yeah, the scuttle fish stayed in place around the corner for me both times so I may have just gotten lucky, no heals and I can outheal balths. I'll try a few more times tonight and see how I do but I did die once.

I run by the initial group of Leviathan Mouths and their Scuttlefish. Then I run through the spawn of Onis and hit Zojun's to break aggro. Then I go down to Hazeclaw's mob. There is another patrolling group of Leviathan Mouths and Scuttlefish, but they never patrol close enough to the shrine ot aggro.

I never went as far as onis, that sounds like easier than fighting through the mouths/scuttlefish. I'll play with this.

Beautiful video Miss, too bad nothing dropped that run.

from what I understand if you gank a patrol right outside bzzyr's cave, he'll come out to heal them. I havent tested or gone after him myself.

If anyone needs help pulling Byzzr Wingmender, you can contact me ingame or if a lot of people really need it, i'll make a video.

Edit: Confirm Chkkr Ironclaw as medium. Did 2 runs and got an axe on the second. its realtivly easy to eliminate Ironclaw's group while not worrying about if the boss himself is going to stay alive since he has Heal Sig and keeps himself up.

Bizzr Ironshell is the name of the ele boss, I count it in as hard, as you can't do it with more than 15% dp (30% = too much) for he deals over 200 dmg with his teinais crystals...
Have only tried him 5 times though... hes a bit like zarnas stonewrath but he doesnt heal himself as quickly.

Add rahse windcatcher as VERY VERY easy (hes outside durheim archives, just lure his group to the shrine, the group will kill the shrine, you pick out the comrades of rahse windcatcher in the meantime, u end up with him alone)

Add xisni dreamhaunter at medium (you probably die a few times, but u can kill him at 60% dp by first getting him down to like 1/4 of his life, then running back to him like hell and finishing him off)

But for killing Strongroot, do I need to go round the long way, or pull the SR crew into the afflicted while standing in between them (resulting in certain death and 15% dp).

U can use the SR crew to help you kill the afflicted either before or after u kill the rit construct.

Then you can lure the strongroot group as far as u can to the res shrine (even if theres no one there) and start killing off the kirins, you might die but thats not a huge issue, when u revive, run to the group and kill another kirin. Then you should kill the casters. After that the mosses. Strongroot is an easy kill even with 60% dp, you can just die when hes near dead and run to him to kill him off.

The crucial thing about killing the rit construct is that you need to pull him out of his spirits. Of his spirits, one is a delayed heal at 30 secs after casting, the other gives him regen, so if he has them both up, the killing is slow.

EDIT: Good target miss. Adding Rahse.

Bzzyr Wingmender (Brother Redmund) Edit: Since this is hotlinked i guess i'd best add bits.

He's easy. Kill the patrol near him and pull him just far enough from his 'hidden' allies so they don't popup. I killed it, got his green and went back to the portal in time to collect the reward for an FF run.

Chkkr Locust Lord - Hard. Had to clear alot of patrols first (died a few times on the double Dreamweaver groups, had to use a CC). The boss himself requires lucky recharges on OoB or he begins to heal himself too quickly. I had to flee at the end of the fight, keep attacking him to slow down his regen (he was beginning to hurt) and come back to finish him off. - Ignore this, better guide somewhere else for a <5 minute run

Chkkr Brightclaw - Hard. Had to clear out everything that it spawns with first, lure them out 1 by 1 (they always seem to come at you alone and none are difficult). Wait till the boss is far back, lure it away from the Recuperation is casts otherwise theres no way in hell you can outheal Spirit Light and Spirit Light Weapon. Near the end of the fight it casts it again, use dodge and run off, with a bit of luck he ignores you and walks backwards out of range of its spirit again, run back in and finish it off. - Ignore this too, better guide elsewhere for taking <5 minutes.

Whispering Ritual Lord - Beyond Easy, although yet to drop because he's stingy. The run itself is none too hard. - My favourite boss, sold 6 staffs for an average of 43k.

Miella Lightwing - Hard. Only works if theres 1 Rockhide Dragon in the patrol, 2 and the Gales are just too many to handle. Lure back towards the Luxon Priest. Keep the Saltspray Dragons out of casting range to avoid Ride the Lightning and pick off the Rockhide Dragon, keep Dodge + Zojuns up whenever possible, the boss hits hard. Then kill the Saltsprays 1 at a time, the boss takes a while to whittle down its health. Luckily nothing it does beyond Divine Favour benefits it in anyway.

Evilsod, nice adds, as for chkkr locust lord, you can pull him out with a bow when hes alone on the small island, then nothing else will come. If you switch back and forth between the +15 -1 energy set and the usual set, you should be able to kill him without luckying the faster Oob recharge.

He never seemed to follow me far enough. I haven't gotten round to finding a +15/-1 energy set yet though sadly. I hope they require Black Pearls though, the Whispering Rit Lord is giving me plenty.

offhand +15 energy:

blood drinker pelts

I'm not aware of a factions collector for the +15 nrg wand so that would need to be crafted:

or you can get the non max collector one from maguuma:

Anyone know what the drop rate is like for the Ritual Lords staff? He just won't give me it!

Switch out Whirling Defences for Signet of Agony. 25 seconds of bleeding really does drag his health down, whereas Whirling just makes him run off.

Hmm, just an odd point and question.

Been farming the rit lord for a while now (FINALLY got a staff to show for it). Then the last few runs everytime i pull it i end up with a group after me too thats patrolling very closely to it...

Now i can guess i'll have probably activated the anti-farm code by now. But doesn't that just affect drops not spawns?

It may be that Rt bosses are more stingy than others, ive killed both whispering lord and delic dozens of times (never more than 2 or 3 a day), and only 1 green between them so far.

Chkkr Thousand Tail - Easy. Distracting Shot anyone?

Razortongue Frothspit - Medium. Have to lure his group round the corner first. Kill off the Carps/Fish, you can normally live without bothering to kill the rits, they're spirits never seem to be placed properly anyway. That or you can run out kill 1 and run back round the corner to heal. Don't bring them in range of the Luxon Priest. The **** heals the enemies more than he does you.

The patrol problem, have you checked for added quests? or completed quests perhaps?

as for Chkkr locust lord, I have found plague touch + the signet that makes u bleed work very well on him, just don't take any running skill (u won't need em anyways) lure him out with a longbow and just touch him to death, I did it without ever needing to change to my +15 energy set..

Nah he's back to normal again now. Must've been a bit random. Same thing happened while farming Razortongue, some trips his group wouldn't pull so i had to restart, some the group to the side patrolled far in.

edit: Why didn't i think of Distracting Shot for him.... took me 6 attempts to finally kill him off.

This guy is actually fairly easy. Ive tried this method a number of times and it seems to work each time. Go up the stairs and shoot at him with your bow from there, he will cast recuperation. Get him in your agro bubble and run back down the stairs, making sure he follows you.

At this point its important that you watch for his recuperation spirit to drop, and be ready to distract the next one. Start touching him with bow in hand. For some reason, although he has recup, spirit light and spirit light weapon, if you distract his recuperation he seems to stop using the other 2. I switch back to Gordac's set and he is a very easy kill from there. I only ever go into his area if there is a chest to get after killing him, but you should be able to get him without getting his buddies to drop in on you

Spirit Light - Heals a large amount, sacrifice 10% health if a spirit is not in the area

Thats why

Maybe making a seperate rating for the bosses (and his group if needed) and the time to farm would be good. When I see the 'hard' it doesn't seem like a time rating. Would be helpful to know what build to use on what boss.

Great info, gunna go try some bosses

generally, throw dirt ;lightning reflexes ;whirling defense; Offering of blood; vampiric touch; vampiric bite; dodge; distracting shot can take down most of the bosses if you play it right. After killing the boss once or twice you will find distr shot unneeded or another skill unneeded and you can fit in skills as you like.

I tried Whispering Ritual Lord this morning and there were no less than 5 patrols of scuttlefish/carp that seemed to intermingle with him. I could get him alone for very short periods of time, but eventually I'd have to break off the attack because the patrols would close in.

I had a few quests active that I'm going to abandon to see if it makes a difference.

I had a few quests active that I'm going to abandon to see if it makes a difference. Thats because it depends where you farm him. Believe me i went to cap his elite on my Ranger and got myself into that corner. And just like you said, no less than 5 patrols come down on your in no time, its just a massacre when that happens (i stupidly did this 3 more times).

So while farming his staff i tried to see if i could find a spot where he can be pulled alone. The answer, the bridge on the other side. On the other side of the Oni, just wait a bit and there should be a gap in the patrols between the Fish and the Turtles, just run across, up the steps (ignore the Saltsprays that patrol in front of it, or kill them while you wait, your choice ). After a couple of minutes he floats all the way round and ends up down the side of the bridge, lure him with a flat/longbow and just keep making him follow you back to avoid the patrols at the side, don't go much further than the back of the bridge of Oni spawn. He's a pushover, Whirling Defences is a definate no-no as he runs off, but most of the time its AI is too crap to use Ritual Lord properly so you don't even have spirits to contend with.
Thinking about it it might be easier to start from Unwaking. If i could get past these frigging code13s i'd find out.
