The idea here is to get out of the stun effect of {{MonsterIcon|Terran}} faster than he can attack if you're under the effect of his slow (+33% attack interval inflicted by Grasping Roots). Weapons with a 2.6 second attack interval will get away in time, however weapons with a 3.0 second interval will not without the use of interval reduction bonuses; specifically, 3.0 second interval weapon need to be reduced to 2.9 seconds or faster. Therefore, it is only safe to use {{ItemIcon|Cloudburst Staff}} while using {{Icon|Surge I|type=aurora}} or {{Icon|Surge II|type=aurora}} at this point of progression. | ||

Check combat sim to see how many runes you will spend per hour, and make plenty of extras to survive for as long as necessary. | ||
Owning {{PetIcon|Otto}} or wearing {{ItemIcon|Elder Crown}} or {{ItemIcon|Sand Treaders}} in the [[Passive Slot]] will reduce your interval sufficiently enough to avoid the need to spend {{ItemIcon|Air Rune|Air Runes}} on Surge Auroras, making this particular method effectively foolproof. You can use the {{Icon|Fury II|type=aurora}} Aurora instead for better adjusted clear times if you meet one or more of these requirements. | |||
