First i don't play the wurms enough to know but...... wouldn't it take forever to solo them. i mean a group of 4+ would rape you? right?

myself and another fellow elemental sword seeker tried out some other ele builds there last night, trying to find a true solo build that doesn't involve shadow form. the shadow form method is too slow, imo...15 seconds or so of fighting, and 45 seconds of waiting for SF to recharge is kinda sucky. we made some other E/D builds that work well but run into energy problems eventually, and rending sweep can throw quite the monkey wrench into the plan.

so we gave up and took turns using the standard SF build. one in, while one recharges. we cleared it super quick and got lots of nice loot, but no ele sword yet

was nice to not have to tell heroes what to do, and not have to split gold with the ungrateful bastards.

Use deadly paradox + recall on someone/some hench. It will have a 30 sec recharge, just like sliver armor.

I haven't tried to solo it in a wurm, would take too long if even possible. Seems to me the best way is to have 2 E/A and swap runs in. Everything was ready to go by the time it was your turn. I only did it once and we had 4 or 5 gold drops.

u can also solo this ! just run to the last shrine in wurm form and then aggro the necros and die near ritu boss. then u can run through them!

Vapor_Fighter · May 19, 2007, 07:54 PM // 19:54

a little time consuming but very nice build

My Green Storage · May 19, 2007, 08:02 PM // 20:02

Showed guildies this run.
One of them had it dropped.
Screenshot, saw it.

... went to minimize the game ... closed the game out on accident.

Goodbye Elemental Sword. lol

anyways from a chest at the same area.... r13 =(

@ Znxjanx Yea it's what this weekend is so why not try for one. Also someone in this thread or the other thread said he/she got on in this area/chest

znxjanx · May 20, 2007, 12:48 PM // 12:48

:O chest farming there eh?
sounds interesting

S H A D O W S O U L · May 20, 2007, 02:49 PM // 14:49

Well here's what I use. The same build but Recall goes out and I use Deadly Paradox. I also use shadow of haste instead of Feigned.

Shadow Form
Silver Armor
Crystal wave
tenai's crystal's
glyph of elemental power
deadly paradox
shadow of haste
Death's charge

I go in like this:

Glyph -> Deadly Paradox -> Shadow Form -> Shadow of Haste

When Shadow Form is near the end simply use Deadly paradox. The new stance will erase Shadow and you'll Shadow Step out of there.

In my point of view this is quicker than the recall one.

2 of my friends were farming there as wurms, and opened chests too, on their 3rd run they got a req12 ele sword from chests in the temple

. Maybe we just have to chestrun the temple? :O Sounds faster

Mad King Corn · May 20, 2007, 05:55 PM // 17:55

Chestruns are not possible in the temple unless you click all the shrines first, the chest spawns randomly upon clicking a shrine.

NOT true!! in all my chest runs this weekend with my warrior it has spawned reguardlees if i clicked the shrines or not. IT doest not always spawn.

Also running A/E the chest has appeared reguardless of clicking on the shrines. but I'm saving the keys for my warrior.

can provide ss if needed

Xiaxhou of Trinity · May 20, 2007, 11:35 PM // 23:35

sry nub to updates; so does soloing still amount more drops than running a team of 8? or does soloing mean that rarer items drop for you instead of others? if not, would farming this quest with a team of 8 wurms be plausible for finding an ele sword?

The build is nice, i use an SF build in hidden city HM though i have fire nukes on Xp. I just can't bear fighting through with henchmen just to farm, i no like walking =/

Phantomice · Jun 06, 2007, 12:07 PM // 12:07

Second run for me Req 10 15^50 Enchant 19%

hotman · Jun 06, 2007, 02:07 PM // 14:07

hey phanto, u can solo with that build cant u?

also, if u run to the monoliths, how do u get rid of the pop ups before them?

(hero and me)

Tempo · Jun 06, 2007, 11:10 PM // 23:10

wow, that really works?
amazing. and you are doing this in HM?
wow again.
how hard is this build to maintain? do you need to pay really close attention or is it not bad? also, how long is the average HM run?

ArKaiN · Jun 07, 2007, 12:11 AM // 00:11

its not fast, its not easy, and if you don't know how the build works you'll be scewing it up.
But yes, it works.

Francis Crawford · Jun 07, 2007, 01:11 AM // 01:11

Why isn't Signet of Humility a problem?
