It’s the chain I beat you with until you
recognize my command!”
So I’ve started running a condition necro, and am getting decent at it, at least I think so, and wanted to start soloing some dungeons. I wanted to start with AC, as that one seem fairly easy, and I’m very familiar with it. The main concerns I have are with the spider queen, and the graveling burrows. I figure I could kite the spider adds to the stacking point and melt them there and kite the queen around in the room there, but not sure if more adds spawn or not. Also the burrow room where you need to keep the guy alive. This room generally goes smoothly with a party, but in some pugs it can take forever. How would one go about do that solo? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
You won’t solo the burrows room on a necro, even less on a condition specced one.
All the other fights can easily be soloed on condinecro though.
Yeah thats what I was afraid of. I was thinking it would be possible on P3 though, at least there is a bit of a break between burrows, and the collectors can take a bit more punishment than the explorer. Any thoughts?
P3 is probably even harder. Since there are 15 burrows. I think only 5 for P1. I dont’ think I ever seen videos of P3 solo. Most of the solo video I seen is P1.
hmm will have to check those out. Thanks! I do understand that some of the puzzles as a condi necro will be paticularly challenging, but I don’t think the bosses should pose much of a problem. Melt and run.
I solo P3 on a daily basis to sell it. Burrows are incredibly easy and it’s not rare that RNG allows me to do perfect solo with no gravelings spawning…
P3 is easier for sure, but still requires direct damage or incredible kiting abilities (seen once on a guard with a staff :sigh:).
Any tips on spider queen?
FGS and a lot of reflex to dodge her attack timely. And some stacks o’ might as well.
Iris, he’s on a condinecro…
I’d say move back and forth so she’ll use her poison aoes at her feet !

Or, you can not use a scrub weapon and do it normally.
relevant plug:
key things for me were condition cleansing the immobilise and dodging the weakness/bleed autoattack. not sure how many cleanses necro has but i’m sure if you’re not lazy like me you can probably just dodge the immobilising web attack.
You could probably do it the same way as colesy did on the warrior. Take parasitic contagion for sustain. Use consume conditions, plague signet and deathly swarm for condi cleanse/transfer. Proceed to faceroll.

Lol, with cleansing ire and as warrior the fight is even easier than on a cleric fgs ele.
Nice! Great video BTW. The biggest problem I seem to have is the Poison AoE. I might try a more up close and personal appraoch with melee instead of medium range, as it appears that she will drop the AoE closer to her making it easier to dodge/move out and have more room. With a ranged approach the AoEs are so wide spread it doesn’t leave much room to stay clear.
Also FYI, Necro has a bunch of Condition cleanses and transfers. Dagger 4, Staff 4, DS, Consume conditions, Well of Power converts conditions, Signets to cleanse and transfer, and others I’m sure I’m not using due to weapon sets.

Alright, going for attempt number 2. I’ll let you know what happens.
ok still getting beat badly…I can get her around 50% health, but that poison just hurts!
any ideas?
(edited by pdavis.8031)
Either melee or range. Melee? No poison fields ever.
Range? Just semi afk her, moving some steps forward or backwards, each time she uses the poison attack.
