Walkthrough
Four waves of Stone Summit dwarves will come from three sides. There is also a conversation between Ural, the warrior boss of the Stone Summit and Dwayna.

Most of the friendly dwarven NPCs will be killed in the first few moments of the battle. However, Ural, Orozar, Jalis, and Alkar will resurrect soon after being killed. Players can choose to defend from their side (the north, nearest the portal to Varajar Fells) to get NPC assistance, or they could defend the south side and leave the Stone Summit to attack them over and over again.

Taskmasters Beld and Larn appear from north side. Taskmaster Nard appears on the south side, and Marlin Steelfist appears from the east side.

Start by defending the east side. Flag your party to stand just outside of the tunnel. Take out the Stone Summit Gnashers first then healers or Dolyak Masters. After you've fought off all four waves go to the north side. Flag your party in the middle of the stairs to create a bottleneck. Obviously bringing a minion master is crucial. While your party is sitting in the bottleneck protected by minions and tanks you can nuke them from afar. User your tank(s) to take out, again, Stone Summit Gnashers, Dolyak Masters, healers, etc. Finally take out the waves coming from the south side. Marlin Steelfist will come from the north side. Go for the healer and sages first. After that the rest shouldn't be a problem.

Note that the quest ends after defeating the bosses. Also, on the east and north sides, Stone Summit Gnashers will build up large minion armies. One of the easiest ways to clear out the minions is to bring Verata's Aura on you or your heroes. This steals the enemy minions and kills off the ones that can't be taken.
