolyak Signet][Signet of Stamina][Enraging Charge][optional][optional]
should do it.

EDIT: It says you're in HM in the OP but the information you provided afterwards contradicts it. You should be getting items woth 50g+ like you would in any high-end area.

If you need other builds, they're in the sticky.

On te subject of VwK W/Rt Smites I found a new skill thats works very well in my optional slot. Snow Storm [PvE Skill], I'm only rank 5 but it works very well, combine with VwK and you are doing insane damage, speeds up runs by far.
The smites sometimes will scatter slightly but its not an issue. You can use it to kill the graspings too although you will need some patience with the timing.

Anyway here is the build I run :

Vwk
Venegful weapon
Bonetti's defence
"To the Limit!"
Dolyak signet
Sprint
Signet of Stamina
Snow Storm

Rough attributes:
restoration - 12
strength - 12
tactics - 8

Anyway, smites are the way to go in my opinion.
