Yeah, it makes things more of a grind that you can't just smoke PHs in crypt with a group until you pop one and then pull it solo and smoke it in a safe spot by itself, but it definitely adds to the "solo" and "artist" and "challenge" parts of this also. A lot. Buttt, that being said, I can't help but feel like it's not really cheating to have help sometimes. Plowing through a dozen level 50 trash mobs in hole with a cleric healing my pet and then IVUing the rest of the way to dartain didn't really make that specific encounter any easier than it would have been truly solo... it just sped up the boring and generally simplistic part of the kill, like getting a double invis or having a rogue pick a lock instead of clearing/lulling/whatever. | |||

As a wizard, it's not that interesting or challenging to root a mob and nuke him to death. The most interesting part is getting there by yourself, pulling that named and managing the adds.

I have to say Nirgon your sig with Colgate's name in red and Nihilum in blue is pretty funny.
Also Tecmos if you remember I had a very obnoxious time getting down to Dartain in the hole. I tried to be fancy and DA jump and had some ugly encounters with Yael and his L54 (!!) rock golem minions. Finally welcome Sahazar! You don't need much gear to do this really; Tecmos did most of his before he got the pixels.

Most of these deaths occured while trying to reach disco (or trying to CR myself). It's a bit ridiculous, I know. Sometimes I would lose patience and just eat 4 deaths in a row, trying to CR myself without any gear... The recent changes in the amount of see invis mobs in Sebilis really hurt the solo wizard [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Anyway. When I could make it alive around the ostiary spawn point, I would try different methods to get the kill. At first I wanted to fight him (or his PH) in the hallway. But the three roamers were too much to handle most of the time. I needed a place to pull the ostiary and his friend to a place the roamers wouldn't aggro me. The closest room to allow this is frenzied pox scarab's room. A room I've been able to clear to solo the scarab. So this is what I would do : kill the scarab to be able to move around in that room. It would give me enough space to move around, nuke freely and refresh root (I wouldn't need to kill the 2 remaining frogs, as they would be behind that wall, in the other part of that room). Here's an example of handling two melees there : http://i.imgur.com/oHpzFgD.jpg Once I was ok with how I would do it, I gave it a try. I failed a couple times to a bok shaman or an unlucky root break. Once I had the room ready, a melee frog next to the ostiary. Perfect setup. I was this close to engage but an enchanter beat me to it and engaged first. And finally, tonight, after camping there yesterday night, I logged on to another perfect setup : a light blue PH and another melee next to him. So I disintegrated the PH, then proceed to kill the scarab inside the room and finally killed that melee frogs next to the ostiary spawn point. I did this cycle another time and then the Ostiary popped. It was now an easy single pull and an even easier kill. After all, he's just a level 50 warrior. After pulling him inside the room with sunstrike : http://i.imgur.com/zh0HjP0.jpg Nuking in process, no root break : http://i.imgur.com/SVyCF2F.jpg Final nuke : http://i.imgur.com/6z35KP9.jpg And loot : http://i.imgur.com/jURTvt8.jpg This encounter was definitely the most difficult sofar.

[ ] Ixiblat Fer [61 Warrior, Burning Woods]
This as a Duo is very, very possible. Show me an enc/cleric who can do it without strings or bp! Just tried to duo him with sunra (string charm w/ druid haste, tash stick+HS north poison thing and bp heals). got him to about 80% and 70%. Charm broke and it was a massacre both times. Tried everything I could think of to ditch agro, but it was no use. As long as charm lasts the whole fight you are fine. I was healing and dotting so it was just a luck game. Planned to burn and back off pet during enrage. Rumor has it this might have been done with shaman slow and a number of pets lined up to chain charm. That might work since you might be able to lose agro. All in all it was a ton of fun, and it sucks knowing that I could have done it if charm just lasted for 10 minutes, but I know that is also unlikely for a level 50 mob who is only tash-sticked for -MR. Maybe some cha gear would have helped? Don't think I'll try again any time soon. | ||
