~20-25 runs, !0! dead swords. LoL.

Messy · Feb 15, 2007, 04:49 PM // 16:49

I just got this one..... on my 3rd run

This is what I used, it works very well, and it takes like 10m.

[card]Mantra Of Earth[/card] [card]Stone Striker[/card] [card]Stoneflesh Aura[/card] [card]Arcane Echo[/card] [card]Sliver Armor[/card] [card]Sandstorm[/card] [card]Glyph Of Concentration[/card] [card]Sympathetic Visage[/card]

The Slave Warriors have savage slash, so make sure you use Glyph of concentration before casting anything, and SV should drain them . Aside from that, just echo Sliver Armor or Sandstorm. Now, every now and then, when you fight the 2 groups, you might die, it gets kind of intense, and if you forget Glypgh of Concentration, chances are Stoneflesh Aura gets interrupted... no biggie, you rez right there, shake off the dirt, and go back and finish them off. Perfectly doable with 15 and even 30 dp. Don't waste candy canes.

Lol, it's called luck. Lololololololololololol

Seriously, don't think this is some get rich scheme where every run gets you a Dead Sword that is req9.

Senrath · Feb 15, 2007, 10:44 PM // 22:44

*sigh* I can understand that this takes a while, but seriously, 17 runs and the best item was the single purple I netted on the 16th run. It was a Healing Ankh >.<

I'm definitely gonna go do something else for a while before my next run.

Oh, and I'd like to note that with the build Dont Mess WithMe posted, you can take on both groups at once, though if you screw up you're dead pretty much instantly if you're doing that XD

onerabbit · Feb 15, 2007, 11:13 PM // 23:13

Yeh, i only got 4 golds in total, 3 dead swords, 1 shield, crap loads of purples though, but its not really profitable, unless u get a deadsword every few runs.

Senrath · Feb 16, 2007, 01:33 AM // 01:33

Well, it might not be the most profitable, but it's easy, and now that I've gotten the hang of it, I don't die anymore. Oh, and a piece of advice, unless you really want whatever random drops the monks give you, avoid killing the ones that come with the last 2 groups, since they don't (to my knowlege) drop dead swords.

Thom Bangalter · Feb 16, 2007, 01:53 AM // 01:53

they drop gold offhands and wands though, so you can get perfect wand wrappings (20% hsr) and possibly 20% hsr offhand mods. Why would you not want to kill them?

Senrath · Feb 16, 2007, 01:59 AM // 01:59

well, that is true. however, if you're just after a dead sword (like me), they take extra time and wont drop said sword.

Domon Kasho · Feb 16, 2007, 02:04 AM // 02:04

ive gotten 2 dead swords and 3 gold shields,(req8 and req10 swords) and i have done total 7 runs so yeah luck is the answer here

Neriandal Freit · Feb 16, 2007, 02:04 AM // 02:04

Ok, I've got to ask a horrible question - how is it you guys get to this area by your self and not taking henchmen along with you?

IE: the part from Bone Palace to the area and the monsters in between, because 1 Wurm can't take on 4 Sandstrom Crags, + 30 Undead

protein · Feb 16, 2007, 02:07 AM // 02:07

you run it you dont fight

Neriandal Freit · Feb 16, 2007, 02:10 AM // 02:10

Your wurm, how can you do that with those enemys in between there with out suffering a fair DP?

Arkantos · Feb 16, 2007, 02:13 AM // 02:13

You use the run skill. I never have any close encounters to death.

Skuld · Feb 16, 2007, 02:18 AM // 02:18

Req 10 command ancient shield with a 130hp D/Mo, never even seen that skin before o.O I die a lot -.- monk has completed the quest and ele needs to get there

Senrath · Feb 16, 2007, 02:21 AM // 02:21

Besides, all the builds posted can function with a death or two, so as long as you make it close to the rez shrine close to the ravines, it doesn't matter if you die or not.

Neriandal Freit · Feb 16, 2007, 02:22 AM // 02:22

Okie dokie then, I must give it ago..many thanks.

tuna-fish_sushi · Feb 16, 2007, 03:07 AM // 03:07

Am I the only one having a problem with them running? Or is there some secret i dont know about ive been killing the first group with them running and it takes forever. For those of you that says wand them its kind of hard to wand when your holding an item (obviously running w/Rt)
