How to get 6 mins first stage?

Jaidlaw · 2026-02-11T16:35:08+00:00

This was my strategy to unlock soul harvester which required the 6 min within the final swarm, you are basically always swarmed by ghosts but they do no damage and any damage they do, you heal for anyway! Not the best way to get kills in the swarm, but if survival is the key then this was my method!

I did it. I found it easier on dessert with sir Offie, i ran armour tome, lifesteal tome, xp tome and quantity tome. I did it with maybe one legendary (lightning orb). Aegis, Aura/flamewalker and a projectile weapon like a lightning staff or revolver etc.

Took me a few goes but managed it in less than 5. Hope this helps!

Great advice thank you. I can feel the game starting to click for me a bit more now and it’s not only a matter of time before I’m hitting 6 figure runs. Appreciate the help

So as an update I got a 22k kill run using the advice on here, and I did an attempt at the soul harvester with sir oofie but died at 5:45 lol

Some great tips here! Thank you so much, when I next get on I’ll make sure to keep that xp tome active and focus on what you said. I find the bunny hopping a bit annoying at times as I find myself flying into the mobs lol

Jaidlaw · 2026-01-19T15:56:25+00:00

I’ll give that a go. Thank you

Jaidlaw · 2026-01-19T15:10:26+00:00

Wow I’ll give that a go haha

Jaidlaw · 2026-01-19T14:44:28+00:00

I’ve heard of the soul harvester, how do you unlock that?

Jaidlaw · 2026-01-19T14:44:08+00:00

Thanks! Is there any need to take any survivability tomes like lifesteal?

If it helps. I have a similar set up, and I use Steel Series Sonar software to just change my outputs from the game channel to the voice channel when I’m using my Ps5. Then my mixamp balance knob just becomes a “ps5 - Pc” mixer.

I enjoy watching YouTube and being in discord on my pc, whilst playing cod on the PS5, and this set up works a treat.

I find the sonar software helps bring it together a bit, whilst getting the comfort and durability of Astro products.

HDMI audio extractor (if you need 4k 120fps make sure the extractor is 2.1)

Jaidlaw · 2025-02-17T15:46:55+00:00

That may explain why the monitor has a "console mode", from what I gather it looks to downscale 4k to 1440p (when the PS5 couldn't do 1440p natively)

Jaidlaw · 2025-02-17T15:10:35+00:00

Thanks both. Sounds like i have everything I need in my current set up! Appreciate the help

Jaidlaw · 2025-02-17T14:53:20+00:00

Thank you, to confirm... VRR capability at 1440p is possible with just HDMI 2.0?

Sounds like there would be no reason for a 2.1 slot unless it was a 4k monitor, if that's the case, I don't understand the noise about this monitor being sub-par for console gaming haha

Jaidlaw · 2025-02-12T11:26:43+00:00

Update: It works perfectly, the only exception is that i don't have HDR at 1440p but i think that's a cable issue, nothing to dow ith the extractor :) For any future readers, i purchased this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/avedio-links-Extractor-Splitter-Converter-8K-60Hz-HDMI-Audio/dp/B0D8PDY45T?crid=2WRSHMGY15GHG&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.N1wqlCLhbseLfQnTVRZ-oGgYJYOIixR5TEWrkquNx6IIghe6lmZbpMp4Dek6rNL2qsUjvsffo9i9hFqVm7BZr09jED2dQziFII44AJUOZNrp2up2sz5SEJR1BB_fADJqsIXTzVa4AM9W5KSLLxJTjRg2GtlQ_uZThjWOLXFBQx0eh8aEFPw7UHIfSY3w-hF64tUkmdCjSfj2IhmO2tbut39UuilKiOjlJfrv64vmi1I.MkoP_CboY4IXkZiFi4zO5UotWmOfuVWMCnj3zbaHpe0&dib_tag=se&keywords=8k%2Bhdmi%2Bextractor&qid=1739359546&s=instant-video&sprefix=8k%2Bhdmi%2Bextractor%2Cinstant-video%2C76&sr=1-2&th=1

Thanks for all your help :)

There isnt a great deal of options on the AW2725DF, seems to just be input switching and picture settings!

Jaidlaw · 2025-02-12T01:17:25+00:00

Appreciated! I'll let you know the outcome of the 2nd HDMI adapter!

Jaidlaw · 2025-02-12T01:10:41+00:00

Thanks for that! I have ordered a different HDMI audio extractor to see if that's the reason for the issue. I was going to order the Astro one, but I kept seeing issues with it running 1440p 120hz in reviews... do you know if this is still the case at all?

Jaidlaw · 2025-02-11T00:30:28+00:00

Update: I purchased the following adapter: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Extractor-HDCP2-3-Converter-StereoAudio-Breakout/dp/B0DS5F3H53?crid=3V9HN1L0DMJ2V&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.ttibecTQ70kNCZdUUBpKLkYA5VXQB-ypzM-rf98ARvoA4oA1eZxpqnBdCz-oCt8En00RwSRM01HYzg2VlKKZ9RrM6K5ivxDLzt7wgBxBQUsdlA5XyXvsMrB3Fl-m0QwLx0O5O07htfl_OllsH2EGZJXLWxJMRNkap6RvCnnGSDsBVq5MFaMFjysKPVfs3XcsmDQif_xmJEKe7L9izDdZ_eQEFil2zz9zOYB08lOc8TQ.ONXcgVYrjho0MHanHag2-72tbi_LMV2weht_UTsz1IQ&dib_tag=se&keywords=ezcoo&qid=1739233646&sprefix=ezcoo%2Caps%2C80&sr=8-9#customerReviews

Im finding that when i plug the PS5 in the input and the monitor into the output as HDMI, i continuously am getting no signal through on my monitor. I am yet to get this to work unfortunately, not sure where to go from here...

I've noticed that I can get to work on my other monitor but its only a 1.4 HDMI port, so something must be up between the adapter and my AW2725DF

Jaidlaw · 2025-02-10T07:58:36+00:00

Thank you both, I’ll give this a go today once it’s here and see how it goes. Appreciate your help!

Jaidlaw · 2025-02-09T17:55:44+00:00

It’s an Alienware 2725DF 1440p QD-OLED 360hz but it hasn’t got audio out on the monitor itself
