Curse

I've tried several builds including W/Me ele resistance, and W/N grenths but the biggest problem im having is getting past blurred vision to actually deal damage to him.

With W/Me I can basically tank him indefinately but I cant deal damage and with W/N I can take him down to 10% hp but then I die.

55 wont work, deathhands and assassins strip enchants and then poison you. Does anyone have any idea how to take him down?

When he gets down to 10% does he attack you? Maybe try insidious parasite to kill off the last bit of health. Or with w/me use backfire+empathy or something to kill him. If you are prophecies you could try getting a henge of denravi helmet to help with the hex, but that is pretty far for running and stuff.

Or you could always just try to find a friend with an SS necro to help duo him.

I'll try that. I actually managed to get him with my 55 necro but I had to wait for the groups he fights to kill all the assassin/necros in his group first. I've done 6 runs and could only kill him that 1 time.

Guildwiki isnt working, so I cant check. But Illusionairy Weaponry will make hits regardless of miss chances...

It's also an enchant, so if other enchants are being stripped it's likely IW will be too.

Already thought of it, you can't use any enchantments at all with deathhands/assassins present.

I tried price of failure + insidious but I keep dying before I can cast them. I guess I'll have to 2-man this.

I did it on my 55hp necro, a normal 475 hp necro and my ranger, but it was very tough. Each time I had to help the other monsters kill of Amadis group. Then I had to rely on some healing from the shrine.

I'll try a few more times, but between the frustrating level of effort and the not-so-excellent green drop I'm not sure it's worth it.

This is my first post but i found a way to farm him that works really well.
Let him do his circle around and by the time he gets back he should only have a Ritualist with him. Then just pull him to the Luxon Priest and kill him. It is a very slow process but works. I use a Grenths Balance build with various killing moves. When pulling use GB and then the Luxon Priest will take care of u. I use the staff on my ele when i air spike and i think it works very well. If farming for money then it is definately not worth it.

He dies before then for me.

I used a method like Armegddon awhile back till I got frustrated beyond belief with it. It works, but you have to follow closely (not too closely) until his group is weakened suficiently. To get past blurred vision, I used inspired Hex. I also took Dolyaks, and Elemental Resistance. It worked, long as I could catch him at the right time. And you have to make sure that the baddies around him didn't injure him or your chance for a drop is not as good.
