I logged Tecmos into solb a couple hours before Tranix was due, figuring I'd snag a LDC and head into lair with it and just sock on his spawn keeping the spider fettered while I waited for him. Right next to me when I logged in though, were a FC monk and shaman who also were headed to Tranix. I proposed I solo it and they get the loot so I could avoid any drama or anything that would spoil this counting as a challenge kill, they accepted, and we sat around killing some LDCs and FGs while we waited.

Turns out LDCs have exceptional MR though. The one I had was only level 45, but he was breaking fetter early about 50% of the time even with tash. Compare that to level 50 mobs in HS which NEVER EVER break fetter early when they are tashed. So I ended up leaving the spawn to FC while I went and got an imp.

I really hate this zone though. Sonic bats pathing out of nowhere, lava beetles hiding in the lava, green aggro and see invis and OMG I HATE THIS ZONE. It took me like a half hour to get from entrance to solb to freeti, grab an imp, then get back to tranix room.

The spawn was like 5-6 minutes later than I thought it would be, and it was driving me nuts to wait for it, knowing that this was my last kill for a while: http://postimg.org/image/b5pfqhpvl/

But finally, he popped. My pet took the HT right away and then I moved in to tash, root, slow: http://postimg.org/image/cuw89osv7/

From there I took turns letting my pet get beat on while I refreshed bedlams and tanking Tranix so pet could backstab. He ended up sticking some dots on me, though, which was pretty annoying... but I didn't feel like using a cure pot and I was too fail to remember to click off grim aura when I saw a magic dot incoming: http://postimg.org/image/rz41nlenn/

Then I had a charm break and was a bit slow recognizing it as such and stunning my pet, but I did hit the imp with a stun and then fire off a boltrans while the slowed tranix was hitting/casting on me, then bedlam and back off. I decided a couple stinging wort clicks were warranted, since I was under 50% from dots and the charm break: http://postimg.org/image/mr6a32dif/

The rest of the fight proceeded normally, with me throwing bedlams/runes on myself and my pet and alternating tanking and medding.

I really have NO motivation to do god-mode soloing though, except perhaps a fear break and golem kill sometime in the not-too-near future.
