Ehem....

**AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!**

Okay now that's out of my system, let's talk about gnomer!

This made shadowfang keep look like a kitten by difficulty standards. Everything in here is mechanical, so that means they're prone to aggro loss, immune to taunts, and more. So which means I had to get REAAAALLLYY creative in some parts.

**Trash:** This place is filled top to bottom, you can spend an eternity here fighting...Oooorrr you can hug the walls to the right side of tunnels and have enemies unable to touch you. I came into this place several times, so eventually I was just finding ways to skip the packs.

# Viscous Fallout/Electrocutioner 6000

Easy, auto attack target dummy.

# Crowd Pummeler 9-60

This is the first guy I actually had to run from originally, I thought he was impossible with the sudden aggro drop and couldn't be re-aggrod by charles....But then I got creative. While he is immune to aggro, he's not immune to slows and stuns. So I spun him in circles in his hallway till he eventually died.

# Mekgineer Thermaplugg

I would've had a video on this place days ago, but I was at a loss of how to kill Thermaplugg for a while. He endlessly spawns bombs, he hits way too hard for charles to tank, and he has aggro loss as well alongside an immunity to CC. For a while, I thought he was impossible.

Then I thought about something during a panic reset. He can't out run Aspect of the cheetah.

Thermaplugg runs at 20% movement speed bonus while cheetah runs at 30% bonus. Doesn't sound like a lot, but it's just enough to keep a safe distance between me and him. The problem you run into is you now have to rely on mana to keep aggro on him. If you wait too long in shots, he'll reset.

So rank 1 arcane shot saves me in this scenario alongside a bracer from Electrocutioner 6000 that helps regen my mana.

So now we got the kite strategy down....Which leaves the bombs. Oh god the bombs. The bombs could've ended me so many times with how many times they'll forget I exist, sit at the path of my kiting, and just wait to kill me. So sometimes i'd just switch to hawk and tank the bomb before switching back to cheetah.

Charles had to be on the side line for this one and be replaced with Sullivan, while tanky, he aint fast. So I wanted all the dmg I could get on him.

  
Overall? 10/10 experience.
