	In general, rares are not required for a well-equipped and experienced fellowship. The only useful rares for this run are [[War Magic]] rares, but [[Mana Conversion]] rares can improve performance when casting [[Tusker Fists]], which uses a lot of mana. Since [[Spectral ~~Rares~~]] are no-drop and very cheap to get (only two [[Ancient Mhoire Coin]]s), it is nice to have them if the fellowship starts losing time. If truly desired, [[Blood Drinker (Spell)\|Blood Drinker]] rares can be used, but it is suggested by the authors that these be saved for PK fights.

	Nothing kills [[Olthoi]] dead quite like [[Olthoi Slayer]] weapons. Using wall spells isn't recommended here because there is a large (10-15) second gap between when the larvae spawn and when the actual [[Olthoi]] do, which makes most of the efforts wasted. Clearing the larvae before the other [[Olthoi]] spawn is extremely difficult due to their long death animation.		Nothing kills [[Olthoi]] dead quite like [[Olthoi Slayer]] weapons.

	The [[Swarm Demon]]s have a lot of health, so vulning them to piercing is an overall win. The Commando should do this while the rest of the mages focus on dealing damage.

If it doesn't do piercing and you have don't have Life Magic specialized, then use an Armor Rending pierce weapon or just heal others. Healers or weak mages/archers should jump on top of others in the corner to avoid taking damage.		The [[Swarm Demon]]s have a lot of health, so vulning them to piercing is an overall win.
