I realize this topic may be considered EotN/hero related, but I've asked in the threads on the EotN forum and not gotten a satisfactory response. If an admin feels this thread isn't appropriate then please move it and PM me with the thread's new location.



Basically, I'm looking for H/H builds that will work with my Rit primary. I'm asking the Rit community, because so far it has been very hit and miss for me in this dungeon. All the other Slaver's dungeon are easily repeatable for me

At the moment the best thing I've found is me going as painful spirit spam, Gwen as a Migraine+Conundrum interrupter, Master of Whispers as an SS/corpse control and Livia as a N/Rt resto build. Hench are the two warriors and two monks.

At this point I'm willing to try anything. I've UAS so hero builds are not a problem.

Please, don't suggest powerstones of courage. I'm able to do the other dungeons w/o them and I'd like to do w/o them Forgewight too.

Thanks.

What im not seeing is a ton of damage. Your main source seems to be the SS and maybe a painful bond. What I might try is maybe using just 2 N/RTs for healing (will be nice since disenchantment is everywhere. Then get just one warrior and the rest nukers for as much dmg as you can get.

Other option is become a weaon spells rit and load the warriors up with splinter and warmongers.

My first time through, I rain a painful bond build with I forget what else. I stacked up 60DP pretty quickly and just slogged my way through it. It took forever.

Second time through, I went with another human.

I was a Rt/R running splinter barrage, pain inverter, frozen soil, and some other junk
N/rt restoration hero with icy veins
N/rt minion bomber with resto heals
N/rt ss necro necro
W/P ursan blessing
N/E tainted flesh warder with putrid/rising bile
N/rt another resto
N/mo SV necro

Completely ripped through all 4 areas suffering maybe 3-4 deaths. Doesn't work quite as well in hard mode, everything has too much HP to die.

Thanks guys.

It has definitely been a rough balancing act between damage and healing. My real troubles are with the stupid henchmen who seem to like to stand right in the middle of Searing Heat and Firestorm while letting Burning Spirits hit them with Searing Flames and Rodgort's Invocation. I can flag heroes away from this inferno, but I can't seem to get Mhenlo and Lina to not run right into it.

I'll try out the build you've both posted and see if I can make any progress.

no rez since morale boosts are rare for the rez sig. Ulcerous lungs makes the jagged horrors stronger.

I don't think I ran recuperation there, but I can't rememeber what else.

I completely forget the SV necro build, we may have actually run some more resto stuff on him. The only things that do much in the blood line are spoil victor and blood rit. Everything else kinda sucks.

For my healers one is WoR and the other is SLW, also one has life and other has recovery as recup is too expensive there basically the sway builds. Or I run the necros as a MM combo, one takes jagged, rotting flesh, putrid, rising bile, death nova, and a few other skill plus dps. main mm takes OoU, bone minions, shambling horrors, rising bile, BoM, ,Masochism, and FoMF. I run a SY TNTF para, and last hero is morghan with DA and mending refrain ( I cast on everyone and I keep it up on party with anthem of weariness). When I go to slavers morghan takes FS and I just control it. We are hard kill at +100 armor and +3 regen. Not many break the mm wall, this is of course not for all areas as mms cannot be made everywhere. But when one mm explodes usually its 4 at a time.

Sorry for typing on mobile device.
