My pleasure. Thanks for the videos i have learned some things as well. But one thing i would like to ask is. Why Have so many points in smiting if you are not using any smiting skills aside from bath spirit? From what ican tell i get the same amount of energy/adren with 5 points in smite as with 11. I run with ym divine at 16 and swap heapieces for a +4 mending. Just curious as to your reasons for that attribute setup. Thanks

There was another post i saw earlier about the effects of balth spirit... to which i have lost the link, but your right - from that i saw that i was wasting a few points to smiting... if only i could find that post i could edit the attribute allocations :P

Aha found it:

isnt it smarter to drop essence or balths and take Blessed Signet because when u get low on energy u can always pump it up a bit. Always when 1 aatxe is attacking me i get low on energy, maybe i'm using the skills to fast.

Can u give any help?

As i've mentioned blessed signet and essence bond can be interchanged, its completely up to you - for me blessed signet slows me down... as long as i make sure i have more than 25 energy at the end of each battle i'm fine... as for fighting one aatxe goes, if your attacking him you gain 1 strike of adrenaline per hit... making bonettis charge fairly quickly, simply tap bonetti's and watch your energy soar

Also when fighting just one aatxe you don't need to spam your skills. as long as you don't cast ps and HB too close together the chance of being interuppted is not that great. If you Healing Breeze does get interuppted you shoudl be fine recasting as soon as it is recharged. His savage slash will not have recharged yet.

as an SS'er, I found the video very interesting. The biggest thing I got out of it is that the 55 monk should aggro close by packs together, and that you can get the quest right off the bat, grouping the first room aaxtes and dyings together.

under 15 minute run is awesome to see, and something to strive for

thanks very much for all this

Fenixxor's monk is on steriods. I saw him shoot up by the docks in Lions Arch...

Good necro video...neat little trick with the enchanting sword or axe. That little small thing has my necro owning smites with extreme ease.

do you must have an infused 55hp armor for that run??
I was wondered, because you weared an infused 55hp armor :O
Maybe, cuz the enemys are "demons" you have to be infused.

Pls answer my noob question
