KT4 is undoubtedly best essence farming for event, you will get mostly energy essence, then elondrian, then glacial, and a few fire...never once seen a blood essence from that area which is good for me.

Hey, very nice guide, kill points help a lot in soloing tombs. But although your announced time of soloing this tomb with rogue is 2.5 mins, my rogue (lvl 36, no mythics, no supergems, using lvl 36 quills of brutality) soloes this tomb for about 3.5 mins. My build is standard (max aim+max nox+1/5 piercer+4/5 veil), at kill points I use veil+charged nox+uncharged aim (for crit boost)+auto-attack spam. Am I doing something wrong, or it's all just about gear?
It gets faster as you get more practiced at it and optimize your pulls. Daggers are faster than bow, in general.
Still 3.5 is a pretty decent time. This guide was made at the end of season 5, so using mostly level 36 end-of-season stats. It needs to be remembered that tomb mobs scale with your level also. Any increase in time here will apply across all tombs though, so the comparison numbers remain accurate. For a full run including all bosses and mobs, I'm about 3 minutes solo at level 41 with tons of experience in the map, so you're on track.
Also something I've noticed, is that your run times will get faster if you repeatedly use charged nox when doing the pulls. This is because it spreads the poison through the groups of mobs, so by the time you get back into the alcove to killl them in a bunch, many are already at low health.
(Disclaimer: This charged nox approach does not apply to lb speed running, just soloing this style tomb with mid-high density mob population)
Sera is a pro speed runner. I complete the tomb in around the same time as you on my rogue. I use the same strategy as you and have similar gear. I may give it a go using daggers and see what difference that makes. Also, something tells me that I would be quicker on Chrome. I pot a lot as a rogue and on tabs or phones you have to take your finger off the attack to spam pots. The other option is to take your thumb off the movement joystick(good in elites) but I don't like standing still in tombs. Take far too much damage that way. On the cpu you can do both at once.Quote:

Awesome Guide! I shall try this when i decide to cap.
Besides, Razor shield works pretty well when soloing kt4. If you have upgrades for duration and bleed (dodge is recommended, too, but not spinning freedom), you can speed up your runs by 20-30 secs (if you didn't use it). Unfortunately, your pet stays out of kill point and can't provide you with his buff, so charging your razors and then tapping Ribbit's/Gyrm's AA won't work(( Anyway, you can spam uncharged aimed and have a constant +30% crit boost, which is pretty decent.
On next lvl cap, should make a race between two teams, one in wt4 and one in kt4. All top50 what i know lvld in wt4 this season so im a bit sceptic but never know.
I was hoping to do this last cap, but was 3 hours late starting due to work, so it screwed the plan.
I can vouch a 100% for this nox is a must... bleeding ticks spread well the more closer the mobs are the more the chance the nox will spread and it doesn't get much closer than in these areas.Quote:

Also I'm not going into any detail... but there's an easier way to get the essences.
Boulder. No details needed. Lol It's not a big secret.
just wanna confirm.....skeletons spawned by witchs really dont give exp? exp only shows integers，sometime, kill two mobs will give you 1 exp....
actually...Quote:

if exp shows integers thats true , but killing 2 mobs can give you 1 exp only if your in a low lvl zone for example my lvl 13 twink got 1 exp from killing 5 mobs in [brakenridge] brakenridge
if your at a zone where an XP and its embedded in a symbol like this(/) means the exp produced from mobs is ULTRA LOW
its best recommended to go to a high level zone for better EXP.
I have confirmed with extensive testing. The mobs summoned by witches give 0xp and 0 kills. You can test on the first witches in WT3. They are there clean. You will get one kill for each witch and none for the mobs. 0 kill= 0 exp. That's 12 skellies if you let them summon all, so eliminates fractional exp.
that doesnt sound good for twinks who aim to level up in WT4Quote:

your guide gets an A++ and can be stickied since 98.97% of the people believe that WT4 is a great EXP run ZONE, which is an obviously FALSE , i had levelled up to 25 in KT4 when i met some people who said WT4 =>> MORE EXP bro go farm there , from then on i regret till now...
It would be a good idea for it to be stickied, but I think that's up to the mods.
Putting down 10m to whoever wanna take bet. 1st to level by a large margin and solo as well. And will be in KT4, it is 200% faster than the 2nd place map which is KT3 (pull all mobs up to first Y = 40kills/45sec) there. Anyone in WT4 who is not there to map or timed is a foolish fool, and that is not opinion it's fact. The majority idea is rarely the best...the majority end-game mages use fireball light shield curse and heal vs mage, and the majority die always to gale ice light shield heal. WT4 is garbage.Quote:

THIS is the "best pull strat for speed and xp efficiency" and I can confirm that no mobs are left behind during. And that the run is 1:30 as solo mage (faster or slower depending on 2nd 3rd and 4th players)
My pulls are designed for a party experience sharing.The pulls for speed and kill farming are completely different, Conrad. This is not a speed guide, it's an efficient leveling guide.
that is for low type geared , if you see sera's that is for when you at least have 1 warrior/tankQuote:

If you want to make a guide for kill farming or speed, you're welcome to do so on another thread.
I did this and my lvl1 pet gained xp after killing summoned skeletons in wt3. I cleared before the witches and the 3 skeletons behind them.Quote:

And now I've given up my secret gemming tart, just for you Hali ;)
Kt is not only good to level a character. In the last weeks I tested all tombs to level my pets and increase my kills. Kt4 is the best tomb for that. I have no numbers to prove that, I talk only from my experience. Mostly I run solo. Depending on the pets and how concentrated I am, I do Sera's pull or my.
Could you possibly make a solo leveling guide for rogues in tombs soon ? I'm at lvl 33 on mine and ashral is giving me so many deaths :/
Thnx ser
I can do that. Give me a few days though. Things are hectic atm.
i would rather suggest to pm the mods,Quote:

For solo leveling, use the first map (clockwise) in the first post. This has minimal backtracking and makes for the smoothest run.Quote:

For a solo end game rogue with legendary weapon, a full run is about 3:30. For a solo end-game mage with legendary weapon this same run is around 2:30. This includes killing 2 bosses. If you have no luck elixir from Klaas or Shazbot, I would not bother killing the bosses, and take faster runs instead. (Both examples are with legendary-type pets)
If you find the double pulls are too much, just do a single room at a time with the hall mobs, using the alcoves past each room as kill points. This saves on potions although it will make for a bit of a longer run (about 15 seconds more). However, if you die the mobs reset and will not pull nicely a second time, so it's better to live.
Note: these times should be totally doable for normal players of most levels, and are based on tests without elixirs. (the times of speed runners/super-geared players are faster but unrealistic for most).
Another note: Do not do this tomb at level 21 if you are running a 0 death toon. There is a difficulty spike when you hit that level that makes the bosses hit suuuper hard. I was killing them fine at 20 and then turned 21 and got one-hit twice before I knew what was happening. Bizarro.
Yea kt4 is very efficient and takes much less pots than wt4 and waay less laggy and random dcs, waay more locks and essences, but the prob is findin a gud pt. My lv33 stands for an hr and all comes only impatient ppl come and leave. Guild isnt helping also lol. I wish more ppl wud read this and spread the word so we can forget the old wt4. Sick of it xP
It's super easy to solo on any class. Fun fact also, mage AND warrior both solo it faster than a rogue does ;)
Ohhh ok ty lol ill try ^_^Quote:
