I believe i do it the normal way, kill the grasping in the beginning and then dash out of the aataxes, then run all the way to the chaos planes. I have 12 fire, 16 shadow arts. Its the build almost everyone is running, any ideas why its taking me alot longer? And no, i don't believe im on hard mode
Most people say 20-30 min for A/E UW farm, but mine is 45+ mins?

I wondered the same thing when i first started, your probably only aggroing 1 rider at a time, get 3-4 and you will get the 20-30 times (ive never gotten below 25 though)

MoR/LF is superior but I know ppl have different opinions on this so I will just say use what works best for you. If you tried the MoR/LF and saw that your runs were a bit faster, use that instead or vice-versa.
As to your loosing aggro problem, try to keep your HP below 100 (Let SF wear off (without aggro!) and then recast. Also helps if you use a vamp weapon set in between aggroing mobs.) and bring a flat bow for pulling.

Personal best is 18 minutes.
Loaded fast, dashed to quest, aggrood intire room, kill stuff fast. Dashed to Chaos Plains. (I DIDN'T wait for the Squidies that shock you, I just ran right past them -They usually don't even shock you-)
Agrood first 4 groups (Got bad luck on aggro, so I could have cut +-a minute here), then the bottom 3 (Also got relatively bad aggro, could have cut another minute) and then the last 2.
In overal, it was a very good run (Also got 7 ectos
) and I think I could have done it in 16 minutes.
I ain't surprised if people get 14-15 minutes tough, simply because I don't cut any corners etc. (Believe me: cutting corners, "luck spawns" on Behemoths can easily save U minutes)
Just think of this: If it looks faster to do it that way, it most likely is:
It mathematicly is faster to aggro as much "dream riders" as possible, than if you were to do one by one. 4 Seems the most U can get in the beginning, so that simply is the fastest way to do it. (I've done 5 before, but they spawned really lucky, close to eachother and they had enormous radius before breaking aggro)

My runs are usually 25-30 minutes, but I only take 2 Banished at a time, take an extra minute to kill 6 Aatxe in the opening room with my mob of Grasping, and aggro/mob all Terrorweb and the 9 Mindblades that spawn with them at the end.
I love getting 2-4 ecto a run, also. (Sarcasm for any of you who haven't installed the sarcasm extension yet.)

I use the phoenix/inferno build and my run usually take 20-25 min. I aggro pretty much like what "Killed u man" did in the above post. The grasping should take about 1 min. Once at the chaos plains, I aggro 6 dreamriders, 4 alone one and 2 from the group with wailing lord. Once this group is done, it is usually between 9-12 min. Then aggro the 5 near the statue, 3 and 2 with wailing lord. Should be about 16-20min when done with these. Then the last 4, 2 and 2 with wailing lord. Should be 20-25 when done on average.

Yup thats what I was going to say, let SF run out and then renew just after to get 50 health. As long as you maintain agro after that as much as possible you wont regen and the monsters wont scatter.
Best I manage is 3 riders, then 3 riders then 2 and then 1 (and terrorwebs) its mostly just practise getting the times down, im sure I could be doing it a lil quicker but im comfortable with this setup. Using MoR/LF btw, tried Phoenix/Inferno and didnt like it but I might try again soon now ive done more practise.
