Lyre220 Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 if you want to get all wrath abilities you need a lot of currency(blue) soul the best method to boost currency soul is here in ashlands go to the circle with 5 spike in north when you first go there you may meet 4 riders kill then you will get about 500 blue souls then jump into the circle with 5 spike once you fall into water just climb up 2 riders will spawn (1 armored 1 none) don't just go for them jump and climb up again another 2 riders spawn again! you can jump any times you want and the riders spawns it sould be a glitch 'cause i try it at most 8 times (it should be 16 riders but i didn't count) then i go fight with them there are some picture borken and delay and i am afraid of freezing after fighting i get more then 2000 blue soul btw, fitght with 10+ riders is exciting i usually jump 5 times and deal with 10 riders you can get 10000 souls in 15 minites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XS Scarab Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Nice find. i think i might try this tonight. this sounds like a good way to boost the 150 horse back kills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Union 360 Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Just found this myself. Works beautifully. Saves a TON of time and much better than the spider room, which only nets around 200-ish souls. This will allow people to buy all the remaining items from Vulgrim much more quickly.

xhunterrrr Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 Funny little problem with this. I jumped like 10 times and there were so many enemies body parts were flickering in and out or disappearing all together. It was funny to watch.

Union 360 Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 10 jumps means 20 guys on-screen plus War and Ruin, so yeah, you'll definitely get glitching. =D Surprised the game didn't freeze on you. I only did 8 jumps once, so 16 guys on-screen, and War got stuck under the ground once. Had to reload a previous save to get out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slim Pizza Boy Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 I was doing 20 jumps and had like 40 ppl. So many that if you get to close to edges of thing you might fall through the map. Also you can get on the mound of dirt near the trail that leads to the spider chick. Right next to all the horseman and spam the Harvester. I got from a 3 or 4 in about 10. So, this is a good weapon boost thing also. 40 ppl on the screen really brings down the frame rate and half of them you can't see!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grummy Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 (edited) Does this work at any time or only when you first go there? Do you have to have got Ruin back first? I got there, didn't meet 4 riders riders just some big armoured bloke summoning a bunch of minions to attack me. Tried dropping back into the water and climbing back up but no spawns n/m I got it.

Odessa Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 What a great find! I actually used a variation of this method to get my Dark Rider achievement and boost some XP. I rode around the edge of the whole Ashland area, then into the one section that twists around where you meet Slitha I believe (but I didn't go through those gates because it's the next mission for me). There are two groups of enemies marching in that area and they respawn once you hit the end and turn around. Then I go back out and then take out the riders (there are four of them when I come out). It's not as quick as jumping in and out but if anyone is looking for the Dark Rider achievement it's an alternative method. Each complete circle (also adding time circling/killing) is almost 5 miles.

This Guy2801 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 Sounds like a good technique theres a similar one i found on youtube which also works well for anyone having trouble [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6Cch1QE--w]YouTube- Darksiders : Soul Farming (560 souls in 85 seconds)[/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never Final Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 im guessing the best way to do this is after you get the level 4 sword so you can kill them quicker. I tried it just after I got ruin and it takes awhile to kill them. But it is a fun method lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImpendIn_Agony Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I'll definitely give this a try when I start the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamstawheel Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Great find man. Was getting ready to fight the final battle lastnight but need two more achievements. I needed to max out my weapons so I needed blue things and needed the kills on the horse. Worked perfect for both in like 5 mins. Would have sucked to have went that far in the game and not get these two late game achievements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjmleicester Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 This is also a god place to get the Horseman achievement (kill 150 demons on horseback) as killing these riders count Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EZYESS57 Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 I used this glitch to help max out my weapons. Spawn multiple horsemen, then get them to follow you. Lead them to the small cave on the edge of the map. It's to the right as you face the hole with the 5 spikes. Once inside you can stand on the ground unlike the sand. There's also a ledge at the back so the horsemen cant reach you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbonelly Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Awesome find, this takes care of pretty much all grinding! XP, Horse kills, souls for moves/weopon upgrades! :woop:should be stickied Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The N Dogg Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Awesome find, this takes care of pretty much all grinding! XP, Horse kills, souls for moves/weopon upgrades! :woop:should be stickied No joke! I came across this thread the night after some ridiculous grinding. This is a great friggin trick that will turn hours of senseless grinding into easily less than an hour.

nanochef Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Am i the only one that thought "Battle Hardened" required you to have all wraith abilities maxed? I thought you had to max all wraith powers lol i practically did max them out i needed lvl 3-4 for the newer wraith powers and decided to finish leveling ym weapons and it unlocked.

DiamondD Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Does anyone know if this has been patched? After I beat the Stygian (that sand worm), I returned to that circular area with the 5 spikes, but I saw no one. Should I return later or has it been patched? When I first started the game up, I got an update, so I'm just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phobzy85 Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Diamond: Go to the wooden area where the riders are usually. It's at the far end, jump down into the water. Then scale back up the demonic spawn and jump back down and repeat. You will see the game stutter ever so slightly. This means it's spawning Riders. It spawns 2 enemies per jump down and scale up the well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiamondD Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 Worked like a charm. I love you guys. I've been grinding this section out for so long, I've created a Clint Eastwood, spaghetti Western backdrop for it and at times when I'd be seconds away from dying, I'd yell "Ride like the wind, Ruin!" before I ran headfirst into one of their blue pillars of death or whatever. Fun times though and this shit is still fun as hell to play. Thanks again guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
