uhm, you will encounter more hex casting groups(degen, slow down) but it isnt that hard, compared to droks its a little bit easier i think

I can solo run FoW using a R/W or R/Mo build. The spider cave isn't that hard for a Ranger since most of their running skills also evade attacks. The hardest part is probably the entrance to the Forge Courtyard area where you "usually" have to run past the group of Ice Hands and Ether Breakers that guard the path.

Unfortunately, it's not worth people's efforts unless they just want to have fun.

No i did not pick up a quest on the way. That ppart near the ranger was a resting point to recharge skills.

Truthfully, that drok run aint worth it. It is way to easy now. There is to many runners spamming that stuff for 3k, sometimes 2k. The run for me is a flat 22min run. It takes a good 20min to get a full group. So in about 40min, you make 15k... Not worth it. You can make a lot more doing a copperhammer run. I charge 2k for copperhammer, its a 5 min run..... Get the point. BTW there is never a bad spawn for drok runs. Those are just exuses. Drok run is plain out easy... The wurms are not even close to a problem. For wurms you should use charge and balance stance before u even encounter the wurms, you should lose them in 5 seconds.

BTW, you can Run the forest! Heres some pics of me running it with the same friend above, but i was taking all teh dmg.

Then me making it below. He finnaly got targeted.

Never bad spawns eh? I've had worms follow me all the way to the Dreadnaughts drift portal. Not only that but I have seen spawns the have had two Pinesole groups, a group of avicara, and 2 worms that were at the top of the first cave.

Yes the droks run is easy but far from 100% completion every time.

the key to make the wurms not fllow you is use charge and balance stance before the wurms even pop up, and when the pop up, just run in a line. I allways lose the wurms after the first pop up this way. Back to FoW disscussion.

Da Cebuano · Apr 09, 2006, 03:50 PM // 15:50

See I figured this run isn't very worth it at all, unless you are one of those bastards who have gotten all the luck in the game w/ a very special access key -_-

see:

1500 per key or 1k-1k250 if you buy from people

multiply that for how many chest you plan to open per run.

Say you have 10 keys = 15k

out of those keys, 3 golds 7 purples, chances are, the drops are ****y and thats 15k out to thin air.

Don't get me wrong, i bet theres alot of people who have made a mint from the good drops, but its entirely luck based, and basing on the gold drops i have gotten as of late, I simply don't find it worth the time(especially since going to fow means you can go do the spider run).

Lint · Apr 09, 2006, 04:27 PM // 16:27

i got a gold unidentified shadow blade, req 8 last night

. thats the total of my 3rd one so far.ii've must of gotten 40 keys or so. thats the total of 60k. And i've sold 2 shadow blades req 8 for 70k each (i've could've gotten more but i dont feel like spamming shit)). and besides the shadowblades i've goteen alot of gold. ALOT. 40/58 were around 10 or less req. 18/58 is basically req 13.

hinhtan · Apr 09, 2006, 07:04 PM // 19:04

Unid Shadow Blade req 8 doesnt cost much mow a day I try to sale my in LA and Forge for 40K like 2 hours w/o any offer.

Juicey Shake · Apr 10, 2006, 02:11 AM // 02:11

Nice, I tag along on my ranger sometimes and just solo the forest- eheh. Makes it easier for the silly wars to run at the end of their tour, too.

Lint · Apr 11, 2006, 12:28 AM // 00:28

Lint, great work man!
Dont listen to those who bash you for not making a thorough enough guide, or not clear enough... You are not obligated to be doing this at all. It is a blessing to all these people that you even bothered to do this for them! So thank you!

I cant do what you're describing at all... But I'm not gonna bitch about it, I'm sure all it takes is just more practice and lots of gold to waste.

(which I dont have and prolly never will)

Still, thanx, since if it's not for people like you, people like me wouldnt even have a slightest idea of all those builds and strategies that give you a chance to get something good.
