Talk:Cultist Milthuran

Skills confirmed with SoC. (T/C) 13:36, 19 May 2006 (CDT)

It's possible to kill this boss in about 20 seconds with only 2 henchmen (Tank and Healer), using Backfire, Empathy and Spiteful Spirit.. and other such skills. Surprised ANet put this boss so close to the entrance of Aurios! Not sure if this is appropriate info for article, if someone else thinks it is, put it in. --Immure 09:28, 20 July 2006 (CDT)

This Boss is solo farmeble for the build contact me on my talk -- Tomoko


 * It's no secret. Solo Milthuran by pulling his group back near the Luxon res shrine. The priest there has more than enough power to keep you healed while you dispatch the boss and his henchies. -Gares 13:33, 1 August 2006 (CDT)


 * I believe the ease with which you can solo him is well offset however by his abysmal drop rates. I've killed him 150 times (I'm keeping count) attempting to get Milthuran's Staff. So far I've looted one gold, three purples, five scrolls, and more cloth than I can count - but no staff. That averages to a 3.3% chance of a scroll, a 2% chance of a purple item, a 0.7% chance of a gold item and an even lower chance of a green. Not really the stuff farming is made of. -- Sunyavadin 05:44, 7 August 2006 (BST)


 * I haven't a clue about this area yet but since it appears to me that he is near the entrance and easy to kill immediately upon zoning in, it might not be surprising that he has poor drop rates. He will have such drop rates if he's the first or among the first things you kill. That, and maybe the npcs are stealing your loot (if you use them). --Vortexsam 23:49, 6 August 2006 (CDT)


 * Nope, he's not a boss who needs henchies to kill, just run in, hit him with Spiteful Spirit, Insidious Parasite, Suffering, Defile Enchantments, and Desecrate Enchantments, in that order, and he's often dead before you reach the end of the combo. I was pointing out, as you observed, that his proximity to the entrance likely accounts for his poor drop rates in order to prevent farming of such an easy target. -- Sunyavadin 05:51, 7 August 2006 (BST)
 * it only took me maybe 10 times, tops, to get a staff. --Honorable Sarah [[image:Honorable_Icon.gif]] 00:27, 7 August 2006 (CDT)
 * I got Sskai's sword on the first go, the next 20 runs didn't give anything though >< &mdash; Skuld 00:29, 7 August 2006 (CDT)
