Alt boost is slowing down..need advice :) DMMLP

[chansi]

Tried bringing my healers in, no matter where I stand with them they draw aggro as soon as I iceblock.


Even tried pulling a small pack of 6 and using max rank AE, as soon as I IB they sprint for my characters.



X are the spots I've tried sitting them. Blue is where I iceblock.

The idea is to top up after Iceblock. Maybe that made it unclear or just said it wrong. There should be no threat issues if you stay far enough away. Then you pop out of IB, nova blink and start topping yourself up.

The only way I can do it is if I stick them in the far far corner and only get heals when I'm inbetween the two corner pillars. I don't pre-heal at all to draw aggro. No matter where I put them outside of that back corner it doesn't seem to work out too well. I guess heals sometimes are better than none haha.

I recorded the sm cath gardens 1 pull, might start adding more as I'm boosting

Thanks for the video! that looks fun.. im guessing you run into the lockout timer with this method?

By only doing the one pull? Yeah, it takes about 5 min including looting. I reccomend pulling interior in 2 pulls, center with all the abots in one and then gather both sides (not wings) as doing the boss pull is hard solo.

The better solution is to do both cath and armory per reset, I recorded how to do 90% of armory in 2 pulls earlier today and going to upload tomorrow

Are you using rank 1 blizz on the pack closest to the boss, running out, and using blizz? or CoC/FS? I've got the two courtyards down if everything goes right...but once I get to the inside the always break apart when they stop to heal and the heals are so strong they live for forever....and they can silence your frost spells even if you arent casting them.

Edit:

Have always started with rank 1 blizz on the furthest pack in middle, running out and rank 1 blizzing the door to slow them.

From there I've tried to nova/FS/CoC.

Tried to nova/CoC

Tried to nova/blizz

They always break apart and stop at different times to heal, and cast two different heals.

A full mana pool on a half pull and they are all at 60% +


Side pulls are ezpz with all the mages regenerating my mana pool.




Edit 2: I'm leaving all these edits, trials, and tribulations up so if anyone else is getting discouraged they can see someone else prevailed who was struggling just the same.


Managed to pull middle with ease, my issue was as soon as they got low I would keep using blizzard. Once they are at about 20-30% run in and nova/CoC and start spamming AE and they drop like flies.

Yeah that's what I do, I keep man's pots on hand here because those abots have insane heals and you might risk going oom. If you struggle with these its advisable to split the middle in two pulls

Have gotten haflway through level 37 and I don't think I'll ever level 4 chars with a 60 ever again and I don't recommend it to anyone else.


Went smooth through several runs now every reset I'm getting literally 12-18 mages per level outside. Constant resist from defenders. It's literally so RNG dependent it isn't even worth the small amount of time you'd save running alts. Thank god I only have 3 more levels in here or I'd be done multiboxing.


Have resorted to pulling 1 level at a time outside and still get resists, this time I'm blizzarding an entire pack and looking at the reticle with my own two eyes and 10 break free and charge me.
