    did that before the 7 hero thing.. did all factions solo in hm with h/h- the trick, well let me get my fuzzy memory working

    flagged 4 by the left door (the hench) and healer in the middle.. then flagged 2 by the right door

    as a ranger and elementalist this was pretty easy to beat I thought.. ele can just unload dot spells in a row on the turtles as they spawn.. ranger degen

    think I used hundred blades for warrior.. necro was blood (actually easy with him too).. monk I went all smite, and ray of judgement

    ritualist went spirit spammer with summon spirits.. assassin was just assassin with aura of displacement and deaths charge- set the aura inside camp and go take out the turtles as they spawn.. remove the enchant and go do the next one

    can probably help you later if you need.. helps to have a rit/necro as the healer, they don't run out of mana.. might have to do a practice run though :hehe: been years since did that map.. surprised I still remember :worried:

    Sounds about right http://www.guildwiki.org/Eternal_Grove

    Now, with the 7 heroes I'm contemplating the Guardian titles (I did some missions in hard mode with H/H before the change just to get the Zaishen coins but I know a few missions will be really tough (and some are actually easier in hard mode).

    Re: Necro, I liked the blood necro but I don't see it often. I played through all the campaigns & EotN as a vampiric blood necro (though that might have been more due to good hero / hench combos than my own skills) - still, it was a fun build.

    Actually for a bit I was a N/E with a minion master hero: in early & mid-game areas I had almost unlimited energy :lol: (but that was also before soul reaping was nerfed)

    blood necro is pretty powerful.. especially with necrosis, it's single mob damage is through the roof

    minion master with nova is a lot of fun too.. a lot of micro though.. crazy cause they make pretty good healers too- remember back in 2005.. remember you could make as many minions as you wanted

    so cheesey xD miss the old 55 monk too, back when protective bond would only use 2 mana a hit at 17.. use the 20% protection chance +1 offhand to cast it.. could roll the wastes in a few minutes- ecto used to drop like crazy too =] remember you could take a break under full attack- go to the store, come back and your monk would have no problem tanking it while you were afk :hehe:

    gw2 probably going to be more like wow.. the skill < time

    Speed clears are honestly the way to go, especially for Obby and Vabbi (since Sapphires drop from End-Chests and are Rare Drops) Being a terra (T1 etc.) will make it faster since you kill more and all the drops go to you. Check out my friends channel http://www.youtube.com/user/ginnidorka

    If ya wanna use your monk for somethin' T1 for UW has monk build out that is posted on PvX Wiki.

    If any of you would like a spreadsheet to track your elite skills (with icons & links to the official wiki even) and party/drunk/sweet points PM me. I have some very nice ones done in Excel.
