Anyone beaten the Flame Djinn in "the last assault" mission yet?

I tried it 5 times now and we cant kill even one.
Acctually, we cant even bring his health down to half!!
Plz help me

P.S....I HATE DJINN

Elena · Sep 09, 2005, 09:41 PM // 21:41

i killed one during my enslavement using 3 furnace gaurdians to help me :P

Diablo??? · Sep 09, 2005, 09:54 PM // 21:54

same here, in fact my character was dead, laying on the ground, as I watched the three furnace guardians pummel the djinn to death. the quest was "fire in the hole", but if theres another quest later with more djinns... I shutter to think about it... lol

Nisha · Sep 09, 2005, 10:29 PM // 22:29

Hmm, I killed the Fire in the Hole one rather easily. I haven't taken on the Last Assault yet. Might be because I Maelstromed it.

gabe99 · Sep 09, 2005, 10:54 PM // 22:54

I had the same problem with the quest... just getting to that part is challenging enough...However, a ranger with winter might help quite a bit. I was thinking of making sure that was in the group next time i tried

Antilles · Sep 09, 2005, 11:04 PM // 23:04

Run him into the furnace guardians, then attack him, he goes down crazy fast. Or just run him under the smashers and he gets pwned.

octaviancmb · Sep 09, 2005, 11:05 PM // 23:05

Or, hey, I hear there's this profession called a "Mesmer" or something. They might be able to help kill it.

Nah, they totally suck.

Savio · Sep 10, 2005, 12:40 AM // 00:40

Of course Mesmers suck. They can only shut down enemies and prevent them from using skills, they can't do direct damage so they must suck.

GreatLich · Sep 10, 2005, 12:51 AM // 00:51

Hmm, I tried to takeon the Djinn from "fire in the hole" with my ranger ( on full interrupt mode ) with the henches.
That crazy "consuming flame" skill or whatever... I couldn't interrupt it and when i did, she/he/it used flourish to get it back up again... interrupting both never seemed to happen, until ofcourse... Devona went berserk on the thing, seemingly pinning it to the ground with knockdowns, hurrah for Devona! Cynn ofcourse had to butt in with a firestorm

completely healing the djinn with it, booh Cynn!

Cunning · Sep 10, 2005, 12:55 AM // 00:55

I don't believe the Flame Djinn uses many spells at all, he also has a hex removal, making a mesmer not too useful.

gou · Sep 10, 2005, 12:57 AM // 00:57

it's main attack deal 400 damage to one target, or if 2 are nearby 200 dmg to each and so on, so just get every team member to crowd around it. It won't do less damage total but it will spread the damage across all the targets.
This uber attack also heal the djin for the amount it damages a single target, so again crowding around it will help. Like others have said, use the NPCs to soak a bit of damage and reduce it's healing further. Very easy to kill this way.

Vermilion Okeanos · Sep 10, 2005, 12:59 AM // 00:59

I believe mainly you need to shut down the flourish... you will probably need the like of diversion and related... interruption is just not fast enough for flourish.

ristridin · Sep 10, 2005, 03:01 AM // 03:01

wow

thanks for all replies....hope i can take on 3...because there are 3 of them

EmperorTippy · Sep 10, 2005, 03:20 AM // 03:20

Ok now how come thsi was so hard for all of you?

I did this on my first try with henchies and I was a fire elemtal. I used Cynn, Devona, Little Thom, Mhenlo, Lina, Aidan, and Eve. The only SF quest that was milidy hard was the priest one becuase I had to kee prunning back and forth. All of the others I did first or second try with no problems.

I have also done it with a balanced guilde team and had no trouble. I've actually been complaining how easy SF has been compared to UW and the like.

My advice to you is to get a balanced team and all concentrate fire on the flame dude. You need some pretty good monking but its not to bad as henchies could do it.

ristridin · Sep 10, 2005, 03:26 AM // 03:26

how did u do it with hench?
i tried it with hench but when u need to kill the 3 binders at the (almost) same time i always got one back up befor i killed the third....tried it for like 20-30 minutes

EmperorTippy · Sep 10, 2005, 03:49 AM // 03:49

Speed increasing skills and switched to E/R with some traps and pulled the baddies closer to the dude and lots of luck.

Ok I think there is a bit of confusion here.

Emperor Tippy is talking about the infiltration quest where you fight the ONE flame djinn that was causing problems.

The OP is talking about the Last assault quest, the one where you have to go deep within to where the Golem is and there are THREE Flame Djinn.

Zenny · Sep 10, 2005, 04:02 AM // 04:02

Well just did the 3 Djinn part. Lots of deaths, but even with a heavy death penalty we pulled through.

Like Gou said for the strategy:

That is all exactly who it works. And I think it's very possible to pull one at a time. They aggro in a weird way so it's not easy to find it but different angles will warrant different pulling results.

Good Luck~

Its hard to find a group for Final Assault! I need a group for this mission.

Here's a way to beat this mission.

Party:
3 Healers
3 Tanks
2 Nukers
(For those who are equipped with Heal Party skill, BRING IT! ITS VITAL)

Get your Morale Boost up to 10% before you fight the 3 guys on the platforms near the robot. When you finally make it to where the giant robot is located, kill all the Guardians first. When you've done that, split into 3 groups (each must have 1 healer and one tank, the nukers can chose any group). Each group must select one of the three enemies standing on the platforms to target. Tanks and/or Nukers kill them while the Healers heal the Tanks/Nukers. When its time to fight the Djinn, there will be 3 of them...kill one at a time. Don't use enchantments when fighting the Djinn, everyone must bunch up and targetting the Djinn. Keep spamming Heal Party for this, the Djinn will divide the 400 dmg to everyone near it so bunch up near the Djinn. Keep repeating this for every Djinn you fight.

P.S. If you have high DP for the end from the Djinn...keep going, don't give up and don't leave the mission.
