Introduction

These are casual tactics for 4/5man DoA runs.

Provided the tank is experienced, all other players can (perhaps suprisingly) be relatively inexperienced in the tactics, provided they have a good foundational knowledge of DoA (e.g. can play all Spiker and Backline roles). Having a single tank means that the s/he can speed up or slow the run down as needed, depending on the experience of the team and how the run is progressing.

Voice communication is (as always in DoA) strongly recommended no matter what level of experience the team has.

Dark Escape is generally taken over Death's Charge in 4man due the damage reduction when tanking 360, Clover and 3-3. Death's Charge is generally taken in 5man as the spikes are quicker, you have Healing Seed and it makes Clover pull easier and balls quicker.

Equipment

  • Sup Vigor, Blessed and Vitae
  • One-handed weapon of Enchanting and a Demon Shield
  • Staff of Enchanting
  • Flatbow of Enchanting

Role

Gloom

Cave

Recall the Emo at the start, HoS up the cliff. Once the front groups been triggered and killed you will glitch all of them and then cancel recall to end up where the fleshes spawn. Emo should give you a balth. Do not recast Recall on the Emo, as if you get rupted anywhere during cave its a resign so theres no point in trying to be safe and recovering.

For Cave you will aggro most of the mobs outside of cave and clear a path for the VORTK to be able to leave cave after triggering. The goal for cave is to kill the Fleshes, Sanities, Spirit + Sanity Group while the rest of the team does the 2 earth waves. While you are waiting for your groups to spawn that you have to kill you can walk around and kill rupts on you that are part of the initial cave spawn and also kill the longbow tormentors, as they will become off damage for the cave spike. Once the 9-12 groups are spawning you can start to pull where 4 group spawns and start making a ball. Either you can finish by pulling towards rift or you can make a freeball near the last cave spawn. Once everything has spawned, whirl the off damage a bit to where they will stay under 90 even if hearts heal them. Then try to hos/dc into the main ball and whirl them while the team spikes it.

Rift

After cave is done put up recall on the emo. He will then give you full bonds.

When you are at rift you want to stand on the caster spawn when quest is taken and wait for them to settle on you. Once all of them are settled you will pull the rest of rift and avoid triggering the Fleshes. When the team triggers the fleshes you will right wall block all of the melees near where the fleshes spawned. Once the team has capped rift they will run around your ball while you head to Deathbringer.

Deathbringer

Make sure you trigger them when they spawn and wait for all the NPCs to die. Get a fresh shadow form and walk in aggro to see if the Spirit runs out, if it does you will whirl the spirit and flesh and earth, then you will hos into the rest of the ball.

Darkness

Whirl the initial 2 Darkness and Greater Darkness on spawn. Once they die avoid whirling the 5 Darkness. You will want to pull them along the wall near where fleshes spawn towards rift. Once they are a one dot you whirl them. When they die try to stand ontop of where the darkness died so that you are able to hit all the earths spawned with whirl. If any of them aren't hit when the majority of earths die to eoe , then you can stand on the tormentors on you and whirl and have the spikers help finish them off. If the team doesn't get aggro then once the chest spawns pull away everything or whirl them to clear the chest.

In 4man, the TK is also the VoR due to skillbar compression across the team. However in 5man tactics, the additional Spiker can bring VoR, freeing up the TK to bring Echo Esurge.

Equipment

  • Sup Vigor, Radiant and Attunement
  • 40/40 Earth Magic set
  • +30/-2 High Energy set (shouldn't be needed with Glyph but useful just in case)
  • Any Flatbow/Longbow for pulling

In 4man, the EMo bar is optimised to keep players alive, particularly at Black Beast and 360. In 5man, a more casual bar can be used to add speed and the inclusion of Healing Seed on the MeMo makes Life Bond the sensible choice.

Equipment

  • Sup Vigor, Radiant and Attunement
  • Staff of Enchanting with useful mods
  • High Energy Staff of Enchanting
  • Any Flatbow/Longbow for pulling
  • Shield Set for Tanking
