Curse

I have been working on a build to Farm Glint's Challenge solo with a warrior.

Now I need some advice. I already checked PvX and there are no more real builds to do this.

Here is what I've been thinking of.

Player and hero combo.

Player: W/A
Template Code: OQcUI3a5nPT8I6MHQEQ5i1FKF7g
Axe Mastery: 11 +1 +3
Tactics: 5
Deadly Arts: 3
Shadow Arts: 12
Build:
1) Deadly Paradox
2) Shadowform
3) Shroud of Distress
4) Way of Perfection
5) Ebon Battle Standard of Honor
6) Deflect Arrows
7) Cyclone Axe
8) Whirlwind Attack

Hero: M/N
Template Code: OwQUc025UYK6j8MPiUv/G5hlA
Divine Favor: 9 +3
Healing Prayers: 7 +1
Smiting Prayers: 10 +1
Curses: 10
Build:
1) Watchful Spirit
2) Balthazar's Spirit
3) Strength of Honor
4) Mending
5) Spell Shield
6) Awaken the Blood
7) Mark of Pain
8) Spiteful Spirit

EBSoH will be used to increase the spell damage of MoP and SS and cap my damage to the max of 21 allowed by SF.

Strength of Honor does not add to the weapons max damage and is also armor ignoring damage so it should help with extra damage to foes in the area.

As I need SF I can't use Hundred Blades in this build. The aim is to draw all the destroyers into a group and have the M/N maintain enchantments to keep me alive and for energy management and to cast MoP and SS while I cast EBSoH to increase the spell damage so that I can spike.

The hero will be drawn into the battle after I have pulled and grouped the destroyers together and he will use Spell Shield to avoid being nuked by enchant removal.

Maybe a second hero could be used as Me/N. To use echo and arcane echo to cast multiple MoP on Different targets for major AoE Spike.

Please advise me on this.

Using heroes to go in and use a spell (or with ur Me/N, several times) can end with failure, but i have not tested the build myself,but what runes do u use? i can try it out,and give u some tips

That's the build with runes and recommended equipment. I will also start testing tonight to see if it works and then try and tweak it as needed.

I do have other chars that I can use, but that's too much effort getting them to the end of EotN.

But let me know how it goes.

** Swapped out Watchful Spirit for Essence Bond for energy management for the hero **

isnt vengefull weapon going to kill you? i farm this with my r/a btw

Me no, the M/N yes as soon as his Spell Shield wears off.

So if you have any advice for me on this build please let me know.
I tried a variant where I was alone, but the guys on PVX shot it down and said it would take toooooo long to farm destroyer cores.

It did take long and had high failure rate because you really had to concentrate with the build.

Ebon Battle Standard of Honor will not increase damage that ignores armor. Therefore, EBSoH has no effect on the damage from Spiteful Spirit or Mark of Pain.

Cool thanks for the info.

Will use the slot for something else then. Also I will remove Spell Shield and Spiteful Spirit and add Spellbreaker instead for protection for M/N.

I will also add Blessed Aura to increase Spellbreaker duration. Maybe I can cast MoP on second foe and have double MoP spike when I attack.

Still experimenting, will let you know how it goes.
