VERSION 4.O is out and has been updated on the opening post!!! I absolutely LOVE the change I made to the ST Rit. Here are some details to the changes I made.

1. ST Shelter Rit- Made a HUGE overhaul on his setup changing from away to guard. First off I changed his secondary to mesmer and loaded him up with e-management and interupts and gave him Protective was Kaolai, the only item heros use well. With dual PwK you can get back party wide heals in excess of 250h.p. Also, changed the runes so that he is now running 12-comm 12-spawn 9-resto 9-inspiration. Trust me you will fall in love with this build....it's simply the BEST and run it on all my hero setups. Note I dropped Vital weapon so that won't be spammed when you absolutely NEED a Shelter. All he does now is use Shelter and interupt. Although I dropped Vital Weapon, I did keep a weapon spell with the NEW Rit healer.

2. Rit/Mes-Healer- This Hero provides way more healing power then the Necro and MOST importantly does not drop spirits around everywhere which slow him down and occasionally cause back agro. Also, he has interupts so make sure to set him to guard. The e-management is amazing as I think you will agree when running him. Lastly, his healing is incredible with Spirit Light Weapon and higher attribute points make your PwK more effective over a Necro.


3. I added Ice Imp to my build as my optional skill slot to help with balling groups around the EVaS. I typically bring a partner for fun or an alt account for extra drops and one of them typically brings LoD for hidden treasures. However, Ice Imp can be dropped for LoD if your doing this solo.

4. The rest of the builds have minor adjustments not really worth talking about except adding complicate on the Panic mesmer for more AoE interupts on Fendi.

This was playtested and averaged 6,7,14min floors with 7 hero's and no LoD with Ice Imp and Rit Healer. Out of 10 runs I died one time on Fendi because I chased after him and unflagged my hero's. No personal cons or summoning stones were used.

I hope this is my final update to this build and TYTY for all the support and positive feedback. Oh and like previous posts have stated: this does work very well in most dungeons. Good luck and happy FENDI hunting!!!

Im not the best at the all the workings of a computer like video'ing runs, but I can ask someone in my guild who does to tag along as my partner and tape it. I will try and get this done during the week and have it uploaded as soon as I can.

However, and I have stated this numerous times on this thread, pm me in game and I will gladly take you on one of my runs.

On bridge he has a bad habbit and wipes me often

Genius Was Revrac you sir are a legend!


Just done it with heroes 4.0 got to say love the ideas with the ST and the healer.
Just done 2 runs 1 with the full 4.0 set up was a decent 28mins
Run 2 was 28mins but instead of Mo/P RoJ/Fallback:Owkj4wQjJP+MUi1veS9dJ41dMA
I used your original idea of Roj shouter:Owki4wm84zQJ1TrP92HXj3xA
and to be honest with you the shouter; you have a lot more play with any foes that break aggro boom you have protection up with ST and the Shouter that makes any spikes from the enemy's easier to handle and that also takes pressure off the healer

I plan to go again asap to see if I can beat my time lol I'm now addicted to SoO


Great work this was 1 of my least favorite dungeons in the game

Yeah the Shouter build can be nice for more damage mitigation but I go for pure speed and if you can pull correctly when needed, and throw the sin when needed 4.0 has more damage. That being said, aint nothing wrong with the shouter in there.

And tyty for the kind words....i luv it

i read but i didn't see it posted i might have over looked it is ice imp really needed vampirism or even using boon of creation is better than ice imp due to the long casting time of ice imp and the little pay off it is. over boon of creation evas will even give you the health and energy bonus of boon of creation also

Yeah Ice Imp can be dropped from the bar, and Deep Freeze can be put on Gwen. Of course this will mean she cant be the dedicated "rezmer" so make sure to add We Shall Return to one of the monks. I in fact have been testing some new bars for the Human Rit role, experimenting with Ancestors rage, Spirit Rift, etc. and will post some optional build templates real soon.

ok i was just wondering thanks for the input i wasnt really for sure cause when i went throwing down the sprits wasn't a problem but would be better maintained with boon of creation since your really using them as like a wall/body block and then just rethrow them back up easier when they die

I was lucky enough to come along with Genius Was Revrac last night for a run and it was great! He showed me where to flag the heroes and which groups I could avoid. Here's a screenshot of where to flag the heroes before the big room on the 2nd level - I had been having a lot of trouble there but this positioning really helped out!

Thanks again Revrac

I tried it myself, and using a Mo/Rt is possible, however the lack of spawning power makes it very vulnerable, so I prefer taking a friend with me who can Rt/Any and SoS instead of using it myself. Adding another RoJ makes things go lulzboom even quicker.
