Useful Movement Macros

• (7535, -11960) ranger lord glitch spot (on the side of necro trench)

• (13098, -9817) monk lord trench glitch spot ( on left 360 hill)

• (9906, -13057) mes trench glitch spot (on right 360 hill)

  (-19019, 13188) 4th room 1st move macro, this is right outside the trigger point for the 4th room
  (-19491, 12803) 4th room 2nd move macro, this is on the right wall if you were to face 5th room.
  Using these two move macros right after the other will allow you to get a significant amount of souls into 4th room

General Usage

The red circles on the picture are where souls spawwn, or where they break. The red lines are to show where the soul will go after it breaks aggro. Depending on where the soul was spawned, determines which direction it will run towards when broken.

this is probably slightly incorrect, i will have to look over it later

Gloom

Gloom is fairly straight-forward. You do cave while duping souls, finish + run quests. You have the option of duping the souls at rift if wanted. If you want to be safe you kill all Sanities/Spirits that spawn from rift. Deathbringer you spike once NPC's are dead (can wait a few seconds for the adrenaline from the sanity to dissapear), and Darkness you right wall block on the Earths.

Foundry

The Foundry rooms are just run and spike. You need to move in continuous, smooth lines to not break souls when going thru gates. Going thru room 2 and the room 4 gate is where your movement matters the most, as souls break here. Watch the video to see how to run into the rooms.

Room 1

Wait for Margonites to ball, run in Whirl. Spike Titans on spawn

Room 2

Try to speed boost ball the Margonites together and whirl them with the Torturewebs. For the 2nd wave kill the Torturewebs if they are balled, otherwise right wall block the dreamies and whirl those first.

Room 3

Grab all the Titans and the Torturewebs and right wall block to whirl the titans and the glitched Dreamrider. Then kill the Torturewebs

Room 4

Run to the furthest point of the room and dupe souls while doing the room. Try to right wall block dementias. On the 3rd wave try to kill the Despairs first as they take longer to settle. Last wave just ball and spike. While killing the waves, its very important to keep all glitched souls on the wall under 50% health, and to be in aggro of the glitched souls so they dupe.

Room 5

TBA

City

Whirl and move down the wall. You can get pretty intricate with how you do City, but its basically just whirling mobs 1 by 1.

2 Man

2 Rangers

2 Rangers: Fastest possible team, but extremely hard to do without extensive knowledge and experience.

The main concept is that you use a large amount of souls to whirl foundry rooms and city, and to split in veil.

Ranger Mes

Ranger Mes Duo: City and Veil can be difficult without extensive knowledge and experience

The main concept is whirling foundry with souls, and then just balling and spiking city/veil.

Ranger Monk

1 Ranger 1 Monk: Safest team, but the slowest. The ranger needs experience and knowledge to do his job, but the monk is much more relaxed.

The ranger does close to what a regular solo would do, except you have a monk bonder. Bonder allows the ranger to cast less enchants, and to have more energy. The monk can also be used to place spirits, take snakes, quests etc.

3 Man

literally just the solo bar x3

4 Man

Gloom

Basics: The VoRTK quest runs. Ranger balls stuff and we spike, while ranger uses aggro for whirling fuel.

Ranger

• Cave

The simplest way to do cave is to just grab all the mobs from cave and ball it on the corner where the earths spawn. If you pull the mobs too far then they will break. Try to kill the sanities and spirits that spawn during the quest, as they are the farthest away from the spot where you ball and they won't pull.

• Rift

During rift, you want to grab the caster tormentor patrol that spawns to the East of the rift cap, as well as the other casters that spawn. You will need to use these casters and whirl Deathbringer with them.

• Deathbringer

Wait for the group to settle and run in and whirl the spirit/heart/whatever runs out first, then whirl the main ball.

• Darkness

Whirl on spawn. If needed, you can whirl the casters on you for EoE damage to kill the Earths that are still alive.

Necro

• Cave

Trigger Cave. Spike Earths if emo decides to aggro them. Spike the ball the ranger makes.

• Rift

Kill the claw and help cap rift.

• Deathbringer

Trigger Deathbringer. Put EoE in range of Deathbringer, and once again for Darkness once in range.

• Darkness

Put EoE in range. Spike Earths if needed once the ball is mostly dead.

VoRTK

• Cave

You are the recall target for the ranger. Try to put the ranger as close to cave mobs once he glitches the first group. Spike Earths if needed and then spike the rangers main ball. Quest run while they are running towards rift.

• Rift

Quest run.

• Deathbringer

Either stuck the npc or follow him and avoid aggro thats in the way. Finish quest running

• Darkness

Run to the team. Help spike if need be.

Emo

Basically keep bonds on the ranger the whole time and stay in his range. Nothing really specific.

Loa Tactics

MLK Optionals: for beginners for exp players

Ryn TK Bar:

George IAU Bar:

Ether MT Bar:

Cruz TT Bar:

The main characteristics are jumps (EE, Recall or HoS) on every player and Edge of Extinction on the Seeder, which allows the Caller to have full Fast Casting, or bring other skills as optionals.

Tactics specific to Loa Tactics

• TK Takes 1st Snake, Caller takes 2nd.
• Edge of Extinction is placed outside city so the MT can hos thru right side. It is also in range of the 2nd spike.
• At the start of Gloom everyone should jump up the hill, so that MT can pull the spirits towards the gate as a DC target for the Trench Tank.

Pros

• The teambuild is capable of a very fast run (21).
• Shadow step on everyone
• Edge of Extinction on Seeder allows Caller to spike without delay.

Cons

• No Arcane Echo on Seeder requires good Seed of Life timing.
