yeah meeting your shield req ftw, though having a couple sec longer enraging charge isn't that bad
out of curiousity, how many smites have you gotten with your biggest aggro? there's one spawn i seen the other day that there were smites all along the right side of the big O, as well as 2 or 3 more groups to the right of them, 6 groups at the least.
too bad they fight each other like mad...and you sit there going "aww man, there goes my ecto for the run"

max_rulez
my best was 27 smites. pretty lucky tho. when they go canibal, just go stand in the middle and hit cyclone, then run away to where ever your gonna kill em again. works most of the time.
blackknight1337
yeah what sucks is if you get bodyblocked and then they go cannibal, zealots fire spike go go go go
worse yet is hitting triple chop when half them have soj up

Weird-I am running full knight's insignias and sup absorb and -2 stance shield-the graspings are still hitting me for 5-6-7-8-9 dmg with no stance up-I've died 3 times on the graspings now. i've tried to keep bonetti's up as much as possible but they still get me. should i be using phys resistance for this part? I don't understand how I see in the vid he is getting hit for 0-2 dmg but i am hitting for 7-8 with the same setup. Running the axe build, btw...

Yes, use physical resistence.
Yes, use physical resistence.
angmar_nite
he can't... I don't need it. Bonetti will keep canceling it out. Unless he uses a zealous axe.
{IceFire}
Yeah, which is the problem as I can't have energy for SV/AV without bonetti's. I dont have a shelter mod, but I didn't think that was needed..
angmar_nite
Might not be. What kind of -2 you have? I actually use enchantment ones over stance ones, because I'd rather have more protection from the graspings than a 2 second gap against the smites.
blackknight1337
you should have a physical mod (+7) on your icy weapon
graspings hit me for about 6s only on crit, most of the time like 2s and 3s
when you go below your safety level (for me i do about 200hp) use zealous axe and physical resistance, you will take 0 dmg
key to taking graspings is getting your visage up and keeping them from spamming fear me, if you pull all 12 you don't even have to have bonnettis up to cover for later visages
once you switch to zealous you should have no problem having energy provided you keep a visage up
sometimes graspings take me 5 min if ya get skullcracked trying to put a visage up repeatedly, one trick if you already have PR up and no energy, wait till PR is recharged, then hit bonettis, let it charge up you energy, visage, then back into PR, then triple chop > whirling, etc

took me a while to get how to pull all of them at once, but after that its not hard
chief problems are if a nm pops and follows you down, or if he pulls an attaxe down with him, either way he should be killed asap otherwise he rends visages and is a pita, not to mention his dmg isn't affected by PR thus he can kill you on low health, though he tends to bip himself to death before he can do that
@ dont feel, chamber done in 1 min ftw

Hey Dont Feel no Pain, nice looking build, but I was just wondering if this is doable without Factions (so no AV and Triple Chop)

afraid not, most uw builds require to visages as does this, though there are nightfall versions with rending aura.

I lured 3-4 groupes of smites, but when i killed them (15 smites) i only got 2 drops, did some runs with same result and no ecto :/
It seems if u kill many in one time u will get less drops, is that correct?

less junk drops, ecto doesn't seem affected, the speed makes up for it

I started attaining the skills for the Axe build got most of them but noticed one is a Sunspear skill and have not taken my War through Nightfall yet.
You probably need to get Sunspear rank 8-10 to really make this build work right?

Great build DFNP, too bad I always forget to switch to zealous weapon after luring and screw up all my runs. =/

so use a zealous axe
as for bonetti's just don't use it ALL the time only use it 1 time
it should be when physical resistence is at least 75% charged let them get your energy full and cast sv then immediately after (NOT DURING) the cast you put physical resistence back up and keep sv and av going (with help of the zealous)
you wont take any damage this way unless you time it wrong or they get a couple hits while bonneti's is up

You don't even have to so far in the game... Just get at least rank 1 and you can get the Sunspear Skills.

You just got tomahawked
Do you absoloutely need an elemental axe?
dont feel no pain
no
its just i made my guide to be the fastest uw farm so yeah
ele axe/sword of sehlter = for graspings and gathering smites
and zealous of enchanting = for killing smites...
you can do an entire run with just the zealous, it would take a min or 2 more.

Since i put whirlwind attack back into my setup i can do a run easily in under 15mins (laid back) so i recomend once you have done the run a few times and are happy that you wont need the healing, swap lions comfort out if you are using it and prepare for some extra damage and smoother runs...

Are you sure you have all of your armor pieces with Knight's Insignia? Also, you need 3 Superior Absorption Runes and 2 Major Tactics+Axe mastery... Even one Rune change can make a big difference (For the Abosorption/Knight's that is).
The reason you're taking 5 damage however, is most likely because if your shield. You should have a -2 In Stance Inscription on it, it makes a big big difference. You only take either 3 damage or none, and that's very important. If you want to relieve some of the pressure, just don't aggro to many groups until you're experienced enough to do so. :)

Im pretty sure 1 sup absorbtion coves all... and you only need minor tactics.

yea, i think even on the wiki it says that the superior absorbtion effect is global.. however i still manage to take 3/0 damage from the smites at most times.. although maybe it's because my superior absorbtion is on my boots
what i dislike about the smites part is that sometimes some of the smites fight the coldfires and win.. then when i bring past my smite groups, they aggro onto the other smites and start killing each other -- meaning i dont get anything from those that got killed by other smites :/
