A question about Shards of Orr - Guild Wars Forums

Pikey · Jul 19, 2009, 12:39 PM // 12:39

I've been reading the guide on PVX wiki about the team build for running SoO, and so far I have managed to aquire all the neccessary skills in order to make the run viable. But now I am looking the the equipment required and for the 600 monk an offhand weapon is needed which is described as follows:

+12 Energy, +45 Health while enchanted, 20% HSR offhand.

Now I have been having some difficulty obtaining these stats on an offhand. If there is any experienced SoO runner here who can reply, are these specific stats needed for the offhand or can I go with an end-game green for example: Droknar's protection focus?

Thanks, much love.

I'm using an offhand with:
+12 energy q9 prot
Inscription: "Forget me Not" 20%
Focus core of Fortitude: health +30

Oh, and use the fire traps in the final boss, or the rangers will drain all your energy

You can use any offhand. The one specified is just the one that gives the best results due to the buffs to energy, hp & skill recharge.

Collectors in EotN have focus with the +45 enchanted and an empty inscription slot

If you want a
+12 energy q9
Inscription: "Forget me Not" 20%
Focus core of Fortitude: health +30

Off hand, a Droknar's, Deldrimor, or Straw Effigy (end game EotN, Prophecies, or Factions) work.

If you want
+12 Energy
+45 Health while enchanted
20% HSR offhand

You will have to make it with an inscribable offhand and use a focus core of devotion and "Forget me not" inscription.

Inscription is called "Forget Me Not" and is very costly.
+45 While Enchanted is called "Focus Core of Devotion" and should be fairly cheap.
If money is a problem, I suggest using a non-perfect inscription. You won't notice a difference in most cases.

thanks for the input, I'm going to go with an endgame EOTN focus then
