the trick on preventing the golem or horror to follow, is turn your screen around before your attack, and as soon as you see your char pull on the bow string, activate your stance and press up. This you will have 1 1/2 sec lead when you barrage reach you target.

Works 100% for me.

Ya I did that but I just realized I was using a longbow! I'll pull out the old Flatbow and give it a shot.

Thanks for your help!

Thats why god invented flagging. 3x the traps, 1 set of drops.

Trapping has one major disadvantage. It's boring.
I seriously don't understand why so many people insist on being slowed down by pre trapping, even in full fledged parties in normal or elite missions. The hit and run tactic is the perfect method for those that don't stand the eternal boredom of trapping and in this function is pretty much superior to those.

I've been running around looking for mobs to slay with this but I haven't found much. The Turai's Procession thing you can solo up until the end. I always have 4 guys left and can't kill them.

wow that looks really good i'll try with my ritualist, can anyone tell me the attributes a ritualist should have.

uxxmall · Apr 07, 2007, 09:11 AM // 09:11

16 channeling , 9 or more markmanship and rest in beast mastery
With my rangers I only use 3 skills (splinter + barage+natural strider)
don't really need eoe.

Blonde Warrior · Apr 07, 2007, 10:03 AM // 10:03

Do NOT put anything into marksmanship, it is a waste, put 16 channeling, 9 wilderness survival, and 9 beast mastery.

Make sure you are using a flatbow, it has the longest range and longest flight time which gives you a head start to run. Only use the 33% speed buff when you run, if you don't they will chase forever.

You can do the arena quest on the luxon side. (Can't remember exact name or area) It gives 400 luxon faction, and some gold, and each run only takes about 2-3 minutes.

I'd stick to Valerie... Maybe 4-6 splinter barragers in urgoz... MASSIVE DAMAGE!

Lib hee dow · Apr 11, 2007, 08:07 AM // 08:07

It does. Our one Monk got very bored. We also took along a MM for fun.

Arrrggghhhh!!! This is getting really frustrating coz they all keep chasing me to some degree or another. Golems are the worst but all the other chase as well. I had 4 golds just on only my 2nd attempt and bam Golems chased me when I was no where near them

I understand the principles of it but I'm finding if I activate the speed boost to soon, Barrage only seems to let one or two arrows off, and obviously if I leave it to late, I get chased.

I even tried moving up the hill slightly to give myself an even further flight time (using an ironwing flatbow) and it still doesn't help.

Could someone spare me 10 mins to just let me watch them do this so I can see how the barrage/boost/turn move is timed?

My IGN is Buder Mink.
