↖ Understanding the Abattoir of Zir

Abattoir of Zir is a new endgame challenge requiring strategic gameplay and optimized builds.

It is the primary objective here to increase the Tears of Blood glyph, which increases cumulative damage by 82% at the present time.

This is not just about pushing through higher tiers.

 

Optimal Glyph Farming Strategy

To optimize glyph farming efficiency, I recommend focusing on tier 6 and 7dungeons.

These levels provide a good balance between difficulty and glyph XP yield, allowing completion in about 2 to 2.5 minutes.

In this build, the Ball Lightning spell is enhanced with specific enchantments and gear choices in order to maximize damage output while ensuring survivability.

Teleport Enchant for mobility and damage reduction

Chain lightning for sustained vulnerable effects
