Improving my range for zak
I have always wanted to kill zakum. Since the last two years of school are starting I want to get this done before school starts for real.
I am level 151 with maxed ss, afa, hm. Freeze standing is stuck at level 10. Overswing is at 10 but it can go to 30.All link skills can be given to my Aran.
Will of alliance and the skill from silent crusade has been gotten.
I can get all cures from crimson wood so that is fine.
My range buffed is just under 30k.
I will also be duoing with my brother. He is a level 140 hero with intrepid and afa maxed.
So should I be fine for a 15-30 minute zakum run?
If not how much more range would I need to do so?

Is there anything important I need to remember for zakum?
Thanks for your time.

You could solo zak with your current equips just fine!
My first solo was at 147 and my range was about 34k buffed in about 30 mins.
I even had freeze standing at like 8 so you should take about the same time or a bit more.
[quote=RomneyUS]I am actually an Aran myself. I can tell you...buy another polearm. I know I am quite a higher level than you but your Polearm isnt very good. I use a hellslayer that has 116 dmg. It raised my dmg by A LOT. Also, if you want to survive without using barely any pots, the first thing you do when you get in there is get enough combo's to use that Drain skill. Then, just attack. Your HP will be raised as you attack.
NOTE: The drain does run out after about 3 minutes so be ready for when it comes down to charge another. ALWAYS KEEP AN EYE ON UR HP[/quote]
Lol. This is wrong. Your 106 psb is better than his 116 hellslayer. The speed goes to town on Zak.
You should be just fine. Don't listen to the other guys who tell you to get a slow polearm, stick with your PSB
You'll be fine. Look to improve your %Str and your weapon, in that order.

A hellslayer eh? Well first rule of Arans: Never use a slow weapon. His 106 PSB may be pretty terrible in W.Att(Or it's clean), but he'll still deal more DPS than with a Hellslayer, or any of the Slow(8) weapons, which is why the renegades PAs are terrible.
As for you, OP, you'll be fine. I ran with 16% Str on zak with that virtue buff; Combos + Buffs brought me to around 34k, and that took about 10 minutes. So having a Hero just guarantees that you'll make it. The main problems you'll have are the lack of max freeze standing. 70% is better than nothing, and throw on Mikhail's Link skill for use on the Top Right arm. Since your OSFB is undeveloped, stick with FT spam. If you still have points, just get a FS 20 book.
You'll need no more than 50 all cures, though get 100 anyway. It's possible for us to tank Zak's body, though just watch out for if 1/1 gets through the frames, or if Wep-Att Cancel comes up. Snow Charge is your preference, some arms are ice weak.
Uhh what 0.0
Ever since they came out, hasn't speed been the most important since you can pull off more attacks per minute?
Arcglaives do not have 106 attack clean. Yes they look cool but they are worth way more than what I have and I never got the typhoon feathers and the last 50 woods to make my own.
Every other polearm is slow which I'm pretty sure limits the number of overswings and final tosses I can do.
I'm also pretty sure scrolling a 106 attack clean psb with 60%'s is a massive waste.
But, yes I'm getting my mihile to 120 as soon as I can.
