Soloing UW in HM as A/Me (Image Heavy)

Hello all,

I´ve been trying this build for a couple of times now, and I started in NM to see how it works. But I havent been able to bring down the aaxtes at all.

I have tried to different version like ppl suggested, but think Im doing something wrong, Im r1 kurzick-7 sunspear.

I use:

Deadly paradox, echo, SF, spf, ether, cry, dark escape and fn Dont get them down, so I switch FN for clumsiness for extra dmg, also this didnt work even if I raised the illusion to 9.
I have tried also channeling instead of SOP this didnt help me in e-management.

I use the SF chain then SoF, EN and CRY and spamm CRY as much and SOF as all time hex. Would like some advice on how to bring then down. I cn keep up the sf chain but sometimes e-management messes up but thats allright. Do I need some other HEX spells?

Help or suggesting would be nice.

Btw sorry for me bad english, not me 1st language!

GR Portia I tried this build out for the first time last night and killed a few aatxe along the way. I could generally trap mobs by positioning them at about a 10 o'clock angle with the wall to my toon's right side. Mobs will usually flee from left to right on your screen, but if you have that path blocked via wall, then they get stuck.

Make sure that you attack the target that you cast Spirit of Failure on -- this keeps that target attacking you, thereby generating more energy.

Timing on Arcane Echo + SF is easy -- just recast the echo'd SF when the recharging SF's timer passes 3-o'clock.

I've tested SF-Sliver and SF-blossom, but this one seems to be faster and more reliable.

EDIT: Props to the OP on an excellent build

I still don't see an up to date template code. This thread is months old and it wouldn't hurt for someone to let us know what is needed. I have tried the original build to no avail. Yes, I can kill things in the very first room, but it takes about 5+ minutes to kill anything. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong Here's the template code:

I have no problems clearing the first room, but once you get to Chaos Plains, Mindblade spectres using hexbreaker cause some issues.

Thank you Shar.

Any specifics on armor you use? I use the following runes on this build:
-major or superior vigor for extra hit points
-minor deadly runes (optional)
-superior shadow (required for total 16 shadow)
-rune of restoration (cuts down cripple + bleed duration)
-radiant insignias all over for +5 energy

Optimal weapon is any staff (preferably inspiration based) with 10% FCR and 20% enchant extension.

I'm still wondering how viable this build still is due to mindblades packing hexbreaker. Hexbreaker nullifies this build's kill speed and can be fatal with a large group ether nightmare cast (you'll take 51 damage per target using hexbreaker).

I need to practice more with it. I'm not having any luck with it. I've shelved this build for now and am tackling Chaos Plains normal with Shadow Form + Death Blossom. Mindblade Hexbreakers makes this build's performance too inconsistent to be profitable.
