Tips

 * A Minion Master (maybe even two) is strongly recommended in this dungeon as there is an overabundance of corpses and all enemies leave bodies. Not only that, but the corpse-denial will reduce the threat of the Nettle Necromancers.


 * Moderate Hex Management and condition management are recommended as the dungeon has necromancers, mesmers, paragons (burning) as well as traps that inflict poison.


 * Due to the abundance of mesmers and necromancers, expect substantial energy denial and occasional enchant removal.


 * The Blooming Nettle are monks who spam Glimmer of Light and have a large energy pool, energy denial is no way effective against them or most other mobs in the dungeon. The blooming nettle also spawn necromancer plant mobs (each monk can produce multiple necromancers).


 * Backfire and diversion are recommended for this dungeon. Backfire is extremely effective against Z'him Monns as he spams Renewing Surge.


 * The traps that poison and cripple are scattered through out the dungeon and are single-trigger only. There are many of them on the path to the boss chamber, and at least one within the chamber itself.


 * AoE is also recommended for this dungeon


 * Entering rooms where friendly NPCs are standing triggers an event that has an army of mobs bear down upon the friendly NPCs. It is best to trigger the event and then stand back while the two factions fight it out. Interference will result in the entire army aggroing on you.


 * Generally it is advised to play for the Red Side for the easier boss-fight at the end and certain aggro events through the first floor of the dungeon. Play for the Yellow Side if you wish a slightly more challenging experience.
