lineupofpeace 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2017 I know they nerfed a lot of other gold farming methods (LP, DM, etc.) - was Mara included? I used to be able to farm Mara without a problem - the last few times I've been getting wrecked by Princess (the boulder throws are so frequent I can't even get her down to <50% health without needing to pot). Maybe it's just RNG? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pwnana 1 Report post Posted April 9, 2017 Both Princess and the Croc are more risky, altho doable, and take far longer than just doing the Goblin which is fast and easy. Always found it pretty pointless to waste time messing around with them so can't really say if they were buffed or not but sounds like RNG to me. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DKD420 0 Report post Posted April 10, 2017 Kite Princess and you have no problems. Goblin can fear your pet in trash and rotgrip does a lot of dmg. so princess is most easy. But takes the most time. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xylon666Darkstar 4 Report post Posted April 11, 2017 Kill them just fine. Be sure to outrange Princess boulder, recall pet away whenever she farts, send back in right before it ends so she doesn't move. Pull her with aimed shot + multi shot/auto shot weave initial, and into an immo trap. Do same with rotgrip, and use Scorpid Sting for croc to reduce damage done to you/pet and -slight- armor reduc from agi removed. I clear them just fine as 0/31/20 using Lupos thats armor/nature resist focused. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alternatively you can have max nature resist on the pet and not have to worry about recalling it when Princess' farts or really during the entire fight if you're BM. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xylon666Darkstar 4 Report post Posted April 11, 2017 Pet resists the fart enough at 60. Better off just maxing armor cus her attacks will hit more than the fart being resisted + moving away just negates both, anyway. It saves time/mana spent healing pet, more mana spent DPSing Princess. You know. Efficiency. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raziya 11 Report post Posted April 11, 2017 She has indeed been buffed. She has Windfury now, meaning she can strike thrice in an instant. To counter this, I pull my pet out every Dust Cloud, not just when it's low. Not only because Dust Cloud can deal damage, but she will strike in melee or throw boulders even while Dust Cloud is going. Less damage taken, less mending needs to be done. I also do a little bit of kiting around her arena, but not very much. Boulders are RNG and can happen really often or not at all, so if you do run in to too many boulders, try and run away from Princess, feign and eat, or bandage, but leave your pet out so she doesn't totally reset. She should catch up after you've recuperated a bit. 7/31/13 RDD Powerhouse spec at the moment. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shaze 1 Report post Posted April 11, 2017 I don't have problem soloing either Princess or Rockgrip, but I'm prebis/T1 gear and using Lupos. With worse gear i reccomend kiting princess, it takes longer, but as long as you know what you are doing, it's hard to screw up. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ragward 2 Report post Posted April 19, 2017 As a BM spec pre raid bis hunter , goblin sometimes uses fear but beastial wrath takes care of that , I use a durotar tiger on princess with maximum armour and 90 NR , It takes me around 3 dustclouds then I heal the pet to full and do another 3 and she is dead , Rotgrip is also similar just using autoshot / bestial wrath and serpent sting and he dies in roughly 20-30 seconds. I have timed my runs currently I have it down to 11-12 minutes per run , with better gear im sure you can get this down to 9-10 minutes a run for the 3 bosses. I havent found any problems doing any of the bosses , But if you are MM spec you will have issues BM is HIGHLY recommended for farming mara. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am doing similar run times with 20/31/0 spec, but my 3 piece T1 helps a lot with mana issues on princess. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ragward 2 Report post Posted April 25, 2017 I dont have any mana issues on princess , what i do is send my pet in wait till pet is roughly around 1khp then kite away from the princess heal pet to full send back in dps the boss more etc repeat and continue princess roughly takes me 4minutes , im sure with more gear this is reduced significantly. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
