I just did 2 runs and rezoned twice on the last run because it was a good spawn. I didn't have any luck in getting a IDS. The only problems(still not too hard) is when there are two Trolls. You just have to watch the skills that they use and watch for the intrupt.

The Ice golems are not that hard. The only Signet that gets slowed down is Dolyak sig. I don't even drop to a low enough health to use healing sig.

If any one want to see my armor/weapons/skills let me know I will get screen shots.
Also I always keep Watch Yourself!, Dolyak Signet, Elemental Resistance going at all times.

And Just for the record I don't need to use the Denravi Hex Helmet but if it can work for you go and get it.

Dolyak signet doesn't even have a cast time so it can't be slowed down.

Yeah, nice video guide. I got one on my first and only run.

My one complain is that now I cannot get Tarzan Boy out of my head.

eljeffe · Mar 08, 2006, 03:30 AM // 03:30

I dont know what post you are refering to, but I made this map from one of my recent runs.

disposable-hero · Mar 13, 2006, 08:34 PM // 20:34

Cheers dude great vid. Tried once but the giants decided to mob up in the valley bit before you get to the cave. Nice and easy when you get going.

Arkantos · Mar 15, 2006, 11:34 AM // 11:34

Like the title says, this is a great guide and very helpful (music wasnt bad either), i used the exact same skills and followed what you did and can kill all the imps/avicara/trolls and ice giants in the cave. Only problem is, after 23 runs that i have cleared out cave, i have gotten NO Icy Dragon Swords

Youd think after all that time id get one... ohh well im off to try once more, thanks agian for the guide!

Sure you can, but they don't drop the sword.

Kitari · Apr 02, 2006, 02:41 PM // 14:41

Ok well im still pretty new to the game *cough-49days* But yea ive been trying to solo run this run like 10 million time, I can get past everying and not even have a dought that i will get to the imps. Theres only one problem, Once i get there and I used my W/Me spell Elemental defese it works for like 2 seconds, and dissapears, and this morning i think they took out the trolls and seige. I always die here, what should i use to not die from the imps? that is if any of you know.

TurinPT · Apr 02, 2006, 03:12 PM // 15:12

ele resistance disapears? are you using any other stance on top of it like sprint? stances dont stack, if you use sprint, resistance ends.

all you need to survive is right here in this thread: dolyak, watch yourself, ele resistance, platemail set with knights boots, crimson carapace shield, major absorbtion rune and take a weapon with +7 armor vs elemental to help out.

LadySandkicker · Apr 02, 2006, 11:20 PM // 23:20

The ice imps outside the cave do drop IDS, I got one from the second imp I killed outside the cave on my 6th run using w/me build

Slabby · Apr 07, 2006, 04:50 PM // 16:50

Hi,
First of all I would like to thank Kapper for this great Thread, but I have some problems with the Ice Imps.

The build I use:
Sprint - Flurry - Galrath - Final Trusth - Hundred Blades - Healing Signet - Dalyak Signet - Watch Yourself

Attributes:
Strength 8 + 3 : 11
Swordsmanship 11 + 1 : 12
Tactics 12 + 1 : 13

Armor:
Full 15k Gladiator set with Ascalon Helm
+ superior vigor
+ superior absorption
-> The collector shield +45 HP stance / -2 stance
-> The collector sword + 15% stance

When I'm running, 2 things can stop me: Heretics and The F*cking Mesmer Boss
Any hints on avoiding these ?

When I'm at the imps, i have problems maintaining my health and attacking at the same time so I just die...

If anyone can help me, has hints etc. feel free to help me

Grtz Slabby

Edit: I thought about buying a Pommel of Defense +5, but would that really make such a difference ?

linh · Apr 07, 2006, 06:36 PM // 18:36

Heretic in Tasca's Demise ? It is no problem if you die there. When I ran, I often died by them

, but then I ressed at the res point near the portal to Mineral Spring, so I can easily run to portal. 15% DP is nothing, don't worry.
I think you really need Elemental Resistance. "Watch Yourself!" and Dolyak is not enough, especially when you use Healing Signet ( -40 armor). Of course it is better if you have +5 armor on your sword, it helps to reduce damage. Elemental Resistance is stance, so you can't use Flurry, just swap it for another skill. And remember to use Healing Signet when you have at least 2 defense skills on you ( Elemental Resistance and Watch Yourself/ Dolyak Signet).

Slabby · Apr 07, 2006, 06:46 PM // 18:46

Elemental Resistance is for Mesmers.
I know you can swap your second profession, but if I change again to Monk, will al those skills be still their. I mean, will I lose skills or anything else by switching ?
