UW question and all~
Okay, so most people are probably sick of this question.
How do I best clear it, just in NM?
I play as a W and I don't have any friends that play this any more.
We once attempted it and failed at the Horsemen stage -_-
We had me and two Eles and other heroes~
Now that Dhuum only appears at the end of UW, what are my best chances of finding a way to clear UW?
I tried PUGs, but none of the Experienced players thus far want a W and the others are too painful to talk about =/

Yeah I play warrior too and UW can be tough, I think NM is sort of easy if you a bring Sabway and some people.
Its really hard to say any strategy's when UW was changed recently.

We did a couple of runs oldschool builds and players, was actually quite fun. We have 2 Monks, Healer and a Prot, Necro SS, Warrior, and a Sin, Rit, My self ele bomber, and mes.
Did good until Ice wastes quest where our party got wiped. LOL, had an ecto drop too, that sucked, was fun though for the most part.

this is how elite areas should be run in my opinion. it should take a long time and the end boss should be hard.
and it's more fun right? more rewarding!
to bad 99% of the players is using shadow form.

Sinking in 2+ hours, just to lose, does not equal fun to me. It equals frustration.

The way my group last night did it (we did really good ... cleared all the quests but three and were having no problems until someone activated the Bone area quest when nobody was ready and we were automatically wiped because somehow we failed the quest objective (it happened like 15 seconds after someone accepted it. :| )
The way we did the horseman was have a Perm sin preoccupy the two on the right while everyone else went to the left and took out that group. Then we simply double backed and took down the last group while the Sin aggro'd it.

not true, i have personally completed it twice with NO perma, once on my necro and one on my imabagon. this attitude only clearly shows the current state of the game. both groups consistated of a tank ,2 ele's,necro,imabagon,2 monkies, spirit spammer. i'd rather find a PuG and attempt it, than to be shunned becuase i have NO perma in my toon stable. with patience,carefull pulling and simple direction it can be done. BTW , LFG UW anytime i am on

just cleared it with an 'balanced' group... I were the imbagon, 2 600 monks, 2 rit spammers some mesmers, we got through with no problems, I were quite surprised at how smooth we did it!

Yeah so the thousands of UW clears in 2005, 2006 ,and 2007 didn't happen cause there were no permas.

Finding a decent PUG that will take you is unlikely until Shadow Form gets hit.
Join a Guild that respects you.

Don't bother trying with pugs until the area gets redesigned to be less frustrating. You can try looking for an ACTIVE and GOOD guild that likes doing UW but the odds are really not in your favour. I probably went through over 50 guilds before finding my current one and even now its still hard getting enough active good guild members for frequent UW runs.
