LOL
1. See post above. Dahnels build is capable of killing colds.
2. You're still not getting it. You specifically stated "my build is better" and referenced "my build" several times.
Instead of trying to make it sound like "your build", next time try stating it as a varation.
"I swapped skill X for skill Z in my variation of Dahnel's build and it seems to work better for me"
That give's credit where credit is due and doesn't sound like a 13 year old posting "mine is better than yours!"

Could you please provide some factual information to back that up? If not, then it's just your observation on your runs. For me, the smites drop 85% of the ecto I have received. I don't think you can really say one or the other drops more ecto. It seems to differ for players.

In my personal opinion, the dual run is still faster and more reliable, but I had fun trying this one out. I send my respect to Dahnel for discovering it.
This Rt/Me is the fastest build by far. There is no spawn that causes problems for this build if you understand how to use it. I've done roughly 25 straight runs with no deaths and I've talked to a few others with the same success. If that nightmare is giving you problems, equip a wand or bow and hit Illusion of Haste. Run up and aggro the aatxes/grasps (spawning the nightmare) and run back to the starting position. The nigtmare won't strip you if you turn around as soon as you hear him spawn. Once the aatxes are back in place just wand the nightmare or lure him down to you. Make sure you have Illusion of Haste on if you are going anywhere near the aaxtxes just in case.
The only advantage a dual run has is that you can kill the aatxes too, but then you have to 50/50 drops so it's more profitable to go alone.
You can whisper me in game if you want to see what I'm trying to explain. A character from each of my accounts is listed <---- in my profile under the avatar. **My Ritualist is on the European servers though. I haven't made one on my American account.
Another thing that I think makes the first room easier is to take the grasps on the right first. After you take the quest, wait for the group on the right to come down. They almost always make at least one trip down the stairs. After that, they often get stuck behind the aatxe forcing you to run to the safe spot by the closed doors to kill them. This will make it much easier for those of you getting pinched at the closed doors while fighting the grasps up there. |
