I met up with a random monk last night with my necro and he suggested we tried this so I duly switched chars to my monk and set off. A quick trip to Drok to kill the trolls and anything else that dared approach then off to the UW. I took SOJ as my elite for the coldfires but only them. This really took away from the monotony of the 55/SS runs i have been on of late and also takes away from ther risk of dying too early. The build works sublimely and was so much fun to play even tho I was the holy smiter. Major props to the folks that created it and thanks for posting for us all to abuse :-D

and the video is.....?

Evil Holy · Jun 27, 2006, 01:49 AM // 01:49

Guys, nice job developing this build!!

I would like to try it, my IGN is The Evil Holy, pm me when u want.

A Video would also be nice

Exile Of Heaven · Jun 27, 2006, 06:44 AM // 06:44

Well the video is curently being verified:S so u have 2 w8 a bit longer.

moko · Jun 27, 2006, 08:51 AM // 08:51

right, ive tried this out now as well, and finally got the clue :P

me and my partner are using the exact same build from the starting post, and can clear the chamber without any problems (including terrorwebs), as well as the coldfires & smites. hooray. we didnt come across to trying out the obsidian behemoths so far, since my partner accepted the quest with the mindblade spectres by mistake. funny enough, we actually killed most of them til they chased after me.

's really fast as well, and the best, it leaves room for error.

certainly a very good build:P gonna try out more today

id like to say that shing jea armor is also good because its 15 armor and it gives you +energy if you get teh rite 1

Exile Of Heaven · Jun 27, 2006, 01:19 PM // 13:19

Well, your video seems more dead than alive, the quality is crap, and the speed looks like you've accelerated the frames rate...

Anyway, we are doing the same duo monking run (without protective spirit), including killing the coldfires, but we can't pass the behemoth, so as you're bragging since a few posts that you can pass those behemoth, I am really curious to know how you're doing this...

Bokocasso · Jun 27, 2006, 02:25 PM // 14:25

Do you really need a video for this? Anything is explained... It took me 1-2mins to get on with the build.

moko · Jun 27, 2006, 02:26 PM // 14:26

i can view it, but it has such an awful quality, its hard to really see anything. <<

and i just tried again today, we got past the obsidian behemoths. 's pretty easy as long as the tanker keeps interrupting healing spring and the holy smiter stays out of range so natures renewal (spelling?) wont affect him/her. tanker has to turn blessed aura off to manage the energy.

my god, we even managed to kill the mindblade spectres. until i once again messed up and aggroed a group that appeared out of the nowhere.

btw, my partner uses shing jae armor with extra health, offhand with +30 health, major vigor and my vital blessing +189.

on a sidenote, i run:

Smiting: 16
Prot: 14
Divine: 9

besides, the video really isnt needed. its exactly like 55/SS, just that you need to cast elemental resistance now and then, and turn holy wrath off to get energy back up to kill the coldfires & terrorwebs.

GL to all that are going to try this out. =p

Have I said somewhere that I need a video, knowing that I've been running a variant of this duo monking build even before the first post of this thread...

But if anyone else need this video, it seems to me obvious that it must be of a better quality, or it is not worth it imo...

Exile Of Heaven · Jun 27, 2006, 03:21 PM // 15:21

Well about the video, its a bit of a messed up one indeed, i know why;S

its becuz the format is not standard 2 Google Video player ill make a new one or reload this old video with the changes ill put on then. hope 2 get 2 it soon

Srry for the bad video:/

Uploading a new one at filefront.com

with good quality

Tsai · Jun 27, 2006, 03:49 PM // 15:49

I run this build with a friend (mokone infact) and we can blitz the smites aatxes graspign darkness even the mind blades.

But those god damned coldfires take too long to take down. If anyone has the solution could they post the varient build pls

Exile Of Heaven · Jun 27, 2006, 03:52 PM // 15:52

Well the solution is 2 take Frenzy in stead of Ele Resistance, but then in the beginning u have 2 tank the squidies together with the aaxtes.

As an advice: Coldfires do not drop Ectos i think , and stay in a mealstom if u got frenzy on u 2 get u healed and reload ure energy

wich a 55 has problems with.

Also: uploading a new video atm

you might have misread it, but the problem with the coldfires is NOT to stay alive. its to kill them. however, tsai suggest to take backfire, which i now run, it works wunderful.

Dom: 9
Smite: 15
Prot: 13
Divine: 7

with a good timing of spellbreaker & backfire they go down pretty quick now. not to forget the soj in between.

on a sidenote, they might not drop ectos, but some people like taking them out anyways, just in case it might go something wrong and the holy smiter ends up in danger, in which you best end up fighting, and in order to reach certain group of smites you need to kill them anyways, or at least dodge, which can be a risk.

Anubis_3121 · Jun 27, 2006, 08:45 PM // 20:45

its me Anubis Slayer, and finally they activated my account even though i didnt get to open up the e-mail.

well if anyone wants to run this build with me i can run the holy smiter (still need some thins for the other guy)

well if your interested wsp me in-game. ign's (main ones are): Anubis Slayer and Quick Hide Me.

Mister Muhkuh · Jun 27, 2006, 08:47 PM // 20:47

any1 knows a trick to kill them?
ty

]SK[ · Jun 27, 2006, 08:59 PM // 20:59

Yup any Elementalist (Coldfires/Dryders) just managed to live from casting spells therefore constantly getting healed from Aura of Restoration :/
