This will work for any class, but it's easiest for clerics 'cause they can heal themselves. I don't know any melee characters that do this, but I have fun with it.
Thanks Jeran for teaching us this, and thanks also to whomever taught you it. . . .
This is a good method if you have low level noobs that die easily, 'cause they won't get hit by Dismal and you won't have to kill anything but Dismal. Just remember to clear Dismal's room first and then aggro him.
Dauthus and I went along with a cleric named JeranTirea who was gonna solo Dismal Shade for someone else. I was a little confused at first, 'cause I thought that Nyte was Jeran. They are both clerics after all . . .
He brought the party to a corner past Dismal's room. Then he tells everyone to stay there, and just kill the mobs that respawn. He's gonna go get Dismal and pull him out of his room and down the hall just a little bit. We can watch but the aoe won't touch us, so he won't have to worry about healing us.
Some problems I've run into when using done this method:
You put the party in their "spot" and yet they still follow you to Dismal . . . .
You tell the cleric to come just close enough to heal you, and he stays put . . .
You aggro Dismal, but he just doesn't seem to wanna follow you or he gets stuck behind the wall . . . .
Sometimes Dismal dies really fast before you can pull him out very far, so then just yell for the rest of the squad to come to you so they'll get credit for the kill.
Overall, it's a pretty usefull method imo. Sometimes onlookers will be like, "hey, that noob pulled Dismal out into the hall . . ."
Sometimes you let the guys hiding (in the corner of Dismal's room, not the guys you are helping) know you are gonna solo Dismal, but they assure you they don't need any help. Little do they know that you are just gonna aggro him away from their entire party and they won't get the kill. . . .
