If Inferno is a problem, and you are certain of your capabilities of nuking all the hydra's at once, dont use shadow of Haste. And activate Dark Escape while tanking, causing you to take two times more hits.

first off, thank you very much for the build. works really nice.

if people trying it could post places where they were successful/unsuccessful, that would be really cool.

thanks again!

yeah for Stygian veil just use SoH near where all the stygian horrors group if u accept the quest. Kill the scourage of darkness 1st a.k.a. the monk. You should both go in at the same time to kill him. Then for the rest of the group its better to switch off. Now for gloom u'll need feigned nuterality because of the bleeding from the earth tormentors. Just cast it after u teleport out and SF is about to end. Just replace instead of using lava font or glyphe. Gloom is a little of a pain cause the tormentors use call of darkness i they don't die from the spike. Which just makes a worthless clone that doesn't drop anything.

Currently farming ToPK with this, switching out glyph for font. You need a +20e staff with 20% ench on it to have enough energy for your whole combo. First run I got an ecto, so I'm happy.

Hi.

First of all this is one of the few farming builds that I loved so good job there.

in your first post the build uses a glyph which isn't that useful and in the vid you use lava font insted of the glyph, so if you can please update the post to reflect this (you have a good build here so please maintain it and why not post it on the wiki?).

Anyone had any success with this build in the UW?
my attepmts didn't go well but I think it can be done .. so what do you think?

one other question which is not entirely related to this thread. If a foe dies from burnning (health degen in general) do they drop things if you were away from them? you know sometimes you use dark escape and the foe starts burnning to death so in that case do you get loot from him or not?

Thats all for now and thanks for the build.

No you do not get it, because you are to far away...

Sorry have been busy lately but i will change the pics, shortly. As for your quest about the UW. You cannot solo the ataxes but you can kill them dual running. Or if you wish to solo there you can use the same idea as the E/me or W/rit and skip the ataxes all together. For the burnning to death question: No you cannot get the drop if you're to far away, but if your positive u broke aggro you can run pretty close up to them and you'll get the drop usually.

The e/me version or w/rit would be much quicker than this so if u dont plan on killing the aatxe u may as well use one of those

E/me yes, W/rit...not unless u can kill mass aggro in less than a 16 seconds including the grasping, but it is definetly not as safe and ez. I'm just trying to say that it is doable.

i think you need 2-man for forest and cave , can't kill the armored cave spiders alone , and need to be very lucky to kill a abyssal

Superb. Do you think the same build would work with EQ, Aftershock and Sandstorm and be more effective? I'm not criticizing, just broadening horizons

Yeah u'll need to 2-man the spiders, and the abyssals mostly just die off from burning degen. Sandstorm is an elite isn't it?

yeah would not recommend even bothering with the ataxes. Might try the other areas later though.
