!!!IMPORTANT!!!

THIS BUILD WAS NOT ORIGINALLY MADE BY ME.I TAKE NO CREDIT FROM IT.JUST WANTED TO SHOW THAT IT ALSO WORKS IN FOW TO THOSE WHO DIDN'T KNOW IT YET.BUILD WAS ORIGINALLY MADE TO SOLO TOMB OF THE PRIMEVAL KINGS AND IT WAS MADE BY:
Rawlinson Sausal.Airji Kilment helped A LOT in the buildmaking.
Original build can be found: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10098485
!!!IMPORTANT!!!

First I must say that this is really REALLY great build.All credit of buildmaking goes to Rawlinson Sausal and Airji Kilment who helped him really much in buildmaking. I just hope that the build won't get nerfed.You can kill almoust everything in FoW with the build but groups with monks can be pain in the ***..you can ignore them or try to kill them, own choice.

EDIT:

I made VIDEO where I solo FoW Beach and Spider Cave...you should check it out =) it's my second video ever so don't take it too seriously Here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2ADjYB5A0g

*NEW*The Forest of the Wailing Lord Video is finally ready...you can find it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkULhWSa-gA *NEW*
I hope that you like the video =)

I also added video where i solo tombs with the same build. So if you want to check it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJF1g50scyY

Skills are: Arcane Echo,Shadow Form,Shadow Of Haste,Dark Escape,Empathy,Black Lotus Strike,Black Spider Strike and Twisting Fangs.

Getting started


Take that group first. You can basically kill any group of shadow army as long as there is no monk. Monk makes things a bit harder (impossible in other words )


Ok now i feel lucky =D


You can farm many places in FoW but if you want to the beach then you should take that way.


Wice to run there if you are going to beach...use Dark Escape to get past enemies.After you arrive to the rock you need to hide behind it, there will come shadow army groups from right side of you.Wait and let them run pass,after that run to the same direction where shadow army groups came from.


You will meet these 3 when you are going to the beach.Kill them.One of those dropped me obsidan key so now i have one shapphire and key from this run


HAHAA DIE YOU BASTARD... just remembered the times when scales killed my warrior...so i wanted to have some fun now when I WAS the one who owned


Welcome to the beach...now just kill everything you see one by one :P


Well almoust =D


O_o spiders eek


Keep going until you are at the end of the cave...THIS IS SLOW BTW...JUST WANTED TO SHOW THAT IT'S DOABLE!

Forest of the Wailing Lord



First i must say that Forest of the Wailing Lord is a bit harder than FoW beach+cave because here are enemies that can actually harm you even if you have Shadow Form on you. But it's still very doable =P

Killing Spirit Shepherds:
These little bastards use Lightning Touch which can and WILL hurt you once you go near them..so you need to tactic a bit or otherwice you will find yourself dead really fast :S

At start make shadow of haste at safe spot as always,then run near shepherds and cast ae+shadow form.After that's done you need to cast empathy BUT DON'T ATTACK IT MELEE YET. Instead wait, spirit shepherd will take damage because it's hexed with empathy.


Wait for empathy to recharge and cast it again (remember to cast Shadow Form also).Once you have casted empathy+shadow form second time wait for a bit(2-3seconds) before you make contact.


Now use all attackpower you have...spirit shepherd should die pretty fast. As you can see Lightning Touch really hurts so watch your hp.If it gets low and you fear that they will use it again soon (10second recharge time) use dark escape to get safe.


Spirit Shepherds hp will go down fast...


BANG!! (different shepherd because i didn't get the exp to the other pic :P)


Repeat this until every Spirit Shepherd is dead =D easy if you are careful.

Killing Rock Borer Worms:

These enemies can be pain in the a$$...first i had some problems because their choking gas can interrupt you even if you have Shadow Form on you so they used to interrupt my empathy casting. BUT i made a way to kill them (any other choice O.o???)
The idea is very simple:

Cast Shadow Of Haste at safe point as always. Make sure that the patrolling spirit sherpherd group is not present...then cast Arcane Echo and aggro the worms...they will use choking gas but they won't attack you...wait about 5 more seconds and then cast Shadow Form followed with Empathy. They will blind you but don't worry...it only lasts about 3-5 seconds.


When their hp goes down they will use Lightning Reflexes which can be pretty annoying if you are unlucky. If it seems that you can't make it, use dark escape and shadow step to safety...no need to take risks, you can always try again =P


O_o i was lucky again


Killing Spirit Woods:

They are maybe the easiest enemies in forest to kill =P so just aggro and SMASHHHHHHH and they will be dead in no time =)





Owned =D

More pics coming soooooooooooooooooon =)

I'll try other areas in FoW too once i have time to do it. I also try to post more videos when i have time to make/edit them.

OFF TOPIC:

We call ourselves....THE TOMB RAIDERS :P

Daggers Of One on the left,then Rawlinson v Sausal,then Da Noobmaster(me) and last but not least Geyski Mcdoogal

and we surely had fun =D

GJ on making it through FoW...I think if you didn't need empathy / could somehow get in an interrupt you could probably kill groups with shadow monks.

-ANYWAYS GOOD JOB MAN!!!!! VERY NICE TO TAKE IT TO THE NXT LEVEL UM SINCE AMERICA DOESNT HAVE FAVOR CAN U GO TO THE FOREST LIK CHECK IT OUT IF DEY USE LIKE D AREA SPELL. UM ANYWAYS GOOD LUCK WITH THAT!1 AND UBER NICE JOB!! OH BTW DONT FORGET THAT D ZOMBIES WITH TWO BONDS ARE ALSO HARD BESIDES THE UM SHADOW MONKS. ANYWAYS CONTINUE D GOOD WORK!!!



*** GOTTA BUY ME SOME BURGERS, MAN HAS TO EAT!! TWO ULTI CHEESE BURGERS WITH 5 CURLY FRIES AND 2 LARGE FRUIT PUNCH BWAHAHAHHAHAA Here is your answer :P


2seconds later...

Spirit Shepherds are hard though because they use lightning touch or something which ignores shadow form :S the trick is to cast empathy just outside aggro range..then let it attack you a bit..when empathy resharges cast SHADOW FORM again followed by empathy....wait about 4seconds and use those attack skills you have...then immediately use dark escape to get safe....shepherd should die to degen like in that picture :P good luck trying one more thing...those worms that pop up from the ground interrupt...but they can be killed anyway :P

DoA i thik has a lot of people who use powerful touch skills which can go through Shadow Form, so if you can some how incorporate the paragon skill "Can't Touch This", i doubt you can solo the place. There might be some mobs you can, not to sure.

Good job.. I imagine this gets pretty boring after some time, though. How long did it take you to clear the beach and cave?

I will have some fun with this, though xD

So, Am i doing something wrong are does it really take both shadowforms to kill a single spider?..
They kind of counter the degen with resilience so you have to stay with them all the time

Congratulations... you took my suggestion and made it into its own thread. Why? Anyone with half a brain could see that the solo Tombs build would work in FoW. Hell i even said it wouldn't work on Shadow Monks. You put alot of effort in... but seriously big whoop. Its not hard to understand a near invincible assassin can clear it. Its just a shame you have to do it 2 enemies at a time... it would be faster and more profitable to use a real team and pick up the drops at the end of the run.

Most importantly. Was it worth the effort? The answer? No. Shards are worthless and can be gotten by a Ranger or Warrior quicker if needed. Sapphires are just pure luck. Items aren't inscriptable so the chances of a gold worth something are slim.

Wonder how long till people start whining and pointing out 'its just to prove the 'sin is leet'...
