Gear for sure. Maybe a few more AA? Remember that sleeper was the 2 man exclusive content for its time. So its not something you will be able to do with shit gear. For example my pally/ber/mnk barely gets damaged in the sleeper fight anymore almost fully BIS PoP with 3500AA. I dont even have to heal, the PoP sword keeps me healed. If youre SSF or trying to keep it that way, keep farming NTOV and try to unlock Luclin. Vex thal is pretty EZ, jsut boring, and you will get lots of upgrades there. YOu will have to unlock Vex Thal by doing the Luclin progression into POP. Also your rogue skips make Vex trivial, just kill bosses and collect loots. And then you can work on your POP progression too once unlocked by doing the luclin progression which is pretty EZ.
Nice, thanks. Yeah I figure it's real gear dependent. I didn't know sleeper was 2 man when velious was out though so it's not surprising i'm struggling with kunark / velious loot.

So no special strat then, just kill the add warders as they pop?

There is one add at 75%, could be any of the warders or the ancients. Then at 25% you need to burn sleeper as fast as you can because you have 1 min until like 6-8 adds spawn. So save your burn until then.

    • Pet Illusions survive zoning
    • Petamorph wands can target individual pets.
      Tradeskills
    • There is now a higher minimum chance to skill-up when performing a tradeskill combine.

yeah wiped to gimped zeb at 8% on my first solo attempt. still not a cakewalk, and the dps check is going to weed out quite a few class compositions, but it's certainly more viable for me than 4/4 seru was during luclin (albeit that was before dru/heal/dot buffs).

two enchanted augs as loot for me, and some other solo's have gotten legendaries/the vortex, so the loot isn't as gimped like 1-3/4 seru.
