Mara run

[Kramer]

I can do this at 60 in horrible gear, right?

Can someone post a BM spec purely for doing this run?

Well, pathfinding, improved mend pet, and bestial swiftness all serve no purpose in here. The rest should be easy to figure out. If you have the 3-piece giantstalker set bonus it's exponentially easier than if you don't. Still doable without it, but IMO much harder.

Yep, a lot of hunters were doing this before MC and even blue drops. I think I upgraded a lot in there but that was MM spec and kiting

When I went BM for farming, I ran with something like:

Pathfinding is helpful for faster runs

[Ohr]

Wouldn't mm with pathfinding, pet armor+hp be better due to higher dps?

[DeeMarie]

Aye but Tinker does a fear and if you're unlucky your pet goes and says hello to other mobs. Yeah it's a really lazy spec :p

[Ohr]

Damn, didn't know.

Awesome DeeMarie, very helpful!

As for my pet, does it matter how i spec it? Should i max NR for princess or is my regular tanky bear going to be fine as is?

[Xylon666Darkstar]

Max armor, heavy nat(but dont need max), rest in stam w/ choice of max claw/bite, growl, dash.

My tank bear just fine on Princess using T1 set bonuses.

Im doing mara runs with the wolf from lbrs, all points in stam n armor.

Tinkerer feared my pet once into mobs so far, just fd then and retry.
It should not happen that often.

Easy going with t1, princess is just a bit of kiting.

How much gold do you guys make in 1h, in one run?

I can finish one run in about 15 min with reset and /camp - average 10g?
So 4 runs -> 40g/h?

When people talk about using healing gear, what do they focus on? Would the best solution be to get a good +healing staff with +healing enchant, or do i need to occupy more slots in my bags for +healing gear?

As a BM this is going pretty good but i'd like to secure that 1/5 time 7+ stack on rotgrip that sometimes kills my pet.
