Dervish Solo tours - Underworld - part II

Today we go to Smitesworld *yay ectos*

(AaVSQOUpqaxqT4G6Ku/ueQRQS4AD)

9 Illusion
5 Inspiration
10 + 1 + 2 Scythe
5 + 1 Wind
10 + 2 Mysticism
+ Sup Vigor
+ Scythe with 20/20 + 15^50 or 15% enchant + 20% Enchants
+ Windwalker Insignia

Enter the Underworld and accept the quest
Lure the first group of graspings away from the Aaxtes using Pious Hast, use Physical Resistance, wait for the Distracting Blows to come out, then use Visage
Put up Vow + Mystic Vigor + Heart of Fury and kill them, remember to keep up visage [Pic1]
( if your visage gets interrupted, just cast the other one, if mana needed use VoW, even after all of them used "Fear me" you get 5 mana for VoW before the next "Fear Me")

Proceed this way with the other groups of graspings and run to the smites


Now the Smites :
1. Choose a group to lure
2. Decide for a place where you can ball them ( preferable corners, else use the free space to ball them )
3. put up Physical Resistance
4. Aggro them
5. Use Visage if u got them in ur wanted position
6. Use VoW + Mystic Vigor
7. Hit them 3 Times ( once victorous sweep)
8. Cast Heart of Fury
9. Cast another Visage
10. If you forgot the put up Resistance ur already dead
11. If the group was only 3 Smites they should die without the need of putting up another Visage
12. collect the ectos

btw: bad Luring = dead , critical rubberbanding = dead, trying to fight the coldfires = dead

Here some Pics:
[Pic2]
[Pic3]
[Pic4]

Note: Playing that build isn t that easy, you need a bit of timing and training, cause ur life might drop quite low when casting all the stuff ( sometimes even under 80).
If the Smites put up SoJ when fighting them you did something wrong, or you are fighting less than 3 ( thats quite challanging).
A whole Run takes about 10 to 15 mins, a group 3 smites is dead in like 20 secs ( Victorous sweep + Critical + 20% ~129dmg ^^)

You find a lot of keys and nearly no chests, so if you wanna open some chests, you might try my other uw build [Link]

Questions Comments etc right here

Looks very nice. ill have to try this on my dervish. Question:

How long does one run take? Is it faster than ele or rit soloing smites?

Nice build, gonna have to try it out soon.

Mysticism is probably high enough to use EE + SV. EE at 12 lasts 17 seconds, with 20% enchanting its 20 seconds, which is just its recharge. By then SV will also have recharged.

Actually that might be better than SV + AV, since AV costs 10 energy while EE only costs 5.

I've been practising with this build, but I think it's too risky, I know well UW now (coz I used to do W/Rt), but my health is usually between 0 and 100 at the smites, one 2-sec late cast and you are dead in secs.

You can t keep it up for exactly 100%, but can keep it up as long as its needed. So neighter the Smites nor the Graspings will get 5 Mana in the Downtime.

If I have a bit lag, or I dont know why, cant keep up the visages, and they can cast a spell (or two), and it hurts because of the fire dmg (zealots fire) :S. But it only happens rarely.

So im guessing this build cannot be done
if i dont have AV?

Build works well, however i have a little problem with this sometimes.
Smites sometimes tend to put SoJ or other powerfull spells up before even hitting me, thus not getting affected by visage, this can cause a problem.

I also saw that behaviour before, it hapens when smites fought with other smites or Coldfires, than they put it up when its recharged in order to heal themselfes with Divine Favor
Just wait till they are up again and then lure
