2 man underworld smite runs? will this work?

Do you remember what quest you got that Fire Wand from? I'm real interested in getting one...

I use spells with a one second cast time, they only work if you time it right however because the interuptions do get annoying, especially when youre tanking about 5 - 15 mobs. Your so full of it.... you wouldnt last 20 seconds in FoW by yourself... message me in game I got to see this.... If you can solo FoW, Ill eat my words.

I've found that Word of Healing or Dwayna's Kiss works better than the Signet for healing. There is more than enough Mana and these faster heals help duing the scary parts between Healing Seeds Uh...which signet are you referring to for healing? Blessed signet is for energy regain.

Actually through further testing, vigorous spirit isn't needed...the monk can hold their own fine. One extra skill slot to ponder over.
Took down squids without energy problems, and tanked coldfires easily.

We did some 2 person exploring and managed to get pretty far. The obsidian behemoths are solo-able by E/Me, but if one of them gets off healing spring, you might have to wait until your energy and skills recharge.
We finally got bored and just suicided on the dead thresher/collector.



Those things are huge, they only appear small since they're in the distance. They probably cast lingering curse like the flesh golems since they seem to have the other skills, so our builds wouldn't do much anyways.

I find this hard to believe also. If you are soloing with a necro....post the exact skills, and your attributes. Also tell us your casting sequence. If you are really doing what you say you are then it's awesome. I find it hard to beleive that a solo necro could do the kind of damage needed to kill the creatures in UW. Let alone be able to survive the hits coming in from 1 Ataxe let alone 6 or 7 like we can tank with Mitee's protections running.

coldfires are really tough for me solo.. so you just strafe around their malestrom??
Your able to solo in UW?

How about sharing your build.

What is your Primary/Secondary?

What are your atrributes at?

What skills are you running and what is your sequence for using them?

Or by solo do you mean fight by yourself in a multi person party?

Just curious.

P.S.

I have found that in the 2 man build we are running straffing is a bad idea against the cold fires. Then tend to charge past me and then see the protection monk in the rear. I usually just stand in the maelstrom and bear it out.

I also would like to know his build and casting sequence.

Im a regular necro and I farm UW and FoW by myself, I just bring someone with rebirth for the occasional time I die. This is complete nonense. I've tried various combinations of necro skills and you can't farm with them. They are support.

I've been looking through the monk skills and while it would be possible to solo, I don't think you could take on a big mob and it would probably take a while to kill. In our 2-man build we can easily handle 7-8 at a time and have them all dead in under 60 seconds. Depending on what type of tank we use it has been a little as 15-20 seconds to clear a mob. I think that what you give up in drops you more than make up for in time with a 2-man team. When we run our 2 man team (2 monks), the smiter is able to "somewhat" heal himself, and in the past, has run solo, at least through aatxes, smites, and coldfires. The second monk is protection primarily, with a couple of heal spells to counter bleeding, maelstorms, and the like.
Whether you run a smite monk or warrior (or elmo, or...) as your tank, the second person is focused entirely on enchantments and some minor healing, and thus doesn't contribute to damage. At least the way we are set up...

In our experience, the only way to speed up the damage is to add ranged/nuking attacks from a third player. So in other words, the damage per second, or killing speed, is consistent whether there are one or two players, as player 2 doesn't contribute to the DPS.

Perhaps there are other ways, I fully conceed that the way we set up may not be the way others run their 2 man teams. But since 4 enchants are required to be maintained by player 2, as well as provide spike heals, it doesn't leave much room in the skill bar for damage contribution.
