sry if I posted this in a wrong forum or that any1 has posted this before (did some research but didn't find any)

there is a very, very simple trick to do this:

reversal of damage: For 8 seconds, the next time target ally would take damage, the foe dealing the damage takes that damage instead (maximum 5...61)

just go with 8 ppl or 2 ppl with both 3 heroes

equip the skill and max out smiting prayers.

when you come in abbadon's room kill the monoliths right and left from him
don't aggro the middle group of monoliths.

when you killed the monoliths run back to the upper center of the room. (watch out for some torment claw spawn).

you'll see that when you killed the 2 groups of monoliths, he'll start to use words of madness (you'll be knock down and dazed)

between 2 words of madness, all cast RoD, he'll lose health. do this over and over again. an 8-men team could finish him in less then 10 min (NM) , and 10-15 HM

appologies again if this is the wrong forum or you all know this trick allrdy

PS: i don't know that this trick works with vengefull weapon or weapon of remedy, but i think it will

Weapon of Remedy would work, I think, it should at least.

cool idea, but Chadamir does have a good point, perhaps we should move to Elonian Explorer's?

There is a common run for the mission

runner bring 3 heros
kill monoliths on either side, leave the ones in the middle, then constantly spam:
runner: vengful weapon, weapon of remedy,
Monk heros: reversal of damage, BiP, (rest usual WoH)
Ele hero: ward of stability, BiP (rest usual SF)
takes about 8 mins, but it oculd take much less if you had 2 or 3 ppl casting

I would suggest weapon of remedy+wengeful weapon and some healing skill for all of your chosen heros

not farming, but running the mission and making 200k+ in less than 3 days. Not bad

I thought it's a pretty old trick, my buddy and I have been doing this for our guild for a while now. My buddy's got a Rit that does vengeful and remedy, I don't have a rit but I bring two monks heroes that do reversal of damage and heal area, I'll have to micro manage the two heroes but we always get master's.

Killing abbadon is probably the easiest mission in the whole game. You run around in a circle kill some guys hit a circle and run to the back of the room. The only people I can see paying for this are those who are too shaken up from gates of madness to actually do the final mission. I have henched/heroed this about 4 times and I've never missed masters. That being said Ruins of Morrah makes me want to tear my eyes out.

The mission does nothing but piss me off. Don't believe me? Try spending 30 minutes trying to kill him with Torment Claws popping up every 10 seconds and the final mob not revealing Abaddon 5 times in a row and just respawning. At 1 point i had about 25 Torment Claws on the screen...
I RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOing hate that mission!

No, it's not him. This mission is bugged and sometimes, like he said, there are millions of torment claws spawning and that 3rd group of monoliths also keeps respawning, preventing abadon to appear.

Really sucks, but still I've always completed it those times, just takes a bit longer

Ruins of morah is easier than u think,easier than either of the gate misions
just remember that Varesh CAN be knocked down
