Hiding behind a Wall might work but then OOA is put on the Guards also so they will Strip the Enchantments if they hit you. The Necro and two Sickened Guards or Rangers are in 1 party so OOA effects them also.

Essence bond doesn't trigger if Shielding Hands is on.

yup if you take 0 damage while enchanted with Shieldin Hands you dont get energy from it, but it works with SoA...Strange, isnt it?

I've been farming the mission with this build (and having no problems from starburst either).

Use necrotic traversal to get through the gates without having to wait for togo. Consequently he won't move to follow you and won't die while you get the freedom to do the whole mission without worrying about him to get last hit or die or whatnot. Lots of golds, only one serpent axe so far though and its req12 crap

Never thought of that one before!

Incidentally... I'm guessing there is no way in hell a Necro-Primary could manage this.... due to degen or whatnot...
But I figured I'd throw that out. Mostly since my Monk primary doesn't have the required necro elites.

You'd better use Spoil Victor, i used SS also, the i went spoil and when i used spoil i go muhc more drops. and if you use SoA var. you dont have to use Essence Bond nor' watchful spirit=+1 free slot ( which you use for vamp gaze/ins. parasite to ,kill guards ) btw. i also got a tribal axe from a guard, tho it was white, and non max dmg ( crap ) | Skull Shields | Serpent Axes (rarely) | Bo Staffs, general loot, i love this place. simple and easy

lolz, i cant believe you guys have never noticed you could teleport during that mission past the gates. i guess the "secrets" out lol. i use W/N to do runs for people for free on normal, and a 55 necro for the farm in hardzilla
Ati
i noticed something ^^ I dont have runs without tribal axes. At least one always drops. Usually one of the guards in the group of that man who is killing his brother wields it, but not always...
Never gotten any golds or max dmges yet tho, but they drop

Has anyone tried farming the Lost Son quest in hardmode?

When you say Mammoth do you mean Mammoth Axe? I got a req9 15^50 in Cho's Estate last night when I was going for a Sickle (they drop Tyria Sickles oddly enough). I didnt know the Mammoth Axe was valuable. They look nifty.
On topic though, I got a white serpent axe from Naga on Shing Jea Island last night when going for a gold sunqua blade, so I suppose a gold serpent axe could come from there.

Nothing is rare anymore in HM.
Even GOTH drops like rain (perfect ones are still rare, but it used to be hard just to get it to drop).
Only items that ppl can't find yet are 15^50 tyrian sickle and tribal.

Just wondering because haven't seen any max dmg before HM, nor any drops besides Shining Jea
