For those who don't know what that is, UW = UnderWorld and FoW = Fissure of Woe. They are two places accesible from The Temple of Ages city. You need to pay 1 platinum in order to go to either one of these places. One of the main reasons why these places are so popular is because of Fissure Armor, which is ridiculously expensive but looks uber cool. 
In order to make Fissure Armor you need rare crafting materials that only drop in UW and FoW, those being Globs of Ectoplasm and Obsidian Shards, Ecto only dropping in UW and Shards only dropping in FoW.
If there is interest, we can get a party going to either of these places, there are a lot of quests to do there as well, 10,000XP quests and higher. The enemies are all above level 20, usually around level 24 or so.
I myself am very familiar with the UW as I have gone there solo in the past, and more recently have been doing 2-man runs. It can be an extremely profitable run as currently Ecto sells for about 10k each, trader buys it for 9k. Obviously keeping the party size to 2 people is preferred since more would cut into the individual profits. Also there are "limitations" as to who can actually perform well in a 2-man run to the UW.
2 Monks with the right skill bars is probably the best way to go. 1 Monk and 1 Elementalist is also very good. These are the only combinations I have personally tried out as far as 2-man runs go. There are other ways but they require more people in the party, ie Ranger trapper group.
When dealing with going to FoW, a more traditional party of 8 works quite well. So anybody who wants to go could go farm FoW, but I don't have that much experience doing Fow so perhaps someone else who has experience there can shed some light on FoW.
So hopefully there is some interest in SoE for doing both UW and FoW. For a while now I've been going with Sydney Ablaze to UW and we could use a new face in the mix.
Post in this thread if you are interested and we can work something out.
