First of all, why are you using Shadow Form? Unless you're soloing (which you're not), the skill is pretty bad for PvE.

Second of all, fire doesn't do extra damage against the Snowmen, just so you know.

When I farmed it in HM I did, 1 paragon (They're on Fire = <3), 3 fire ele's. 1 BiP, 1 prot monk, 1 heal and 1 jagged (to take aggro) could probably just run a lot of fire ele's and damage through.

by sf I tried to say searing flames

and are you sure fire doesnt do extra damage agains them. Fire is absulutely same amount of dmg in skill description. Which can be considered they are weak agains.

Maybe a bow and barrage is an option with all the new skills you probably can crit every hit. So many targets that normal sin set may not be too effective. Party should have a Searing flamers / savanna heat nuker. They do drop very fast.

I have no idea what you said in your reply to me, but your first post clearly says Shadow Form.

i go as a barrager. i know it sounds weird but i cant stand getting spiked by their snowballs and spamming barrage is a blast.

This is the build i use and it works pretty well

i usually take along 2 sf eles and a monk hero then some random henchies. you can blast through the dungeon pretty easily in HM but i usually die 1-2 times because im reckless.

I just used Shadow form solo build in HM. You can easily get 10k off of it. Along with your dwarven points.
I know this build is here somewhere so I'm just gonna write it down:
Deaths charge
Glyph of Elemental power( whatever raises your attributes by 2 )
Intensity *sunspear title track*
Aftershock
Shadow form
Sliver armor
Shadow of haste
Dash/Dark escape
Easy enough to use and it works there extremely well even in HM.
I made around 12k off of it. Takes a while to do successfully and traps still hit you. Any 20% longer enchanting mod will work the best. Totem axe*5k for 20% and +30 health. Hajok's prism from Nightfall works good to.
