Don't join speed clear groups if you are not experienced with an area!! Learning will be difficult for you in a speed clear situation, and everyone else will be pissed at you because you'll be slowing everything down, if not making the group fail entirely!
You should first familiarize yourself with areas like UW doing what they call "old school" clears, in normal mode. As an elementalist, it is really easy to find such groups since most people want nukers for damage. When you've learnt about the area, know what all quests trigger and how they should be completed, then you can think of joining speed clear groups.

idk about you, but whenever I'm at TOA I hardly ever see people wanting to clear uw normally. It's speed clears, 600 smite, and 55/ss mainly.

stand still out of way, at least that is what i did.

Terra should be able to do that alone, and if they need cover the A/me will be able to do it much better then your easy removable enchantment.

if you have 10 you can : candy corn + golden egg + grail to reach 3 energy loss

if you don't well you might as well leave to 8

Something I noticed playing pits for the first time.

If you kill the collector(or the trasher, dont remember what kind) with a minion, the AI will target the masterless minion with lingering curse, and FoC hitting you too. (or worse if you are near a dryder fireball and meteor).

So a little precaution on the killing order is needed.

Also, i wasn't able to dead charge up hill, so I ran troughs the big grp of 4 skele. With speedbost and dead charge i lost the aggro easy, but there is any way to avoid it?

Playing as rit, in few run.

I will say it sad how most of rit around manage to not play EoTN and not have the right skill, and more how they miss to catch judgement of dhuum with PI.

Anyway, restoration instead of Flesh of my flesh could be a good idea.

It will change almost nothing as a ress skill but for it will provide a extra spirit to fuel feast of soul

yeh.. you had the farming nerf kick in for you- it's weird the way it works though

like if you overfarm an area over and over almost nothing drops.. but then if you keep doing it even after nothing drops- you hit something in the code that says, this guy is insane.. and you'll have 2-3 runs where the golds never end

also in dungeon runs I noticed if you run a failboat time.. like most people who run balanced, you'll get diamonds in the endchest- think it goes with the skill vs time thing.. the programmers won't reward the lame- it's pretty cool setup I think cause it rewards peeps who worked for a speed run


I used to try and beat the drop nerf by running missions like the great northern wall and come back.. but it still remembers- all can say is keep at it and you'll get the map spawn with the goods.. another way if your in a group- get some noobie like those guys in the skill update thread.. then sit them in a corner somewhere and 7 man it- he'll trigger the juicy drops remember like that time I came back to gw and ran with you guys, ended up with a frog scepter

pretty sure guys like us will have no luck with the travelers gifts either

You don't need speed boost . As long as you can see the path going to the hill you can dc there.Just walk a little pass the hill if u can see the usual group of collectors next to the wall dc will work on the treshers on the hill.
