The Future of Hydra farming my w/mo riposte build
Me updated = 27/10/06 - after nightfall update
Dont worry .... be happpy
loook look no changes to build... no changes by nerf
only a better dealy riposte!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
found this build very effective, and cheap... it requires no fancy axes/swords, you could do this build with a 1-2 dmg sword
ok heres the build
Armor
platemail/weaven/dragon (90 armor)....
sentinal (100 armor) if trualy the best ... if you've got factions
Runes
suprior/major/minor vigor
suprior tactics
suprior strength
your helm should be +1 strength too
you should had done both attribute quests
Attributes
8 healing (yep your healing source, if your having a hard time lower your tactics and inscrease healing)
15 strength (11+4) (this is for defy pain + doylak sigit, with 15 strength you will have
14 tactics (11+3) (your dmg output, the higher the tactics , the faster your kills)
Skills
Flurry (this will inscrease your adrenaline gain + healing)
Riposte (your primary dmg.. spam it like an idiot)
deadly riposte (your secondary dmg)
defy pain {elite} (your savior keep on at all times when facing more than 3)
doylak sigit... = god...lol... keep on at all times when fighting hydra
vigerious spirit ... its required after 3 hydra
live vicously (keep on from when you leave augury... then forever)
balthzars spirit (same as live vicously)
the ideal (not neccary setup)
furious sword of warding/defence is your best bet
good 16 armor sheild (if rich have + armor vs fire)
ok once u leave augury rock at north exit spack blathzars spirit on and live vicasouly.
dont worry about energy when u run into the hydra with even 0 energy it will be fine.
as soon as u run into a group doylak sigit before fireball/metoer hit u (u should know when after a bit of farming) once or if u have 5 energy cast vigerous spirit, and by now they should had started to move into you and you health should be around 1/2 or 3/4 depending on the size of the group you faced.
start slashing away at the nearest enimie and do defy pain and then flurry and then spam the hell out of riposte and deadly risposte.
Flurry is very important, without it you have less healing over time and less dmg given out, you should be able to keep it on at all times with 4+ hydra
doyalk sigit should be on at all times too, and defy pain
if riposte/deadly riposte kills the hydra you are slashing instantly change target to keep the healing + adrenal gain going. and continue. this kills them nice and fast and if you do it right your healing>dmg and you will build yourself up to like your max health.
takes practice but you'll get the hang of it
the normal design of teh build
15 strength (+4)
14 tactics (+3) = (if your beginning try with 11 tactics (+1) for higher health)
8 healing
flurry
riposte
-blank-
*elite* = (defy pain/healing hands/gladiators defence)
doylak sigit
vigerous spirit
live vicously
balthzars spirit/sprint (if you take sprint you must take a zealous sword)
will mainly work on....
grawls =====(blank = watchyourself, elite = gladiators defence)
griffons =====(blank = watchyourself, elite = gladiators defence)
trolls =====(blank = watchyourself, elite = gladiators defence, swap balthzars spirit for sprint and take zealous hilted sword)
azure shadows =====(blank = watchyourself, elite = gladiators defence, swap balthzars spirit for sprint and take zealous hilted sword)
enchanteds =====(blank = deadly riposte, elite = defy pain)
hydra's =====(blank = deadly riposte, elite = defy pain)
mangho hydra's =====(blank = watchyourself, elite = defy pain)
sand giants =====(blank = deadly riposte, elite = healing hands)
turda giants =====(blank = deadly riposte, elite = gladiators defence)

dont bother with underworld it would work there on the aaxte if they didn't use ripsote and deady riposte.

That, and their ungodly 100-300 damage strikes that Dolyak Signet will scarcely negate.
Good build though -tanking 8 hydras is a feat. And creative, since you have 0 attribute points for your weapon.

i've got black dyes , mainly ele stuff i got like tons of staffs and wands and a few weapons , but i enjoy farming with it and it works other places as shown above. some serious practice and u will be able to take 10. love the fact that the more u hi the more u heal, and gain adrenaline for riposts , so it's balanced.

Ye new update in the build:
if u want to take on the mangh hydra use watch yourself insted of deadly riposte.
and if u want to take bigger groups of hydra 12+ do that on them too.
u only get like once chance on the run to get that many at once.

Hmm it would be cool if you could fit hundred blades in there because look at it this way-- if you're getting all this health from constantly hitting hydras you would swing twice which would give you the health you normally get with two hits and then you swing once at every target.
If you have 6 hydras on you it goes this way:
Vigorous Spirit adds +10 to health regain and let's say Live Vicariously gives you +15. That is 25 health regain on one hit. Now 25x2 (You hit Hundred blades) that's 50 health, then if you 6 hydras INCLUDING the one you just hit 25x6 is 150. 150+ 50 = 200 health stolen. If you don't hit the target you just swung at twice you have retained 175 health. That's alot of health taken away. The higher Liver Vicariously is and Vigorous spirit is, the more health you will steal.

You can also do this with Gladiators Defense and / or Healing Breeze.
Defy Pain, like Endure Pain, can be a lifesaver, but if you forget about a superior rune, you can really ignore it. It should not be necessary.

I tried this too.... works a treat and easy to use. I had a little prob with the energy managment so I tried healing breeze and not vigerous spirit and mending (with vamp sword) and not deadly riposte cos for some reason I could take larger groups this way. +8 +3 -1 each hit using live vicariously and vamp mod with flurry was a good +10hp each hit and breeze between riposte was good regen combined with this and I could take em down pretty quick too
good job
ps: where are those mangh hydra at?
