I have been trying to do it with a bonder/heal setup and a w/e obsi tank or some kind of 55 tank/aggro control with me as a Ss and my trusty ele mind blast ele you can clear a HUGE area of fow but i am far from being able to guide people

So you're basicly saying you find it hard to use ursan?

What, you mean run Ursan? Because with Sabway you need to micro only your minibar. You have a Ursan + heroes that don't need ANY help from you. And with UB you just press 1-2-3 all the time. You can play with one hand and read a book with the other.

Hmm. Swearing and calling names + saying someone is a troll = ftw ;d Oh, and thinking that Ursaning fow/uw is an accomplishment worth of mentioning. You don't even know how to reply to something without double-posting.

Back on topic a bit

but what's the best order to do the quests in?

I cleared FoW the other day with my guild and we did the griffon quest as the third one I think but all the fast time screenies I've seen recently have the griffon quest as the final one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10241020 Everything explained there. You can skip the first left part where you spawn btw.

Btw, Grasping Darkness don't be such a retard when you know you're wrong.

Normal mode ain't that great. My mesmer + bonder could, before mystic regen nerf, tank out really a lot of monsters, with healer and nuker I'd probably be able to clear fow. Too bad you didn't post the time.

Just curious...

But why do ppl hide the heroes they are bringing, their skill bars, etc?

Are they trying to keep it a secret? Or is it a something else?

You know if you have a friend drop off his heroes with you and dc... and you lag out and back in... his heroes stay with you but don't show in the party table???
I find that funny...

That Paragon + D/N + Rt/Mo + N/Rt either doesn't work well or I shouldn't have attacked a group with a Monk. My heroes got raped very fast, even with +100 armor and damage reduction, and WoH shadow monk kept healing himself + others. I'll try paragon + sabway tomorrow...

Really? It worked (very) well for me. Even 2 monk groups didn't pose a real threat. Just make sure you have splinter on you (micro if needed), and DS away on them. Your damage is sick and they can't handle it. If that doesn't work, lure them away from each other so their healing areas aren't healing each other. You can also decide to repeat the DS->BH->SS combo untill one target is death (KD'ing 1 all the time). The only times I have problems is when I have empathy + SS on me, but you can work around that by sending heroes in first.
I completed forgemaster earlier this evening but than I had to leave

I guess you can also go with the Earth shaker build, constantly KD'ing foes while doing sick damage with splinter.

Edit: woeps misread, I thought you went as warrior but you are para. Like I said, if you're ranged drop the rit and move splinter weapon to the n/rt

This thread is a complete failure.

Its a complete failure because I have wasted my time reading through 4 pages and I am non the wiser on how to clear fow with my heroes.

If you bother to make a thread like this there is no way that you should hide your builds.

So my question which is still unanswered after reading this thread is -

How can I solo all of fow using my monk or elly with just my heroes? Full builds please, not just the names of the elites.

The drops are going to be terrible, it's going to take forever, it's (probably) only possible in normal mode, and it's really freaking boring. You could probably clear it twice on hard mode with a full team (ursan pugs are easy to get and favor 24/7 means they should be easy to find) and get much better rewards.

Not a problem. And I am sorry if some of you have pmed me ig and I haven't responded right away. I am title grinding on a monk without survivor and I am always in the middle of something.

Last, if you have a hero setup that can do it in less time, please post it. 55 minutes is absurd for FoW, and I don't believe it unless there is some way you split the group up.

UW in 55 minutes in HM I do believe. FoW only takes over an hour because of how much you have to run around.

Wow, if HHing it is easier than PuGging it, then I must be your new Lord and Master for beating it with a PuG.

I'd try it but all my buddies are addicted to GW:EN dungeons, I dunno why - they have crappy drops for me.

I think the only one being an idiot here is yourself. Clearly. It's just funny that you don't like the so called cookie cutter builds, but you're running the biggest of all on your own skillbar...

Also, you make it look like quite an achievement, while all you are doing is pressing the same buttons over and over. Every brainless monkey can do that.

Hehe. No cookie cutters? Sabway = great cookie cutter. Ursan = mega cookie cutter. Should count as 2-3 CC's.

I'm still waiting for a true, non-ursan + 3x hero build to clear FoW. Doesn't have to be HM.
