Default Dreadnoughts drift solo - HM

Attributes and skills:


You can switch out blessed signet for shielding hands if you cannot stay alive.

You will need to have a -20 offhand so you can die to get 13 health.

To get to Dreadnoughts, zone out into snake dance from Camp Rankor, if there is a heretic rezone until there are only griffons. You will need to die to get 13 health, then make sure to keep your enchants on you at all times and just run (walk) to Dreadnoughts.

There are 2 groups of Tundra Giants you want to kill in Dreadnoughts Drift.

First group:


After you kill the first group, you will need to die to get down to 13 health again, then proceed to the next group. (Really 3 groups, but turns into one when you hit a certain spot)

Stand here to get all of the tundra giants to come to you:


I do not have any screens of the drops because I got D/Ced right after the first run.

So basically its a 55 build killing Tundra Giants? Meh, i was hoping for more... I was about to commend you if you solo the Stone Summit

Do they really drop anything worth the trouble for? I mean you have to walk all that way in Hard Mode... Sure you can just keep rezoning after every farm till your full up, but it must take at least 10-20 minutes to walk there AND keep yourself alive the whole way.

I'm not understanding whats up with your bar?

You don't really need to do 13hp and depend solely on the regen...

You don't really need Essense Bond AND Balth's Spirt...and then you overkill it even more with Blessed Sig?

Getting there might be a pain in the arse, but there's plenty of farmable stuff on the way if you want something to do while "running" (Azures, griffons, trolls, Tundras should all work with this build). Once you get to Dreads the Tundras are just the icing on the cake.

Try this standard cookie cutter:

[skill]Protective Spirit[/skill][skill]Shielding Hands[/skill][skill]Shield of Absorption[/skill][skill]Shield of Judgment[/skill][skill]Mystic Regeneration[/skill][skill]Fleeting Stability[/skill][skill]Balthazar's Spirit[/skill][skill]Blessed Aura[/skill]

I run this build in many places with both small and large aggros and never have energy problems as long as you are smart with your casting.

Just be smart and don't cast 1sec cast time spells when fighting trolls, don't put up Fleeting when you don't need it, etc...

I got mostly runes, a few dyes, 3 lockpicks, and 4 warrior tomes.

4 warrior tomes are barely worth mentioning. So far i've gained 6 warrior tomes from vanquishing things as normal. From what i've seen, they're so damn common its stupid.

By the sounds of things its mainly just a rune farm. If thats the case, there are 100s of better areas to farm runes than trecking to Dreadnoughts Drift.

No offence to the OP, but what do you mean people like him? He posted a build that people dislike. The build is good, the place isn't worth it. Nobody in this thread is flaming.
