	So I still need Buying time 1200e, Pic Port 1500n, labor shortage 800n, shortcuts 3000e (or labor shortage 1500e if someone knows it that well), and Colossal Crystals 600n/1200e. I plan to do as many challenges as my psyche can handle on sunday. I am horrible at them, I hate them, and mocking pugs is starting to get boring as the return rate is low. If anyone has really good solo strats, I would love to hear them. I am thickheaded so you might have to break it down retarded like. If anyone wants to join, by all means. I plan to start before 12 ast, but I might start at or a little after. That is 4est for you noobs. I might be grumpy, the moron who invented challenges should be tortured for several days then have their genitals forced down their throat.

	I ran around colossal crystals today to figure it out a bit. I'd much rather run all of those with non-pugs for sure.

	If you're still on lateish, say 9 pm est I can fill your need to mock someone. Plus you hearing 5 hours of kobolds has to balance out some sort of inhumanity that happened somewhere. I'm on late because my wife and I are breeders and have 2 kids five and under in the house. DDO when more than zero are awake may result in my dick being forcibly removed from my body. On colossal crystals using rest's guide is a big help. Even my sorry ass can get 400 on non bonus times solo. Maybe Google can translate it into tiefling for you. Picture portals is about speed and damage output. We spent too much time killing trash we should have gathered up and nuked. Killing the girlfriend would have added at least 100+ mats. Someone switching to a nuker would be good. Fat.

	Instant asshole. Just add alcohol.

	I solo all of them on my Soul - I wouldn't say I'm good at them (my return rate is certainly poorer than Rest's) but I don't need to involve PUGGlewuggles - although a second person to help with clearing / pathing /pulling up torches is handy is the lava cave and extraplanar dungeon ones. The island ones I just upgrade the small extractors and use turrets - lower hassle than trying to defend the larger ones I think. Extraplanar ones check and use SW then SE if SW is shit (and to top up on crystals after). Just don't forget to be back for the Maralith dropping as she plays merry hell with kobolds. I stick my battlecat in the middle on active to cope with most of the other mobs, just come back to help her deal with the rakshasa and the hag. Rushmore's go for the assassin then up the back passage to find the girlfriend (I'm sure that's deliberate, lol). I actually find them more palatable now I'm limited to the free tokens (not buying the pack at that price) and can only do so much a day.

	I run yesterday colosal with a friend. I was on my gimped bard (no, not gimped because bard, gimped because of me and the /rogue/arti splash) and I asked how to help him. He was on his monk and very self-sufficiently he just replied "just bring me the torches when I need them, I will put the teleporter and clear the way". 2 min. later...ding ...monk died from a Ki intoxication. I went in his rescue...yes...ding... we manage to resurrect (hireling) manage to get one crystal ding ding *kobold dead" ....we are so uber. By the way, Epoch, now that I remember, this friend is also spaniard, but his father was one of the first guys programming computers at all and was working for many years in the US, he speaks "american" perfectly. He was several times (like 22-25 years ago) in Alaska, visiting some friends there. The Dad of the family he was visiting was in the military, he was able to take a military flight to alaska as a civilian. Who knows...maybe he punched you in the face

	Even with a good strategy and a decent team, I think that there are some challenges that will get you more materials per hour from turning in another ingredient 2-for-1 instead of running the "correct" challenge.

They would say stuff like their scores were around 900 and generated 125 Epic tokens a week. All I got out of their jabber: Just do all your torching East and SE, most stuff can be level drained, and have a FvS who can take care of the Marilith easily.

If you're doing epic Buying Time, and you just want the mats, you can solo it easily. Don't even bother killing the Marilith, just set up your torch lines and kite her at the end. Buying Time and Labor Shortage are both quite easy to solo if you are looking for mats and not XP.

	Epic shortcuts is really easy if you solo it Even on a level 1 running it at 20/25. The extractors have so much hp that it takes minutes for monsters to kill them
