Tips

• A monster with a lot of HP, most likely a boss, will be required for this challenge. Players might need to wait for later stages in order to find an adequate target. Shrines of the Mountain can help summon stronger Teleporter Bosses early on, although it is more likely that multiple bosses will be spawned instead of an Elite.
  • A possible target is the Alloy Worship UnitAlloy Worship Unit

    Class: Ranged
    Speed: 7 m/s
    Armor: 30. It is incredibly defensive and able to survive multiple stacks of Hemorrhage without dying before the required stacks can be applied.
  • Playing on higher difficulty will make monsters stronger faster, saving some time but requiring more skill.
  • The Artifact of Honor will force all bosses to spawn as Elites, guaranteeing they will have much more health. However, they will be more difficult to survive against.

• In multiplayer, multiple Bandits can work together to stack hemorrhage on a single enemy. Each Bandit player must apply at least one stack of hemorrhage to be eligible for the completion of the challenge.

  Skills have NO cooldowns for a short period after killing an elite.
  Upon killing an elite monster, enter a frenzy for 4s (+4s per stack) where skills have 0.5s cooldowns. also helps with spamming Serrated Dagger, which should give extra time to stack most of the necessary Hemorrhage stacks.
  • This is especially reliable when using the Artifact of Honor.
