I just wondering if it was even possible to do this run solo anymore. If it is soloable, can anyone give me some how-to on how to do this run.

Heres the skills I plan on Bringing:
Charge
Sprint
Balanced Stance
Shields Up
Endure Pain
Healing Signet
Holy Veil
Remove Hex


Problem is, I'm not sure on how to set up my Attribute points. I haven't a clue on how to do the run either

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Not only is the skills important, but knowing where to rest, when to go, to know which patrol comes from where and when. I haven't done a droknar run since the last update, but I've heard it's harder than before. I just feel that endure pain wouldn't be as useful as something else. Maybe healing breeze? Healing Hands? Shields up?

Shields up? if you take Healing Hands then you cant use Charge! and he's already using Shields Up... lol

Alright, now I have another question. How exactly do I deal with the Cripple and Bleeding conditions? I can deal with the hexes just fine now, but these conditions are killer.

Purge conditions. Wipes them all out at a cheap energy cost. Long recharge, so you gotta time it right so another condition doesn't get slapped on you while you're waiting.

I started practicing Droknar runs for the first time two days ago. I've completed 5/6 runs successfully (lone failure due to work schedule). It's very do-able, but some of the spawns are definitely more challenging than others.

I don't even see that it's possible seeing as things like Deep freeze and mind freeze make you 90% slower now. I just don't see it happening.

me and a guild m8, run it together for fun, half the money.

But we enjoy doing it, so we do it if we ever get bored.

Its very do-able.

I'm starting to get the hang of it. I got to Snake's Dance today. I died there, but it's the furthest I've gotten so far

Actually, instead of doing Drok runs, I've been running to the three mission areas in the Desert for tips. I'm suprised at the number of people that'll tip me 1k for a run to Elona or something

Charge {E}
Sprint
Balanced Stance
Endure Pain
Holy Veil
Smite Hex
Purge Conditions
Mending

This build works perfectly. I can go through a HUGE spawn of Ice Golems towards the end of Lornars without any trouble whatsoever. You might have to stop and rest because of energy, but whats a few minutes here and there?
