straight fire
key skills meteor storm and aura of restoration..
the rest are flexible but i reccommend lots of area of effect spells.

my ettin build is

flare
fireball
rodgorts invocation
meteor storm
phenix
inferno
flame burst
aura of restoration

cast aura before aggro. aggro and immediately cast meteor storm then use the other spells.

should be able to take them 6 at atime with this build with practice and positioning... i can anyway.

I use a straight Ether Renewal/Earth Magic build, except that Rust speeds up the kill. I leave from Beetletun and use Stone Daggers to kill the Caromi Tengu Wilds.

Other people use a Mist Form build. It's possible that would work better with Armor of Mist and a different starting town, running around trouble rather than fighting through it.

I use pure water, Ice Spear/Frozen burst/Rust/Mist Form as main, Armor of Mist for running, Water Attunement for blah, and the other slots up to you i guess.

Rust in Peace... if its not here its on another of the core fansites

Ettins use heal signets a lot, it's a water build, rust makes their sigs slow...
They go down quickly.

Armor of Mist for running when needed, use cover enchant when running through Tengu Wilds

Gets ya started

edit - oh yeah someone got at it above, also sure Earth should work well too
[water obviously has the nice mist form option too to soak it up, if needed]

I know you can take out the IW team with a similar skillset, I wonder how it would do vs lvl 15 ettins.

I'd say the fastest build would be using Rust without a doubt, double the damage for 6 seconds beats area of effect that they'll probably just run and heal from.

Actually, Mr. Frosty is a great Obsidian Flesh build for farming Ice Imps.

actually they dont run from my build becuase A: i use spells that dont cause them to scatter and B: they are dead before they can get out of the meteor shower anyway.

ive killed a group of 6 ettins in ~12seconds with the fire build i posted. if your rust build can manage the same then i humbly admit that i am wrong








admittedly the downside of my build is that it relies on metero shower and its knockdowns so you have to wait between fights for it to recharge
