Yup sets make it much more tolerable. Not easier, but a better.
I was already using stun sets and provoke sets. Again, no clue why it didn't occur to me to use sets for skill cooldown.
Now my issue wil lbe Lizards 5...I don't have anyone but Ramntu's A2 that is capable of doing more than 50% HP in one skill, but I can't seem to drag the fight out long enough to get 10 of those...
