The main trouble I have is when it *looks* like there is space to get through but actually there is not and you get caught, then you die. I might start clear the first chamber just for the fun of it. I can only be bother to do 1 (maybe 2) runs a day anyway so I might as well kill all I can in those runs.

Thank you, OP! I have been using the MoR/LF build with great success; 23-24 min runs are typical.

A few hints to anyone who cares.

1) Put a + enchanting mod on your longbow; this way you don't have to keep switching back and forth while you are pulling mobs together.

2) Having around 50-60 HP when you agro Banished Riders and Specters will keep them from scattering. I use a vamp. weapon to make sure my HP doesn't go up higher than that.

Good Hunting all!

Pretty sure that the +enchanting only matters when you're casting enchantments and remains in effect if you swap weapons, so you wouldn't need to have a longbow of enchanting unless you're casting with your bow.

Yes, the enchant remains. But I found while I am pulling, I have to recast SF and have forgotten to swap weapons first which resulted in death. Having the +enchants on the bow just makes it easier.

You can trigger traps without taking damage? :/

Pl0x to make video and YouTube it for demonstration purposes.

Use a speed buff and run near the behes then quickly pull back, they'll trigger but won't catch you. Or you can sometimes run past them if there's enough space.

Do you press S and walk back or press X to do a 180?

Hmmm....not sure what to say on this. All I've used for 40+ runs is dash, nothing else. With dash, I don't even bother trying to trigger traps before running over them. 50% is more than enough to just run straight over them, even 25% from djinns is often enough. Just find the hole if you can fit through it, and use dash just before you hit adjacent range (you'll figure out really quick what adjacent is when farming planes, for when balling dream riders). If there is a hole, I've never missed it yet. If there isn't enough space to get through, you'll find out real quick.

Ambuu · Jun 11, 2008, 01:12 AM // 01:12

I've gotten lucky and had no deaths from traps. It is all about finding the hole and going through, so to speak. Flame Djinn's Haste is what I use, and that is enough.

On a side note, I almost died once from lag. Got hit by traps, quickly switched to a +30 weapon, and got hit by charged blackness' shock. Was left with 2 health, and still made it to the plains. Talk about luck.

Lag is my favorite player. But I kind of figured out how to trigger traps without getting hit today when 4 Behemoths were clogging the doorway to start my route to Chaos Plains. Set them off and then squeezed my way ever so tightly between him and a wall.

fenix · Jun 11, 2008, 02:45 AM // 02:45

The downside for me, is when I try to squeeze through it doesn't just work that easily. For the most part I rubber band because I somehow get stuck against the Behemoths....

not sure if this was mentioned alrdy but if u keep ure health below like 90 with a vamp switch the monsters wont scatter with the fire build so it makes killing quicker

Mentioned a few times.

this build is awesome, a guildie told me about it and in a couple weeks of casual farming I was able to get two elite armor sets a couple minis.

I modded it a little to make the run easier and it seems that some people are having issues with the run so I thought I'd post my variant to see if and I could help some people out. I use Phoenix and Flame Djinn's for PBAoE skills/run and in my last slot I have feigned neutrality, which makes it to where the only way you can fail a run is by complete body block. As long as you have FN up, no amount of traps can kill you. It also reduces a blacknesses' shock to ~20dmg if they keep killing you. This made the run really easy, now I only fail at it about 1/10 times when there is a complete, impassable behemoth body block.

Well anyway, thanks for creating this build and I hope I was able to help someone.

I'm sorry but did this post remind anyone else of Dodgeball?

"No amount of traps can kill you"

"No amount of balls on earth can hit you"

I love that movie.

Nemesis of God · Jun 11, 2008, 07:32 AM // 07:32

I've farm 26 ectoes yesterday, from 6 run. I'm using MoR + LF. For running skill I use Dark Escape, since half damage from traps and Charged Blackness. Haven't died from trap yet. If there looks like I trigger trap even with DE, I use cupcake.
TYVM for OP.
