UW 2 man question.
elementskater706
I need help with the 2 man UW farming. I cast mending, balthazars spirit, and protective spirit. Then spell breaker. They still get my enchantments off somehow. I don't know what it is. Shouldn't spell breaker block all the enchantment removers?
Tsunami Rain
this question should go in "55 monk questions." For future references.
Check these two things:
1. Is your SB wearing off too soon? (use Blessed Aura if so)
2. Is your Protective Spirit going down? (always keep up)
3. Are there two nightmares? (do you kill one and not notice the other?)

Oh I didn't know there was a section for 55 monks, sorry. But I watched what happend carefully and I still had SB on and somehow they stripped my PS enchantment.

Any spell cast on someone enchanted with Spell Breaker will fail, and that includes enchantment removing spells. At the moment, it sounds as though your Protective Spirit has ran out and you didn't recast it.

Not if you target yourself with, say, healing breeze.
Spells can also be cast on you by team mates. Sympathetic Visage comes to mind.
Just so you know ^_^

Oooh, ooh...thanks for pointing out. I forgot a word from what I wrote, it should have been...
Any enemy spell cast on someone enchanted with Spell Breaker will fail.
BAH! It's too early in the morning.

Sorry to say, but go practice Trolls, Minotaurs or something before you do UW. It'll help you. If you rush things too fast, you're not gonna learn much.

I have actually noticed a "bug" lately, if i try and tank about 10+ darknesses (for example in the chamber with the terrorwebs.) my enchantments are somehow removed prematurely, even without any nightmares about and no, my PS and breeze are not running out before you ask...

I gone solo UW a few times and have made it all the way through only once. 
Although on that full run I got 3 ectos 
Anyways, spell breaker fails sometimes, I've cast it, and the nightmares still, somehow, strip them all. I don't understand it, but it happens.

I did about 6 trys in a row by myself. I first cast mending, arcane echo, then SB, then cast PS. Then i aggro them. After about 3 seconds (none of my enchantments are under 16 seconds long) i die. I watched and only PS was gone, but I had casted it about 4 seconds beforehand. Maybe it was just a bad day, I dont know.
elementskater706
Oh yea I have been practicing trolls and griffons and such and I have them pretty wired. I just want to start getting "good" items.
elementskater706
I had just tried again and my PS just ended without warning. It didn't flash or anything. SB is still on when this happens. This is making me so mad. There is no reason this shouldn't work. I guess the odds are against me........

maybe having something try to steal/drain energy from u when ur at 0 works like having -regen from 5 or more enchantments, and the game thinks u can't pay the upkeep cost? (like if u have 5 or more maintained ench's and u reach 0 energy, u lose enchantments until u only have 4 left).
otherwise maybe u'r getting interrupted w/o noticing it (i guess it could be hard to hear w/ that many monsters wailing away on u) so ur enchantments aren't actually renewed when u think they are.
#1 has never existed in the past that i know of, and i'm guessing u'r too experienced for #2 to happen to u, so maybe it is just a bug

yea me too
when i know that i am about to die against like a group of trolls thats too big or something, my enchantments all disappear, then about a second later i die. its almost as if the game knows there is no way you can survive or something? might be different in your case, but thats what happens to me

This might sound a bit silly: Are you casting these spells on YOURSELF or your SS/SV Necro (by mistake)?
Question: what is your stat layout? (that might be the problem there)

8 healing
8 smiting
13 protection
15 divine favor
Skills in this order
1 blessed signet, 2 hex breaker, 3 spell breaker, 4 arcane echo, 5 healing breeze, 6 Protective spirit, 7 balthazars spirit, and 8 mending. (dont ask)
Heres the order i cast them. 8, 7, 1, 3, then 6. Immediatley after the casting of PS, I aggro. Now as I was attacking the sythe of chaos. They some are the ones somehow removing PS. As soon as it was gone i recast, and it was gone immediatley again, all the while having SB on.

I would suggest that you try out either cerb's or my UW build in our guides. Bringing Blessed Aura would be a GREAT help as it helps maintain your enchantments longer. As for this scythe of chaos...thats not in the UW is it? Do you mean dieing nightmares? Dieing nightmares strip your enchants. Watch cerb's underworld video if you have questions.
At the moment this is what I find wrong with your build:
1. your healing is VERY low for the UW
2. why 8 smiting?...no use.
3. why arcane echo? (you dont need spell breaker THAT much)
4. your spells run out fast dont they? use Blessed Aura.
Again, I highly suggest you read our guides.

The standard 55Hp Build will not work in ToPK due to the Chained Souls that Rends Enchantments and monsters that use Finger of Chaos.

I'll tell you exactly why your enchantments ran out:
You didn't notice the nightmare. Or, you forgot to recast PS.
I never thought nightmares could spawn in the smite crawler area...rather large shock for me when the rend hit me.

Lol, there's no type of bug that removes your enchantments. The only possibly solutions are either interrupts or skull crack. And both can be fixed through SV.

55ing in TopK ...wow.

That's not a bug, you just died... Lag causes your enchantments to drop when you die, before your hp actually goes to zero. If you were tanking that many, chances are you didn't have bonettis up and your hp went to zero. Either that or ps ran out and got interupted, or something.
There is no bug, sorry but that's just plain silly. It's happened to me too, if you're taking too much damage your hp will go to zero, your enchants will drop, and you will die, without it 'appearing' to you as if you died. This gives the illusion of enchant stripping, but it's not. Also, if you're refering to the chamber, you may have missed a nightmare, there can be up to 3, one with each grasping group, and they may aggro late, as they're on different patrols.

Umm... I've seen a bug sometimes. I was down there with my buddy who was 55'ing for my necro. We were over into the smites almost at the end of it, and there weren't any Dying's (we both keep an eye out) and the smites weren't over yet... and he had prot/breeze up, and then just randomly fell over right as the smites started hitting him. There were only 4 of them, and none of the Colds had aggro'd in either... so I have no clue why he died, but he just fell over. It was quite odd, and neither of us could figure out what happened... but at least I carry Sig so I got him back up and we finished up the run.

i think that's an issue of lag, and the game trying it's best to end ur ench's and make u die at the same time

lol i knew something was up when i heard "Scythe of Chaos" I just couldn't put my finger on it.
