Well actually, I have two questions...
Me & a friend have recently turned our attention to 600/Smite farming the UW, every run, I get at least 2 ectos, and he only seems to get one or sometimes none, [Tonight I got 5 and he got 1, on a 40 minute run]...is it because im the 600hp and doing alot more of the work?

My 2nd question is..When YOU 600/Smite the UW, do you just farm all of the Aatxe's & Smites then leave? Or do you try to pretty much clear every thing you can in the UW.

Thanks for your help,
Silent Whistle

Well.. when i do 600/smite the smiter get most of the stuff, but the drops are random. I don't really mind who gets the ectos when i'm 600/smiting since i always do 50/50.

You`ll find times one gets more ectos than the other and where to go - usually clear as much as you can which is usually upto bohemoths tho you can be lucky an get past them but can take a lot of time.

It's usually my partner that has not much time, but we try to clear everything. (Cept this one time we get fed up with the Coldfires (stationary patrols, weird aggro etc))

We plan on walking out to the Chaos Plains some day. (And get mashed up because of missed Spell Breakers etc )

my wife and i 600 smite UW, and can complete the first 4 quests (clear chamber, escort, unwanted, and ice king) pretty much every time we enter.

with a 600 hero smiter, i can get clear, escort, and unwanted completed.

With 2 person team, can get to chaos planes with alot of work and frustration. (for us anyway, good players might find it easier than we do...)

i've found that usually one person in the group gets the majority of the ectos. when wife and i go we split 50/50, but when i have hero smiter i vary between 0-5 per run. (usually get at least one, but last night didn't get any for the first time in forever... damn Ogden for not sharing anyway... ) worst run i've had in some time was last night, but they happen and i still made 3k off the run so i won't complain overly much.

the thing i'd really like to do is add an SS necro and make a 3 person team. i know that it can be done with 2 by adjusting builds right, but 3 person sounds more fun to me...
