Map Linked to larger picture

Purple Arrows are player path.
Blue dots are where I picked up loot or made a trip to the merchant.
Yellow dots are encounters (did it from memory, may have missed a few)

16,150 + (320 kills @ 20 Faction per kill) = 22,550.

NotesDredge Ranger will attack Smite Monk & Spell Breaker Monks if you Flag them to close
Build can also be used to Vanquish:Verdant Cascades – Asuran Points. Do not use VwK on Giants and they will not daze you. The Mirror of Lyss – Sunspear & Lightbringer + Jeweled Daggers, Ruby Daggers, and Ruby Mauls. (Ranger is optional) Ice Cliff Chasms – Norn Points (Quicker if you bring someone to kill the snowworms so you can by pass them) Build can also be used to Run Dungeons:Cathedral of Flames – [Vengeful Weapon][ Light of Deldrimor] (Ranger not needed) Oola's Lab – [Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support][ Dwarven Stability] Work on your drunk title. Ranger is helpful in killing Golem otherwise expect to spend 30 minutes on level one. Use Assassin Support to deal with Spirit of Disenchantment. Raven's Point – No change needed, watch the Destroyer of Deeds. Will edit in details as needed and make correction as you guys find my mistakes. If anyone has a better way I would like to hear it.

IGN: A Ni Adawe Hi Giga - PM if you need help or suggestion. If I have time will gladly take 4 other people with me.

Just a few ways to make it faster, QZ for 100% khanhei upkeep, and disrupting accuracy doesn't seem too necessary, savage shot would do

why bring 'I am unstoppable'? I would think that you do not want the extra armor.

A guild??? What is that?

IAU= Anti-Knockdowns from Dredge or any other creature......

I would prefer it since u wont get interrupted from knockdowns and die uselessly because your SB got interrupted... It helps.

you realize that dazed nullifies the effect of dshot right. same with disrupting accuracy.

Btw, Nice guide, my Main is a rit and love 600'ing. For when your doing Mirror of Lyss you can just run the tank, smiter and QZ/EoE/symbiosis ranger, do it around 40 mins.

p.s have you done full Ravens Point?

As Dread Slayer pointed out, "I am Unstoppable!" is to prevent knockdown. Fugal Wallow & Warden of the Tree cause Knockdown. The extra armor will not hurt.

Thanks for the feedback on the Ranger. I don't completely agree with QZ due to having to pull points out of Marksmanship and put it into Wilderness, but if I pull one point out of Beast and bring Marksmanship down to 11 it may work. I will try that suggestion and make changes as needed.

The only problem with Raven's Point is the Stormcloud Incubi on level 1. You can either bring other players to deal with them or henchmen to kill them. Mist Vaettir [Illusionary Weapon] is another problem. Again have the ranger come up to interrupt them. Level 3 is only a problem if you don't know where the Destroyers are going to popup. Clearing Level 1 and Level 2 is not really needed and I suggest casting spell breaker and running pass Chromatic Drake due to the time it takes to kill them.

besides do you even understand what i said? reading is one thing comprehending is another. if the enemy is dazed, disrupting accuracy is pointless since they will always get interrupted anyways. and if you have those 2 skills dshot is pointless because dazed and disrupting accuracy come before the effect of dshot.

Idea:

Run 2 of these in one team split up same faction and gold in 1/5 time
1/5 drops of course.

Turbo makes some valid points and Disrupting Accuracy and a few other interrupts actually waste energy on the ranger if you do not disable there skills since they will continue to attempt an interrupt when a dazed Wardern of Summer or Spring or Dredge Gardener is casting.

I use the other skills when facing Meril Stoneweaver since he is a boss and conditions expire faster.

1/5 drops of course. Yes this is a very good idea indeed. It is also worth noting that if doing this for faction, while still having a productive speed with 2 groups, it is VERY good to have someone with the quest "Song and Stone" which will push the kills in the area to its very highest.

Thank's for liking my idea, makes my day.

Is there a luxon area to vq? Currently I only know HH( or human group) mount Qinkai vq in 26-30 min 15k-16k.

If my dual idea works on here it would be even faster.

Sorry I can't answer this question.

Ensure that all opposing ranger are eliminated before moving ranger closer. This does not affect the time in anyway and actually may speed up killing groups that do not have a healer.

Sure it lets me keep up the good stuff like VwK and Spell Breaker but I found my energy pool drained too far than my liking mid-battle. Another difference I see from what I usually run on my 600/smite vanquishes is that you divided the role of the smiter into 2 heroes instead of one (who I usually give either [illusion of [email protected]] or [Heal [email protected]] to patch themselves up). You gave one of the smiters succor which is a plus but I'm still having a hard time seeing how you will manage energy with the tank casting under QZ. Care to explain?
