Awesome

I'm downloading it right now. I'll put it in my Dreadnought's Drift section very soon

Holy smokes, very nice work.

It's handy to have all these solo builds in one spot, too.

Good luck on your further endeavors, and thank you for sharing this with the community. I'm sure everyone appreciates it.

Update! Check out the bottem of the page. W/Rit Solo the Forest of the Wailing Lord, it can also take the Abyssals and Shadow Rangers at the Tower of Courage.

I haven't done it in a long while, but I'll get on my warrior, dust off my old build, and see if I can post a SS.

I've soloed Darda before with my W/Mo, so I'm pretty sure that this still can be done, especially with Evennia in tow.

Witte's build definitely cannot solo Darda due to the lack of an interrupt.

A very well timed Disrupting Chop >>> Darda, FYI.

I never needed to kill him, so why bring a disrupt?xD Still have to try it since I heards he doesn't spawn random anymore

I was checking out the new update and checking your screenhots, you kept mention "distract their troll ungent" but had no Distracting blow on your skillset (in the screenshots) and i was like O_o WTF? ... but alas, the n00b in me decided to check the skillset before the screenshots and there it was :P

Witte Was · Oct 04, 2006, 06:18 PM // 18:18

LOL yeah

I forgot Distracting Blow when testing the build and making the screenshots. Will change it soon

You killed the Mursaat Elementalists and Jade Armors with a wammo? I would like to see that

Loshi · Oct 05, 2006, 08:37 AM // 08:37

At the beginning of your thread, you posted that you could solo Dragon's Lair.

Any chance you want to do a write-up about that? Would be awfully excellent.

By the way, thanks for the W/Rt Forest farm. I've been doing it with my R/Me, and ound it aggravating. Hadn't thought of going so strongly Rt like you did. Good idea.

And here I thought I was out of FoW forever. Damn Anet for nerfing Knights Boots AFTER I get FoW version.

posmo · Oct 05, 2006, 10:05 AM // 10:05

in your FoW forest guide, in the screenshots, you use a long sword and the exalted aegis.. what are the stats on the longsword(s) you use?

Witte Was · Oct 05, 2006, 04:22 PM // 16:22

For the run I use one with a +30 health pommel because of the heavy degen you might get. When I'm in combat, I use a Zealous Longsword of Defense (1/-1 and + 5 armor) Although, when I fight the Sephreds, I take the one with the +30hp since I may not come in melee range

Whoops - misread this. I don't pass up the prison, I follow the storyline, so there's no need to take on the massive group of Mursaat.

Here's the sequence you have to get down...

1. Disrupting Chop Darda's Mark of Protection.
2. Disrupting Chop Darda's Orison of Healing.
3. The Dolyak Master will then cast Mark of Protection on Darda.
4. Your goal is to kill the Dolyak Master. Start to apply serious offensive pressure on the Dolyak once 1-3 occur. You only have about 20 seconds before Darda's Orison charges back up.
5. If you can Disrupting Chop the Dolyak's Orison as well, it's a bonus, but isn't required if you can apply enough damage (i.e. you can outdamage the heals). Do NOT apply deep wound (i.e. Eviscerate is a bad idea), as Darda will use Mend Ailment and will heal the Dolyak. A spammable, high damage axe attack is preferred (hint, hint).

After you kill the Dolyak, it's time to get the heck outta dodge. After you're fully healed, it's time to repeat #1 and #2 on Darda, which should be much simpler than the first attack sequence.

The rangers are annoying, but if you can't offset the damage caused by the rangers without pausing, chances are you won't make it to this stage anyways. And no, I don't carry Sprint...

Jetdoc · Oct 05, 2006, 05:39 PM // 17:39

By the way, can you tell that Disrupting Chop is one of my favorite skills?

Witte Was · Oct 05, 2006, 07:38 PM // 19:38

Update: Added the full guide of the W/Rit Forest of the Wailing Lord! It's insane

I can even kill the Skeleton Army in the Forest!

manager · Oct 05, 2006, 08:25 PM // 20:25

pssst, Witte, you're using Soothing Memories instead of Weapon of Warding. Quick, change the skill listing before anyone sees!

Btw, are you still using those attributes? Wouldn't help to have more Strength for a bigger Dolyak ?

Witte Was · Oct 05, 2006, 08:58 PM // 20:58

'Huh what I don't see any Weapon of Warding

Thanks m8

I still use the same tactics, I've full restoration since I really like the high damage / healing gained by Vengeful Was Khanhei

manager · Oct 05, 2006, 09:07 PM // 21:07

oh..i meant decreasing Tactics since it's only being used for WY & Healing Sig. With Soothing Memories you(we :P ) now have another heal method so is there really a need for that high tactics?

I'm still a n00b at this(2 months) so disregard my question if it sounds too pathetic
