Wolf's PvE Hero Templates

From DOGWiki

When solo hero/henching, I normally include Master of Whispers, Sousuke, Olias, another ele, Eve, and the two henchman monks. The second ele is replaced with Margrid when needed. The general tactic is to do as much damage over the shortest amount of time (before energy becomes an issue).

• Strength 11 + 1
• Axe Mastery 10 + 1 + 1

• Healing Prayers 1
• Note: This build is extremely effective at grouping aggro. Flag Koss close to enemy groups, call on a caster/ranged target, then hit his Dolyak Signet, all while STANDING FAR BACK. The distance is required because melee AI is programmed to run past to check for other targets. Wait for ALL enemies to lock onto him before attacking with the rest of your group.
