Hi there,

I've seen a lot of builds here but there are also a lot (almost) the same so i decided to make a list of places/monsters we can farm and places/monsters wich we can't farm..YET. Also i've removed some nerfed places like the griffons and minatours. I'll make a difference between places wich we can farm and places wich we can solo
S = Soloable
F = Farmable (2-5 man team)

*NOTE: THIS LIST IS FOR TYRIA ONLY*

Places // Monsters we can farm:

Maguuma Jungle.
The Falls S F

Kryta.
Sanctum Cay S F
Titans S F
Ettins S F

Crystal Dessert.
Hydras S F
Sand Wurms S F
Elonas Reach S F
Thirsty River S F
The Dragon's Lair S F

Southern Shiverpeaks.
Lornars Pass S F
Trolls outside Droknars S F
Icy Dragon Sword S F
Grenths Footprint S F
Witmans Folly S F
Dreadnoughts Drift S F
Snake Dance S F
Mineral Springs S F
Ice Caves of Sorrow S F
Talus Chute S F
Ice Dome S F
Iron Mines of Moladune S F


Fire Islands.
Perdition Rock S F
Ring of Fire S F

UW//FoW//SF
UW Aataxes and Smites S F
FoW Forest S F
FoW Beach S F
Sorrows Furnace S F

Places // Monsters we can't solo yet:

Tomb of the Primeval Kings F
Ice Floe F (Ice Imps & Mursaat groups without monks)
Thunderhead Keap F
Majesty's Rest F
All other places/monsters wich are not in the list.

Leave links and suggestions from places and monsters which aren't in the list.
Enjoy!

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure there aren't any Ettins in the Crystal Desert.

i've tried something similar. trust me. its not worth the time. just keeping up with monk threads was hard enough for me. dealing with all professions will be difficult.

If you're going to do this I would suggest you put in the title of each which profession the links link to as it would be easier to read.


well, if you're still up to the challenge good luck and hope you prove me wrong.

As far as I can see : Ice Dome and Dreadnought's Drift in the southern shiverpeaks are unsoloable.

Heh, tried soloing Dragon's Lair a while ago, can't find the thread anymore. IIRC, I used:

W/N

Grenth's Balance (E)
Flurry
Disrupting Chop
Penetrating Blow
Healing Signet
Plague Touch
Watch Yourself
Dolyak Signet

I died at the Elementals as well - their spike caught me off guard and so I died rather quickly. Soloing there is so painfully slow I can't be bothered to do it all again, so there's my build.

Watch Yourself and Flurry *technically* aren't needed, so switch those skills out if you have some ideas for improvement.

Two places I'd like to see soloed by a Warrior is Mineral Springs and Ice Floe, any takers?

to the OP: Farming doesnt mean soloing. Ive seen screenshots of 3/4 man TopK, 5 man Ice Dome, and if lambda can get to the ele boss solo, Maybe a 2-3 man team can beat it.

i think it's much easyer with a monk (spirit bond build), tho the mesmers r a pain in the ass
and i cant find a skill that blocks their interupts...

i'd like to take out that bunch of mursaat out so very much

gl finding a warrior build guys

gl finding a warrior build guys I also dont think that a spirit bond build would work..I'm not known with that build but i think the heavy degen from Life Transfer from the Necromancers and the Spectral Agony from the other mursaat will kill you. Also the interupts are a pain in the ass. But i'm not sure, so if anyone has a screenshot from him/her soloing Ice Floe with a spirit bond build, please post it

Can one warrior take Ice Imps, Jade Armors, Jade Bows, Mursaat Elementalists, Mursaat Mesmers, Mursaat Monks, Mursaat Necromancers and Azure Shadows? If you can pull this off, I'll give you 10 cookies and half a glass of milk. I can do these...without modifying my W/MO solo build: Ice Imps, Jade Armors, Jade Bows, Mursaat Elementalists, Azure Shadows...I farm in Ice Flow sometimes, but there are much more profitable areas that I spend my time in.
