I was bored pretty much tonight, decided to try some uw solo runs. I was doing it for fun, not farming. To be honest the "run" was so painfully slow, that we shouldn't call it farming.
My build is a "bit" different from the full trap build.
Skills:
Favorable winds - extra damage + works well with trapping
Troll - selfheal
Strom Chaser - run
Flame Trap - damage
Dust trap - damage
Apply Poison - degen
Hunter's Shot - degen
Barrage - damage
Attribs:
Exp: 11
Ws : 12
Mms: 14
Start on the left side, lure the 3 aataxes. There are two spirits standing there, you can hide between the spirits. The aataxes wont attack you if u hide carefully, just stand there. -> use barrage
Ok now comes the slow part, the other stationary aataxes won't follow you to the spirits, that's why i loaded hunter's + poison. Lure, degen, run away. Repeat.
Taking the 5k xp quest(you should have cleared the labirinth from the aataxes by now).
Unfortunately you can't degen Grasping Darknesses, that's why we have two traps. I found this part crucial, because you will hardly run away from these, and the "hiding behind spirit" technique doesn't work either. I just dropped fav wind and trapped it as much as i can. Then lure, hide behind spirit, and barrage the Darknesses.
You can clear the first quest area with the technique above.(careful luring is a must near the reaper)
Terrorwebs: The degen - run away technique works on them(u can try dropping some traps if you want), but it's pretty hard and slow.
I wanted to go for some smiters, but unfortunately made a mistake and got flattened by an aataxe.
Drops: One ecto dropped from a terrorweb + one key from a grasping. And of course loads of crap.
Duration: ca 2 hours.

Good job on soloing it with a ranger. Certainly it was slow, but tis not about the money, tis about the fun of doing it solo with a ranger.

I think it will be more popular once trappers focus comes out.

Grr you had my hopes up on finding another solo UW build... Not that it isn't but thats way to long for my liking.
Good job just not for me. I also like how you came up with a way around using 55hp.

Also, I'm pretty sure that the ghost trick has been fixed, or I had recently read about folk complaining on doing it wrong.
