I was trying to do duo UW runs with my ss necro and my dad playing his 55 monk. we were using this build basically, http://guildwars.gameamp.com/guide/viewGuides/740.php!orderBy=author
So far we can speed through the aaxtes and grasping darkness groups. We get to the smites and its a bit slower, but we get it. The coldfire drakes or whatever those things are, they give us problems. We havent got them yet, but we have only done a total of maybe 4 runs, so I suppose we will have to practice.
Not trying to hijack the thread, sorry...just suddenly started typing. Good job though on the smites, I'm wondering how many we could take

I don't farm and even I know farming smites is not a tough task. Sorry but I am fresh out of empty "congradulations" for things that have been done a million times.
When man walks on the moon for the first time it's big news, when man walks on the moon for the one millionth time, it's nothing to be proud of.

Try soloing the smites then. It ain't tough at all... Until you do it. (Caveat: It will cost you a few thousand.)
P.S. When YOUR daughter takes her first step, it's a really big deal.

Okay, to *anyone* who says smites is no challenge, I dare you to take even more than 14 with a Protective SPIRIT build and no DP. Anyone who's done it can tell you it's really harder than it looks.
Good luck with that, seriously. Oh, and don't forget screenshots. I took on 45 smites once, but I forgot to take a screenshot

I took on 45 smites once, but I forgot to take a screenshot If 14 is a challenge, then 45 by all reasoning should be beyond impossible. Based on the fact that spawning 45 smites would require that most of the groups are 5, if 11 attacked at once it would spike you for 55 killing you instantly so the gathering process (which would include dodging all of the coldfires I might add) would be increasingly difficult with every group that you had to clump together.
Until I hear some more thorough evidence of how this would be achieved, I'm calling BS on it.

I've never done it, so congradulations to you!

I hope you're not serious... Anyone who's tried this knows that for more than about 8 smites, you need bonettis or the smites will out damage your breeze/prot, even with the divine favor spikes. With this many smites there's more than enough SV to go around, and even with bonettis they all drain just fine.

Assuming you got all that done, you'd have to tank the hits of 16 smites + 2 colds at once, which is something I don't know anyone can do (using a prot spirit build, with no dp and no AOTL that is.)
I see two possibilities then, either a: you're lying, or b: a few of them aggro'd late, after some had already died. Prove me wrong, this is the screenshot exposition forum. Sno speaks the truth. Smites attack so fast the damage spike is insane, hence why I even posted this thread. You need totally perfect timing because if you mess up in your casting pattern would it be even just one second, you're dead. Racthoh that was sarcasm, I'm kinda surprised you out of everyone fall for that, hell I don't even know if there are even 45 smites in UW. Dark Tykane

Have any N/Mo or Mo/N tried that with Aura of Lich?
Aura of Lich may not help a lot to a 55 but lets my ranger solo 2 Titans.. So Aura of Lich + Protective Spirit=2 max loss of health per hit? hellknight17
What is the most coldfires any one has done before? My personal record for fun was 8. And this was with a Mo/Me. Of course with a 2 man team and alot of moving around. =)

I took a huge lot with Sno last day when we were questing. Didn't bother to count nor screenshot because screenshot lag would of got me killed. These guys spike hard =__= (cant use bonnetis)

Actually, the way it seems to work is 55hp, /2 = 27hp and prot spirit brings that to 2 damage per hit. Since AOTL makes all damage halved, you end up taking only 1 damage each hit. This allows 27 consecutive hits without dying, which would allow you to tank an enormous ammount of just about anything. The problem with this though, is you don't get spellbreaker. |
