Help With Key Farming

So lately Ive been trying to find ways to make some money and get some good gear, and one of the things Ive come up with is key finding. I'm just wondering if anyone out there has a good build for farming keys thats cheap and efficient, preferably. Any input or tips on how to farm keys would be greatly appreciated.
 
Re: Help With Key Farming

The best method is to farm destruction keys from Nith as its quick.
But you will need a natures peace ring to stop niths exploding bodies trick

best character is a enigma hammerdin. but forget that

A sorc is better just use a good merc to kill the immunes.


The others are far easier but are harder to find
 
Re: Help With Key Farming

well if i remember correctly natures peace wont work for ur mercs kills so be careful of that.
 
Re: Help With Key Farming

see i have a tals set meteorb sorc, since tals set is cheap lol, but i get dominated by nithalak, if he manages to hit me with one corpse explosion im basically dead, right now im working on getting a phoenix shield on her to take care of the corpses, but again 4hrs that i dont have lol, so the natures peace ring seems like a really good alternative, thanks, didnt even think of that
 
Re: Help With Key Farming

well i dont have any means of takin care of corpses, what i do is just keep away from nihla while i spam meteors at him, my firesorc cant beat him if he spawns with fireimmunity though. Also while i spam, my merc is tankin for me so be careful he aint killing anything as that cud result in ce.
 
Re: Help With Key Farming

good point about the merc for corpse explosion. this is also true of monster that explode by themselve
 
Re: Help With Key Farming

i have meteor and frozen orb so i dont really have to worry about immunities on monsters and unless nithalak spawns with fire/ice immune im good, the only trouble im getting is the corpses and i dont really have to worry about my merc killing much, he has a crappy insight on him, the only reason i keep him around is for that lol, and his holy freeze aura of course
 
Re: Help With Key Farming

well get a natures peace ring as duslon suggested, afaik they arent very pricey
 
Re: Help With Key Farming

in nith runs u would die mostly because of minions swarming u, not corpse explosion.

get some dr/mdr/%dr items, dont forget naturespeace, just run/tele in nith temple, ignore everything, then jump on nith and make final blow.

then exit and make new game:D

barbs and sins make good nith runners, also there is a guide here for nith running, someone named mephistop... guy maked it, search for nith guide in forums.

for countess and summoner, best is a teleing sorc (who doesnot), no need for tactics here....
 
Re: Help With Key Farming

this is how i do it:

countess: follow the left wall, usually shorter, just TP through till u're at lvl5. After that, just TP into her room straight from the big room, don't go in the hallway.
TP against a wall, cast meteor right in front of u, then spam static field.
meteor drops, all her minions die (i'm lvl 88 with full tal's, no skillers or anything)
tp to countess, static till she's half dead, merc can do the rest in 5 seconds (mine carries a not-so-good-insight)


for summoner:
just tp till you find the right path, when you reach his platform, tp into one of the corners, cast orb, tp to another corner, cast orb again. This usually kills him (again, full tal's, lvl 17-ish CM, nothing special)

now, for nihla:
make sure you know the maps from the above level, so you don't waste any time there.
once in the right level (forgot name), just tp till you find where he is. If there's vipers there, best just leave the game (bigger chance of dying, i trie them sometimes and die 1/3 times or so)
TP against a wall somewhere, but make sure you can still see nihla (or just NOT see him but you see the platform where he stands). Then just spam meteor while your merc tanks the mobs
if there's a lot of ranged units (skele archers etc) you might wanna:
-cast meteor
-tp
-cast meteor
-tp
etc till he's dead
4-5 meteors usually kill him
after he's dead, press alt, look for keys, runes and charms
if any are there, tele to his place, pick up fast, tele out and tp to town
if none are, just tele out and tp to town.
