Default Vanq'ing Lornar's Pass

Hey guys,

I need a little help. I'm having a huge problem taking down groups with 2-4 Dolyak Masters coupled with those damn Stone Summit Sages. I'm a Ranger usually running a BHA build or a Barrage build - both with dshot and savage shot - and normally running 3 Sabway heroes + Healer henchies, and I still have the worst time even scratching these suckers.

Anybody have any tips for these 6-man areas? I'm thinking I bring Sniper support, and I may even attempt discordway over Sab, but I'm not sure. Is this place caravan capable?

You can 8 man this area by going from south (you want to do this because of are south of Lornanrs anyway)

I went with an 8 person group. If you've got a decent H/H setup then you'll get up through Snake Dance fairly quickly. Btw, maybe if you swapped targets alot in the 4 dolyak master groups, sometimes that confuses their AI and they throw their prots around sloppily leaving you to abuse one of them. I used a minion bomber in that vanquish; if you're in a good area you'll be able to blow up all your minions and 3-4 dolyaks with them (it's awesome when it happens).

The easiest way is indeed from south. But between snake dance and Lornars you may encouter one more 4 dolyak group. I would highly recommend 8 team try and indeed taking discord over sabway there.

Daze+deep wound+epidemic, target swap until all their mark of protection is used. Go for a dolyak first so they use their prots, then swich to a sage or another squishy for the kill. They can't keep up with target switching so find the hole in their defense and take them down systematically. Did this h/h from the 6 man side and it wasn't too difficult.

[broad head arrow] + [epidemic] + [volley] will rape them, also swap your sabway for discordway and give the necroes some enchantment removal and you should be ok. :>

Default lornars pass vanquish

Hi

Agreed on others sugestions, start from the south, possibly camp rankor work you way up, to lornars pass, it can be done with heroes and henchies, provided you heroes are set up, properly with solid builds,runes, armors, and weapons, i play ranger went, with a modified barrage build, bought a jjged bones necro(mm), a SS(necro), and a healers boon monk, heros took fire ele(henchie), mesmer, healer monk, and cant remmber last one., if you like company, give me a holler, i roll with you for the fun., usally on after 4:30 PM Eastern Standard time(usa/virginia), ingame name is " Gwendolyn Star "

i did it with a friend form the south but when we got there (i too was a ranger) its best to just agro the group go along the wall so most if not all the doylaks, carvers and w/e else, come onto you and are body blocked then just nuke them, we brought 3 searing falmes so they went down pretty easy.. and if u have "Finish Him" and dont forget a stance or two

jspayed

a good tip, for you and any other player who is in the harmode buissness, bring a interupt mesmer, since you said you play a ranger, d shot, broadhead arrowm savage shot and even ebonvanguard support are you firends,with a couple of interupts on your bar, and a good mesmer with some 3-4 good interupt on there build it shhould be plenty to take them down, also, if you have not figured out, Sabway or triple necro vanquish,can not do everything, and surely its not the only game in town, i often switch up my heroes, and use the sabway mm, and eithe norgu(enrgy surge build) or gwen(powerblock build), plus the SS sabway necro, or i might bring the henchie mesmer, and switch out norgu for dunkoro running healers boon build, many options her, also 2 hero sf'/ sh nukers, dunkoro, and mesmer henchie/healer henchie and other.
