Default Different approach

Ive only recently started reading this thread, and its taking me a while to create new toon primaries to try some of these tricks. I have 2 accounts with all chapters (for a friend that plays on my lan occasionaly)

What Im trying to put togheter is a Duo-Solo team, with the 2 separate accounts, 2 computers, 2 logged in toons; you park one toon, and switch as needed. This allows to take all drops, all experience, and allows two totally separate classes/skillsets to be taken in in ToPK, with some "borrow skills" from a mesmer, you can also cross-skill a toon temporarily. Ok, so im bored

Appararenty this 2 account thing can also be done on a single pc: http://www.freewebs.com/johnidis/download.htm. This idea is only against the laws unless you automate the toons. Ive asked and if both toons are under manual control, its all ok.

If anyone has any feedback on using such an idea, or good 2 person builds, send a pm, might be fun to try out with my friend.

EDIT: Yes, I know I can make a 2 sin team, the idea of 2 accounts and different class toons is to cut the time even further down via optimizing skills, maybe 2 sins might be optimal, I dont know.

THis actually worked pretty swell before the Update of SoH. I ran 2 assassins one on the laptop and one on my comp and alternated accordingly. However now recall must be used because SoH has a duration of a weak high 30's to low 40's (instead of the 50 seconds it used to have). Now I run a stationary monk along with my assassin that i solo with. It takes.. much longer

Yeah, once I get a monk hero (I need to stop trying to solo tombs and do some other stuff on my sin ;D) I'll run him with something like Rebirth and Blood Ritual/Blood Is Power with Heal Other or Word of Healing for when Shadow Form ends.

Atm I am still having real problems with wurms - I just can't do enough damage to them..

Congrats. ;D

I usually get about an hour or so into it to get to the second wurm on the second level and then die. (I just avoid the 2 in the main hall :/)

would it be possible to take out dark escape and put in deaths charge just to get in the fight a little bit faster? by the time SF is close to ending, SoH is over and ur where u started. depending on how u time it, u could lure them a little bit farther from ur starting location...

Don't most people run recall and BoS now, rather than SoH/dark escape? I found it alot easier to run, at least. Tbh I could never get past the wurms on the second level, so I gave up. Not like it's more profitable than E/Me UW farming, eh?

i modified the build a little bit. i am able to kill 2 of anything per assault.(except dream riders) same everything as before but instead of dark escape, use deadly paradox(DP). 20% enchant mods r a must!

DP --> echo --> SF --> SoH then run in. when attacking, use empathy, black lotus, black spider, wait a few seconds, then use S again. then use twisting fangs. then repeat on next enemy. when this ends, SF is recharged and u only have to wait a few seconds for echo to recharge and ur energy to get back up.
