I have seen some amazing guides with using heroes to bond and cast spirits and stuff.

But I was wondering, do you think their could be a 2 man+ full team of heroes team build to do a lot of the uw/fow?

For uw, it could pretty much be one 55monk/600monk as the main tank, then maybe spoiling victor necro, a bunch of sf eles and a smiter if 600 monk etc.

Then maybe for fow, it could be a bonder, maybe a bunch of judges insight barragers with interrupts or something?

I think it would be cool to come up with some form of 2man+ heroes staple build for the people who want to go with a full team to fow/ uw but don't want to deal with pugs leaving.

well on the free fow/uw day me and my friend went to fow with our heros there was no special build i was a ele she was a dervish and we had a mm hero and 2 monks and it was quite easy to do the 1st 3 quests then we got bored and stopped. btw she got 3 shards and i got nothing.

yeah for fow, 8 decent builds of anything can clear it

uw, I'd imagine the same though I have only done spider capping and a billion smite farms

3 man/3 hero team (Tank, Bonder, SS and 3 hero's) did forgemaster in about an hour this past weekend. There is nothing so elite about FoW that you cant do it with hero's.

I was just wondering, if their was some good multi purpose hero/ 2 people builds to go through a lot, if not all of the uw/ fow. Seems like it'd be a good place to explore and hope for drops.

Underworld build that can be done with a hero

MercenaryKnight · Mar 31, 2007, 03:00 AM // 03:00

The only thing I was looking at mainly was the ability to use a big team of heroes to make it all quicker and able to do just about anything and everything. I just was hoping maybe their would be some form of 2people+full team of hero party builds that were used in particular to just do some exploring and get some drops along the way as well as quest experience.

Yes, in fact you should be able to do a forgerun better with 6 heroes than a PuG.

MercenaryKnight · Mar 31, 2007, 09:20 PM // 21:20

So, does anyone have some general build ideas for say fow? I think I remember someone saying a bunch of barrage rangers with splinter weapons was a good build.

I just mainly want to have some fun and be able to explore fow/ get quest chests and what not.

Also, do heroes take the chest drop if they are around? So I would have to move them away from it before we open it?

badasschris · Apr 01, 2007, 07:12 PM // 19:12

Ok well you keep asking the same question and what were saying is that Fow with a full team should not be that hard therefore take whatever heros you like and make sure you and your partner attack the same targets and you should be fine. what i took when i went was me (SF ele) friend (dervish general tank) + 2 monk heros + mm hero + 2 fire ele heros + 1 other hero , this worked fine for me so you can go as that or what ever comes close toherwise just take whatever and experiment. also yes send off you heros when u open the chest or they might get the drop.

Do you want to clear FoW just for the sake of clearing it or are you actually doing it for the purpose of farming? With 6 heroes in a group they will take away a LOT of loots, kind defeat the point of farming. I usually just run a 2 monk FoW group that aims to clear all the skeletons, it's pretty fast and this way we get all the droppings, by the time the last impaler goes down our inventories are always full of items, we resign and then start again, much more efficient that way.

farming UW w/heros sounds like a waste of money, at least in a 50/50 ecto farm you get half. I use heros down there to test builds and maybe go after a black widow.

MercenaryKnight · Apr 04, 2007, 10:47 PM // 22:47

I know it's not really worth it for "farming it" but I figured, just getting to sort of clear through it with some heroes/ do quests, get some gold maybe a decent drop out of the quest chests by moving the heroes out of the way. (mainly for fow since aatxes I would assume to be kinda hard with heroes)

MercenaryKnight · Apr 08, 2007, 09:43 PM // 21:43

I tried getting help in the heroes section but didn't get any and since it's farming I guess I should come here.

How should I set up my hero monks/ r/rts rangers?

Barrage, savage, distracting, charm, comfort, res, splinter weapon
is the basic staple I guess for the rangers.

I am drawing a blank at what kind of monks I should use.

Also, would 6 rangers and 2 monks do good? Or should I maybe use a utility paragon or something like an orders necro or something.

max_rulez · Apr 09, 2007, 07:00 AM // 07:00

With the following build i have cleared every quest in UW and every zone.
Stance Tank (W/Mo or R/W needs to be human because its difficult)
"Incomming" Paragon
5 Energy WoH Monk (Needs to be Human and a compitant healer.)
Life Sheath Prot Monk
Spiteful Spirit Necro
3 Searing Flames Elementalists

It isnt Easy but it is very much Doable. Next time i do a run ill bring up pics of each cleared zone in the party
