Thread: Killing Drostan As Sin

  1. #1

    Default Killing Drostan As Sin

    Is there a way to kill Drostan in DMH? So far I am unable to defeat his army of rats. I can kill the first wave with Avatar running but then he starts casting the rats spell again after a while! Can the rats spell be interrupted? Please let me know how you have defeated Drostan as Sin.
    Thanks

    Of course, Slith was likely in superb gear while writing that guide.

    Save your DWW for when they spawn. They die easily but for a single target class like sin can be a headache. I'd go DWW for first wave, Aod for second, DWW should be back up by third. If you need something by wave four, maybe spec dull pain and on a sin if you can't burn him down by then you may need to reevaluate your rotations.

    I did it in full Brittle Blade. Never learned the intended mechanic so I am afraid I won't be helping here much.

    Four waves of rats?? Seems like a long time to kill that boss. Unfortunately both Isle of Iron Statues (spider) and Dead Mans Hand (Drostan) more or less requires you to spec Avatar of Death to leech life and survive.

    I just killed Drostan (was lucky to get him I guess). For start just plant GC+SS on him, SDS+Dart, SS9, wait for rats, run behind him, activate AoD and just nuke rats and Drostan.

    That was my point. A sin in blues or t1 purples should be able to burn droston within 3 waves of rats cycling the bomb and swift strikes using DWW and AoD to survive. If they go beyond 4 waves there is something wrong with the rotation.

    When he casts his rat minions, jump on top of the catapult at the far end of the ship, most rats will fall back to him. Jump down kill a couple rats then work on droston. Rinse, repeat.

    If you start taking too much damage, hide behind the catapult to break line of sight - this can also be used to reposition Droston.

    If you don't play with DWW/GB (and AoD eventually) it is almost impossible except if you exploit out the boss (SDS + lotus dart, die, rez, the boss don't reset by the dot, run back to the ship, from the darkness, finish him).

    Got decent gear on my sin, mostly khitai but two blues, and I killed Drostan this morning halfway through the cast of "Cheating rat".

    I kill him relatively easy (2-3 waves of rats) with full BB gear and T1 daggers. Just go behind of boss and stick your back on the door in order not to get flanked by rats. I use avatar of death when my health is about 50% + whirling at rats and I full health right away.
