Can we conferm the location in Talus Chute? I found one necro boss there, but he didnt have the skill.

not in Talus Chute.. Dreadnaught's Drift, and only Dreadnaught's Drift.

I agree it was not easy to cap... I went with a mix of guildies and henchies from rankor, entered Dreadnaught at +10%, and after a while we were all at -60%. However, sending people to die, using their corpses to make lvl 18 fiends, rebirthing them back to safety, and sending them to die again soon gave us an overwhelming army

. I also, only once, saw that wurm right outside Deldrimor War Camp. It appeared on the little downhill slope that you take to head into SF. We were all surprised, and of course, no one had a cap signet

With the introduction of Deldrimor War Camp, it's a bit easier to get to Dreadnoughts now.

I went with hench, if you know where to find Maw it's not hard to get FoC.
It only takes quite some time before you're there.

With the introduction of stuff, and some luck, you don't even have to go to Dreadnought... Maw the Mountain Heart is a random, annoying and terrifying boss spawn in Grenth's Footprint... as I found out running to attack Flint... :P
btw, Maw the Mountain Heart is just plain cool, and Feast of Corruption has got to be the coolest-named skill in the game ;D

took me 15 minutes to get

hire a runner to dreadnought

easy from there

CrimsonReLLiK · Jan 09, 2006, 03:32 PM // 15:32

Grab 6 other henchies, and get a runner to take u to dreadnought drift.
Maw the Mountain Heart is easy to beat. He is near the statue of Dwayna.

Took me about 45min from leaving War camp to the kill of Maw, alone with henchies. Just fill up the group with henchies from the Deldrimor War camp and fight your way to Dreadnoughts, it's a fun challenge and test of skills.
Since I was the puller and main dmg dealer I did die several times before getting to Maw, but the hardest part is getting to him.

The henchies from the War camp are strong enough to do lots of dmg and remain alive, it only gets tricky when coming accross a Troll or Griffon patrol with 8+mobs, specially while already in battle. Bring along SpitefulSpirit and echo and it's a lot of fun to see them drop. Can also bring along some taps and ShadowofFear, for the big groups of giants that interupt all time. With failed echo and SS, better to slow them down before they take everyone down.
Once you get to Dreadnought from SnakeDance, let the first group of giants pass by and go with the griffons on the left, leaving the path open for you. You might be able to sneak past the very large group of Dolyaks, sentinels and other dwarves, if not just agro the group, back up quickly so that only some of them will follow, pick those out then go back for the rest.
By the time I got to Maw I was at 40% DP, but whenever I died the group of henchies was strong enough to finish the battle and bring me back.

If you come in Dreadnought from the North, there are a couple of large patrols to go through, very challenging but fun. I killed them all for pleasure but before long everyone was at 60% DP, several healers and minion masters in those groups.

heres where the worm is

obastable · Jan 31, 2006, 12:40 PM // 12:40

Just had this sucker pop up out in Grenths Footprint, just south of the portal to Spearhead Peak. Will go and see if he comes again and take a screenshot of the location.

Rid Dic K · Feb 16, 2006, 03:12 AM // 03:12

He is also at Snakes Dance, I even got a SS... Was running droks... LoL

Now to talk about how good a skill it is...

Feast is better in PvE.

Since the enemies still bunch up on the tank - You can cast Suffering(Enfeebling Blood/etc) then This, and boom...everyone of them is hit for over 100 dmg.

Feast in PvP (where you are lucky if you hit 2 guys with it) is alittle different.

Most dont use it in bigger PvP, but in the random arena its still ok - since noone brings hex removal, and the Dmg over time isnt as good in those situations.

Sneaky · May 19, 2006, 04:07 AM // 04:07

crap...i spent like an hour gettin there from rankor only to be obliterated by the big mob in the crossroadish area of dreds....im talking absolutely destroyed me and my henchies....but then they did have 3 healers :/

TheProject · Jul 13, 2006, 09:45 AM // 09:45

This is my alltime favorite necro spike skill.

akaRob · Jul 14, 2006, 08:02 PM // 20:02

Maw is easily enough beaten. Get a mate on his warrior to run up to Dreadnoughts Drift to kill Maw and clear the way for you on your necro to just run up and use your siggy, piece of cake!

Former Ruling · Jul 14, 2006, 10:11 PM // 22:11

Update: In the last season's Metagame this was a popular spike in HA, simply because of the state of the game at the time.

It got the nerf recharge wise yesterday.

Cebe · Oct 25, 2006, 09:08 AM // 09:08

Wow...just wow. Could this possibly be the most awesome skill in the game (for necros anyway)?

I found this recently and got it on my Necro after a long walk up Snake Dance. I tried it out in Fort Aspenwood (Luxon) with this build:

Feast of Corruption {E}
Suffering
Faintheartedness
Insidious Parasite
Parasitic Bond
Malaise
Deathly Swarm
Verata's Aura

I found that Suffering + Feast of Corruption + Deathly Swarm finished the eles and necros guarding the first two gates...

I think I have a new favourite...sorry Spiteful Spirit!

No need for Vertas Aura and Death Swarm, drop them for Arcane Echo and Rez Sig . .

I take Veratas Aura for my own amusement...I like to annoy enemy MMs. I don't take any form of resurrect into Aspenwood...it's a one-hit-wonder skill and if the other team has a mesmer like mine I would get interrupted before you can shout "That Wammo is using Mending!"
