my biggest question: doesn't the fact that you are bringing a hero decrease your drops significantly?

Yeah, but it's worth it. You can just bring a player and split drops/cores.

Just wanna compliment you.

This build works great! Made some fair spending money on my Ranger doing it last night (about 4 complete runs) - a Silver, Blue, and Purple dye, about 3k from merchant items, and 11 Destroyer Cores.

I screwed up a bit near the start, I think the weakest link is the point when your hero must replenish QZ - you gotta be careful and not use VwK during the time when it's down, else you're screwed with the 20 second recharge.

I bring EoE to speed up the runs. I still get about 2-5 cores per run (usually) with or without it so I don't know if the "mass killing" hypothesis has been proven to drastically reduce drops. Just something to note.

Did they nerf it in HM? I can't survive the spiked: 15 str, 12 rest...
vengeful lasts for 10 seconds and steals 29 health of course-
I keep up everything just like in the video, but my health spikes down the first 10 seconds (usually after endure pain ends)

There has to be away to do this run in HM with a rit. I've tryed to do it in Hm with a 330 hp without retribution and a ranger hero but keep getting spiked by Lamentation.

I don't think there's been any change, really... as I've finally managed to learn
how to do it in HM.. so it's still very doable.
But sometimes you just seem to have bad luck and they blast
you to pieces within seconds.

*edit*
And I just realized I've got 14 strength.

Yes, that's with my W/Rt.

What I've noticed tho is that when the destroyers on one side falls a bit behind
it really gets harder, as you don't get as much attacks/healing from VwK.

You're not trying to solo HM are you?

Alright, so you DO have the ranger hero along? I got the impression you're trying
this solo.. wich I can't see happening other than in NM.
