Avatar of grenth: Grenth is amazingly powerful, even for lv 20's, but the skill worth it. At first i tried killing him head on, but that didn't work but he a good advantage for those part devish/necro,element, and others that there 2nd prof is a magic or range. they'res a person near the area u find him, try to get him stuck on the guy near the area and bam! keep hitting him with range or magic attks and also keep a distance in case he uses grenth's fingers. This is for anyone strong enough to kill him [ was lv 18 when i capped his skill and was my first!] otherwise make should u have a person who and lower his speed.

Huh?
Never had a problem with any of the Avatars... They may hit hard but they're all melee, standard stuff like Prot Spirit, B-Surge and Ward vs Melee works.

Now, aloe seeds... that's hard.

I think you're forgetting that this is the first time off the tutorial island for many Dervs. It's also a fairly unique challenge for a boss to have an unremoval buff like a Form. This is why lots of people are looking for cap PUGs.

In any case, what I found really difficult about these caps isn't the boss, but the accompanying mobs. There's usually 15+, and with the boss wreaking havoc it isn't easy to pick them off.

This is particularly bad with Grenth, because there's no way to aggro them without her.

Just from that aloe see response i can see you have no idea what you're talking about. Do not make a guide.

There is no need for a guide to capping Form elites. The people who would actually benefit from such a guide likely do not frequent these forums. Besides, said guide would be one sentence long: "Learn to pull with a long bow and make sure Tahlkora has Protective Spirit."

Now you just make yourself look like a fool.

Yeah the whole pimping AoG sort of gave away your inexperience. Grenth hasn't been good for much of anything since they nerfed his PvP applications.

Balthazar, Grenth, Lyssa, and Dwayna all get owned nicely by [skill]Ebon Dust Aura[/skill]. Melandru is really the only one you might have trouble with because it's immune to conditions.

But still, [skill]Protective Spirit[/skill] > stupidly oversized moving tree bosses.

I really didn't have any trouble capping any of the Avatars, used Heros, Henchies, and pulling skills. Made sure any roving patrols were taken care of, didn't want unwanted groups sneaking up behind me.

Now Vow of Silence on the other hand, that was tough to get. Ripped that off Vahlen the Silent, with a couple of Guildies, without the benefit of the Wurms (hadn't reached that mission at the time.) But that's another thread.

I really don't think a guide is needed for capping the 5 elites. It's really not that hard at all.
