I've come back from a long hiatus from GW, used to mainly PvP but would solo UW and FoW in between offnights and thought the Vengeful was Kinai ashes build for UW was SUPER easy and could clear smites from the chamber in around half an hour.

Well a lot has changed since then and it still works but its a pain in the ass so I tried this spirit spam build...and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but sometimes it just seems like mobs die so quick and easy and othertimes its just not working the way it should be. Has anything changed recently?

You're referring to the smites with the last statement? They're tricky because they can heal themselves a little, can remove hexes (Painful Bond, if you're running it), and can kill your spirits with their smiting skills. What you can do is spread your spirits out so Zealot's Fire will only hit one spirit at a time and then recast it once they move onto the next one. It's a bit fiddly and may take an attempt or two but it's definitely possible to kill them.

More generally though it could depend on things like how the spirits target (all attacking one target or attacking different targets).

Well at first I just had an issue with the overall execution. I think I understand what I was doing wrong, getting mobs(aataxes specifically) to attack certain spirits firsts. In my 2nd attempt at this I was able to clear everything up to the vale, up to the behemoths, and some smites.

Issue are with the smites now...they seem so buggy and glitchy. The first 2 groups I was able to make a line with my spirits and it worked great. They would kill them quickly but I could keep spawning spirits in a row or a semi circle and they kept following. The groups in the deeper part of that region however did not like my strat and would leash their aggro and go back to their spawn point too soon.

Vampirism is listed under 'Sunspear skills' from the trainer in the Great Hall.

Although I'm sure it's common knowledge, for those new to this build. Instead of multiple entries to the UW, you can always lug a hero along for res duties while you practice should something go badly. You can flag them far enough back to not affect the drops.

Personally to me, if you're doing this for straight farm profits, I would take the Rt on a few feather runs and sell the stack for 8or 9k a pop. Far less time consuming, and much easier. Then you can barter for the ecto. Granted this as long as consets are the rage.
