Anyone run into the vermin? Y'know, those lvl 18 mobs that stack like 8 degen on you? They drop some pretty pissy loot, but you can atleast farm gold off em (approx 2p a run).

First the build;
Sprint
Tiger stance (or some frenzy variant)
Sun and Moon slash
100 blades (yeh, go get prophesies u factions only lewsarz~)
Dolyak sig
Bionetti's Def
Vig spirit
Live vicariously

1. Leave via Senji's corner (northwest exit)
2. Keep to the west, and just kill all the vermin in the darker area on the map.

The build works if you cast live vic before the fight, run in, 100 blades the crowd of them, dolyak, vig spirit, yaddada if you cant figure it out then go farm trolls.

And I also use this to solo Daggers of Xueko guy...

Build is relative to Warrior because of dolyak signet, oh dear... must be same as party support (has monk skills) and must be a ritualist because i found another thread regarding vermin but killing them with ritualist...

So yea, this thread is useless because its for Ri/Mo/W (the dreaded three class combination that noone can ever get! because of evil Anet nerf).

anyways nubs. I get about 70k a day from just screwwing around in there and I fought with myself when deciding whether or not to share this. Anyways, guess Imma just come here to steal your secrets.

btw,
ever wanna solo outside unwaking waters and farm seaspray dragons?

Nice work Faebaul. I've been doing this for a while and found this build to work well. I use 100 al armor, Have 13 strength, 16 Tacts, and 9 Sword. Heal Sig, Dolyak, Glads Defense, Deadly Riposte, Riposte, I Will Survive, and the other 2 are just fillers imo. So this can be done with W/X only. As for Salt Sprays, 55 ftw

Edit: Wanted to say that Plague Sending fit's in very well with this build if you go W/N

Here's my build for sharptongue, also good for ghial.
Its axe based so offers an alternative.
Healing 10
Strength 15
Axe 11

Mending
Live Vicariously
Warriors Endurance [E]
Cyclone Axe
Dismember
Penetrating Blow
Sprint
Doylak's Signet

It's a pretty simple setup with desired effects.
Cast Mending then wait for energy and cast Live Vicariously run like a Leeroy straight into the vermin, Doylak Signet then Warriors endurance, Cyclone Axe Dismember, Penetrating Blow..keep repeating process while keeping an eye on doylak's. It's good for energy management and halfway good for damage. Helps if you got a good shield. I just use a Bulwark as I'm using stances with strength.
For Ghial same process but have to be more cautious about energy management. So theres 2 Bosses for you in the same area, I would take a screenshot of the route I take but I'm too lazy.
Good Luck all.

I've tried this with a few different builds (SoJ, Glads etc) but I find the following the fastest... Merch->Kill all->Merch = 4.5 mins = 2p, making almost as good as the old griffon run (3.5mins = 2p).

Heal9
Axe 16
Tact 6
Str - The Rest

Triple Chop
Cyclone Axe
Executioners
Penetrating Blow
Penetrating Chop
Dolyaks
Vigorous Spirit
Balanced Stance

Use of the skills is pretty obvious appart from balanced stance... When you are gathering the groups together, if you don't have this, they will used knock downs which prevent you from getting them all at once.

Kill them in 3 bunches
1) The 4 groups that surround the square
2) The boss and all his cronies (5-6 groups) just over the bridge
3) The 3 groups in the square to the north.
Its important to agro all the monsters in a "bunch" before hitting dolyaks because if you wait for them to patrol into you, it will seriously hamper your kill speed.

With a zealous axe, each cyclone and tripple chop will give you 200-300hp and 15-20 energy, so you should be in no danger of running out of any. The 3 adrenaline skills are to kill the boss at the same speed as the others, but they can be used in the non boss groups too (cyclone, Exec, tab, pene, tab, pene, tab, cyclone, Exec, etc)

I did the run with 100 blade but honestly find triple chop+cyclone more to my liking on vermin farming

you just have to use Gladiators defence [E]
deals around 30 damage, and you wont get hit by attacks
and with cyclone axe, they dead in a sec

Balanced Stance Nice build, but I changed Balanced Stance with Balthazars spirit. I ran out of ernergy when I tested your build. Balthazars sprit keeps my energy full and the adrealine attacks (Executioners, Penetrating Blow, Penetrating Chop) recharge faster. I also prefer using Gladiators defence, and not Triple Chop. But i guess Triple Chop also works good.
Really easy to farm, got my daggers 1st try.
I have a video of this, so if anyone wants/needs to see it, just ask

6] Sliver Armour
7] Glyph of Elemental Power
8] Healing Signet

Earth = 12
Strength = 10 (6+1+3)
Tactics = 14 (11+3)

Ideally you would use a Rajaazan's Fervor or similar weapon (+5 energy, enchants last 20% longer)

Basically, round up all the Vermin you can using Balanced Stance, Hit Doylak, Hit Glyph, Hit Sliver Armour, Hit Gladiators Defence, after GD runs out Hit Whirlwind followed by "On Your Knees", then GD, Heal when needed but only when Doylak is up.

I'll just post my build, and you can do with it what you will.

Axe = 14 (12+1+1)
Strength = 11 (10+1)
Healing = 8

Cyclone Axe
Triple Chop
Tiger Stance (keeps the healing more continuous to fight degen)
Sprint
Dolyak Sig
Live Vicariously
Balthazar's Spirit
Vigorous Spirit

It works pretty good. Believe it or not, you really don't need Mending, LV and Vigorous works just fine. Lotsa runs, real quick runs, too. It works.

I use:
I will survive
Triple chop {E}
Cyclone axe
Executioner's strike
Live Vicariously
Vigorous spirit
Dolyak
Balthazar's spirit

Energy is never an issue (always maxed), and you just spam triple chop and cyclone to heal. The other 2 attack skills bring down the Assassin boss faster, and I will survive is for a health boost while dolak is down, since you will have at least 2 conditions on you at all times. I use a shield that is +45 while enchanted and an axe that has +20% longer enchantment and/or health mod.

The only farming spot that I do in Cantha at the moment, its working pretty good. At first I experimented with a few of my own builds (im that kind of "do your own builds" guy), but they didnt work too well.

Then I browsed through this thread (and multiple others), and got a few ideas and now im using a slightly modified version of "cellardweller"'s build.

Works great, very fast, reliable farm. No more waiting for that single IDS, or perfect drop. Thanks everyone who contributed to this thread!

Unable to understand why people run 6-8+ in Healing for a Cyclone/Triple Chop build.

Build I use ~

Axe: 16
Str: 15 (2nd sup rune. use 13 if you dislike the extra -75 Health)
Healing 2-3

1. Triple Chop {E}
2. Cyclone Axe
3. Executioner's Strike
4. Tiger Stance (sub for Furious Axe if desired)
5. Dolyak Signet
6. Balthazar's Spirit (Energy-gain)
7. Vigorous Spirit
8. Live Vicariously

Vampiric Axe.
-2-2 Shield helps.

Very fast, most are dead before the first Dolyak ends. Healing is never a problem.
