Solo Artist Challenge

[Inconstant]

So I kind of went AWOL for a 1.5 years and came back a few weeks ago. This challenge series is hella fun so I got back to it. Spent most of the time living in sebilis trying to hit some targets.

[x] Gangrenous Scarab [51 Warrior, Sebilis]

 

Gangerous Scarab: First attempt I mezz/slowed/charmed scarab when he popped into empty room and went for a reverse charm kill. Jin shaman spawns which got a root/tash. They go at it...

...sham casts blind (damn it has near insta cast time), charmed scarab goes nuts and starts walking down the jail hall ignoring my /pet back off spam. It aggro's 2 necro's from jail. I pull it back - at this point 2nd frog pops in scarab room. 4 mobs hitting on it, it's going down fast. AE mez and immediately break charm - gangerous is at 1% - root breaks from jin, pox summons, stun gets resisted and I cap out.

Second attempt - went great for most of the fight. When i broke charm at 1% the scarab died to a DoT. I should have broken earlier. I break charm so that I only have to nuke once but I didn't compensate for DoTs.

Third attempt - went smooth. Charmed gangerous as first pop in the room. Rooted other 2 pops that were timed to pop together. Broke charm and nuked for the kill.

[x] Froggy [52 Warrior, Sebilis Chef/Bar]

 

Froggy: ran around killing only the named ph's for Froggy, Armorer and Armsman. I'd charm lowest level frogs I could find in the room, preferably knights or wizards since shamans are annoying as hell with DoT and dispel casts. When froggy popped I charmed a bok wiz near him and calmed rest. Tash/root/slow Froggy and send bok in (not even weaponised because why take more hits when charm breaks). Charm broke once but bedlam/rune ate the hits during the recharm.

[x] A cliff golem [58 Warrior, The Overthere]

 

Cliff Golem: At this point i'd been living in seb and chasing nameds in abc for a long time. Seb was getting boring so I decided to take a crack at the cliff golem. First time I aggro'd a whole lotta hurt, got summoned and charm boke.

To add insult to injury I capped out.....and zoned to see my naked body (and the WC cap charge was used - how annoying).

Second time pet broke near the end so I just used a Wand of Allure charge on the foreman to get the kill.

Not wanting to settle for an S- i went at it again. I pulled golem with tash and got a Dragoon add (it must have just it night time which causes the goon squad to path). A shaman fiending for c2 help me out while i was running for a zone line because dayum does one of those dragoons have high MR and run speed. Second time i foolishly let my pet die. Raptured golem and gated.

Third time's the charm right? Everything went smoothly this time around. Hasted pet, pulled Golem with tash/rapture/slow. Put a bedlam and rune v on pet and that made the fight so look easy (as you can see from the screenshot - pet had close to 75% hitpoints).

[x] Froglok Chef [52 Warrior, Sebilis Chef/Bar]

 

Chef: While running back and forth between Armorer and Armsman spawns I saw that Chef was up. With 5 frogs in the room you just pray you don't get a crit resist on calm off the first cast. Luckily i was able to calm whole room. Petted a krup knight and just rooted/slowed chef to get the kill. The extra krup in the pic is one I pulled to break the room up some as calm was wearing off.

[x] Froglok Armorer [52 Warrior, Sebilis Chef/Bar]

 

Armorer: Armorer was up immediately after the Chef kill. Calmed room, petted wiz, slowed chef and that was it. I kept calming the shaman in the room during the fight and an unfortunate consequence is that he kept healing the armorer. In the end it made little difference.

[x] Froglok Repairer [52 Warrior, Sebilis Chef/Bar]

 

Repairer: Popped after Chef room clear. Petted a krup wiz and then i made a mistake. I got impatient and pulled repairer with tash then stun/rooted while the last few seconds of mez were working on my pet. I now had aggro on repairer and he chain summoned me (which isn't that big of a deal). Another mistake was that I didn't even have slow memmed. Sloppy. Just as i was about to refresh bedlam and rune my pet broke charm and i got summoned into both of them. I landed a stun on both but the repairer resisted the AE mez that followed. Got greedy and instead of capping out i went for another stun which was too late. This was my last named frog to attain Disciple rank (and not even a tough spawn!). Ugh.

Did a naked CR back down. Had to camp out aggro from a single bok but otherwise it went fine. Second round went a as it should have. Calmed room. Petted a krup knight and pulled repairer with it. Root/tash/slow and that was it.

Camped aggro from pet and started to dragged my corpse to zl. Got a crit resist on calm. Luckily only the single frog ran at me. Mezzed and camped aggro. Got another crit resist and had to deal with 3 frogs.

[x] Froglok Ostiary [50 Warrior, Sebilis Disco]

 

Ostiary: Logged in to get a rez from that repairer death and headed down to disco. Found Ostiary up. Petted a dar knight, tash/root/slow on Ostiary did the job with a final nuke at the end because pet was getting low. Got some adds but was happy to gate to ent as I was up for a king group.
