Cool UW farming, first timer ^^

before i say anything, i have searched and scanned the guru over and over and all i have reached were dead ends, no clear statements about solo/group builds or equipment templates.

I never went to Fow or UW before so i dont know how the area looks like, and i didnt find a good solo farming build, nor a team one, that is simple to understand ((since what i've seen so far needs some knowledge about UW map)).

so if anyone can show me a good solo or non-solo and hero underworld build and required equipment for it i would be very grateful.

and plz dont tell me to google or wiki it cuz i've already done that, and my guildies dont have ele, only the leader and one officer ((but their pc got formated so...))

and if u have any tips or monsters i should be wary about plz...tell me

thnks for the help

I too haven't done UW since ursan, so it would be interesting what builds are running these days. But im gonna hazard a guess and say Mo/Me Roj/Cry way? no eles allowed? =\

This is the build i'd run:

[skill]ebon battle standard of wisdom[/skill][skill]mindbender[/skill][skill]ether renewal[/skill][skill]deep freeze[/skill][skill]arcane echo[/skill][skill]cry of pain[/skill][skill]aura of restoration[/skill][skill]illusion of weakness[/skill]

With a high rank in ebon (6+) theres a high chance that arcane echo + cry of pain will quickly recharge meaning endless spam, endless energy, and deep freeze = keep your aggro balled up. Aura of restoration + ether renewal heal you every skill for about 80ish meaning monks don't have to pay attention to you if aggro does slip.

Illusion of weekness is there just for an extra enchantment for ether renewal.

Only problem is...UWSC is for RoJ lol.

first thing i would do in your case is go on some 55/SS runs to get a basic feel for the UW and some of its areas.

then study the UW Speed Clear builds on GW PvX, and watch some videos of the various runs on youtube.

try some of the runs by yourself before joining a speed clear group to get some more experience under your belt.

EDIT: realized this was in the elementalist forum - ele's aren't that common in UW groups. only sins, and random necros & monks. FOW is mostly cryway & Ray of Judgement - as an ele you have [ether renewal], and can do [arcane echo]+[cry of pain], with other enchants to have infinite energy.

that would probably be your best bet, imo.

I'm afraid you aren't going to learn what you need inside this forum. For what you want to do, you need to get down there and experience some of it for yourself.

You should either join a more capable guild, or get your GL to ally with a stronger PvE guild, preferably one that uses Ventrillo or Teamspeak. The easiest and best way to learn about UW and FoW is to go there with people that can explain things as you go.

Upon your first visit to FoW, the most important thing to remember are the following 4 words: "Don't talk to Rastigan."

You can solo with your ele in UW, but it takes alot to do it. you need a 20% enchant on your weapon and maintain 15 in shadow arts for shadow form, do that with grail of might, golden egg, candy corn, and u could use lunar blessing, must also have a celerity going. If you have all these going, u will have 16 in sf and 20 in earth magic for sliver armor to kick some major butt. this is very expensive but it can be done
