I ended up sticking with Glowing Gaze, and simply use Birthday Cupcakes when I run up the hill. The only thing about this method is when you group the riders you have to be careful not to break aggro.
1 cupcake a run > killed by charged
If you can handle your energy (I am most comfortable with Glowing Gaze), Flame Djinn's looked good in the vid.

If you are running Glowing Gaze I don't see how you can really be hard on energy. I have it max at times.
(I maintain Fire attune on recharge) Just start with the SF combo > fridgid armor (use this on recharge basically) > gole (use this on recharge and only with 2x Burning speed imo) > burning speed (use this when it goes down, make sure you have fridgid armor) > Glowing Gaze (use this as soon as burning speed drops, or after you renew burning speed after it drops. use this on recharge as much as possible)
It is easy once you get in the rhythm. I haven't done many runs, because I recently came back from a 3 mo break, so I am not as experienced as others, but its my 2 cents.
I use an enchanting weapon and fire effigy from factions (meh, dont have a 20/20 offhand) and it works just fine.

Elite Bushido
its because he has 71 energy meaning that he is using a offhand that takes away 1 energy regen. THAT'S his problem right there

i'd say that unless you are using lava font, a 20/20 isn't going to contribute much since burning speed has no recharge and is practically instant cast and attune is almost always up.
Mines currently empty (just +12), but when all is said and done it'll will likely end up with +HP while enchanted and a -cripple duration setup for running through traps, maybe a 10HCT for frigid armor since it has the potential for one extra burning speed before a recast of SF
Ofc a 20/20 will be optimal for more then just this, and since I'm doing fast runs with a blank offhand it may not even be worth it to make a specific offhand for this

This might be a bad question but where is the damage? I can't look at the videos right now I'm in a library...but can someone explain? Looks like you'll survive pretty easy w/ this build but the aoe dmg...?

the burning from burning speed because of the -50% damage nerf to SF its probably the most efficient way to kill things

I was unable to clear the chamber in about 6 runs.
Most of the graspings would agro on me, but a few would hang back. I would burn the ones one me but when they were hurt, they would retreat and the others would move in.
It was a ridiculous cycle - I never ran out of energy, I kept them burning quite a bit but their tag-team behavior kept me from killing them.
I probably need to watch the videos :P

I tried it twice but both times the behemoths are blocking the path. How do i get past them?
or is this just a bad spawn?

or is this just a bad spawn? Bad spawn, not much you can do about it. But, If you use Cupcakes for running, you can take [Deaths Charge]. Deaths Charge might give you a chance of getting by them blocked ways, but not always. I haven't used it enough to really test it out completely, but it should help when you need it most. R.Shayne

I have to agree with ReZDoGG here, when farming ecto I don't think HM or NM makes that much a difference.
Elite Bushido
^^it doesnt make ANY difference

You could probably kill the Behemoths. Put on Flame Djinn's and lure out the traps, then put on a melee weapon and go into melee range so they stop using Healing Spring.

Why not. you can just pull them away from where the mindflayers spawns and they also drop ectos.

ditch frigid armor and fire attunement, energy is not a problem. take lava font and deaths charge. use burning speed - lava font - wait 3 seconds - burning speed - lava font wait 3 seconds - burning speed - wait for SF to recharge or go for another burning speed. When health gets low death charge to a foe with higher health for heal. Use glyph of lesser any chance u get, usually before burning speed and lava font. Only use lava font against enemies with more than 50% health or they will run, get them back into the fight by wanding them.
