Cynic

I find it kinda funny he doesn't show how he splits the nictuses, as i'm pretty certain there's some exploit involved in doing so.

Still quite the feat tho.

Well he mentioned the agro cap, so if he had 16 mobs on him then only one from the group would follow. But then holding them at the right range while foes start to die looks the hard part

They were appropriately appalled

They're now putting it all together.

Eight legs, one body, silk,

I like the idea of brining 15 minions around with you everywhere you go, would work well for my DB/WP too. Though there isn't much chance I will try the ITF solo.

Also he doesn't mention the rest of the ITF (Unless I missed it), I am pretty sure an invuln would find the cyst mission quite hard.

Still it nicely lays waste to the 'nerf romulus' crowd.

I would probably give this a try if I actually had the 6 hours (or more, cant remember how long it took for Nihilii) to do this.

Anyways, a very nice achievement!

Even with the aggro cap. How did he manage to move the nictus? they refuse to aggro when you attack em.

In sessions? like he did the ITF 4 times and soloed each of the nictus each time while his team did the other three at the time??

I believe TRT means he did it in, say, 4 parts of which each took 1h30min (assuming it took 6h total).

(Is the trophy thingy a bit pretentious for a topic icon ? I don't care, I'm happy. )

I finished the ITF as a solo DB/inv scrapper, without inspirations. You can see my alt teamed, but he's way out of range and I didn't use him at all (except for many, many ressurections after failed attempts). I also used inspirations between the AV fights, because who cares about the cannon fodder ?

This is a repost from my DB/Inv thread (if you're wondering about my build, it's over there).

Romulus Augustus

His defense debuffs forced me to jump around when I was hit twice in a row. Other than that, it was fine.

ITF Requiem

Unlike Unai Kemen's Requiem, he's strong, using dark melee/dark blast powers.

Summoning Nictus

The hardest part about this fight was aggroing the specific Nictus I wanted and Romulus at range, while not alerting the other two Nictus (Nictii? Eh, I'm going to go with Nictus anyway), as I can't handle the autohit Nictus and Romulus at the same time. I played with the aggro cap to get the Nictus I wanted, after that there's a very specific range at which Romulus will aggro but his Nictus remain passive, regardless if you're at the aggro cap or not.
It took a lot of trial and error.
