Which build are you using? What's killing you? What are your weapons / shield / armor? Your question is more wide open than a 2 dolla crack ho.

Saw a bad trend today in the auctions. Seller posted 5 shells with no reserve. Sold them for about 3300 gold. I tried to bid them up but wasn't going to pay retail for something that I can farm.
I'm with Kvndoom. Let's keep the price at 1000 gold. Anyone benefiting from these builds, please don't dump cheap shells on the marketplace.

Quick question, what's the Worms' Elemental Resistance like? Been a good while since I fought any and am wondering if it would be worth investing in another sword for the job. And farming the desert seems a bit more entertaining than the bloody IDS runs, easy but you spend all day running to and fro and not enough time punching things

Wurms have a slimiar AL vs elements as thier AL vs physical. Very high. Thats why most builds here use armor ignoring attacks, and/or repeatedly apply conditions.
Knight of Honor
i got a question do wurms only appear by the dunes mission place or are some inthe arid sea and got to say i like the first build kvndoom the best got 3shells in a row like 2 min ago i tried the w/mes but to much upkeep for and not enough energy
Knight of Honor
i got to say im loving this build kill fairly quick like 1-2 min to kill one and this is the product of just 4 runs and man 3 wurms at once is not fun really hard

But I like to make Warrior builds, because Etterwyn will always be my fave.
Is there a trick for those giants with this warrior build? or are they monk exclusive?

Ive got the Enchanted bit done now ok. I was just doing a Dunes run killing one wurm here one wurm there and then wam! Two wurms pop up... So on goes Doylak and Whatch Yourself to soften the blows... Or so I thought. I tryed Glads Def but they still broke through that! I got owned...
What do you guys use as a build to kill both wurms?

Even if you do get 20 shells in a hard days work.... or lets even say you have an outstanding day and get 30..... thats only 20-30k per day... I can make that per Hour solo-farming with my necro.... either in uw, fow, oro, griffins, hydras, or even rune farming I average more than that... and if you just prefer farming with your tank... i still make more farming ettins, in SF, or IDS farming...
I dunno why everyone likes to farm these.... only time i farmed them was to get 5 for a shield i wanted... otherwise.. you can make alot more money in other ways.... don't get me wrong... its a very nice build, just not the best way to make money...
Oh and if you really are persistent on farming these things, instead of selling them for 1k each... get Crimpson Carapiece shield from collecter, takes 5 shells, thats 5k... and i have been able to sell them between 5-10k.... possible to make more of a profit at least

No need to bump a farming post. All of the good ones are in the Important Warrior post sticky. The reason it dropped was not due to it suffering from popularity. Many people view it every day. The reason it dropped is due to the lack of needing to reply when all the information is already in the post.
dont feel no pain
Riposte's have been buffed nicely

Where is that illusion chalice found, I know what I need to get, but I can't find the collector. I have every skill, I just don't have the chalice.
Danger Russ
I love killing wurms!!!!! The more the better! Fought 3 at once last night. Sweet victory. 2 bleached sheels dropped. I used to run the clear-the- desert build with illusionary weapon and elemental resistance, but I guess I am too lazy to used that set up each time. Sometimes all I plan to kill is wurms and griffins.
I run this build. Very efficients on wurms and griffins. Illusionary weaponry build is slower but better if sand elementals and the echanted weapons are blocking your farm lands.
Sprint - mostly to speed up run and avoid enchanted bows, swords,etc
Desperation blow
Riposte
Deadly Riposte
Gladiators
Dolyacts
Phyical Resistance
Healing Signet
Grab your armor, collectors shield, and a zealous blade of defense and watch them die. I usually run two superiors, Strength and Tactics.
Tactics 15- 16
Strength 12
Sword 9-10
Inspiration 4-5
If you really want to speed up wurm kill, drop sprint and gladiators and add sever artery and gash with a barbed sword. They bleed and keep a deep wound the whole time. Man, I love it when they gang up on me. Kiling one at a time is too quick.

Is platemail required to do this run is it feasible and understandable in length to just do glads?
Akuma
Glads is fine.
BTW, this run is doable without att in swords, but I can't seem to find any wurms, I get 3 max a run.

heres my build, the swordsmanship isnt requirted i dont even use it its just for show i jsut keep the 2 from my hat and rune because my sword is req12
dont feel no pain
if your doing a riposte build a furious sword hilt always helps
Jas D
You don't need mend ailment, you just have to be more intelligent than what you're dealing with and if you cant detect something is about to get in your aggro circle, you need to die anyway. I replaced it with sprint.
