ToD solo

[EllisDee37]

Today I have flagged for ToD for the first time ever. I have located the cave. Entered on normal to look around. Won.
This was on a lvl 21 dwarven stalwart swashbuckler (second life, all ED though). I had most trouble in the second phase. I did not move at all. Cocoon and Sacred Ground and occasional CCW kept me alive (barely). Run out of my 700 spell points just when I killed him.

My resources consisted of: single deathward clickie. curse pots. few resist 30 pots after I realized I might actually pull it off. Selfcast buffs: blur, good hope. No DR breaker.

Time 42 minutes. Including multiple breaks for reading the wiki and assisting daughter with plasticine. And lost 5 minutes after phase 2 wondering how to go up to the chest. I guess a prepared character could easily beat normal.

Cool!

Though the ring farming is about to become obsolete once the healing amp changes go live and (one assumes) we'll have many more options for 20% amp.

I would not really count with that. Anyways, just to report. Tried it again at 23, dogs were much easier this time. Not sure if I should attribute it to extra +6 saves or to Elemental Absorption which I twisted. Killed Suulo. Then deathward clicky expired and restoration scrolls just don't cut it against energy drains => fail. Perhaps two deathward clickies would be a better choice, or bring moar DPS.

Being able to do that is another example of poor development. Raids should NOT be solo-able.
Not impressed, for me, it's like talking a lvl 20 toon into lvl 5 content.

I think its cool that he soloed TOD. That's a great achievement for his character.
