I repeat

Will I lose skills if i Change to mesmer and than back to Monk?

No, you will keep any skills for any class that you have unlocked ( learned) with that char.

I went to mineral springs with henchies to cap Shield of Judgement (got it), and decided to try my luck with the imps, got one on the first kill

. I also got my new 15k glads infused that day... best drop i've ever had.
Oh and BTW nice vid.

I wonder if it's possible to kill the ICE BEAST, it's just invincible with his mist form . Any hints ?

Sometimes the Stone Summit on the side just before teh gate into mieral springs get in my way, and they kill me before I can get in. Other times the giants kill me. Am i doing something wrong?

Hehe, thanks a lot dude, I got an IDS on my 1st run =) .

Slabby · Apr 13, 2006, 05:33 PM // 17:33

Destroyer, if you have enough attack power you can just swith an attack skill for Balanced Stance, that's what i do.
And for the stone summit: The heretics slow you down. I always get 15% DP when entering Mineral Springs. It's just normal.

Ran it and 18 imps, a troll and a siege golem later, got two IDS, without favor.

Well i have made like 600 grotto ice imps runs last weaks, and they DONT drop IDS. Tons of wands , artifcacts and hearts and some money but nothing else....

I can barely reach the golems due to my "slowed" pace. HOW?

inspired hex ftw?

Scored an IDS my first solo

Swapped around a few skills, but pretty sexy build. I did have trouble with the last group in that picture, the ice golems and rust = me no happy =(

Meh big file but thanks for the nice guide anyway!

I don't mean to bash on anyone, but honestly people, I don't quite understand how hard it is to follow the SUPER simple instructions he layed out for you. I literally read this post yesterday, spent 5 mins reading his post, got the video, and did the run.
I don't even have armor on my sword (just a 15^50 fellblade), I don't have any superior runes, all minor ones and a major vigor, but i did get the Leuitenant's helm. Personally, I didn't really need it, but it does help.

I did the run twice, first time got to cave, died because of my own stupidity (no big deal), did it a 2nd time, and no problems, I killed the Trolls, killed the Golems, and Imps. No IDS, but very happy to see a successful build.

You have to make sure that you have the right attributes setup. Ele Resistance on my build lasts about 40 seconds, and it takes only 20 seconds to recharge (and I have inspiration at 4 i believe), so there should no issues having it up all the time!!

Simple Rule: SPAM Heal Sig, Watch Yourself! and Dolyak Sig whenever possible. The way I look at it, it's better if it takes you 3x as long to clear the cave and stay alive then to be in danger of getting killed because you get interrupted on heal sig when you need health.

The ONLY two things I would definitely have would be a Zealous Sword because it helps a lot in always having energy, but it IS possible to do without it, and i would swap an attack skill for Balanced stance to get past the giants easily (but I did without it).

I consider myself a noob/amateur player (even though I'm a quick learner), so if I can do it on the first try, SPECIALLY with such a great clear video and instructions, I don't see how anyone else can't. Just my 2 cents....

GREAT JOB and thank you!

Hey, nice guide, i just do the Imps outside of Ice Caves.

kito · Apr 22, 2006, 02:01 PM // 14:01

Wow, ive spent at least 70k on this build, and got everything almost exactly as you do (down to the mods on your swords, except mines a flamberge and req 9 not 8) and wasnt succesful up to today, when i found out what shield you were using, got 2 bleached shells and got it from the collector.

I have succesfully cleared both parts of the caves of ice imps, plus 3 trolls and 2 ice golems. No IDS dropped, but Im now happy to see that the build works! Cant wait to get on tomorrow ! thanks much for making such a great vid and guide! :P

The Afterlife Knight · Apr 23, 2006, 10:08 PM // 22:08
