Tips to beat the Warden?

[k0404]

Hi, I am looking for ways to farm the Warden efficiently (using minimal potions) but being a pure demolitionist at lvl 17 it is pretty hard staying alive and end up dying 2-3 times a fight. Does anyone have any tips or tricks to share?

Since you are a demo without a backup source of healing, movement speed will help avoid alot of his attacks. 15% or so makes a world of difference to me.
There will still be the problem of his ranged vitality attack, and traps. I am usually quite bad at avoiding the aether aoe in the first phase (it think they are aether based), and go in with whatever aether and vitality resistance i have found.

Warden has very low fire resistance, use that to your advantage in your build.

Simple: just kite around the table until your HP fills up then damage him. Kite is to simply run away from any boss/mob to regain HP/skill recharge.

Rinse and repeat.

My second demo was low on DPS with just Fire Strike and its passives. Just invest a few points into Grenado and you'll kill entire rooms and bosses easier.

Run around the room/desk to activate healing. Remember where the Warden places his glyphs and avoid those parts. When his animation for the lightning strike occurs time your movement as to run out of its path. Other then that keep your distance and nuke away.

Yep thats pretty much it, lol I am hopeless avoiding those glyphs >.<

I put a few points in Fire Strike, Grenado, Motar and Mines... Motar is way too slow to hit the Warden and he doesn't stand still long enough in the mines to do the damage... *Sigh wish there was a reset skill point option already :S

i was farming him as a comando in full guard set with maxed blackwater cocktail and menhirs will or whatever its called,was working well but just not killing him fast enough so i switched to occultist with Dreegs evil eye and vile eruption with curse of frailty and im burning him down so fast i dont use 1 single potion

and you can reset skills

Too bad whatever skill points you have invested into the overall attribute cannot be reset. I made the misfortune of investing my secondary class.

Ah that guy... cools thanks for the tip :D

The Warden has pretty high DA. If you can get your OA above 700 he starts to die faster. ~1000 OA gives you x5 crits on the Warden.

[Giblix]

but you'll never get that high OA when you first encounter him. It means you have to be lvl25 with some pretty good gear.
