Wondering this Avarre, If Cerb has Spell Shield instead of SB from reading the notes on the skill with Max Divine +20% Enchantment mod and Blessed Aura. Spell Shield can be up the whole battle then the Horsemen cant cast skills on you. Free up a slot and Elite. You Cast Spells while in Spellbreaker wouldnt matter. It just idea that might help.

There is one problem and that is when spell shield is up you can't cast spell for certain duration in either the same attribute or spells at all.This will make you venerable to spells.I thought about using this in RA but it disables them similar to blackout.

[skill]Spell Shield[/skill]

When it ends so that wouldn't be good and that is all spells.

according to Wiki, when i checked they said if you add Blessed Aura+20% Enchantment Mod it would make Spell Shield go consistent, figure it might help the UW.

We did try exactly that, and spell shield kicks ass against Mindblades since they can't use interrupts against you.

However, it's somewhat redundant.

Oh no, we did it again!

Sorry people this is taking some time, I am receiving many PM's in game, but I bring good news: The guide should be up this week! I've got some school project to do as well but I'm working on the guide as much as I can. Also, other good news: I finally managed to record a video of the Four Horsemen on the monk side! (We have four videos of Four Horsemen total: three from the necro side and one on monk side, but it deals with the most troublesome situation so it's definately good to learn from) Also, we have Labyrinth, Unwanted Guests, Escort of Souls, Wrathful Spirits, Ice King, Chaos Planes, Twin Serpent Mountains. All good quality with awesome music (expect electronica, post-rock and 80s :P)!

I just want to say thanks for your time, I'm working really hard on this to cover every single possible question/problem one could have, deal with different type of runs (farming vs uw clearing), talk about safety as well as speedy patterns, while providing different builds, lots of videos and lots of screenshots! You won't be disappointed! So once again thanks for your patience and interest, I will do everything I can to make the guide go up this week (or weekend at most)

It the abilty that it can be done with 2 people, Drops and Xp is just extra reward.

Plz Mr Cerb tell us how u did it

(or is it mr. Gosu)

ragnagard · Feb 13, 2008, 02:47 PM // 14:47

Mmm looking forward to see your detailed guide ^^.

Looks promising... I am thinking in the monk I will ask to do it with me... :P.

And btw... items received from chest are important, .... cause they will give you cash for another tries, :P.

One stupid question: Do you think that farm this quest and nearest ones (not the entire UW) worth the 1k fee with the dropped items?
I am a bit dissapointed with the dual 600/smiter crawlers' drop so i asked this LF a new playground :P.

Oh yes definately, and TBH we skip most of smites and go straight for Ice King because they never drop anything anyways.

@Avatar Exico: That is right, whole UW two men is more for the challenge than drops actually. But I will be talking about farming for efficiency in the UW as well.

Well of course you get a lot of ectos and nice drops plus the end chest but if you consider the time it takes, the risks, it is not what I recommend for farming purposes only.

Well, then I think I will try a few times when ya post the guide just for fun & maybe a little more drop (I am lack of ecots ATM, rofl).

And to be clarify (for) myself.... it's done in NM or HM? (just the quest) I think that's NM cause of the screens but I only read some of the 5 pages :P

MercenaryKnight · Feb 13, 2008, 09:02 PM // 21:02

Just curious, is there a possibility that a 3-4 man could be added to speed up the run considerably? Since it is mainly for completion/ end chest and drops along the way. Seems like if you had a smiter with the ss or whatever your using, that could add damage. Throw in a famine ranger for even more damage etc.

Avatar Exico · Feb 13, 2008, 09:57 PM // 21:57

Esp the Ectos drop more often in Etneral Wasteland than Smites, this should be the way extra reward for doing the 2 Horsemen Quest. Besides I like a Challenge always have. Lost alot with Ursan PUG grps from someone messing up which makes it more addicted to do it.

You are as bad as someone else I know who use his FoW set for 55ing in.I can't wait till I get mine when ever I can master the UW and FoW.I don't get the chance to get to go down there that often.

Yes, of course, this would be possible, but for optimal speed the whole team build would need to be rethought. I'll get back to you on that once I'm done with the guide!
