By far the easiest way to train a weapon skill is to use spellweaving to Dryad Allure an artic ogre lord, then use your 100% poison weapon. I train all my wep skills like this and it's fast as can be. Just start with 50 skill and use jewels to get you to 65-ish (depending on the ogre). No dmg to your weapon or having to worry about healing. Can also be done with just one account. And getting the 50-ish spellweaving required to cast the spell is easy too!

This sounds really interesting.... Now, are there any Throwing training scripts around?

Don't forget that now with reforging you can make self repair weapons.  I had a AFK silver farmer going for a while that was running a valor suit(full suit has +5 self repair) a self repair shield and self repair fast weapon.  Get into sampire form and walk away for the day. Nothing breaks and needs looking at.

Just a thought if you were looking at the OP and using this method.
Nope!  I'm doing what all the real PvPers do:  Scripting everything except the running away part!  I'm real good at that already...

Use the Exquisite/of Quality name in the reforging menu.

DC hammers cap at 2 or 4 self repair.  Non powerful vs powerful reforge.
SH hammers cap at 5 regardless if you use powerful or not.
CP hammers cap at 6 or 7, powerful vs non. 

I think it's a 1/7 chance to get SR as a mod, but worth the time to make a 7sr weapon for farming purposes IMO.

I think I used coppper hammers also.  I did it on a RtB account that was banned but got turned on for a few days.  It was amazing at how nothing really moved on the suit.  If I needed gold or more silver I would do this in a heart beat.  Can trial accounts join factions? 

I'm sure that you could do this same for making a SR suit but the valor one was perfect for what I needed.  I also used a pair of cursed jewels with SSI and some DI to increase this char's overall effectiveness since those jewels ment I didn't lose anything if I was PK'd but it never happened on the few days I managed to run it.

This is the way myself...and after I taught them..all my guildies used to train anything. No script needed. run UO Loop to say something every 5 minutes and just attack the thing...walk away or fall asleep :) Do it out in the middle of no-where or on a boat in non-traveled places.
