i'm *pretty* sure they can still solo UW... but now that traps make mobs flee... it won't be very effective

Technically anyone can solo the UW, just pay your plat and you're in.

But, can you "survive" soloing the UW well that is a different question.

I don't know you would have really good traps to solo it. And even if you did it'll take forever and the fact that traps make mobs flee is kinda silly.

I think what they did to traps was abit harsh. I loved trapping in UW with my Battery/Trapper.

The onset of the 55 ranger?

It could be done, i'm sure, but it would be much more cost (and time) effective to use a trapping party of 3-4 rangers.

If you steped on a spike trap and the guy that layed them is right in front of you and smaller yet not running...would you keep going forward?

the dumber mobs should keep going...how dumb are ataxes?

no no no no people.. a full ranger no need for second profession can kill 3 axxes NO PROBLEM... full ranger ...if you read the oldddd UW SOLO TRAP build i wrote its floating some where... now with the new AI update it takes about 5 mins per 3 axxes.. only addition is changed throw dirt with apply posion and ta da you can solo trap UW... hella easy.

and Spike Trap is not in the Uw Solo Trap build... i would trap it more but im more intrigued with pet/barrage way in the new PVE TOMBS.
