What could a squad of venos accomplish?

I was in a TT2-2 run with 3 other venos once. We did the whole run but skipped the ape. At the end, we got brave and went back to see if we could take him. 2 venos healing the lvl 90 herc, 4 pets doing DD, and 2 venos purging the ape. We had him down to <25% HP when the herc died and our party wiped. I'm still convinced it could be done; in fact, I think a veno squad could probably do... well... YOU tell ME what you think a veno squad could do.

Remember, 6 venos, 6 pets, 6 genies, apo stuff, pots, charms, it's all available. Think big, dream the impossible dream..... what could YOU accomplish with a squad of venos?

OR.... what HAVE you done that would impress us?

    I killed 2-2 ape with a Lvl91 herc with another (lvl88) veno healing - there was no one else in the party. So its possible.

    Yeah, 2-2 Cosmo is not that bad if you're quick with the purges. I've done it with 3 venos (1 spam healing, 2 purging and healing) two or three times.

    I'm surprised you failed with that group. The first time I tried him in 2-2 was when my herc was 80. Didn't know he buffed so didn't think about purging, and another veno and I just spam-healed my herc. We got him to about 25% that time before he killed my herc. Are you sure one of the venos didn't mess up and forget to purge or purged too soon and didn't tell the squad?

    I was able to kill TT2-2 Ape with only RB to help my heal. The other veno in the squad was absolutely worthless. They did not purge nor did they amp. They were afk the whole run pretty much.

    Waste. 3-1 gives **** drops.
    I dont go in with more then 3. Veno+herc, Archer and cleric in the case we die. Skip Djin ofcourse.. lol

    Edit: We did FB69 with one barb, one cleric and 4 venos. DAM that went fast... we didnt tank tho xD

    A squad of 3 venos can take on many, many bosses. Very few they can't kill if they are patient & take their time. I've done TT runs with 3 venos with one herc & we did just fine. Send in the herc, all three heal while 2 take turns throwing in attacks between every few heals. It takes rhythm & having a veno with channeling gear is a big plus.

    Problem is most players seem to be brainwashed & accept that they MUST have a barb & cleric. Most venos also have accepted the lie that they are useless without a herc & even with a herc are just marginal players.

    Until you think outside the box & don't listen to the hate coming from the other classes there will be few opportunities for venos to squad up together. That's sad. Clerics have their own faction. Why not a veno only faction?

    Just had my first anti-veno hate remark from a brand new Assassin... "Venos stink", he said :)))

    Well, pretty much anything that won't one-shot your pet can be done.

    Multi-veno squads are terrifying in TT, on the bosses you can survive.

    If they're good Venos, they can change up to 12 light bulbs at the same time. b:sin

    Oh, and take on a bunch of bosses and other junk like that...
