Death leveling? - Guild Wars Forums

I have been researching death leveling in pre and so far I know exactly how to do it. My only question is one that nobody has seemed to explain in the tutorials I have seen.

Once you death level say....I don't know....12 charr in the northlands to a higher level than you.... How do you kill them?

I can't even solo kill a group of 4 when they are the same level as me. How can I kill 12 level 18's??????

My assumption is you pick one enemy attack it until you die then when you res (still near the enemy and shrine) the enemy will have not recovered his life yet and you can repeat the attack and res. If someone has done this can you just confirm it for me? Thanks!

Killing at the shrine is easy, as long as you don't allow any shaman to lvl up. 1 shaman isn't too bad either, but 2 high lvl shaman can ruin your whole day. And I found that pulling just 2 groups worked just as fast as my brother's settups where he pulled 3 or 4 groups.

You got it figured out correctly.

when it comes time to kill the charr, target one that has reached your max target level and zap away. You will die in about 15 seconds and when you rez, just keep at it.

Couple of tips on that...

- Don't use any degeneration damage spells. If they kill the charr while you are dead, you get no XP. Firestorm, Life siphon and that sort of thing are just out for charr killing. Flare and other fast single shot skills work better.

- Use that couple of seconds after the rez to exploit the invulnerability with a longer cast spell if you need to.

- Mind which targets have leveled up. depending on how you did your draw all the charr may or may not be leveled up. Kill the high ranking ones and let the others keep killing you afk until they level out. (and watch area effect casts if you are going to do this)

I agree with Thom on the majority of this.... when pulling groups... i kill the shaman in each of the groups if there is one... also, I have found that if you kill at least one charr in each of the groups then all members of the pull will level up at the same time.... it is anoying to have one group level up to 19 or 20 and the next two or three groups are at level 8.... this cuts down on how many you end up with at the shrine... you just have to pull more than two groups

a great place to find info on death leveling and everything in presearing is to go to presearing.com. I have found a wealth of info there...
