Notes For the Whole Team

  • Keep up with the rest of team in 1 aggro bubble at the tail of the A/P tank, but do not run in front the tank, or you will aggro/pop wolves too quick and cause body block for the rest of the team.
  • Don't run with a staff, but use your shield melee weapon set. If you wield a staff, the Wolves will hex you with Shroud of Silence and you won't be able to use Ebon Escape.
  • Use "I Am Unstoppable!" VS Knocked-Down and the Crippling effect. Use it on recharge, especially at the start of the run.
  • Use Ebon Escape and Return to the Tank as much as possible to keep up. But you have to be smart about it, so both skills are not on recharge at moments you really need it. Some parts you must use it, to jump past a group Hopping Vampire or wolves that pop up, or make it in time past a gate that is about to close.
  • Use Echo or Arcane Echo to copy your Ebon Escape, especially at the fire dart bridge. Everyone must Ebon Escape or Return to make sure they don't get stuck at each pop. You won't see that you are stuck and will be too late to notice. So use your step skills no matter what (total 4x at the bridge)
  • Keep in mind that Ebon Escape also heals other people.
  • At the wardens room 8, the tank will ball up the Burning Brush and Brooding Thorns at the Guardian Serpent. When they are balled up the warriors kill them.
  • After the Guardian Serpent is killed, the door will open to room 9. The tank will go SOLO in to that room, to pull the wardens away. That way the team can get a safe passage. The rest of the team has to pay attention to not steal aggro from the tank. If you do so, it is most likely the end of the run.
  • In the meanwhile the tank is pulling the Wardens away, the team stay up that stair and enjoy the seed healing, which keeps the team alive very easy. If the team gets attacked by another group of the Burning Brush, Brooding Thorns, just kill them. Don't be an idiot and run in some sort rush/panic mode in to Wardens room 9, and steal aggro from the tank. Pay attention to your compass and don't steal aggro from the tank here!!

Tank

Assassin
I Am Unstoppable Shadow Form Shroud of Distress Dwarven Stability Dash Death's Charge Recall Viper's Defense
Shadow: 12+1+3, Crit: 2, Dagger: 10
OwlkMKd6HbiENpOzB0d5EEuTnTAD

Usage

  • Put in enough attribute points to meet the req on your slashing shield.
  • The purpose of the A/P Tank: To lead the team through Urgoz. Use vipers to jump up and down bridges and tank away the Wardens and the Wolves. With this tactics, the rest of the team can run pass, and only kill the foes that have to be killed to be abble to proseed the run.
  • At the fire dart bridge in room four, you have to be sure that the characters with echo in their build had time enough to cast it, so they get a copy of Ebon Escape in order to jump pass the popping wolves.
  • On the bridge, it can be better to not use Dash. So you stay in range for the people in the back who are a bit slower with clicking on Ebon Escape. You can make a tiny stop after you passed a group wolves that popped up (before you pop the next group wolves), to give people in the back slightly more time to click on Ebon Escape. Tough this will cause a failure when people start run in front of you, and pop up the next group wolves and most likely make you getting stuck between two groups of wolves.
  • Don't rush ahead when you see people in the back can't keep up. There are plenty spots you can make a short stop, to give people in the back time to keep up, or to get resurrected. The run will only be slower or even total fail when you keep rushing ahead.
  • Specially with the use of Dash it is possible to rush pass three gates, witch are open fifteen seconds, and closed ten seconds. You have to start running as soon the gate open up, or you won't make it pass the third gate. Make a pray that people keep up with you.

OwNkMKd4H/oENpOTnTuIuT8gADdJ

Usage

  • Don't run with a staff, but use your shield melee weapon set. If you run with a Staff the Wolves will hex you with Shroud of Silence and you won't be able to keep up with Ebon Escape.
  • Don't ever run in front of the tank
  • Put Life Bond on the Tank as soon as possible. So that the Seeder can Seed you, to provide a party wide healing as soon the tank or you/Bonder receive damage.
  • Use Death's Charge to jump fast to the Guardian Serpents, to put up Ebon Battle Standard of Honor. Than the 100b Warriors can Ebon Escape to you and spike in a Ebon Battle Standard of Honor ward
  • When you arrive at room 8 (the Wardens Area), you need to maintain your Shadow Form to prevent that your Life Bond or Seed of Life not get removed. Room 8, 9 and 10 are the main reason why you have Shadow Form in your build.
  • Stay in compass range with the tank, without stealing his aggro. So the tank not get Recall out wile he is tanking and or lose his Bond which provide strong Seed healing for the team.
  • At Urgoz, cast your Ebon Battle Standard of Honor ward at his feet. Help the warriors hitting Urgoz with your daggers . You can drop your enchants since Shadow Form has no effect at Urgoz. Urgoz removes it with Forest's Binding and so it can make you a priority target.

Variants

  • Shroud of Distress instead Recall in case when the tanking part goes horribly wrong you can shortly cover as tank
  • Bring Recall when you have a full team. This is to prevent popping 200 foes at Section 7 (Energy Degeneration) after the whole team cross that bridge. 1 person with Recall has to stay back to prevent this from happening.

Seeder

Blessed Aura Unyielding Aura Heal Party Essence Bond Seed of Life I Am Unstoppable Arcane Echo Ebon Escape
DF: 12+1+3, HP: 12+1+1
OwUSA5GTAEMEfE6D5g0kLB0l

Usage

  • Keep up Blessed Aura so your Seed of Life is extended.
  • Keep up Unyielding Aura so if someone dies on his way, you can fast resurrect/teleport this person to you.
  • Use Seed of Life on the Bonder to provide a Part-wide healing. If the tank or bonder not get any damage, you can pick any team member to use Seed of Life if it is needed to heal the person or the team.
  • Use Heal Party if the team needs healing and your Seed is still on Rercharge.
  • Use Essence Bond on the tank, so you don't get any energy isues wile spam Heal Party or Seed of Life
  • If there are 2 monks in the team, time your Seed of Life for the moments you don't see the blue numbers in your screen from the other monks Seed of Life.

Variants

Just do it with 1 monk! If you do have 2 monks, Might as well have the 2 monks bring some damage. However, Keep in mind, that this is 1 of hardest job. So both monks have to know what they are doing.

  • Bring Unnatural Signet instead Blessed Aura
  • Bring Overload instead Essence Bond
  • Bring Shatter Delusions instead Heal Party

Usage

  • Don't run with a staff, but use your shield melee weapon set. If you run with a Staff the Wolves will hex you with Shroud of Silence and you won't be able to keep up with Ebon Escape.
  • Don't ever run in front of the tank.
  • Kill the Burning Brush, Brooding Thorns that the tank has balled on the Guardian Serpent in room 8. In de meanwhile the tank pulls the wardens in room 9, kill the left over Burning Brush, Brooding Thorns. Or if the team has aggro from the other group, just kill them.
  • Use a Zealous Sword for energy gain at Urgoz. so you can keep up "I Am Unstoppable!".
  • At Urgoz, you have to ball up with the other warriors on Urgoz his feet. This is so the Explosive Growth pop up, al at the same point and can be killed with Mark of Pain and splinter weapon. If the warriors not ball up, it is possible the Explosive Growth are not in reach for enough damage to get killed. But they will hurt you, when they explode.

Variants

  • Bring To the Limit when there is no paragon in the team who brought Brace Yourself
  • One or two warriors can bring I Am the Strongest instead Whirlwind Attack to speed up the killing on solo targets like the Guardian Serpent.

OQeigymMRTyjtjBEWvNnJwQXC

Usage

  • Don't run with a staff, but use your shield melee weapon set. If you run with a Staff the Wolves will hex you with Shroud of Silence and you won't be able to keep up with Ebon Escape.
  • Don't ever run in front of the tank.
  • Specially in the blood drinker room (Section 10) Use Brace Yourself on the Warriors who brought Drunken Blow. This can really speed up the killing process.

Cur: 12+1+3, Blood: 12+1, Soul: 3+1
OAVDYDxHTKBlBTCWCGC5i0k0l

Usage

  • Don't run with a staff, but use your shield melee weapon set. If you run with a Staff the Wolves will hex you with Shroud of Silence and you won't be able to keep up with Ebon Escape.
  • Use Barbs And Dark Fury on the Guardian Serpents.
  • In room 10 (the Greater Blood Drinker/trapped room) use Ebon Battle Standard of Honor on the next pop-up Greater Blood Drinkers as soon the first group is killed. Try to line this up with the A/Mo bonder so there is always a Ebon Battle Standard of Honor ward for the warriors to spike in.
  • Use Mark of Pain on groups and Barbs on the "off damage" single targets. Use Dark Fury and Order of Pain whenever you can. However, be aware that This enchants can trickStrip Enchantment from the Greater Blood Drinker and hurt your team members.
  • Copy your Mark of Pain to kill the last guardian Serpent at the entrance to Urgoz. This way you help with killing the Burning Brush, Brooding Thorns and Uprooted Malice. This is helpful so the warriors not get killed at Urgoz cause of them.
  • On Urgoz the most important skill you use is Mark of Pain. If you don't use it, the Warriors will die because of the Explosive Growth. Which will explode within six seconds, after they spawned. So the combination Hundred Blades, Mark of Pain and Splinter Weapon must have killed them, before they explode. This way the Explosive Growth won't do any damage.
  • After Mark of Pain use Barbs, Dark Fury andOrder of Pain. Urgoz should die within fifteen seconds.

Together as One Jagged Strike Fox Fangs Death Blossom Death's Charge I Am Unstoppable Return Ebon Escape
Dagger: 12, Expertise: 12+3+1
OgcSc5OTj1OMMMHM4O0kCM0l

Usage

  • Don't run with a staff, but use your shield melee weapon set. If you run with a Staff the Wolves will hex you with Shroud of Silence and you won't be able to keep up with Ebon Escape.
  • Help the team to stay alive with Together as One, as well as let them do extra damage.
  • Kill the solo targets

Variants

  • Bring Viper's Defense instead Death's Charge
  • Bring Recall instead Death's Charge

Tip

  • Don't bother bring these ghost Winnowing or Edge of Extinction.
  • 1 = In Section 10 the Blooddrinkers just kill the Ghost
  • 2 = The cast time to put them down is horribly slow. Help spike solo targets instead
  • 3 = You simply won't have time enough to find the right spot at Urgoz, since the Ghost must be in range of Urgoz to harm him.
  • 4 = That bit extra damage it gives at Urgoz (when you succeeded to put it in time, on the right spot) is totally negligible. Warriors already kill Urgoz in 15 seconds
  • 5 = Edge of Extinction equally damage your own team members when some of them die.
  • 6 = Winning time in section 10, and faster killing the Guardian Serpent's, is just much better for the speed of the whole run, than wasting time in putting down these ghost's for that "possible" extra seconds faster kill at Urgoz
