I have a super easy solution, run at him until he moves over to the guy who gives out the barrels

Bind a key to drop item

have everyone rush him, you using a speed buff.
You should be able to spam barreles, and after 5 seconds of spamming and no dying you will win if yuo keep spamming

The shortcut letters for skills/spells confuse me sometimes.

What are R/N touch Rangers?
SV for Necro
LoD Monk
And how do you bind drop item to a key?

I know what SS is, but don't have it and can't get it for my Eles.

SV is spoil victor

R/N is Ranger/Necro with vampiric touch/bite and plague touch with stances

LoD = Light of Dwayna = heals entire party under 80 health for some amount

And you just make a key where you drop the item...I'd just keep the dwarf targeted and alternate space bar and mouse click...that's what I did today.

Could be just me, but I found it real easy. 15DP as I died just outside due to accidental lure of burning spirits and 2 of those flowstone or whatever ones.

Ran in, dropped 3 kegs on him fast, started hitting, splat, dead inside 1 minute, maybe inside 30 seconds.

Had Vekk and Sousuke as Savannah Heat/AoE eles, Tahlkora as a Life Sheath prot monk, then mhenlo, cynn, lo sha and talon. That set up took me pretty much the whole way through the game, but with originally SF and only 1 ele with Dunkoro as LoD

ok if ya have 3 superior runes on ya...take em off it will be much easier, n if ya can take a powerstone of courage comes in handy!

Take at least 3 monks, 2 interupters, 1 tank and 1 ele. Surround him by flagging and you take the 'Powder Kegs' and blast him, should be death in 10 mins

Note: Dont take MM, it's no use. I used Gwen, Zhed and Dunkoro as heroes. Take Zho, 2 monks hench and talon.

Don't confuse newbies plx, LoD is Light of Deliverance. Light of Dwayna is 25 energy, 4 second Resurrect that works on all party members in the area.

I was having trouble beating this guy too, and I took a peak at the forums on a different fan site. One guy there used a random neco degen build (life stealing skills) on two of his heroes, and I decided to try something similar. Only without some of the odder skills (he had some that were obviously useless).

So my team looked like so:

Me (dervish, mostly just killing stuff)
Dunkoro (healer)
Master of Whispers (degen necro)
Livia (degen necro)
Eve (Blood Hench, use to help casters with their energy needs)
Devona (need another non caster so I don't get squished on the way to the boss)
Mhenlo (another healer to share the load)
Lina (help the healers)

I do have a rather high damage dervish build, so if you are using this technique, and you don't do damage like me, or if you are a caster, possible consider replacing any of the hench except eve, or take on the role of one of the others. Also, I know many people get by easily without Dunkoro.

Anyways, the skills for the necros is as follows. There are probably some others that would work better, but I only wanted to use what I already had.

Template Code: OAVDMDxHP+h2whITYHcD1weA

[skill]Life Transfer[/skill][skill]Life Siphon[/skill][skill]Faintheartedness[/skill][skill]Vampiric Gaze[/skill][skill]Enfeebling Blood[/skill][skill]Unholy feast[/skill][skill]Vampiric Bite[/skill][skill]Leech Signet[/skill]

Blood Magic: 12
Curses: 12

This pretty much operates on the idea that life stealing skills can be used through his carapace. That means he is already taking damage before you have dropped all your kegs.

An important thing is to flag your heroes and hench around the boss incase he manages to get off a pyroclastic blast. I put the necros on oposite sides of him, the hench in yet another separate place, and Dunkoro in a forth spot.

Basically, I let the heroes start the run in first, and I started running kegs. I can honestly say the wurm was dead in less than 2 minutes, and that while some of the hench died, the whole party was never wiped. Everyone in the party entered the room with 15% dp, except Master of Whispers who had no DP.

I am sure this could have been done more efficiently, but the point is I did it and it didn't take too long.
