First of all, thank you, onerabbit, for sharing this with us, and great guide.

Just want to add that it is quite easy to kill War Captain Womack on this run as well. It won't work some of the time, depending on if he runs up the stairs or not(I've still managed to pull him from the bottom of the stairs even if he runs into the building, but you need to pull him out of spell range from the monks.).

Basically, just run up the stairs and hang a right or left all the way to the corner, and kill Lord Senkai as normal. Womack should have just stopped running to the bottom of the stairs. If so, run into the Luxon mob and die. Run back to Womack from the Res shrine, and pull him with a long/flatbow. He will split from his group, and pursue you alone, so kill him.

I used the 55 N/Mo build for this, just hit Prot Spirit while your arrow is flying, Insidious Parasite, then SS to take him down(You'll need both as he has Healing Signet). Necrosis will speed things up, too, and a Mo/N should have no problem.

This only adds a minute or so to the run, and you can of course get Elite tomes, passage scrolls, or whatnot in Hard mode. My interest in this farm is for Luxon faction, so adding 250 for 1 minute is not bad at all.

Build:
[skill]Protective Spirit[/skill][skill]Shielding Hands[/skill][skill]Shield of Absorption[/skill][skill]Insidious Parasite[/skill][skill]Spiteful Spirit[/skill][skill]Mark of Pain[/skill]

[skill]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill]

How do u activate the luxon faction? .. lol =o

u need to speak to some one or something?

MisterB · Aug 15, 2007, 12:37 PM // 12:37

Talk to the Luxon Priest, and pay 100 gold.

After trying this more, it seems the pathing/scripting of this quest is not consistent. Sometimes Womack stays with his group at the bottom, sometimes he runs with his group in a giant Kurzick/Luxon mob, and he sometimes leaves his Kurzick buddies at the bottom of the stairs to hang with the Luxon mob.

I'll try to test it more, but it may just require careful timing, or possibly pulling Senkai to a different position. I'll post again if I can find a consistent method.

edit:My bad, War Captain is not a boss, so no bonus faction. He is still easy to kill, though.

MisterB · Aug 18, 2007, 09:34 PM // 21:34

Yeah, this farm totally blows. I only got 3 Superior Vigors here, Platinum Swords, Sickles, and Wands, 2 Chromium Shards, and a bunch of other gold armor junk. It takes so long, too. I mean, 4 minutes? Who has that kind of time, really?

Because I've had results along these lines.

It's not really worth it (IMO that is) if you're not farming in HM. The only farming I'll do in Normal Mode is UW/FoW, or a boss that couldn't be soloed for some reason in Hard Mode.

Anyways, thanks to this farm, I've got some cash flowing in now

Just beginning this farm tonight (I made 4 runs.) I got some gold Kourambits, a hell of a lot of runes (3 Sup Absorption), A lot closer to my second wisdom title, and some money. FTW.

Crusheer · Sep 14, 2007, 07:45 PM // 19:45

Can its be done w/o that quest?

onerabbit · Sep 14, 2007, 08:11 PM // 20:11

Re-reading this reminds me of a probable bug in the quest:
Captain Womack does not seem to count as a boss. He is only lvl 20 (too low for HM) and you don't get any boss faction for killing him. Since he doesn't have a green either, there is no point in going after him.
