Daedra:

Do you do this run in NM or HM? I just cant seem to get past those pesky stormclouds in HM. Guess I'm doing something wrong.

Same here, cover with sliver, they remove, im running they get a second soulrending shriek off and im toast!
Cant seem to break agro without them managing a second shriek, even if im lucky enough to only encounter 1 (which doesnt happen often!)

NM or HM whichever I feel like, are you guys using any source of a speed boost?

TBH, in HM the Stormclouds spawn is more of a chance/luck thing, if its bad just resign and it will take you outside Bogroots.

Yeah, I'm running with a cupcake. I've been thinking of dropping IAU for Dash, for the initial boost to break aggro.

yea that may work a little better

Any way to speed up the killing?

I'm having real problems 600ing Rragar's, using hero smiter and QZ ranger(is this really needed?), and basically I get to the first group, SB and prot up and spam spirit bond but they still kill me...help?

If, you are referring to me, no not in a big way, use golden eggs, candy corns, lunar blessings, and getting up your vanguard title (if its not max) are the only ways I can think that can help the damage any, and this will barely help.

Oh yea and a Grail, but thats not worth it.

I can't handle the stormclouds on lvl 2 bogroots : /

If i was running ppl then i could get them to like..... place a lot of enchants on me just anyone that lasts long.

Okay im reeally having trouble with these stormclouds somtimes the spawn is so bad theres about 10 of the buggers flying around..... if u ever come back from your ban D could i ask for a route around the stormcloud area? the safest way. I did try using a hero to spam enchants over my SF as much as possible but the 2 times i tried the spawns where so bad they ripped through 8 enchants + silver armor + shadow sanc O_O

How are the drops from the chest in NM? and is the frog sep a very rare drop?

I've been able to do this run, from Doomlore to end chest, in 35 mins (that was with Ranger/A though). In theory a Perma Sin should work just as well if not better than a R/A.

Mad props to you, this build and strategy works like a charm. Cheers very much

Anyone got any ideas how to 600/smite Destruction depths? id thought i would ask here before i try anything myself.

From what i seen Mantra of Resolve is needed for destroyer of deeds. Possibly Arcane echo Spell breaker as there is a lot of enchant removal. Mist vets bring IW which means they take no dmg from smite bonds so possibly remove enchant or some 2nd hero to take care of these guys. hf making the build

Note: yea i know its not a dungeon per say xP

As I have troubles keeping my monk hero alive while doing CoF I thought
I'd give the mesmer one a go.. but I noticed the template code put 12 in Fast Casting but 0 in Smiting.. wich needless
to say made it impossible to kill anything.. or am I missing something here?
But after changing to 12 in smiting it works great.. far better survivability for the smiter.

You are supposed to have the mesmer set to 16 illlusion magic. Then use Signet of Illusions to make your bonds set to the 16 attribute.

It was my first run, I've ever done and I've had a lot of luck.
You have to spam all your Enchantment and not to lose PS and keeping up SB
Something to remove your Death Penalty is also usefull/necessary

There are 4 in your party.
Can you post the fourth build ?

Nice builds, Saft... I was able to fight Taskmaster Bellock, but my stupid heroes aggro'd them to the Res Shinre, and I was kicked out after that xD
