I dont know what you are playing, or where you are at, but I have the most luck in Talmark Wilderness against Fog Nightmares and Ancient Oakhearts.
Im sure there are better places in South Shiverpeaks and beyond, but I've farmed in TW since lvl 17 on my own and have always found it lucrative.

Outside of Droks inside the Troll Cave is a very good, easy, and nice place to farm. You are also able to get lots of xp from them.

I suguest 2 man trap farming the UW. Myself and a guildie were 3 man trapping and our teammate lagged out. so we continued to proceed on and trap. Needless to say we died but not with out taking a few of the smites with us. I said lets do a 2 man team and i will pay. After brainstorming we came up with a skill bar that worked for us. I bring all 4 traps (spike,flame,barb,and dust skills 1-4 respectivly) I also bring QZ and Winn (Quickening Zyhper and Winnowing) Finally Whirling Defense and Rebirth. My guildie brings all 4 traps QZ Energizing Wind WD and Rebirth. Both of us have Wilderness Survival at 16 and Expertise at 13. I drop WInn and he drops EW once EW is down I place QZ. We both trap till QZ runs out. If done right you can place dust twice and the other3 traps 3+ times. (QZ @ max WS lasts 49 sec so EW only needs to be 62 sec which is at BM at 4-5 i belive). He replanishes EW and then drops QZ. i place all 4 traps once more and then proceed to pull. he stays at traps and i pull anything to us. Aataxe, Smites, Darkness they all drop and I pull more than one group at a time. ( as a marker i leave to pull when MY QZ regens, any later and you might not get the full bevy of ur traps). For the Aataxe i usually place one spike trap after they spring the other traps to hold them down. 9-10 times they all drop. We can clear almost the whole UW. Path trap the Coldfires and i can pull terrorwebs.
I do however sugest going with someone you know really well and only do it with them. Why you ask... we split ectos 50/50 and dont think twice some ppl wont and if you pay and dont get ur moneys worth it is a waste of ur time.
Now the part you want to know about Does it work and what do you get? I walk out with all my inventory full and about 3k in gold before sales... 1 gold drop every 3 runs unless i have keys. not to mention ectos!
Happy Hunting!

yea well o think we all agree that UW farming is very lucrative however unless ur a Vampire or play on europe servers the whole favor thing gets in the way. quick question how much money do ppl usually bring in farming trolls ive heard it was good but also heard it would be nerfed soon and i m debating weather or not to make a 55 monk.

Yea the troll caves is not bad... i have power leveled some guys there cause it is easy and quick. I prefer UW cause one trip and i get everything i dont have to go back and forth back and forth... but if you solo it you can make some quick cash.

IMO troll cave is bunk...unless you're farming for wood or skill points. For 2 man, UW is best, ectos & chest drops are usually pretty decent. 5 man FoW farming is very lucrative. Solo...if you have a 55 the hydras outside Augury Rock are ok.
There's dozens of farming builds and where to use them on the guides section of this site.

Personally I really hate farming- I find it boring and only do it wen i want something specific. I also think its one of the lamer aspects of RPG, surely someone can come up with a better system than $$$ farming for getting top stuff.
There are loads of areas to farm in GW with any of the primaries. Sometimes I 2person trapped UW (when ectos were fetching above 10k- takes so long though!) or farmed port sledge, ettin, troll, sand worm, even charr wen fur prices were high and fur sold well etc etc.
until the recent nerf i always felt griffon was the fastest and most efficient earning, on average, 1-2k every 6-7 minutes. This was the beauty of griffon farming You could go make 2,3 or 4 runs whenever you needed to, or when you were just waiting to meet up with friends.
I used a 55mo for griffon, and wen i needed skill points a 55mes. Thats another point- u can 55 anything. a 55 mes cost hardly anything to buy sup. runes for (and channelling can provide rather ludicrous amounts of energy). Although the 55mo is the most efficient against big mobs cos of the supplemental divine favour heal.
Essentially just keep your eyes peeled while playing for large concentrated mobs of a single type and its a surety u can come up with an effective build to get them.
But what has bothered me lately though is that I haven't found a new mob to replace the griffons that dropped so lucratively so regularly.
I think this is the real core issue with farming. Sure we can farm big mobs that drop rubbish and feel invincible. We can farm UW in small teams or solo and HOPE for great drops but take ages doing it. If you enjoy farming then this may be fine for you.
Personally, give me an area, CLOSE to a warp point, with good REGULAR drops and, AT THE VERY LEAST, GOOD $$$ drops. Hopefully factions will offer the cash strapped either some new areas or will ameliorate the necessity somewhat with its greater quest rewards.
