    There is videos in youtube showing the world boss battles. Just type in the name of the boss and pwi or perfect world after it.

    Usually a 85+ barb can tank them.. set up BB and have 3-5 clerics on him. For certain bosses mages can tank too b:chuckle

    For some archers are best choice. Barbs die fast against SoulHunter.

    Lol for archer. Soulhunter is a weakling. I soloed him in the 50s, it just takes a ton of time. He doesn't hit ranged, only lots of debuffs.

    But yeah, you need barb to tank wbs, usually with a cleric in bb for the damage reduction and other clerics for healing.

    It took a level 9x nix veno 2+/3 hours to solo kill him, and thats with an archer's sharp to start. Onces his stun kicks in its almost impossible to revive pet (without pots) once its dead. So you'll probably need multiple pets if you don't time the damage right. With the stuns/slow, you'll at the most be able to get in 1-2 attacks before being stunned. So basically, you would have to sit there for 6 hours stright to solo kill soul hunter. Since if you leave, the pet is gonna take aggro and die. And without a pet, you might just as well get a feather and start to tickle him.

    To top it off, soul hunter is one of the most ksed bosses. So unless your entire sever sucked ****, i doubt you'll be able to sit there undistrubed for 6 hours.

    You'd be surprised how people in Sanctuary don't think Soulhunter is worth the effort. Which, in all honesty, it's probably not. And yes, some people do come by once in a while, and they... kinda helps out.b:chuckle

    Ancient Spearman fading, with magical drops. We kill him pretty daily. He's pretty easy, if you know his tricks.

    spearman071109.png

    We tested sword tamer with 1 group, just to get an idea of how much damage he does. He's doable, and require patiences. We could keep our barb alive with 4-5 clerics, however the problem was that melee people weren't allowed to attack. He had a pbaoe that would 1-2 shot our melee characters. So we stopped our attack and suggest he was not worth doing. Then we went on to test the other WB's.

    W/out BB? I seen 90s barbs get 2 shotted by avalanche area WBs b:chuckle
    With BB, they last like any other TT boss.

    Depending on aoe and debuffs the WB does you can do them with minimal amount of pple. ex) Shadowdoll. You can do that with 7 pple or so veno less.

    Took me 12 at 70 or something, but I only had a herc not a nix. It's not hard to keep a pet from dying, and even if it does... channeling gear is sufficient to revive a pet (unless you're really low level)

    hiding behind alot of those bosses as they only have frontal AOEs helps too, same with cenimnator

    Of course its not hard to keep a pet from dying, you just need to be watching the screen. With the stuns, there is only a small window every 3-4 minutes for you to revive a pet. Sometimes its just faster to run out of its stun range to revive a pet. But if you are soloing, thats not really a option.

    For soul hunter there are really only 2 effective dds (archers and nixes). casting class have long chan time and will get stunned (interrupted) more often then not. melee class aren't really the best of choices as they aren't really great dds (and of course they tend to die if they take aggro). i have been in a party of 2 9x arch and 1 8x veno that manage to out dd and claim soul hunter from 2 party of mixed 8xes (technically we're only competiting against the stronger party).

    Well it costs a lot more than a couple of mil normally on harshlands, the server is still young as far as I know there are only 3 bless hercs so far. But if it costs 2 mil on HT, why not get it and then just sell a ton of g9s, profit ;D

    Sad thing is all low-maned WB has a veno with herc or nix in the squad. I'd really want to see a 10man or less done veno less. That would require some good concentration and skill than 4 venos all healing one herc.... You gotta admit herc is used cause its way easier to maintain as tank, than a barb with way more dmg. Nobody stupid would use it if it was harder than barb.
