This is a 1h30-2h ride, depends on what time you have to invest in the week days!
Ideally you will make your game at XX:55 or XX:25 (more or less depending on how much the area takes you to clear would be XX:15 or so for me for tombs), then from XX:00 to XX:05 (or 30-35) you clear second TZ, then look up which TZ will come next, and TZ an Act where no TZ has already been done. From XX:05 to XX:30 you start clearing this act, then go to the new (3rd) current TZ, then go back to clearing the TZ Act. If you are really slow you might even get 4th TZ to pop before or right after you finished this Act.

Lets emphasize the fact that with this Herald thing, Act 4 is really a shitty Act to Terrorize, and Act 1 seems like the best to TZ. I havent made the count but I think it has the most areas and most likely also the most uniques/champs.

I play single player so the first 4-6 tz / first 3 heralds are the entry cost so 1-2hour is basically 0 progress

I drew ire 5 times in about 20 minutes and then over the next 1-2 hours another 7 times. So around 12 total for a game. One of the Heralds exploded and 1 shot my merc who had over 2k hp. Luckily my HC warlord is still kicking with no BO

I play P1 online and dont really see the difference between our experiences except for the fact you can turn on P7

have to kill fast

the difference is your first 3 heralds can drop sunder and mine cant.. you can farm only the current tz and get sunders while thats just not possible in single player cus u have to spawn 4 heralds...


world of difference

I get 15-18 pretty much all the time. The worst I've had was 12, I think.
I've done about 10 full game clears now.

ive had 15 no drop haha

Oh yeah didnt think about this one.
I previously thought about the fact you can P7 helps a lot with drop rates which most likely is the reason of this difference.
But I also think this stacking mechanic is shit whether it is on P1 or P8, online or offline.

Yes, they can be real dangerous depending on the auras and their base damage.
Yesterday, I tele'd right into a t5 pack of those frenzy axe bull guys in WSK. They had fana or conc and a nearby elite pack had also amped me.
Never used 16 juvs so fast lmao.
