That would mean when you get to the darkness' you can't use the huge cast group to kill them + their earths.

I just do it the way Lord Sahem does it in his video. Average around 26 min now.
you don't have to kill them to cap it.

and you don't need help to cap it from your heroes/customers.

Since I do not run this for money but just for fun when I'm bored, I took your builds and brought Koss with me so that he can shout "Charge!" (Does not change THAT much but I like seeing my assa run :P)

Result: 24min Run, but still many small time-consuming mistakes :P

At the people who run this for money: Do customers also watch you and leave because you didn't kill the earth tormentors directly and so they think it takes forever or you can't do it? Happened to me twice in the two runs I made, that's one reason why I only do this alone :P

Am I doing something wrong with my equipment?

I get to the very end where the darkness spawns, then I get overwhelmed by about 20 Earth tormentors... they seem to be able to cut me down to 0 health after about 3-4 perma cycles

Is there anything that can help against their staggering force?

Last time I died it said:
"x89 Staggering Force"


....so close! lol

Head: Shadow +3 +1En
C: +3en +2en
A: +1en +2en
L: +2en +2en
F: +1en +2en

standard: deadly arts3, shadow 12, earth 12

equip: enchats 20%/ +12en earth offhand

i also have both monks bonding me (tried with the one monk but died way before this point)


thanks for the input!

Because you can actually kill all the spawning earth tormentors while they're spawning, so they can't protect themselves
Just don't kill all the "smaller" darknesses at once

Put sup runes on all your armor so you have 105 hp, then you need a LOT of earth tormentors to kill you.

How much damage do the earth tormentors actually prevent with their Armor of Sanctity? Obviously its more than what the skills says because they are higher level. Does anyone know?

As far as I remember they take 26 less dmg (= 21 earth prayers), because without weakness I could deal 1 dmg to them and 27 when their armor wasn't up

I got a question ;P

trying this with only 1 monk, takes a while to kill all the foes at the cave but I fail at the end cos sliver refuses to target a monk, only 4 left so cant kill them, anyone knows how you can make sure sliver targets the monk/earth tormenters first?

for earth tormentors you shouldn't be near the caster group so it kills all them first. For the monk you don't need to kill the pulled group, just the quest group. Don't bunch them all together and use the 10+ that you pulled to fuel sliver for the quest group.

Yes indeed, thanks for answering questions for me in my, rather extended absence.
