FoW Forest of The Wailing Lord

Scoundrels Rise Vanquish HM

N-Kryta Tengu Feather Farm HM

Nahpui Feather Farm

The build isn't the most original however I was surprised with some technique how well this build works. I only have a good ranger so I suspect a ritualist primary could do the run as well although expertise helps.

12 Expertise(use hat+superior rune)
8 Communing
10 Channeling
10 Restoration

Spirit Leech Aura
Signet of Spirits
Vampirism
Bloodsong
Pain
Shadowsong
Armor of Unfeeling
Feel No Pain(this slot im still experimenting with)

I have found that the entire uw(minus quests so far) can be solo'ed using this build however it is still in the experimental phases. A large of amount of the quests can be and all might be possible with more practice/thought into the run.

Here are some screen shots of the fun:

/////////////////////////////////UPDATE #1//////////////////////////////////////////////

I have found that 3 professions seem to have the most advantage running the build. Ritualist primary, Ranger primary, and Necro Primary because of their main attribute.
Things to point out for your spirit army based on your class:

#1)Rt primary your tanking spirit should be bloodsong with vampirism as a level wall.
#2)R/Rt or N/Rt the primary tanking spirit should be vampirism if you have max sunspear as it is your best tank.

Some Areas you can farm:

Minister Cho's Estate HM: The entire Mission
Defend Droknars Forge NM: Almost all mobs can be killed and the quest can be done
Lornars pass NM: A large amount of it I postulate a solo droks run of fighting the way is possible
UW SC Vale Support HM: The build seems to work alright for vale support
Twin Serpent Lakes NM: The entire zone
Fog Nightmares outside of TOA NM: All of them along with lots of other mobs out there
Mineral Springs NM: Lots of avicare and ice imps to kill
Breakers Hollow: Oni right outside to the right in NM or HM
TOPK NM: First Floor is possible not sure on second(A speed clear I believe is possible using a Shadow form sliver tank with a spirit wall player)
Raisu Palace NM: Some shiroken mobs can be farmed
Rhea's Crater NM: Almost all of the outcast can be farmed and its not a bad run
Piken Square HM: Char lots of them to solo they are semi easy
Fow various parts such as skeleton army NM: It takes some work and it is not the easiest but they are possible relatively fast with good pulling.
etc..

I also want to add in a Flat Bow is a must have item for this farming as it can make it so you take zero damage.

I will keep adding to that list as I think of them/test them out or as people post the spots. I know for a fact there is a ton more areas farmable just need to test/confirm.
Here are some new screens and I am also making progress on the team build and to those who pm'ed me about helping test it I may message you in the next week or so.

**This is not the complete update I am still getting everything else setup to upload pics/info**

How long did it take you to do this run?

mastar of warrior · Jun 29, 2009, 05:31 PM // 17:31

go Rt primary, and Assassin secondary, theres a way to solo the four horsemen quest, but not sure if you could fit that into ur build

Lord Zion · Jun 29, 2009, 06:02 PM // 18:02

Mind explaining the mechanics of the build?

Nice job!

Lord Of Blame · Jun 29, 2009, 06:28 PM // 18:28

Have you tried [painful bond] instead of [feel no pain]?

Wonder if that would be better?

ImDReaperslash · Jun 29, 2009, 06:34 PM // 18:34

looks really nice indeed but I think it's going to work a lot better with Rt primary.

Lord Xivor · Jun 29, 2009, 06:34 PM // 18:34

Do it in HM now. Anything can solo UW in NM...

What if you ran Duo rits? it would make the run faster and you could do some/most quests

I'd suggest bring a hero, but how would they do alone on 4h? (obviousally not the same spirits...)

Antares Ascending · Jun 29, 2009, 06:49 PM // 18:49

.

Wow, very nice. This would be awesome with a Rit primary.
Grats on an original approach .

Abedeus · Jun 29, 2009, 06:55 PM // 18:55

WOAH.

I'm so doing that tomorrow, either on Ranger or Ritualist...

Oh, Feel No Pain? Ritualist it is.

...Where's the catch? I think Feel No Pain can be changed for... Vital Weapon, Resilient Weapon, Recuperation (...nah), Spirit Light, Boon of Creation or Spirit's Gift.

Raudic · Jun 29, 2009, 07:12 PM // 19:12

YAY! maybe i can finally get some use out my ranger

Longasc · Jun 29, 2009, 07:14 PM // 19:14

Nice!

How about a Rit without Restoration and Painful Bond + Summon Spirits (+100 Heal)

yeah? get a Proffesion besides assassin, ranger and Ritualist and do the same thing he did.

x sithis x · Jun 29, 2009, 07:24 PM // 19:24

yay farming on ranger, but i do think a necro could do this too, soul reaping for energy >.>

any/assa with cons and candy for SF

and 55/ss team can do whole UW.

Longasc · Jun 29, 2009, 07:50 PM // 19:50

OK I did the run with some modifications.

First, I used a primary Rit. Then I swapped "I feel no pain" for Summon Spirits (Spirit Heal/Teleport). I suggest using Painful Bond instead of Armor of Unfeeling.

I decided to use three superior runes: Communing, Restoration, Channeling. I maxed channeling to 16.
*You need Spiritleech Aura for Smite Crawlers*, do not cast Painful Bond there (Smite Hex!).

I ran out of time today, but I think the build can be optimized. But it is already very very easy, but I think it cannot beat the usual farming builds in pure speed.

Good point. wasnt thinking of that

Actually, you said SOLO, so the 55/SS team wouldnt count

riktw · Jun 29, 2009, 08:54 PM // 20:54

looks really nice, showed it to my little bro( his first char is a rit ) and he /danced
but want to share how it works and how you use it?
looks really nice and looks like a reason to level my ranger.

looks like it can be done on any caster if you have high energy.

Helix Dreadlock · Jun 29, 2009, 09:12 PM // 21:12

Maybe spirit siphon for energy?

x sithis x · Jun 29, 2009, 09:22 PM // 21:22

ok at the beginning i take the quest & kill the graspings no problem, but the aaxte either kill spirits even with Spirit Leech Aura & when they dont kill them they like i guess rage quit & run away xD, i put the spirits in multiple places & the aatxe seam to get their way every time, do u just run past them when u have cons up? im lost xD, tell me what to do & in the mean time ima experiment with more dmg, im thinking pain inverter will be nice on cold fires lol

nvr mind i put painful bond in & its goin super fast & smooth lol
