Also Magma shields and Dead bows drop at the Fire Islands. Also Dwarven axes and Brute sword have a change to be dropped in the Southern Shiverpeaks.

It is worth noting that many of the Epidemic + ViM builds no longer work due to a change in ViM's mechanics.

I would think they would still be doable...just slower.

They may be possible but I got overwhelmed MUCH more easily and it slows the run to the point where I just gave up.

Hmm...You may be able to do it with a GB build then...just slowly.

How do you take on 6 smites or something like in your screenshot?
3 of them are a hard time for me. When doliak is down, the damage that comes in is massive, and SoJ knocks me down...
Anything i might be doing wrong?

Don't attack the smites because of SoJ. The only problem about the smites is that they will scatter. You don't need Dolyak Signet van VwK is on.

Mr Jorgen Sometimes there might be some Charged Blacknesses standing for the gate. If so, cast resilient weapon and hope you have some good luck. Normally the Blacknesses shouldn't be there I don't have any idea why though..

When you first enter the Mountains, there's a group of Charged that come down then go back up so make a trip so the CHarged blackness come down then wait till they go back up, then start running up.

Good grief - if ever a man was too skilled for Guild Wars...

Have you considered editing your wonderful solo guides to incorporate the new(ish) skill tags? (see: Guild Wars Guru Forum Skill Tags)

For example:

[skill]Final Thrust[/skill][skill]Riposte[/skill][skill]Deadly Riposte[/skill][skill]Grenth's Balance[/skill][skill]Plague Touch[/skill][skill]Dolyak Signet[/skill][skill]Healing Signet[/skill][skill]Sprint[/skill]

[ skill]Final Thrust[/skill][ skill]Riposte[/skill][ skill]Deadly Riposte[/skill][ skill]Grenth's Balance[/skill][ skill]Plague Touch[/skill][ skill]Dolyak Signet[/skill][ skill]Healing Signet[/skill][ skill]Sprint[/skill]

(I have used a leading space in the [ skill] tags to make the code show up - obviously you need to omit this

)

As somewhat of a noob, I often need descriptions to go with the skills, you see...

Carry on the good work Witte - please!

That build looks strangely familiary snograt.
