Hey Basil, My range is 802-1425 with no pot. I have 21 AE and I get the basic map layout and how to mob the Typhons together. (Trade, then take 1 side, mob them to the bramble corner and spam AE) The problem is. It just takes me literally forever to kill the whole mob. I keep luring more of them onto me and I've never actually managed to clear all of them (Always fell off before the mob completely died). Is my damage the reason? Or is there something else? If you have any helpful tips, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

you should never fall while killing a mob of typhons, stay all the way up against the ridge thing and KB them to the lower side of the plat <<<<< that way, so they attack you into the ridge Yes, it does take a while to kill these mobs, but it will get faster as you lvl. To save pots, you can cast puppet while all the way up against the ridge and AR them while they attack your puppet, lvl 1 puppet is fine for this because once it disappears, you should be able to keep the mob KB'd away from you.

It will take a while until you max AE and get stronger. Maybe try using ciders while training, thats what I did for a while at typhons until I got too lazy too buy them.

Yup, just stay in the corner of the platform so you hardly ever fall. You might want to consider an attack potion to speed it up until your skills develop. I'm no bowman, but falling shouldn't be a problem for the most part when you just killing the mob you've already loured.

[/quote] I am sure he means falling because of their KB attack, which can't really be avoided. As you said though, it is minimized by standing in the corner of that platform. Do the Marker of Heroism Quest; in my opinion it is really a necessity if you are going to go Typhoning.

You just have to get used to recovering when your are knocked away from the corner. I used to fall a lot, but now I hardly fall at all.

If you fall off, spam pots and you will return to the bottom of the map... Unless it only works for WR. Try usin dem apples D:<

(macro wont help you here, macro sometimes keep you from moving and that's annoying, i didnt turn off my macro cuz it's awesome ) when i lag i fall 4 times as much when my internet is fast

theres a little bump thing in the middle of the map near a spiky bush that does 15 damage i think? anyways stand looking twords the right... when shooting Arrow eruption that will make them hit u >>>> or vice versa i forgot anyways thats a good technique not to fall or u can cast puppet on the far left of the platform and to gather go up left down down up back to ur middle spot

[/quote] It was more of a problem for me then it will be for him, because I jumped around more, whereas with his attacks, you have to be on land.

[quote] koko800 : I just have to say, don't try mobbing at the bottom x-x [/quote] puppet is the key to this, sometimes the mob is just too crowded to climb back up, so you have to kill them all at bottom, require killing fast though you dont want to build up the mobs, probably around 9x with high level puppet

[quote] magical0n3 : Has anybody tried Typhon partying? [/quote] yep. I duo'ed with a few bowman/cb at around the same level as me and its almost always faster. 2 people luring is a lot better then 1, and the killing speed should make up for the lost experience. Remember that when you have less then 2 typhons left, you should, if you are confident in your jumping/avoiding skills, lure more typhons. When i went earlier with lower level ae/r, it took forever to kill em, but the exp balanced it out. Just get used to it, remember to pot when you fall to avoid going to the jump quest, and lure, lure, lure :D
