Greetings.

I've been trying to Dcore farm a lot with Glints challenge as a W/RT. I know the build.

VwK
Bonetti's
Iway
Air Of Superiority
Light of Deldrimore
Alkars Alchemy
Endure Pain
Signet of Stamina

My strength is 13, Restoration magic 12, and tactics 3

I have 521 health and 22 energy

I use Rocktails sword and Exalted Aegis (from endgame shiro)


all my armor has -3 damage reduction insignias.

For some reason I keep getting overthrown by damage in Glint's Challenge. I've only successfully completed a run once, and it was because I got lucky with Air of Superiority making all my skills recharged a bunch of times keeping VwK up for a long time.


Anyone know why I keep getting killed? Or maybe someone can show me ingame?

My name is thedeadlyassassin W

you need to be able to move around or else the spirit rifts would kill you. I was shown this build a bunch of times in various videos on youtube and they all seem to have worked, for some reason I get owned.

i use dolyaks sig, because i dont have air of superiority (i've saved the quest to farm norn reputation) - and it works like charm - u can still walk away from the spirit rifts...
the another thing: use sentinels armor (+20 armor vs elemental) instead of knights - the most damage comes from lightning damage, and not from phisical ones...

There is far easier way to do this with a warrior. Take a W/Rt build, all the skills you need are Dolyak and VWK and sig of stamina, add a ranger hero with sup Wilderness Survival headpiece, use Serpents quickness to keep QZ up all the time.

With a hero she'd/he'd take some of the drops. I may die, but I've already have gotten about 15 dcores and 1 black dye, a total of about 13k or so.


EDIT: I just would like to survive to get more drops per round and be able to pick up the gold left on the ground

1.: i'm using dolyak, and still got enough time to get away from spirit rifts - the key is to keep moving in small circles whlie VwK is recharging - so none of the rifts will hit you, and you still don't brake the aggro...
2.: another thing: I use IWAY after 4 of the 8 dwarfs are dead, and use it again, when all of the dwarfs are dead - this gives you 2x40 secs of health regen, instead of 1x50-60 secs, because the corpses of the dwarfs are vanishing, and as I've experienced only the visible corpses trigger IWAY...
3.: an extra +5armor in the weapon and +10armor vs lightning in the shield can help a lot (I don't use them myself, so they are not a must)
4.: try to "acyd" as many destroyer of souls as many you can, while VwK is on - they are the only ones, who can really harm you...

pump your health higher, and keep moving, use endure pain liberally, the armor ignoring lamentation spikes can really bring you down.

Air of Superiority REALLY helps though...recharging VwK and Endure is really really nice.

I bring an extra restoration heal (soothing memories for me, though it doesn't really matter) to help too
