| − | *When you zone into Floodplain of Mahnkelon, head left towards the first group of Ntouka / Steelfang Drakes. |
||
| + | * Exit Rilohn Refuge into the Floodplains of Mahnkelon and take the bounty. |
||
| − | *Target the Ntouka or Drake that is farthest away from you, then use Death's Charge to Shadowstep to it. Immediately after you shadowstep, activate [[gw:Dash|Dash]] to break aggro. After hitting Dash for the second time, you will have broken aggro of the group. |
||
| + | * Travel east into the first group of Ntouka, then use Dash as they begin to aggro you. |
||
| − | *Use [[gw:Shadow of Haste|Shadow of Haste]] shortly after passing the first mob.(you may have to use it while the mob is still following you, they'll break aggro shortly.) |
||
| + | * Immediately use Dark Escape the second Dash ends, running past the Ntouka toward the right-side path. |
||
| − | *Follow the path right until you are in the middle of the stone bridge. |
||
| + | * Use Dash when it becomes available again to break the aggro train of the Ntouka. |
||
| − | *About 5 groups of Veldt Nephila should have spawned. |
||
| + | * About a third of the way through the right-side path, use Shadow Of Haste and run down to the area that triggers Fastfoot's spawn. |
||
| − | *Activate [[gw:Dash|Dash]] to return to your original location. |
||
| + | * Use Dash again to cancel Shadow Of Haste and return safely to upper the path. |
||
| − | *Wait for the groups to mob up. (This may take a minute.) |
||
| + | * Wait patiently for all the spiders to gather into one group. This will take about 40 seconds. |
||
| − | **If you're interested in earning 136 Sunspear Promotion points, you can sneak along the Northwest wall near the rock crevice, go over the hill and attain the Insect Blessing from the Wandering Priest at the Resurrection Shrine near the Kournans. Be sure not to aggro the Kournans for too long, or they'll send out Siege attacks at you(killing you quickly). An efficient use of SoH on top of the hill and Dash once you've gotten the Blessing can teleport you back to safety. |
||
| + | * Approach the group and activate Dark Escape just before you aggro them. |
||
| − | *Run into the small crevice in the rock, out of sight of the spiders. (Don't aggro the spiders yet.) |
||
| − | * |
+ | * Run back up the path and against the side of the rock face. If done correctly, the spiders won't be able to target you with their ranged attacks. See How To for the exact spot. |
| + | * Cast Arcane Echo, Visions of Regret and Empathy on Fastfoot and watch the destruction! |
||
| − | *Cast [[gw:Ether Nightmare|Ether Nightmare]] and [[gw:Echo|Echo]] [[gw:Cry of Pain|Cry of Pain]] as much as possible. |
||
| − | *Cast [[gw:Cry of Frustration|Cry of Frustration]] while [[gw:Cry of Pain|Cry of Pain]] recharges. |

||
| − | since the cry of pain nurf this variation gives about the same damage output but since lyssas aura is constantly up its almost imposible to run out of energy. also be shure to always target fastfoot as keeping images on him causes him to die around the same time as the rest of the mob. |
