W/ME Fow
I try solo W/Me fow thing. I am sure I wont have any problem fighting spiders. But I have trouble with the run. I spend 10k to try myself how to run into cave myself but I could got into cave from beach. Can anyone capture movie of the run. Actually I am really good runner in all placed that dont have mesmers and eles that slow me down. But only spirint is not enought for me.
Thanks |

There actually already videos on this. I can't remember where I got them from at the moment, but if no one else finds it I'll post back with links later.

If you're having trouble with the run, I'd recomend switching to w/mo till you get the hang of it. Use dolyaks instead of physical resistance and bring holy veil instead of one of your offensive skills so that if you mess up and agro a skale you can ditch the life transfer.

I cant do the run to inside the cave. I allways stuck at ranger spiders. Am I going to fight with them too or should I just try to run inside. We are going to fight boubter spiders right.I lost about 10-15k trying to learn
BTW should I get the quest from the ghost in platemail? Last edited by Destro Maniak; Dec 12, 2006 at 06:52 PM // 18:52.. |

my honest opinion, you seriously need to play more on your warrior and play the game. you need more back ground with soloing, and you need more back ground in FoW, because if you knew more about FoW you'd know the answer to your question about talking to the ghost. also, you will spend more then 15k trying to learn the best routes and practicing soloing down there. and the whole point of the solo beach farmer is the armored cave spiders in the cave!! also check the search button for solo FoW builds as there is a thread in the farming section or Tyrian explorer section that's about 60 pages long if not longer it also includes all your videos, techniques and routes which way to run how to avoid the shadow armies. so i can honestly say until you do your research on the subject you're going to spend alot more money wasting your time. i used to farm down there alot back when shards were worth 4.5 plat and i swore i wouldn't return to farming down there if their prices fell below 3plat, and they are currently at 2.1-2.4plat so i wont return again for this farm until they become worth my time down there, especially since they are random drops. |

I find it hard to believe that spider runs are profitable any more.

I've not tried it, but may I suggest you check out the Warrior and Farming subsections of The Campfire here on guru? I'd guess that's where you're most likely to find videos and detailed notes on such a run.

I could show you ingame in you like, it's really easy. Just leave your IGN and I'll pm you when I get online and when I have some time. You need to be European though.

Ok well here are some tips, i can show you also if your european IGN: venus was her name
take note at what people have said tho, i sometimes still do this if im bored or wanna use up some spare keys, but tbh obby shards are just too cheap now. it doesnt net you enough cash. still its a really fun run. no idea what build listed here on guru is BUT i use this basic setup. tripple chop, penetrating blow, executioners strike, watch yourself, physical resistance, dolyak sig, heal sig, sprint, axe: 15 (sup rune) str: (can't remember 12 i think) tact: also about 12 inspiration: whats left stats are just rough i cant remember exactly..lol its important to milk dolyaks for what its worth with high str to up the armour + armour: use knights for the damage reduction Tips. 1. Spiders do piercing damage so shields with +10 vs piercing are nice (+5 armour on your weapon is good too) 2. Your always in a stance so use a while in stance shield, not a -5 20%. 3. Use a zealous axe/sword mod 4. spiders will stop using healing spring when they are in melee range 5. main care needs to be taken to avoid the skales and their hexes have a health up/hex weapon set handy for when you get caught..prepare to run and heal sig. 6. use swords if you like (with sword skilslnot axe ones >_<) 7. spiders will start using nasty skills if your health is low, keep casting heal sig when its needed. 8. avoid condition based attacks becuase it makes spiders use melrandus resistance. you need to learn AI patrol and attack patterns for any GW solo build..make sure you watch whats going on and research the areas msonsters on GW wiki when vs spiders keep all 3 defensive skills on at all times. the times i've died its been becuase physical resistance has run out. never use dolyak sig outside of the cave due to skale patrols.

Use the +60 when running past the scales, you also have to find the safe spot, a good idea is after you have killed the first dryder at the corner of the scales, use a longbow to pull over any driftwood, so they dont get in ur way when ur running to the safe spots away from scales. Im sure you will manage it eventually, if you want to do a duel run with me so i show you how to do it that would be kl too. Hienrich Lindish Im on in the eve generally, gl m8 |
