Hi there!

I don't know if I'm in the right section so move it if nessecary!
Most of you guys know that I really love challenges so I decided to do one of the hardest challenges I could imagine: Solo the Underworld. Ofcourse I don't mean a 55 / 600hp build but also that should be a great job.

So far we (Lambda and me) have been able to clear:

The Labyrinth
The Ice Wastes
The Twin Serpent Mountains.
The Spawning Pools
The Chaos Planes

There are allot of different builds available to clear those area's. My ultimate goal is to have 1 build which is able to solo The Underworld. You should see different builds in those screenshots but I'll still tweaking to find the best one.
Let's get started.

The Labyrinth

The Ice Wastes

The Twin Serpent Mountains

The Spawning Pools:

The Chaos Plains:

The Bone Pits

We still need to clear:
The Forgotten Vale
The Bone Pits

If any of you guys have ideas, builds or screenshots, post them

Good luck!

the oens you have yet to do are the tough ones that arent usually involved in a regular solo farm. Not putting you down but what you have accomplished so far ahs been done over and over again. I look forward to seeing screenshots of you soloing the Chaos Plains, I know its been duo'ed by I think Avarre and someone else... but never soloed

Be cooler if you solo them with one build... But still a great job, is the second guy In your party to rez you?

EDIT:k done, kind of out of order but w/e.

Small group of smites...

Chaos plains, killing a mindblade from the wailing lord group.

Finished the noob killed quest.(Unwanted Guests)

Tanking Dryders from Unwanted guests

I love Dryders

Spawning pools

(Uploadign is getting slow now X_X)

Twin Serpant Mts.. can't kill the behemoths when there extremely close to eachother(too much blindo!)

Charged blackness

Wand.

Coldfires.

Killing some baddies

That checks off, Twin Serpants mts, Chaos plains, Spawning pools, forgotten vale.

As for Bone pits, you can kill collectors no problem, it's the thrashers that eat you alive(Or maybe it's the other way around it's been a month or two since I've done this). I will search for more screenies when I have time.
Only ONE build was used in all of these screen shots.

i dont believe it was only one build. i have no reason not to either.

good for you, but i dont think anyone cares. keep the comment to yourself, k? you obviously dont know what that guy managed already, and honestly now, just because your not good enough to do it doesnt mean its the same for others. -_-

i believe him, and have enough reasons for it.

go lambda!

Lambentviper · Oct 11, 2006, 12:37 AM // 00:37

heheh yeah im know he can do it, its obviously all there in the screenshots o.0

but i do find your hypocracy funny. You flame me for not believing he can do it (which he clearly can) but, you dont even believe i can do it.

So before you reply makeing this a flame-war, I will say i know that Lambda has/can/does do rather amazing things that others cannot..yet.

But i see no reason in hiding the skills, which was all i was really commenting on buddy :P And if he showed the skills, it would mean more peope would be able to try, which leads to more people learning it, which leads to less people like you makeing false assumptions (hypocritically)

P.S. ( :P ) something tells me the GW community wont benefit from your post (in response to mine) either. And im sure they could go without this edit, but i know your going to check back here and i think you should read it

knoll · Oct 11, 2006, 12:51 AM // 00:51

To my knowledge it is one build it rather impersive(or however you spell it).

TheLordOfBlah · Oct 11, 2006, 01:29 AM // 01:29

EDIT: Nevermind, believe it now =P

I guess I was going in the wrong direction with guessing skills. And I thought you had done 2 diff areas in 2 instances after switchin skills and weps it all. nice job, hadnt heard of this build till now.

lambda the great · Oct 11, 2006, 01:30 AM // 01:30

Gladiators defense
Desperation blow
Driposte
Armor of Earth
Dolyak Signet
Healing signet
Watch Yourself!
Drunken blow////bons defense, can't remeber which one I used in the screenshots, I just copied the links from when I posted themm elsewhere(if that made sense) Credit to Racto for findin desperation blow.

16T, 12Str/////16 str 12t, 8 earth...

knoll · Oct 11, 2006, 02:26 AM // 02:26

Yea i think the build was posted already by either rooster or Racthoh, or showed in a screenie not to sure...

Witte Was · Oct 11, 2006, 05:16 AM // 05:16

Great job Lambda! That's what I wanted to see. I knew the W/E build should be the best with the nice AL because of Armor of Earth. My build is slighly different with Sliver Armor and Sprint. I'll try your build soon

Racthoh · Oct 11, 2006, 06:29 AM // 06:29

Gladiator's Defense
Deadly Riposte
Desperation Blow
Watch Yourself
Armour of Earth
Bonetti's Defense
Healing Signet
Dolyak Signet

11 Strength
8 Earth Magic
16 Tactics

+10 vs. fire shield
+10 vs. cold shield (optional, but it helps vs. the coldfires)
Charr at the gate sword with a +5 defense pommel for another +10
Any wand (CC is best, just because the extra damage is nice)

Probably worth it to bring a set of dragon's with you vs. the terrorwebs, especially if you want to try to solo the Ice King quest (which I still believe will be possible). But, that takes up so much room in your inventory.

Nightfall skills will make what has currently been done a cakewalk.

You did a good job of hiding this... however I doubt you greatly

No need to doubt, we've been doing it for a while (at least with this skill bar that I've been using):

Perhaps I'm retarded but how do you heal under ignorance?

lambda the great · Oct 11, 2006, 01:44 PM // 13:44

Heal when It's not on you, never been able to take on the groups of 6

Also, the enchantment(s) you're using isnt(arent) on (also have other weapon sets)while fighting the same mob in a diff screenie . However since theyre obviously not maintained, i could be wrong.

As to what I have noticed skill wise, obvious enchantments, so W/Mo
Balanced stance or, and more likely, dolyak signet
cant make out any skill animations.

just for more proof

JUST to get you to believe that warriors can do this I'll go and find the screenies and repost them without the blanked out bar... as for the weapons, I switch so I get more armor vs XX.

Here is one screenie, I'll post the rest when I get back from school

Turbobusa · Oct 11, 2006, 06:59 PM // 18:59

great job.
but I wonder, why are you hiding your build in some screenies if you're not in all of those you're posting?
cause the challenge is to solo it with a single build...
does that means there's a limit where VWK get pwned by something?
