It is so easy to beat it now with A/E

glyph of swiftness
deadly paradox
shadow form
critical eye
critical agility

you can't be touched, just add in some attack skills and you're set.

the change to Steelfang Slash might have killed it, i used kd as a interrupt on his spirits and it went down on the 1st try. used this on most solo quests btw.

the necro build works for warriors too, you just need as much energy you can get, my guildie managed w/ a cupcake and 2x honeycomb but i dont think you need all that, a offhand and a +5 weap should be just fine

I did it today on my monk

After several tweaks I beat him with this:

[build= OwUDE8Y+SfA2g2kAVmE9A8DoEA]

I just hex and kite with [you move like a dwarf] which also serves to disrupt him.
[Cry of pain] deals damage and interrupts him
the remaining skills are interrupts and the last 2 are extra damage dealing and to kill any annoying spirit that he have managed to pop at an inconvenient spot.

Anyone with 4 pips of regen, or with smart use of Auspicious Incantation should be able to use this:

[build prof= Illusion=12 Inspiration=12][Crippling Anguish][Conjure Phantasm][Auspicious Incantation][Conjure Nightmare][Mantra of Persistence][Ether Feast][Cry of Pain][Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support][/build]

Damage is mainly degen, but it only took two minutes.

Once your party reaches 60% DP in Hard Mode you don't get ressed at shrines.

tatsuya uchiha · Jun 10, 2008, 05:49 AM // 05:49

yes i know that only a few of my party was at 60% ogden was at 43% when that happened i made sure of it

DarkGanni · Jun 10, 2008, 06:53 AM // 06:53

You reached 60dp and when whole party gets 60dp in Hard Mode that means game over.
You have to restart all over again. When doing HM I suggest taking powerstones or other DP removing consumables,
also rework your skills bars for better chance to survive.

Yeah....doesn't matter what DP your party of heroes and henchmen are at...once YOU reach 60%DP that's it.

Thats actually wrong, its when the whole party is @60dp you lose, not when YOU specifically are at 60dp, because I know i have been @60, and rezed because one of my heroes, usually the one with [Death Pact Signet] is on less then 60.

malko050987 · Jun 10, 2008, 08:59 AM // 08:59

If there was lots of death during the battle, it's likely that Odgen died two times, jumping from 43% to 60%. Sometimes you can miss a death&rez by the H/H team if you're fighting.

Mister O · Jun 10, 2008, 01:50 PM // 13:50

[animate bone horror][animate bone minions][animate shambling horror][blood of the master][great dwarf weapon][barbs][necrosis]

and have a good laugh at the poor griffon.

Rothan Celt · Jun 10, 2008, 03:39 PM // 15:39

1 get a long bow
2.Poison tip signet
3.Read of the wind
4. Interrupt
5. Move like a dwarf

7.Signet of infection (not needed but faster)
Just stay at a distance spam Move like a dwarf for a knock dwn + cripple
Interrupt whenever you can and w8 for the conditions to kill him

with this it's very easy to do

TheGazettE · Jun 15, 2008, 04:17 PM // 16:17

My suggestion is to get a longbow. Keep on shooting the griffin on higher ground and move back. He will continue to cast spirits at that same place, but the spirits can't attack you. Once he laid down all his spirits, shoot him again and DPS him. I did this with a friends warrior with YMLAD and the dwarven headbutt spamming build and killed him without much problems. I also added Vigorous Spirit for the extra heal

Voodoo Rage · Aug 13, 2008, 06:57 AM // 06:57

This worked for my ele:

[build=OgRDQbtMSrlVBTBUB6i5iAAAAA]

Spammed my minions (mindbender worked nicely to reduce casting time). Literally stood right in front of the griffin to body block him. He just stood there doing nothing while my minions took him down. I never had to heal them and the sniper support took his head off unnecessarily at the end.

My original build had spoil victor which I never actually used (there's a wasted 10k elite tome right there...). I never need my blood of the master either since the griffon seemed more interested in un-body blocking itself more than attacking anything (I was standing right in his face and he never took a swipe at me). Death Nova wouldn't have mattered either. It's more of a glitch than anything.

Ultima pyromancer · Aug 14, 2008, 12:26 AM // 00:26

not sure if this has been posted, but it just worked a treat for me

[BUILD=OgRDUsqMOThqwR1KQMKi+C8A]

Spam the minions as soon as you get in, making animate bone minions your priority, quickly run to the griffon and the minions will body block him. spam tenais/searing heat and MoR with a flame staff. Also spam Blood of the master to lower your health then hit him with Grenths when your health is around 100. You can push it lower than that, but its not advisable. When his bar is 1/5 downish, just staff him and the minions/degen should kill. Easily doable in 1 min

enjoy
