Talk:Abaddon's Gate (mission)/Zaishen Quest

After many tries, a successful Masters in HM with Hench/Hero
Just completed HM with hench/heroes in 19:08. Some notes: My character: W/Me with Sword Skills, 12 Dom and Lightbringer's Gaze, Cry of Frustration, Wastrel's Worry, Backfire (next time Empathy as well). General Morghan with Cautery Signet, Signet of Return, Remedy Signet and an assortment of Motivation skills. Another person claimed to do the HM mission with H/H in 5:24 - so there are better ways, but this worked, albeit just barely. Good luck to all! Separ 07:38, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Remember to activate your Lightbringer.
 * Backfire works well against the Graven Monolith Mesmer form (Empathy may be better, but BF worked fine for me)
 * Heroes: Talkora & Dunkoro with LoD and an assortment of hex and condition removal.
 * Henchmen: Odurra, Sologon, Kihm, Herta
 * GM pair attack technique: Backfire (and Empathy) the most distant GM of the pair. Call the other and group kill it then kill the first.  Unflag and attack center pair of GM in the same way.
 * Overall Technique: Flag party a bit up center approach from where sides and center path meets. Use bow to lure pairs of GM from either side.  Attack as outlined above.  Call Abbadon when it becomes vulnerable, hit with LB Gaze and spam WW until 15 second mark.  Flag party at original flag point and repeat.  The party needs to be clear of the location where the central pair of GM will spawn before they reappear.
 * Watch for Torment Claws - they take priority - interrupt Torment Slash. Multiple spawns may occur.


 * I can usually do it in 10-15 minutes as an elementalist with LG, WW, and Ward of Stability to counter the (seemingly constant) knockdowns. I've never seen it done in 5, though.  &mdash;Dr Ishmael Diablo_the_chicken.gif 14:30, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
