ZF is the new ST

[atticus589]

Sooo I recently started doing the RAF deal, and learned that 35-?? is where it gets difficult the mobs in instances are no longer single spell kill mobs so it takes longer. Well I remembered reading about ST and how you could farm the mobs that Zolo's totem spawns... I spent an hour running to stonard 30 mins getting to Zolo only to have the mobs now reward 3 exp and hit for 100-200 damage a second. Soo after disappointment I decided I was going to farm ZF because of the 2, 1h swords that can forge the epic sword. (ret pally hahah)
Well I noticed that one of the mini-bosses had a similar spell that ZOLO had... and I tested the exp gained, and boom 170ish exp a kill EASY 1/2 hits too like 500 hp.

Sooo I decided I was going to let MMOWNED in on the secret.

Lets start with where this mini-boss is, it happens to be Hydromancer Veratha(sp?) and to get to here there are multiple ways but if you are bringing lowbies it is going to be easier to get here the way I am saying so you don't have to worry about killing the mobs around her you just pull her into the hallway that she pats by.

nice guide =/

[atticus589]

I felt that this wasn't a guide because this totem is not working as intended, so you are exploiting the fact that the mobs that have 400ish health give exp, and spawn endlessly.

Just my 2c.

[The Doctor]

I think that this belongs in the Exploits section, but nevertheless really nice contribution.

+Rep, nice contributation, keep it up

[Custer]

Question: How are you killing them as a warlock the easiest way? Are you just tabbing around using siphon life? Because that would probably get boring quite fast

[atticus589]

Little update I guess...

I am using siphon life, they hit for 50 I get 250 hp back a tick between like 10 skeletons at a time.

DO NOT TAB TARGET you will target the boss and she is extremely weak.

I got 2 levels in about 45 mins, before I accidentally tab killed the boss.

in that 45 mins only 1 time and for about 4 seconds did I not have at least 1 skeleton on me.

Did someone not already post this spot in ZF?

[KantTouchThis]

Nice! Gonna try this later .. +rep when i can
How fast do the skeletons come back, and can I just wand them down and wait for the boss to re-cast the spell?

[atticus589]

You should on average have about 3-10 skeletons on you at once, on occasion you'll kill them too fast and be left with none, but very rarely.

Wanding them is a possibility it takes about 12-15 seconds for my siphon life to kill them each.

You will definitely need healing if you are going to farm the skeletons.

So would a paladin work with this? Considering Consecrate would kill the boss as well right? Does she heal?

The boss does heal, but she targets the lowest mob to heal... but you night possibly, like be able to get her around the corner or something or on a ledge so she wouldn't get hit by the Consecrete
