Potential uw farming potential? 

here

This build if you added rending aura could potentially solo the uw and possibly take on the attaxes as well.

Thoughts? Anyone already doing this?

RE: Potential uw farming potential? 

Hmmmmm, looks interesting, Hard to say if it would be able to solo UW, but it does look very promising.

Maybe as long as you only bother with two or three cows, you MIGHT be able to kill them, now, as for the phantoms, I can't say.

Well this new w/me build basically only relies on physical resistance and warriors high armor. So I think blindness and it's innate ability to make monsters miss...a lot couples with armor of sanctity could easily handle them.

The cows were what I was more worried about here.
They do incredible amounts of damage to even my warrior. So if you get unlucky and his attack does get through...well that would blow. I was thinking you could go d/mo and bring prot spirit and just fight smaller groups because you don't have whirling attack.

To be honest I would have done this myself but I am really broke right now and can't afford trips to the uw.

Yea well I think a zealous scythe and a few points in mysticism could deal with that.

Well, need an ebon scythe snathe, but I would think 10 mysticism would be plenty, you just have to let your enchantments end lol

Ohh thats right...well I think you could also drop an attack skill and bring dust cloak.

Oh and for more damage mitigation you could bring conviction.

So many possibilities...

RE: Potential uw farming potential? 

conviction would be good, and Dust cloak would work if it were only 5 energy, keeping up 4 enchantments and spamming skills would be messy.

Ya that would be stressful I suppose. You could probably drop mystic regen tho. I mean there are other better skills you could replace it with plus victorious sweep will most likely give you more health than you need.

RE: Potential uw farming potential? 

Its a tough call =\

My ele took 280 damage when he got hit so im guessing 10 extra armor isnt gunna drop it below 200. Mystic reg is a good thing to have so keep that, 18 health a second isnt bad. I'm just wondering how well blind is gunna hold up =\ It only takes about 3 hits to kill you, so im guessing this build(if it works) isnt reliable. An unlucky run and both attacks fluke and hit you, bye bye 1k =\

RE: Potential uw farming potential? 

hmmm, it definately does look like it may be able to but idk about the graspings as the interupts may be a problem unless they were all blinded fast enough

for e-managment maybe add zealous renewal(or whatever it is) and bring a zealous scythe and swap to the zealous to use whirlwhind when u need energy

Maybe mirage cloak would make hits even less frequent to a point where you would hardly have to worry at all?

I think if you throw up the enchants before hand you should be ok if you take em in small groups. Or you could use this nifty little skill.

I like both fo those ideas.

I really think you could get the aataxes if you took em in small groups.

RE: Potential uw farming potential? 

So I've been running it in PvE, and, so far, only against frozen elementals, which is stupid of me, but i have radiant armor and a zealous scythe, and I still have trouble keeping all the enchants on me.

I do think, however, that dropping Armor of Sanctity for Conviction would be a lot better, since, at 10 earth prayers, it lasts long enough to keep it up, and you don't need to worry about getting interrupted. Also it lasts almost twice as long as AoS so recasting it doesn't suck energy.
