Sacnoth Vanquising - Guild Wars Forums

Destro Maniak · Nov 18, 2008, 09:24 PM // 21:24

Im going to vanq sacnoth valley for a week to get ebon vanq title maxed
But I wonder which boss is where in order to leave them to last

Also is there any tips on some skills to bring for sure for certain bosses/areas/mobs because I heard that sacnoth is one of the hardest vanq due to strong block abilities of charr and omfg=>uber-pwnage force of searing flame boss

so ty for helps

BTW:Im an assassin so I can consider solo some mobs if really difficult (now I want to be lame, I dont care, I just want to do this easily

)

1) I think books are faster but im not 100% sure.
2) Typical moebius deathblossom build with save urselves should be good. Itll make them stupid eles feel easy.
3) Sabway or discordway could work. If going with discord, it might be worth running assassins promise... dunno.
4) Spread out vs searing flames
5) Careful aggroing.
6) Try and steal someone elses heroes, or have a mate come along. 6 heroes 1 man better then 3 heroes, 1 man, 4 hench.

Hey m8. I feel your pain regarding the Sacnoth Vanquish. It was the only thing I left out of my Leg. Eotn title but then out of guilt and a need for Vanguard points, I went back to vanquish it about 3 and a half times.

So firstly, there is a great guide in the community forum http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10262474
which has illustrations and explanations of the path through Sacnoth that will yield the greatest amount of enemies (i.e. hitting 250 kills, and leaving the bosses for the end). You will only need to stray from this path slightly to vanquish every foe in the area, and you'll also need to kill all those silly worms in the SW corner

.

As for builds, I agree with Luminarus that triple necros are ftw. On the minion master run: jagged,horror,vampiric,putrid bile, death nova, prot spirit, aegis and extinguish. I ran an earth-shaker warrior, with the occasional SY! Pre-prot, careful agro, knock-lock ftw! Say what you want about PVE skills, but they are extremely useful here esp. breath of the great dwarf, pain inverter, and finish him! for those pesky grawl rits.

Lastly, make sure you pin your heroes/henchies well outside of the burning forest. Pull enemies in groups of 1 or 2 toward your heroes, but then unflag them as they draw near so that they all dont stand right next to each other. Kill every single thing in the forest before attempting the boss group with Borrus the fire ele. His group alone will probably wipe you so be sure you wont encounter anything else when fighting him.

Best luck, i got the run down to under an hour easily, and I ended with a max Vanguard title, plenty of loot, and some very useful green weapons for my heroes

meh I tried this twice and burning forest is impossible
Im not gonna max vanguard (I got every 3 other :P)
FORGET ABOUT there are flame djinn that hits for 478 damage on boss which simply wipes out everyone near (now cmon, I cant make a hero prot spirit everyone indefinely can I?) The main problem is flame djinn penatrates SF

So as that area is impossible, Ill go on with elona vanq :P (there might be harder places in elona *although I dont think so* but as I need to vanq for once I can use consset or something but as I need to vanq this area 20-30 times using consset each time is not an option

BUT thank you anyway :P
