ok so i wanted to farm those new greens and was wayyy too lazy to change my 2nd back to wamo, so i decided to solo it w/ my w/n.. and let me tell ya it was fun as hell!

the build
death:5
str:9+1
swrd:10
tactic:9+1

skills:
sever artery,galrath/silverwing,riposte,d. riposte,plague touch,heal sig,doylack,tainted flesh

armor: any max will do... i chose berzerkers w/ sup absorb

the battle planyour basic riposte build)
exit outa ventaris and head toward the falls.
agro every group you see and cast TF on trolls and watch them die
when those spider things poison you use plague touch one em to get it off
continue on and go kill that boss.. very easy build and farm spot.. considering most foes are lvl18 if you find that you drop hp too fast cast doyalack and you will be fine

drops: 2k-20k(depends how much you wana sell totem axe for)

good luck and have fun
p.s my atr. might be off a little (sry dont have GW open at this time) but atr should be around basic.

yes. The latest patch (June 15) introduced two green items in the Falls area. Apparently they're easy to farm, although I haven't tried yet

I did it solo with my wammo and smashed the whole area. Found a totem axe straight away too

It seems that only one drops per run though. You have to rezone to get another it seems.

I tried earlier and got 2 in one run. I used a W/Mo build with a bad skill set-up but i still managed it

For faster killing power, pump swords to 16. The only /N skill needed is plague touch (spiders, skale). I 2-manned it with a guildie on Sunday - 3 axes and a fan for him, naught for me (but he was nice enough to hand over the fan).

I suggest you bring charge/sprint. There's no need to fight a single spider in this run. Just watch out for the oak-things sucking away all your energy on the way by - hit sprint before you reach them.

can someone post the skills that they used to solo this place? How do u deal with the wind riders? I tried to pull them but they are always in a pack of four which means it very hard to solo them.

if its the degens you worry about take a wamo build and take heal breeze w/ heal:8


and as for using 16swrd i use tainted fleash 4 the trolls who use troll ungent...

and i also kill every thing and anything on sight even the warthogs..... so i get around 2-3k drops b4 i even get the axe

Nobody said you had to fight every mob at once. Run in, kill a wind rider, run away and heal, rinse, repeat. =)

I used a similar build to the OP's last night and I cleared the place in about an hour.

How do you get past spiders with that build? And how do you deal with the Life Pods?

This is the EASIEST green farm out there (well...mabey next to Shreder's)
I have a basic Wamo build and can kill eveything in about 30 mins.....i haven't gone down there once and got nothing. I always come out with atleast 2 Totem Axes and heaps of dyes, purples, golds++++ Average about 25k per run (thats selling the axes and gold pick-ups etc)

I use:
Sever Artery
Gash
Final Thrust
Bonneti's Def
Heal Sig
Auspicious Parry {Elite} i'll explain why bellow. (FTW)
^For 10 seconds The next attack against you is blocked and you gain 4 adenaline

Sprint
Mending

Healing Prayers 8
Strength 10
Swords 11
Tactics 7 or 8+3+1

*Side Note*
I like Auspicious Parry, it charges in one strike of adrenaline and keeps your attacking skills charged almost always.....if you use it constantly you never run out of adrenaline.

The run through reed bog is a cinch. Keep mending on for thr run. Once you get to the Redwood Sheps and the Maaguma Spiders, use sprint BEFORE you agro the Redwoods (they use dibilitating shot that drains 10 nrg) find an open spot, heal sig to recoup.
Once your past the redwoods and spiders, just sprint past the trolls, make your way to the first Behemoth (if there are trolls and jungle skales there, agro them seperately and kill all of the groups) Make sure your killing the skales, they drop dyes, gold, purples, gold items and more. But if you agro the life pods....just sprint away and loose them then agro the group you want (a Longbow works well for this).
When the area is cleared and the Behemoth is the only thing left, agro it and the life pods will pop up....attack them first....auspicious, sever, gash, auspicious, final thrust, auspicious.......repeat until all of the life pods are dead. As soon as the pods are gone....the behemoth is a breeze....same tactics as the pods, pick up your loot and move to the next one.
I like to clear th area of ALL enemys (other than the trolls on the run in) I kill ever skale I can find, theres even a skale boss in the area too.

Now, when you reach the wind riders, they can be fun, you can't just run in, wack away and hope they die.....you have to use your head. Pull a group away from a crowd to an empty area and kill one or two at a time using the same tactics....DON'T USE HEALING SIG, THEY USE CRY OF FRUSTRATION THAT CANCELS IT. Kill one or two sprint away, heal sig until full, sprint back in, kill one or two....rinse and repeat until you demolish them all.
There is a wind rider boss....I just sprint past and not even worry about him.

You should have the area cleared in under an hour and come out with some nice loot. If you die...you rez at the entrance to reed bog, run into reed bog, and back into the farming area again, and the behemoths you killed are back again. When you get good at the build, it takes about a half hour and the area is cleared.

I hope this helps to clarify some questions anyone had. This is an EASY build and ANYONE can do it. Good luck and happy farming to all.

TY to the OP for this thread.
