I still need to farm some sp's and I wanted to do it at the nachals :p
My build is wizard/bard, so they wont attack me, but can I kill them fast enough?
And should I use the AoE attacks(like earth nuke)? And would it be safe to use life control? :D

I don't think that AOE attacks will work because you will aggro more than one mob on you and wizzies are not made for that. The terminal rooms are very crowded with mobs and your AOE will probably kill some monsters but also hit a couple of them without killing them.

Nachals are slow to attack, it takes a lot of time before they launch their missiles. The best way is probably by killing them one by one, it should be ok for the normal mobs and the champs but I think that giants will be a problem. The best way is probably by going zerk, start with a spell like fear to immobilise the mob and try to kill it with the maximal damage that you can give.

They also use zombie, so you will need lots of pills to remove the zombie status, and perhaps you can set your autopot rate higher than usual so that a zombie status is first removed by the pills before you start to use a HP pot.

There is a room with a lying buddha, the spawn rate is not so huge as in the final room.

I dont think you could

Cause Nachals have giant, and killing giants at your level is pretty hard ( still hard even if you're 68, unless you've got good items ).

64 stay with the 63-64 earth ghosts, 68 to Nachals if you have good items, or you could skip straight to Niya soldiers ( the lv 71 one ). Niya solders have no giants/champions, so with noise you're 100% safe ( choose a site with no lv 73 Niya Guards, cause this mob have giants ).

GL.

I don't think that you should.

I forgot which kind of nachal...but the red ones will aggro towards you. I asked a higher level friend to party plvl me (as in...I wanted to kill things too...but...at least his extra damage would help ^^), but the red ones would aggro to me if I used tiger's light...and though they are REALLY (INCREDIBLY) slow to start attacking...once they do, the 4 hits might be enough to kill you (since you're a wizard). And to one hit kill them, since you're a much lower level, you'd have to use life control for a one hit kill. I don't think that that's wise.

However, I was at the niya snipers today (lvl 74), and I'm not sure what level the wizard was, but he was one hit killing everything, he just used the fireball nuke (the lowest one with no splash damage)...and hit more than me T_T.

But, the point is, there are no giants, the party mobs are non-aggro, and you can probably one hit them...

Try it out with one of your friend's icing the niya so you can damage him (maybe with bless on) in case if he doesn't get one hit. You will DEFINITELY be able to one hit at 68...DEFINITELY, probably without life control, to one hit at 72...

Wait until then would be my advice =/
