Advice/Info

● When starting the kill with fishing explosives, you will want to throw the fishing explosives while close to the boss, run back 5-6 tiles and run back towards the boss once the projectile is in the air. With a Shadow of tumeken, you can walk 3 tiles instead. This will save you 2 ticks per kill, and allows you to get another ~2 kills per hour if done correctly. Tweet explaining the

Method:

– Thrown Fishing explosive from nearby to make it arrive ASAP.

– Mage it from 5-6 tiles away to delay the hitsplat, preventing it from getting nulled.

This is 2 ticks faster than if you keep standing on the same tile, allowing for 2 more kills/hr.

Example with shadow (no difference other than run energy):

If you are using a Sanguinesti staff, it needs to be put on long range.

● Pray Preserve and bring a Super restore if you don’t have a Saturated heart.

● The Volatile Nightmare Staff can be used as a spec weapon.

● Use Ancestral if:

→ You have a Harm – or Sanguinesti Staff (shield doesn’t matter)

→ OR you have a Toxic Trident with an Elysian Spirit Shield (no other shield can substitute this)

● If you don’t have a Harmonised Nightmare Staff, Sanguinesti Staff OR an Elysian Spirit Shield then you should prioritise mage defence.
