Does anybody have pics of the sweet spots in hard mode for a perma sin. In normal I can hold aggro wherever I want by just keeping my health low but in hard mode they break. I need to know for first floor/chamber area and plains/pits. Thanks in advance.

I use the build

Glypth of Swiftness
Deadly Paradox
Shadow Form
Glypth of Lesser Energy
Fire Attunement
Mark of Rodgort
Lava Font
Flame Djinn's Haste

So it has to work with aoe damage, I already know it can be done by using slow none aoe targeting builds.

i'm pretty sure as long as you put a wall or obstacle on their left side, they won't break aggro.

I'm not sure what is the moving 1-5 steps is, but the blocking them to the left side works for me. For the chamber, you can aggro the whole room without setting your foot up the stair. Get them all close to the wall near the guy you took the quest from, and they shouldn't be able to run away. Be careful not to get body blocked while setting up. For the Plain, do the same thing, just pick the nearest edge near you, and make sure their left side is next to it.

i use the same build but dash instead of flames djinn...and no need to do this on hard mode because the drop rate of ectos doesnt increase...and yes your health needs to be below 100 :P

your hp can be maxed, and still hold aggro. just group them all up, and make sure theres a wall to your right, but that same wall is to their left. since AI breaks aggro always to the left, they will all stay there
works in both nm and hm
