The hardest part of the game for you will be getting corrupted shell up and running. KEEP all gear that has good +CON on it so you can gear stack ot meet the 50 con for the prodigy. So the later early game and early t2s will be awful. Once you have Corrupted shell and are around level 28-30 you should be a Walking Death Machine. I took Arcane Might this run. Last time I took I Can Carry The World. Arcane Might seems slightly better, but honestly its a tossup. Take AM if you are unsure of what to do.
After playing through the game maybe you should 5/5 Reckless Strike before putting more than 1 in flame of urh rok. or maybe 3/5 Flame of urh rok and max Reckless first. The damage is nuts.

Progression: Do the starting area and hopefully the boss will drop planar beacon(you might want to rereun until you get it as its useful for a LONG time. You can use it when silenced to run away a little bit or break grapple). After that MAKE SURE YOU SPEND YOUR LEVEL POINTS before you leave the level. It puts you in a raondom area and hopefully you dont get an escort cuz it will probably be hard to save them. Rod of recall to the main map and go to Trollmire. .

Trollmire>Kor Pul>Scint caves>Rhaloren Camp>Norgos>Heart of the Gloom.

IMPORTANT at level 17 remove your Rod of Recall from your bar so you dont use it as it randomly triggers and event. I died here every time it pulled me (3-4) before i got corrupted shell up and running.

Maze>Old forest> i hit 25 here so i then went to Mark of the Spellblaze to get Corrupted Shell>Sandworm>Daikara> Urkis Quest> Ruined Dungeon>Halfling Ruins and then Dreadfell

Categories:10

Take Fearfire. Fearscape shift has awesome synergy with Flame of Urh Rok. Heals you. If you have planar beacon this stacks, it is great.

How to play:

Important Skills:

Fiery Aegis: Shields are always good. This one gets bigger for each enemy around you burning when you use it.

Blazing Rebirth: Brings you back to full hp and shares the negative part among the burning enemies around you.

Cauterize Spirit: Removes all negative status effects. Best if used on just one or two strong effects you NEED to remove Burning Hex/ Confusion
Draining Assault: Hits twice, Heals you, refills Vim. Might want to max much earlier than I did.

CRAFT QUARTZ RINGS in Angolwen when you find them. 30% Stun res per ring.

Once you get to level 10 you are going to fearscape on guys to initiate. You have Fiery Aegis to use as a shield and you should have a Shielding rune(i set to auto use when enemy is visible and adjacent) as well to help if you start to get hit hard. I have Draining Assault bound to my left click and Abduction on my middle mouse. Use fiery grip to silence any dangerous classes and beat them to death.

The avg fight all game will be Fearscape Shift into a big ♥♥♥ mob, Highborns Bloom> Destroyer >RecklessStrike (gives ALL damage pen for 6 turns after you use it) > Obliterating Smash usually deletes 90%+ of whatever you hit.

If you find yourself in a spot and you think you are going to die use Highborns Bloom>Surge of power>Destroyer>Fearscape. Dont forget the Fearscape ONLY heals you if Flame of Urh Rok is active, otherwise it will ♥♥♥♥ you up. The first clip is me using this. The rest is just fun ♥♥♥♥.

Killing urkis ez af, clearing a pride entrance etc.

After you have Corrupted Shell you can use your Rod of Recall again without fear and kill the demons.

Inscriptions early
Shatter Afflictions
Shielding(rune of reflection if ur lucky)
Shielding or movement

At 34 I took Rune of Dissipation to help with Master.

T2: Maze>Old Forest(I hit 25 here and the went to Mark of Spellblaze to get Corrupted Shell)>Sandworm Lair>Daikara>Urkis>Ruined Dungeon>Dreadfell

Master And Ambush

The hardest part of the game for you will be getting corrupted shell up and running.
Farming blight damage. BORING.

After you get this up and running you almost cant die. If you get into danger your go to bail out is Highborns Bloom(surge of power if you are particularly low and scared of dying when you fearscape)> Destroyer>Fearscape as being in fearscape heals you if Flame of Urh Rok is active. Once here use fiery grip to silence whatever danger you pulled to hell and then fight them however.

Reknor> Vor Armory and then Briaghs Lair and go back West and do back up Guardians
SWL(you get cat point here with worm bile>scint>old forest>maze>kor pul>trollmire>deadfell>daikara>reknor>Tannens Tower

I did Elven Ruins at this time which is a dangerous End game area. You should be lvl 50 and have faith in your gear. I got The Black Plate and Dethbled(THE sword for our class) in Elven Ruins. If you still need gear after going back east do the spider cave. Lots of good drops here.
East Again:(spider caves if you have bad gear, talk to the woman in the middle of Gates of Morning)

Final FightI forgot to use Highborns Wrath and my Shield Rune cuz i had them on auto cast all game LOL. Do better than I did. Also watch for burning hex EVERY round. MUST CLEAR. Replace the Rune of Dissipation with another Shatter whenever ever you can afater killing Elandor in case your first Shatter misses Burning Hex( like mine did)

Escorts
Loremaster: Mag or Str +5

Alchemist: Mag +5 or Stone Touch OR Stone Alchemy category ( Can 5/5 imbue item and put a T5 gem in your armor) (would take with bile)

Seer: Premonition +1Sun Paladin: Can take the chants Category if you want, I took Chant of Fortress

Thief: Track or Lacerating Strikes. Id take strikes.

Warrior: Vitality and then Strength

(Advanced)Tinker: ask where they learned their craft and take it at 34, just take stats if you have no idea what you are doing.

Defiler: Curse of Death +1 and then Mag

Temporal Explorer +5 Mag
Alchemist quest

+2 class from Hermit, 2 genrics from Last Hope, and then do Stire of Dearth and hope you can get the Lifebinding Emerald. If you get the book to make the special amulet do Lifebinding Emerald/ Petrified Wood but if you dont use Goedaloth Rock or whatever its called. Rock/Wood Amulet ;]

ADDONS

Improve Auto-explore and Rest
Makes it so when you have things on autocast it waits for them to be ready again before you explore. Without this addon putting Wrath of Highborn on autouse when enemies are visible and adjacent will result in you exploring BEFORE it is ready. The only way around this is to manually cast it. No thanks.

Simplified Prodigy Requirements
This makes Corrupted Shell only need 75 blight damage instead of 7,500 taken. Otherwise you have to farm a ghoul hitting you for 5 mins like I did.

Escorts Enhanced
Makes the escorts actually follow you and not ♥♥♥♥ off and die for no reason.

Faster Run/Rest/Explore
Just speeds up autoexplore. Saves time, changes nothing in the game.

REMOVE damage Reqs from Prodigies.

Does fearscape heal other Doombringer rares/bosses if they have Flame sustained? If so, how'd you deal with that?

[knifebutton]

You can use Rune of Dispersion on them or just dont Fearscape them. Just Fiery Grasp>Abduction>Reckless Strike>Draining Assault and they are probably dead. Any fire that heals YOU is going to heal them as well. Conversely if your flame is turned off your own fearscape will hurt you.
