Default A Challenge that might be worth it

I have played with this on and off for about a week. I just can't solve it so I thought I would throw this out as a challenge.

Mission: Ice Caves of Sorrow
Task: Kill the group of 12 Mursat Elementalists
Build: ??? I have tried W/Me, W/Mo, W/Ele

Where they are.

You have to run the first part of the mission so sprint is an essential part of the build. Just run to the cut scene where you rescue Evina (name?)

After you rescue her it is time to kill some Mursat. There are only eles. there. 12 of them to be exact. If you can do this you have thought of something new as far as I know.

You must have been at work again :P

12 Mursaat Ele's! Now that is truely a challenge. Wouldnt a W/Me with Ele Res be able to do it hands down? Get yourself a +7 Def to ele attacks for your weapon and stock up some armour buffs and I would have thought you'd have been set.

I'll give it some thought!

just so you know, you dont even have to free Evenia. Simply use a powder keg and blow the door just above her cell...that way you can go hunt your mursaat without fear of her dying or the mission ending.

What are the feelings about a W/E with echo and backfire?

I almost made it with using spellbreaker as a W/MO but you have to get the 20/20 divine offhand outside of ice caves and the 20% faster recharge wand that I haven't found yet.

I got close but you will have to get very lucky and get the faster recharge every time you cast SB.

I tried with W/E using obsidian flesh but heal sig is just not enough healing.

I'm sure W/ME could do it but I would use mantra of lightning over ele resistence for the energy and extra damage reduction.

Very well thought, i dont see much of a reason to even do Ice Caves, well then again its XP and its one of those missions that are very difficult to find a group for, i had a time finding a group myself.

i'd say

W/Me

Ele Resistance
Dolyak Signet
Watch Yourself
Healing Signet
Skull Crack
Sever Artery (or illusion of weakness)
Desperation Blow
Sprint

Don't underestimate the power of a nice Skull Crack, it'll screw up those ele's.

Nero I like your build but would switch out desperation blow for epidemic, and sever for cyclone.

You have to kill a lot of heretics and a summit engineer to get to the mursaat eles, so i don't think you can trap or just run there.
