Just a tip for collecting the drops: collect only the gold and die
(and don't travel back just wait the few secs)

Or you could just use /resign and get the drops anyway I actually thought it was faster in HM because all ennemies attack faster and therefor, die faster.

I was actually thinking of using

IWAY to suppliment when IWAY is down Feel No Pain and maybe "By Ural's Hammer but im not sure if a dead ally counts as below 50% health

Whats the point? It's about cores, and first wave is the fastest.

Seems a good choice and helps with energy for feel no pain

hmm why not make the hero ranger/mes and use arcane echo?

you could keep up serpents quickness indefinitely that way at a lower energy cost

Could be time for me to make a ritualist purely for solo farming

As I said before, IF you're doin NM go solo, cause with hero the drops suck.

Here's my ranger farm: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04NTujoyLsQ

HM is a different story.

Okay build is working in NM, but for some reason and i can't stay alive in HM.

I ran in with about 1050 HP + Doylak + VwK and my health drops to 0 in about 8 seconds...

Which insignias do you guys use?

Watch the timing in the video and pay attention to when he engages the mob and casts endure pain. If you time it right, you will recast the endure pain around the middle of the Vwk. look at the video's casting order and you should be fine. If endure pain goes out and you can't recast, its gg. If you can keep endure pain continously for a few rounds of vwk, u should be good to go.

Could be time for me to make a ritualist purely for solo farming Enchantments (arcane echo) are a no here without any anti cast such as obsideon flesh or spellbreaker as they use shatter enchantments quite often.

Im thinking of making a rit soon myself, but the armor seems like a good idea, I guess it would work with rt/me using elemental resistance, and having conflag on the ranger hero, it would also kill uber fast ^^

Found a pretty much fail proof way of doing this without slowing the build down.

Bonetti's Defense.

When Vwk starts blinking, hit Bonetti, then renew Vwk. If you get Bonetti's up while u cast, you won't get spiked down. And Vwk will cancel bonetti's so it doesn't slow down the build at all.

It was easy before, now i feel dumber everytime i do it =)


I run ...
15 str
12 restoration.

So with Bonetti's + Lion's comfort after each Dolyak, u should never die in HM.

Rit/mes tears thru normal mode here, best score I think I've gotten solo is 348 for the first wave.

You can use arcane echo in the normal run. I'm sure with a monk hero, maybe some bonds and spellbreaker you could do 2 man hard mode no problem.

Ya for hard mode run if you do Mo/r max divine favor, max wilderness and keep perma spellbreaker on the ritualist, it's non-stop Vwk. I just ran essence bond and balth spirit on the tank, blessed aura on the monk.

Personally prefer to just solo the normal mode for the cores, don't even have to move most of the time unless "is there anything I can't do" doesn't trigger at the right time.

It was a great spot for trick or treat bags for halloween

So I can solo farm this with my W/Rt (takes a bit of practice) by myself w/o the ranger hero in NM, but is it more worthwhile to go +1 hero in HM instead?

Depends what you wanna get. If you want cores, go nm alone. If you want less cores but more good drops go HM with a hero.

True, i always get more cores in NM, but i usualy do this on my ranger now, its the fastest way to do it =]

i would like to know if anyone has attempted this farm solo with a paragon.

im guessing it wont be much differnt, but the armor might be an issue, as solo, the energy wont allow to keep SYG! up with QZ, so... maybe its not possible, ill have to give this a try. if any1 else gets it to work with the para, please let me know..
