During my first run i ran extra defensive and brought sever artery, gash, and final thrust as my primary attacks. Big mistake, the spiders just used Melandrus Resiliance and so my run resulted in...an hour and a half run since i spammed healing signet and did not bring a zealous mod, but it netted me 3 shards

God's Will · May 05, 2006, 02:53 AM // 02:53

ouch ya. I did that once. Rather than simply waste my time, I let my stance and signet fall and just die. I can't wait to use the new w skills

I use Sever Artery and Gash. Works like a charm with Wild Blow..

My friend added triple chop to his build. Anyone else been using it?

You should quote post numbers rather than pages when you do this. Not everyone uses the same settings as you - which includes posts displayed per page. For instance, this thread is still only on page 32 for me.

Nater · May 05, 2006, 06:37 PM // 18:37

Oh. Didn't think of that.

Post 1254, 1256 then. Although I didn't say much, as there isn't much to say. One Triple Chop is worth about 3 Cyclone Axes sometimes in dmg.

I've been doing this run for awhiles now and was wondering if I was the only one foolish enough to sell the spiders legs. If u slavage them u get 13-16 of those shells which was going for 180 for 10 at the trader!

Even before Factions came out were they selling for that much?

i've noticed something, when you first see the snarling driftwoods coming up, people usually kill em. But i've noticed that the shadow army comes back, yes since i don't kill them fast enough they come back and go out until the first skale (just behind the dryder) which has pissed me off because i now have to sprint passed the driftwoods, and dryders.

It's factions price spike. Use it while it lasts.

And I shouldn't be saying that, but gloom seeds salvage to plant fibers, which go for 200 per 10.

{IceFire} · May 06, 2006, 01:23 AM // 01:23

anyone have a "factions skillset" axe build?

BoondockSaint · May 06, 2006, 07:49 AM // 07:49

o a price spike, good i was kicking myself for all those legs i sold for only 60 each

. BTW thanks Rachthoh for the build, I've been trying to follow all the other build you've been doing also, big fan. Anyways I've stayed loyal to the sword build for some time now but have not got my CE factions yet to try any new skills. Any ideas? for sword not axe.

Racthoh · May 06, 2006, 09:12 AM // 09:12

Well I probably should try this again since I haven't because of factions. Not to mention completely upgrading the guild hall, purchasing all of the new skills for every profession, 15 capture signets so far, a new sword, new chest for my monk... has left me broke!

I just love using Healing Hands though since it only takes 1/4 of a second, plus the aftercast naturally. Some of the combos with Dragon Slash seem tempting since I've been using it extensively in Factions... but I would have to rely on Healing Signet too much.

Worst comes to worst, though, you can craft Damask with the plant fibres. Damask is currently 300+ a unit at the trader IIRC.

krytas · May 06, 2006, 01:10 PM // 13:10

well i've gotten a total of 10 shards in the past 2 runs but the shard prices are going down like mad

so i'm just gonna hold on to them

Son of Urza · May 06, 2006, 04:43 PM // 16:43

I just got an obscene run . . .
TWENTY-TWO spider legs (about 1 plat 300 gp just in the legs . . .), and FIVE obsidian shards.

*kisses ground at feet*

We are not worthy of your wisdom, Racthoh.

Racthoh · May 08, 2006, 03:56 AM // 03:56

I can't rememeber the name of the person I was showing this to, but I D/Ced as were loading back into ToA after that second go through.

Sorry about that, I'm a little rusty it seems... I can give you the 2k next time I see you ingame.

pegasux · May 08, 2006, 06:20 PM // 18:20

I finally took Triple Chop down there and WOW...clearing the caves is really fast with it. You can't spam triple chop and cylcone though cause of energy. So you rotate them every 5 seconds.

E/Me

Heal Sig
I Will Survive
Sprint
Physical Resistence
Tiger Stance - 33% increased attack speed for 9 seconds
Triple Chop {E}
Cyclone
Executioners

Not a Combo.

I simply switched Triple Whack in for Eviscerate. It's faster - I'm running at least ten minutes quicker - and you don't have to worry about timing Healing Signet because they don't have a condition to trigger Healing Spring. It's even worth using the elite against single enemies - it's still an Exe's Strike that doesn't use adrenaline.
