Usage[ | ]
- Disrupting Chop is used to counter Gypsie Ettins, who use Healing Signet. You can use Distracting Blow here, as well.
- Dolyak Signet should be activated right before the ettins attack you.
- Cyclone Axe is to be used to build up adrenaline so that you can interrupt the healing signet much more often.
- This version doesn't require any monk skills. You almost don't even need Healing Signet, as there is only a 3 second time period when you don't have Dolyak Signet on.
Notes[ | ]
A quest available at the Ascalon Settlement. "The Last Hog," when activated, causes a large mob of Ettins to spawn on the other side of the nearby portal. For farming purposes, do not complete the quest, but begin it to draw the Ettins through the portal. If you run down to the hog and run halfway back up that path, Ettins will spawn on your side of the portal and will move to attack you. Care must be taken since although the Ettins do not mob you all at once, the groups do follow each other very rapidly.
Variant[ | ]
Replace Eviscerate with Triple Chop and drop Disrupting Chop for Dismember. Regardless of the Ettin's healing, a level 20 warrior will kill the Ettins easily and Triple Chop is easier to get, if you have Factions.
