How to complete rebirth 100% of the time easy and cheap

Apoth: pretty much useless cuz you can't use it during dragon's breath. still bring like 1 or 2 dew of lunar protection for the double waves( zhen skill takes one spark so its easy to reset it up again if needed)

pretty much you will be tanking most of the time after the 3rd wave (other than bosses) so bring a few pots and use earth barrier before each round.
when the boss comes you will be farming chest or killing mob for beans(beans give aura)
in the later waves you HAVE to pay attention to your hp because they WILL **** you....fast if you don't pot and use genie correctly.
its nice to have a spark pot too just in case your aoe gets cancel or you died.

Make sure your aoe range is covering the archers too just in case they pull agro you can pull it back
and the only boss they should be able to kill is the last boss cuz his aoe HURTS. to prevent just pot and stay in the range of the auras.

hopefully i didn't forget anything scratch

Archer part is kinda easy though is the most costly i think.
Some general info first that havesnt been mentioned.We had some difficult time getting team for it cause noone wanted to invest in it.
Dont expect to finish it if people dont invest loads of money at the begining.
Rebirths are expensive to ALL members in a different ways and good sharp bm is the most important role.
Get a bm with high level aoe skills -preferably maxed- and a decent hp.Bms with low level aoes are simply USELESS cause they cant get agroo from dds.

Archers must get their barrage of arrows to at least 6+ and sharpened to max if possible.Archer with level 1 barrage is simply not needed.
Your cost at mp charm is something arounf 350k and 450k and depends on your mana pool and aura setting and the cost of hp charm is around 100k-200k depends also on your
hp and aura setting.
By third stage we have mp2 which helps u preserve a tick from your charm every 2 mp charm ticks(two ticks from charm - one from aura).Thats 33% charm saving kinda cool(one free charm every two Very Happy)
Going for higher mp aura doesnt help cause of lack of mana pool so no point in getting it.
For archer build i think all will work though myself and calixta are both pure dex archers with around 5k hp fully buffed.

For first stage just before the second wave dies both archers go to do quests.You can do one quest till boss arrives and one more while cleric tanks boss and still have time
for like 6-7 chests.That way all quests are done after stage one(2 for each archer 2 for bm 2 for barb).

At second stage one archer stays with the party and the other one goes for the chests at the far back room(second room after those stairs).U should be able to gather almost all chests from far back room by the time boss arrives, all of the chests on the room after the stairs and some on the cliff (by the stairs) by the time u need to go back to kill boss.

At the third stage the archer that stayed with group goes to gather chests and kill mobs and the archer that gathered chests goes for barrage(this way u kinda split the charm cost with your fellow archer)
Archer should now gather the remaining chests.

At later stages archers stay with team, target the eye and barrages so its easy but costly work from now on.As it has been mentioned have red and purple pots on as they could come handy.
There are some mobs that mana drain at various times so if ur mana pool is low (1.8k mp right now) be aware u might need mana pots too.

For last boss that does tons of dmg.Use winged shell and wings of grace in rotation to avoid charms ticks at max range.Chi is not an issue cause of aura.

I have been experimenting with mp gear (so that i can minize the cost of rebirths)results are inconclusive yet.If u are new to rebirth dont even try with mp gear cause u loose some hp(i go from 5.1k to 4k hp and from 1.8k to 3.5k mp) and some attack(around 1.5 less dmg from barrage).Get it done for like 3-4 times and start experimenting after that.
I will try to update at some point wiht my results and calculations for the math lover such as me out there.

Some insight on rebirth.
1)Any team can do it.We have done it -except from the classic squad- with 2 ea 2 bm ep and barb and cause of mage got teleported outside we have finished it with 5 people too!
In my experience two eps squad is tougher than other squads to complete though it might be better at lower levels.

2)Full squad bean bonus is uselless imo.It gives u an advantage at the begining which is not so important cause it is allready kinda easy for the first five stages.
We have been getting to stage 5 from the first-second time we tried it and to get after that we needed like 20 failed tries.
And after the 6-7 stage all usefull auras(hp attack) are maxed other auras are at a satisfactory level and u dont rly care what to do with beans.
One good thing with squads with veno though is parasitic nova cause it can give bm and barb time to coooldown their skills and regain agroo from mobs.

3)Chi aura is kinda usefull if for some reason dds die it helps setting aoe back far quicker.Mp aura let it to level 2 for eas.(mg-cleric dont loose mana from level 1 mp aura allready)
About def aura with level 1 def aura i have like 65% dmg reduction with level 5 74%.So it doesnt make any serious difference for ha and la.Though if u have cleric or mg that is not la get it to level 2 at some point.

4)For squad without mage:
One archer has to stay at first stage to aoe.Except if squad is bonus squad the eye doesnt apperars yet so u have nothing to target.What archer does is turn faction protection off,leave the party,target bm with barrage, bm asap invites him back and now u have a moving barrage of arrows Very Happy.Be aware that bm MUST stay inside archers range or barrage will cancel.After stage one everything goes to normal.

5)For people that have never done it will take some failures to acquaint with it.Just be patient and get people that are willing to spend their time and coins to get it done.


EP part, credits go to Gin

1) You need to have 3,5k hp+, the more hp the better. it doesnt matter how you get the hp (refine gear, high grade shard, vit) you just need it.

2) You need to have maxed ironheart, lvl 5 + purify, blue bubble, maxed debuff are nice to have but not that important, if the time to kill the bosss runs low red bubble is
usefull also

3) For the first tries bring alot hp pot your lvl and a few violett pot; genie skill: tree of protection, cauterize/bloodclot for arcane; hp charm

4) You are not allowed to go afk


With this setup your role is to keep to blue bubble alive. the bubble needs to be in range from atleast 1 aoe. Best place is a little behind the eye. Try to time the bubble heal with the aura heal so that not both heal come at the same time often.

You only break the aoe when the bosses come. You will tank the 1 boss solo ( 1-2 iron, debuff,spark, atk till your hp drop and go from start again). While doing that you need to watch time (15min for each boss to kill). Usally there will be a message when 10/ 5 min left but that appears not every time. 1 Squad member needs to track the mine with a clock to be safe.

After the bosss dead all rebuff. Then you set up the bubble again till next boss. Some bosses will debuff, dot etc so you need to purify the barb, maybe yourself when you have a low hp pool.

If you take damage while blue bubble use pots, genie skill. Spam then. Do anything you can to not die. Aslong the bb and 1 aoe alive you can easily make it. If you die rebuff yourself, then go back and start heal the squad member who has the most agro/ need heal the most till you get 2 spark for bb. if you get atacked by a mob tell your squad, so that the bm/barb knows that and can get the mob away.

Care for the last boss since his aoe really hurt (first time i died alot at this boss lol). Use plume shield to reduce dmg taken.

Thats basicly all

I must disagree with your level req for dragon's breath. Level 1 suffices just fine and people complete it all the time with it.

Lvl 5+ is suggested and works for sure. U want to deal as many dmg as many u can, and not even lvl5 will eat ur charm after auras r on.

U may do it with lvl1 too... as we sad thats a standard, not the only way.

bump

10 chars required

Why dont u guys have the BM do the running quest? We are by far the fastest. 5 m/s normal speed (mostly 5.2 cause of proud plate of corsaire everyone has) plus we have 3! speed skills: cloudsprint, will of the bodhisatva and Holy path. I can complete all 8 running quests before halfway second stage.

discuss.

U can do it that way too. When we first started doing rebirth we tryed that, and found out that having BM on site is easier for everyone, and we can just do the quests anyway.

BUT that works also, watever is better for u. Also we arent that fast, we are just slightly faster than a barb :P

first of all, I have a veno in stead of one of the archers, because they are really fast at collecting beans from mobs and chests. second, I do the runs (I am a BM as you can see in the pavatar) Cloud Sprint, WIll of the Bodhisatva and holy path keep me almost constantly moving at around 9.5-15 m/sec holy path being the one of 15 m/sec. an advice for BM's: use marrows to generate chi so that you don't rely on the veno to pass you chi. third, of course you are gonna burn a lot of charm if you level the auras gradually. max HP reduces big time the HP charm burn of most of the squad, hence I get it ASAP, for example. and fourth, if you have a rainbow squad (all 6 classes in a squad) you get bonus beans in the start, thing that doesn't happen if you have two of one class

as i sad its one way of cpmpleteing it, that works for sure, its easy, cheap, and u never fail without dc basically.

u can do it other ways, which has pros and cons.. we invented this without any help or guide from outside.
