I tried that and it didn't work. Got aggroed too fast, basically as soon as the marionette was anywhere near the circle.

That's actually a very nice idea, but the highest ranks of Crisis requires an 8-monster mob.
Unless you get two zombie spawn groups right next to each other or spam the boss room in their method, it's going to be much more difficult to rank Crisis in the higher ranks.
Instead, as I've suggested, Other Alchemists and Sulfur spiders have a large number of spawns, and you don't really need to worry about monsters surviving, if you do them on basic, int, or even advanced.
The latter, additionally, offers a far better reward in terms of exp and gold should you decide to complete it.
Question though: What's the approximate drop rate of Colossus from Amethyst and Crystal Golems? I've been fighting them recently, but I can tell that the drop rate is far less than 0.5%, which doesn't seem right. (Or maybe I'm just unlucky)
It more for the Training On slow enemies

A recommendation on the enchant section of your guide, you only listed 1 specific set of enchants, I think you should make multiple sections giving enchant sets from beginner -> endgame. Just a suggestion, not everyone doing puppetry can obtain the enchants you listed.

What are you fighting? Or were you lagging?

Crag cows aggro almost instantly. Dunno why.

i crisis on or a lil above the top dot of the symbol. then i load climactic crash and wait like an extra second before releasing. if they don't die by the initial hit, most of them will fall, bounce, and die in the circle anyhow.
ez <7 min runs on hm.
though there are times that i lag and then get knocked a bit around but whatever, lag happens when it happens.

Cycling Marionettes
Marionettes, after used in the field of combat for awhile will be worn out, so it'd be a good idea to rotate through both Puppets occasionally. Cycling will also help mob controlling by resetting mob AI.
By worn out do you mean they lose damage if the same puppet is summoned/used too long? Can anyone attach numbers to that statement?

Like Aubog said, only the Crag Cows aggro super fast. Either you're lagging or you're not loading it fast enough.

Not that important, but you're missing the AP costs of Act 1 and Act 6.

In regards to lag, I live in Australia.
In regards to not loading fast enough, do you need to be at a certain rank?

Act 7 loads faster at rank 1? i think. (really threw me off when i went on a different account and used act 7.)
Act 6 i am not entirely sure.
