Ok got in the place fine, killed the 2 patrols on the platform which were thankfully the lil sperm dudes so I had invisi up, killed those guys and looted the key.

Cleared the first 2 golems and then proceeded to calm the room ahead and single pull a skeleton and another lil sperm dude to kill. The skeleton harmtouched me and it took like 60% of my health, cleared them both fine but is there any way to avoid the HT damage other than a rune every single time? Will be expensive to keep casting rune =D

Nope, HS costs dots, just a fact of Life. Rune lasts a long time however, so plan on allowing your charm pets to eat HT's whenever possible.

You should almost never eat a HT. The only reason you ever should is if you get a lull fail, or your mez leading off combat resists (which should almost never happen), or you are sitting where a mob with HT respawns cause you weren't paying attention to spawn times and/or where you were sitting.

So you went into HS north and were trying to pull the first room in there where there are 4 mobs spawned in corners? I try to lull HTers first (so if you manage to lull 1 then get a crit fail, at least it is one fewer HT you're going to eat) and pull others first. If you have to engage a HTer, lead off by mezzing the HTer. Then you can stun, mez, tash the other mob when it comes to you, remez the HTer, charm the other mob, blur/root/whatever HTer, sic pet on him.


I wouldn't mess around in north at all, not even the first room until you have kind of progressed through learning entrance and basement. I don't think clearing more than 1 named room is realistic until you are probably 56-57+. Before then you'll be stretched awfully thin making sure you don't accidentally pull a whole room by aggroing a pather in the hallway or getting in trouble with charm breaks or lull crit fails.

I managed to actually clear out the first room, but it cost me half my health as I failed to remember the undead HT. I was just asking for a way to cover that as I didn't want to be using a peridot every 10-15 mins..

I think I'm not brave enough to go any further than that but as I am struggling to kill more than 4 golems + the pats in the entrance I just kind of gave that a shot so I have a somewhat safe spot ( in between the golems and the 4 room ) to afk, obviously with DE Hide + IVU.

In terms of clearing that anyway my plan so far is to just lull the entire room one by one and then charm one of the skeletons to pull, so I can avoid the HT and when pulling a bottomless feaster if one is up blow his HT on that.

I did try to clear more than 4 golems but I got repops on the zone in and some unlucky root breaks but managed to gate at 6% hp [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
