Wow, the Mark of Rotgort + Lava Font is extremely effective. Nice call there!

Hmm, bring vampiric weapon with u to have always about 50 hp on chaos plains, that is making raiders stay in aoe instead of running.
U need to aggro 1st 4 raiders, then 3 near grenth monument, then 2 at the end + dryders ;]

i actually use it with glowing gaze, once the baddies are on fire. lets me spam more lava fonts to finish them off, kills the ataaxes faster. never had a problem without a running skill

I get constant 21 minute runs using [Mark of Rodgort] and [Lava Font], and i kill everything in the first room and everything on the way to the planes =D And what i do is i aggro the whole first room with 255 hp (3 sup runes) and then hit an aatxe with a melee weapon, which brings my hp down to 1-5hp. also, a good thing to do at the planes is before you aggro the banished riders, equip 2 pieces of armor without sup runes, let [Shadow Form] run out, and then swap armors with 2 sup runes, which gives you negative hp

Its a LOT easier to run normal runes, then let SF do down, you'll have 52 hp I think. After that, whenever you start to regen, just switch to a vampiric weapon and you are fine.


Edit: I just found out someone posted this already 4 posts above me lol.

Yep thats what I do.

My average run is 23 mins which includes clearing the first room and the dryders at entrance to spawning pools.

Tried it in HM today, as long as you're lucky and outrun the Charged Darkness groups, not much of a problem. However the whole enemy spread @ AoE in HM deal gets annoying at best. I know you can keep them pinned to a wall or some gubbins but eh, I'm lazy . And yes, I stick at around 52-52hp but they still go nuts and stay in range but pretty much just observe the ones that dont run away.

Will probably stick to NM, only really in it for the Ecto and the drop rate doesnt really differ in my personal experience. That and it is mondo faster, HM for me took a good 50 minutes (BDRs+MS+TWDs and a few bone pit enemies before I got bored). NM takes me like, 25-35 minutes. Many thanks to the original author of the build and whomever suggested MoR+LF

ps. my reward for attempting HM

Certainly nothing to turn me nose up at!

Not enough radiants I guess on my armour, but im never short of energy, if anything it keeps me on my toes. Does the job though, guess more energy wouldnt go amiss ... Guess a bo staff I bagged from Rit/Mo'ing Emperor Cho's estate just doesn't cut it (20% enchy etc).

Man, my drops suck like there's no tomorrow.
I've done about 20 full runs and I'm averaging 3 ecto's a run.
I thought it might have something to do with that old code you activated when zoning multiple times to the same area over and over again. Doing multiple PVE quests didn't help, it even gave me 2 ecto runs
Please help

I've only done about 4 runs so far and unfortunately I'm going on a beach vacation all of next week (wow, I can't believe I just typed that...). With my luck, the thing will be nerfed before I get back.

Until I really get comfortable with the run through the mountains, I've been burning a cupcake every time (I have 3 stacks of them...). That freed me up to use an anti-knockdown skill (I am Unstoppable) so I don't really need to worry about the Charged guys getting me.

I'm following this guide exactly, and I cannot keep Shadow Form up, sometimes it is still recharging as it runs out on me.
