thanks for posting this build, i'll use it to make my own 55monk build

Aatxes get stuck behind the ghosts so they can't melee you (poor warrior mobs).

Tsunami Rain · Feb 01, 2006, 02:34 AM // 02:34

I have a question. Can someone give me the stats on the Fiery Flame Splitter of Enchanting and a price that i can get it at. or can i use other weapons and if so, which weapons. Also (a bit off topic) does anyone have a normal SoJ Solo UW build that I can test and compare this build with? (been farming griffons forever).

Fiery Flame Splitter (unmodded)
Fire dmg 6-16
Improves skill recharge 10% (built on)

Fiery Flame Splitter of Enchanting
Fire dmg 6-16
Improves skill recharge 10%
Improves skill recharge 20%

See the difference?

You can get it at a collector at Portsman Flats for 3 Schorched Lodestones

Dont even try SoJ it takes ages.

Holy Arch · Feb 01, 2006, 12:52 PM // 12:52

why would enchanting improve skill recharge, doesnt it just lengthen enchantments?

Rinobmxteen · Feb 01, 2006, 01:53 PM // 13:53

that is i guess an error in his post because u cant add a skill recharge mod and the fiery flame splitter only has 10% skill recharge

Yes, it was an error

Undead Silverhawk · Feb 01, 2006, 03:21 PM // 15:21

Works.
Downside:
Slow, Dangerous. No-one else to talk or cooperate with

Advantage:
1-man Run. So more items.

Tsunami Rain · Feb 02, 2006, 01:46 AM // 01:46

thx for the info on where to get the item

--edit--
ok so i just checked ALL of Pockmark Flats and there is no collector (not one). I'm guessing the item has been nerfed. Any other alternatives?

sno · Feb 02, 2006, 04:04 AM // 04:04

It's not nerfed, I think we may have to have favor for the npc to show up though. That was the case for a collector I remember, not sure if that's the one.

Tsunami Rain · Feb 02, 2006, 05:21 AM // 05:21

It probably is because when i went out looking for the npc i couldnt find it. I'll try again right now. Thanks sno!

--edit--
ok i found 1 collector (outside of serenity temple) and it wasnt selling the axe (its an axe right?). i followed every path but still couldnt find any other

Avarre · Feb 02, 2006, 12:20 PM // 12:20

Follow the south path from serenity, he's slightly off the path behind a small wall. You can't see him from the main path, even with alt pressed. Check the FFS thread in Tyrian Explorers, there's a good map there.

SziP · Feb 02, 2006, 01:00 PM // 13:00

Now......how are u going to pass the smities? smite hex ftw.

Sir Krohan · Feb 02, 2006, 05:38 PM // 17:38

Ok I finally got to smites and actually killed some of them.

New build:
Mending--> for godly tanks as always...
Balthazars Spirit
Prot Spirit
Healing Breeze
Guardian
Blessed Signet
Spiteful Spirit {E}
Suffering

When you get to smites, use Suffering. They should all use Smite hex (spike dmg ftw) so make sure to have breeze on you. Now cast SS and wait till you see the -5 Smite Hex dmg...then use sufferin again and so on.
It takes some time to get used to it but its worth it..

I was too excited tot ake pics sorry.

I still don't see how this is worth not taking a necro with you >.<

Rhuobhe · Feb 02, 2006, 07:10 PM // 19:10

Just buy a second account (and if needed, a second computer) then make a SS/SV necro. Then all the ecto's are yours

Maybe because you get all the drops for yourself?

Whats the average time on a 2 man run 20-40 mins right?

Average solo smite run for myself with n/mo = 30 mins minimum- 40 mins max.

So that means a 2 person team has to do 2 runs to equal the amount someone gets in 1 run if they are running it effeciently ( experience, and loot.) Granted a mo/n is going to take longer because you max out at lvl 12 curses.

Personally I would use Shadow of fear because it has a 10 second recharge which is the same recharge time as SS . Smites spam fast casting skills and trigger the SS so the 50% slower attack speed isnt even a problem. I consistently drop them in 2 ss's with shadow of fear as a cover. Smite rarely go into melee since your not running SV. They just cast away triggering zealots along with SS.

Suffering=20 second recharge. You can find yourself getting into trouble with the smite hexes very easily, getting your SS removed,Thus drawing out the fight and increasing your run time. The -2 degen doesnt really speed the kill along, because it is getting smite hexed as soon as it lands. But if it works for you then congrats.

Here's a link to my solo n/mo uw and fow guide and videos. You probably already seen the videos

, for those that haven't enjoy.

SziP · Feb 03, 2006, 01:31 AM // 01:31

People forget that there is a way to Solo with a Me/Mo. Takes time but im surprized to see that there are more ecto drops in the first part of a solo, than with a 2-man. I try to be as original as possible, im avoiding 2-man groups when i can solo differently than with a mo/w, mo/n, n/mo...and so on.

It still takes that long with 2 people? Think I'll time my warrior one of these days...
