Lv 160 PA DrK Zakum Solo
#1
[color="#cc8899"]
First off, has anyone done this in gMS yet?

I brought this up once before.
It should be possible within 4 hours. Arms shouldn't take more than 40-45minutes (I can hit 3 or so at a time on right, 3 on left, and be left with the top one on each side).

I have 20 stance, so for the most part knockback won't be an issue.

I have a damage range of just about 12k with an apple, probably 13.5k with a gelt. I have 3 gelts. The plan is to buy 21 apples (eww 80-100m) and have enough to last 4 hours. If I run out, I'll use blood (12 attack). For the bodies I'll be standing on the bottom left spamming Fury. Hopefully I'll be able to agro without killing enough mobs to dodge a lot of 1/1s and stuns. I will bring 4500 ginsengs, 600 sorcerers. The sorcerers are only for use while the MP Eater arms are alive (I don't want to overpot because my mana is low). Otherwise the ginsengs take care of my mana needs.

1 problem - I have no internet at the moment. So until it gets fixed, I can't even go buy the apples or think about the run. Lol.

Before the full solo, I'll do an arms only solo with no apples to get a rough idea of how much time it will take (divide time by 2, then extrapolate for bodies).

Any suggestions are welcome, but I probably won't listen. I'm stubborn like that (Rush maxed at 14x O.o).

Oh, and L> People to help me get into the altar.

What's your attack range? With an apple? I could calculate exactly how long it should take you if you were spamming with no interruptions. Just find out how long it'd take to kill each arm, multiply that by 4 (since there's 4 positions to attack from), then total up how much it'd take for each body.

Oh, and if you want to cut corners potion-wise, buy chews. They give 80 attack for 7 minutes, yet only cost a few hundred thousand meso (200k~400k I think).

Hmm, roughly 6-12m for the chews I'd need. I'll consider that. Range with blood (+12) is roughly 3500-8000. I can get more accurate numbers when I can actually get internet to get on maple. I'm at work right now. I'm using pap times (appleless) then cutting it down to 2/3 the time with apple (because Pap has what is essentially a wdef up, stuns, and is generally an pimento). I can solo Pap in 20 minutes without an apple. With, probably about 13 minutes. Uninterrupted damage, I could probably do roughly a 14 minute pap solo, 8-10 with apple. This is spamming Fury, mind you.

My rough estimate is that even 150m HP shouldn't take me longer than an hour and a half. Anyways, goin home, no more internet. Ttyl!

And ty for offers of help guys![/COLOR]

Apples and even gelts don't really double your damage, for example my Paladin has 163 attack with Warrior Elixirs, 251 with Apples, which is only about 54% extra damage. Gelts are 66% more.

If you're lucky enough to get a summon to stand right behind you and attack you, that's gonna work wonders for your time and it'll protect you from both 1/1 and stun. I couldn't tell you if it's been done or not, however.

I would love to help you get into the altar Bread. I am a JQ hoar after all, and I never get to waste enough Eyes. Good luck btw. You won't be able to save money by buying chews since they are only 20 att, far too weak to be considered. If you want apples I'll give you any I get from apq, cause I really never sell them and idc. Of course I don't apq often, so that's only 2-3 apples. I would also wanna know if I can watch, because I have nothing better to do. Biggrin

Aren't you one of the highest lvl Pure PA Dark? So that would be a very obvious question, my Fiberful Friend.

Well with that damage rate (13 minutes for 24,590,000 HP), you do 1,891,538.46 damage per minute. Each arm set has, on average of the highest HP arm, 31,500,000 HP.

31,500,000*4 for the arms
66,000,000 for zakum 1
88,000,000 for zakum 2
110,000,000 for zakum 3
->390,000,000 HP total
390,000,000/1,891,538.46 =
->206.18 minutes, or 3 hours and 26 minutes.

This is with an apple and assuming you can do the same damage over time to zakum as you can to pap. If I got your exact stats (str, dex, and weapon attack) I could calculate how long it'd take with no interruptions.

Are chews really only 20 attack? They've always said that, but I know that when they came out, they were actually 80 attack.

I don't think so. But if you're going for sheer zakum solo awesomeness, Csenger has got you beat, he soloed zakum at level 119.

1 -- 2
3 -- 4
5 -- 6
7 -- 8

Let's say the arms were numbered in this way. It would be faster in theory to stand on the platform between 3 and 5 and take out 1, 3, and 5. Then you'd stand on 7 and take out 6, 7, and 8. You'd finish off by standing on the platform next to 2 to take out 1 and 2. It'd kill a lot more pots and you may need to being Berserk-specific pots, but it would mean you'd kill from 3 locations and not 4.

Yeah, I was just thinking about this. It would trim off 16 minutes overall, so it might be worth it, and it might not.

Stats with 19 MW
900 Str
135 Dex

Range with 19 MW
3326-7416

With Blood, it goes to
3575-7972

So I get roughly a 250-550 boost for every 12 attack. Gelt will put me at appx 5800-13500, Apple at roughly 5500-12250. I already planned to do what someone above mentioned, and hit 3 arms at a time. Sometimes Fury even hits the top arms from the middle platforms depending on how they swing, so occasionally I'll get some extra damage in as well. I may not be able to hit both top arms at once (left and right top). I'd have to test that. If not, it shouldn't kill my time too much.[/COLOR]

You should attempt to get a purple surfboard before attempting. It be pretty dam easy to scroll with the new gm scrolls out, if you got that kind of money to fork over.

[color="#cc8899"]That's kindof a duh moment. I already have what is equivalent to a 140 or so Zedbug damagewise, though, so I'm ok without one. Anyone who knows me knows I have been looking for one since the notice they were released in gMS. So far, fruitlessly.

Regardless, telling me to find an extremely rare item and pour 200m+ into rare/expensive scrolls for it before soloing Zakum isn't helping.[/COLOR]

Also, internet restored, I'm gonna go for the full solo Saturday evening. I won't be frapsing (who wants to watch 4 hours of me swinging a PA around?), but I'll ss each arm kill and the bodies. Hoping for no random dcs or problems.
