[Sunken Temple Zolo Boosting]The tips and Tricks

[Lyonheart]

I have been running SH the last few days non stop and no damn trink yet! I was honored.. ill be exalted after a few more runs tonight. But i want the trink and i wont do any other instance until I get it. What sucks the most is SH has only greens, very rare random BoEs and the shards from DEing the boss loot. So doing the entire instance for this trink is painful when it does not drop! why couldn't they have put it on Murmur or the last boss in SV? hehe Those two places are cash cows!

Say what?!

Shattered Halls is way easier than Shadow Labs.

Especially if you are a prot pally, in bad gear my pally would do these runs with nonstop pulling, only mobs that i ever took caution on were the ones with the MS debuff, and once i got savagery off them i never pulled them again. I abosultely despise Shadow Labs, would do heroic SH in blues before id go back to Shadow Labs.

He's not saying SH is harder, just that its less profitable to run - which I totally agree with. You'll come out of SL with a bunch of Aldor rep items which sell for a nice premium, fel armaments sell for as much or more than a LPS right now it seems... smaller market volume though. And the only tough part for me in SL is the ogre boss. He's not too hard even if you burn cooldowns right off and gear for Stamina.

But anyways offtopic, Zolo is nerfed, long live Zolo! amirite?

This was nerfed last night. I just went to do it today and you no longer get experience for the skeletons. Zolo also dies ALOT faster.

Yep you can skip those ms dudes they are a serious pain if your healer isnt geared well/you aren't geared well, otherwise id wait till they half kill themselves and then take them down.

Ya i re-read the SH/SL post, my bad profitability is pretty good if you are going to have to do an instance countlessly, I'm just not a big fan of that ogre boss probably because last time i tanked him i didn't have any mana pots and was in all blue tanking gear(some not even tanking gear) and couldn't pick aggro up after the MC.

Yes, you can run right through the center of the rooms where the gladiators are -- pull the mobs on the other side first that are fighting the training dummies, sometimes if you fight by the training dummies then you get the gladiator adds from the sides for whatever weird (buggy) reason.
For the gauntlet I just strafe (to avoid daze) all the way through to the end with the Shaman in tow, picking up adds with Rank 1 consecrate, then pop Figurine, wings, consecrate and focus fire on the elites while Fire Nova / Magma Totem take care of the non-elites. Easy mode.


To keep this somewhat on topic - do the adds in the gauntlet give XP? Because there's an infinite supply of them....

I'm not talking about easy or hard.. they are both easy for me. its about the time it takes and the loot that drops. SH has only trash loot and greens ( besides boss loot to DE ) And random BoE blues. But both SL and SV have all that plus Marks/Motes..Armaments..Herbs..Mining nodes..more chests..on and on. I'm just saying that clearing SH = way less profit than SV or SH hehe. They are all on easy farm for me ( normal mode)

[Toned]

Ya they do, but so does the lycelum for lowbies. (shit exp for lycelum).

[Lyonheart]

Those packs on the sides are easy if you wait until they are fighting and their HPs get lower than 40%. I do that then focus fire the main guy and the adds die with one nova and a few ticks of magma. But I only pull them if an unlocked chest is behind them hehe. ( i got savagery on my first run )

Anyone know if they also nerfed the skellies on Rivendare in UD Strat? I'm disappointed since my druids are getting close to what was the Zolo level range.
