Slavers Exile Solo as a Sin
Sacratus Ignis
Hey all,
I Decided to spend a few minutes writing this one up as I've been messing around with it quite a bit and it's a very fun run. I'm also sick of all the other people who run it refusing to let people die to watch tactics etc. I do NOT take credit for this - although I've always loved Slavers and been doing team runs there since EoTN launch, there are many others who were soloing Slavers before I even bothered trying to figure it out. The builds I use though I did come to on my own with a lot of guesswork and a ton of attempts. I am not going to list every detail here... but give bar and basic tactics. All bosses require an essence for the builds given. For the a/me bar, conjure nightmare is optional. If you'd rather, you can use another pve skill or something else from the domination line.
Enjoy,
Sacratus

Most of the people "running this" do it as a VSF. Much faster than anything else I can come up with. What I've been doing is bringing aoe damage heroes and then doing it as a VSF (in NM with an essence it's pathetically easy. You can run any standard perma bar. You don't need iau for NM. So I have been using the same bar I use to solo Rand to save on the essence.
Rand Stormweaver (approx 5mins) - Bar: OwVVESROGf8ZiHRnhF0GcrRDwEwlBA
Run straight to Rand at the end of the dungeon. Make sure shadow form will not need a new recast right when you aggro. To aggro the group, cast empathy or ether nightmare on the distractor. Watch for it to use choking gas, and use cry of pain to interrupt that. Keep the dwarves balled up and degen them to death with ether nightmare + CoP, using CoP to interrupt choking gas every time the distractor casts. Channeling + shadow refuge spam for energy. Empathy and conjure to boost damage on the important targets - I typically cast on the monks, summoners, and distractors. The dwarves will degen out, if you are good all at the same time. If not they'll res up but just bear with it and they will all die except Rand.
Once Rand is alone, aggro a group of the wolves on the hill. Have them ball on you, keep rand at a distance. Use all your degen skills and empathy on recharge, which will kill him quickly even when he has troll unguent up.
Selvetarm - (approx 10mins) same bar as Rand.
Run right to the key, grab it and then run to where the door to Selvetarm's room is closed. Walk right into the crypt wraiths etc there, degen them out using channeling for energy. After you've killed the few groups that pop there, some crypt slashers pop. As they degen out, run back down the hill. The touchers will pop then. Get them just inside your bubble, walk back slowly so they ball while wanding you. Degen them out with ether and cop. When they die, one last guy spawns, killing it opens the door.
Run right onto Selv and start using degen skills. I focus my empathy on the summoner as death nova really can hurt. Degen the group out pretty easily - spam shadow refuge to keep alive through any death novas (I like to back up as they are about to die, or spike the summoner first). You can aggro side groups of wraiths etc to feed channeling while you finish off selv with empathy and degen.
Forgewight - (approx 10mins) Same bar as Rand
Run directly to where the Dark Watcher pops. Aggro the forge imps, pull them back into a ball for channeling. Kill one of them (degen and empathy), then walk into the center of the room to aggro the watcher. Pull him back, kill, grab the key. Then run to where forgewight is, stopping to get the shrine on the way.
Forge's room has two distinct groups. Grab the one he is NOT in first. Be careful of flame djinns - it is hard to tank more than 3 at once. Kill that group with degens, empathying the important targets. Then aggro Forge's group with a hex on the distractor. CoP his choking gasses as always, degen out the entire group. I suggest empathy on forge as he has by far the most hp. otherwise you get stuck with just forge left and energy becomes tricky (zealous dags help)
Duncan - (approx 5mins) Bar: OwZTkY/8ZiHRnBZ4rKXkHaCC3BA
I've posted this elsewhere... but just for completeness...
Run straight to Duncan's room, using dash and dcharge to keep the touchers at range so they can't kill you. When you get to Duncan, aggro the 6 touchers on the platform with him, run away from Duncan so that they all run towards you. Walk around, dcharge onto Duncan. If done right, all the touchers will be wanding instead of trying to use the touch skills. Then glyph of lesser, EBSoH --> stoneflesh --> sliver. Do that like 3-4 times and he dies.

Hi thanks for the guide, I'm gonna give them a go. Is there any chance of making some videos? that would be superb. anyway thanks very much for the info.

Thanks so much for this. It'll keep me busy for a little while.
What extra cons do I need for HM Duncan? From my last attempt, Essence + Cupcake + Dash didn't break the touchers but I made it because of the touch skill bug that has since been fixed. On second thoughts, maybe I used Red Rock Candy instead of Dash. :/

Not so sure about rand, there is a group of modnir nearby sometimes and the monk comes up to heal rand's group, and knock you down. Any idea how to stop this?
Evasion Twenty
Appreciated much?
hope this ends those How the hell can you run Slaver's threads....
