2 man Urgoz

I got bored doing my homework, so I decided to distract myself by booting my laptop into XP and running two copies of GW at the same time. I slapped a quick build on either of my accounts, grouped them, and this is what resulted:



There were sadly no chests, and I doubt I wouldve been able to handle Thorn Wolves anyways. But, this raises a very interesting point - you can Hero-way Urgoz.

This is important because it only takes 1-2 people to actually kill Urgoz, and if the Heroes are flagged far enough away they will not be assigned drops. Meaning that your chance of getting each of the green bows goes from one in 12, to one in 3. (ideally one for everyone)

I found that trying to play two accounts, AND manage their heroes to be a *bit* much for me, but as you can see I got fairly far with it.

I plan on going through and doing this later in the week, but will need some help... if that sounds like your idea of a good idea (fun AND profitable) then contribute here.

Now all thats left is to decide the ideal party composition.

I think that an Earth ele tank would not be a bad idea, at all, since they are capable of taking -0 from Fire Flowers, can be made immune to knockdowns and spells, and they play well with the idiot heroes. QZ benefits them greatly, which is a favorite of trappers... an Urgoz staple.

I really really doubt that heroes will be able to manage their spell usage well in exhaustion areas, so that adds even more of a reason to use Barrage Rangers.

Razah can be used as a Rit hero, if someone has him, but since thats unlikely, and Ritualists are so useful, its likely best to have a Ritualist as a player-character. Since EOE is needed for killing Urgoz, you can slide that into your bar as well.

And, hero Monks do not use Heal Party how they should. This is major, and requires A) cleverness B) manual use C) a PC with Heal Party. This gives you a wide bit of room in the third PC, as Prodigy eles can HP spam well, but so can Monks with BIP backup / Light of Deliverance.

One of the benefits of using Heroes as damage dealers, is that they can be forced to follow targets. Unlike PUG'ers.

Thoughts?

This is sweet! I have been wondering how to solo urgoz (that and DoA are the only reasons i live =P) but really, you dont need to solo him. Three people is more then enough. I will have to try this if i can find a ferry.

Edit" Yeah PM me too ingame, The Red Nagus is my monk, who i am probably best with.

hey, i'll help out if you want, i have a ranger and warrior just pm Torpoon Bowmaster. I also have a ritualist but im not nearly as experienced with him as i am with my ranger.

Hmm...don't see any reason to cover your bars...you're pretty much running a generic urgoz group (except with heroes) or an sf / modded. Basically you've just simplified builds to reduce micro-ing and allow you to more easily get drops.
