I proceeded to load the usual W/P Dragon Slash/SY abuse and breezed through it. The difference between success and failure usually is not large.

I think the reason you actually won was because you were actually calling targets, not because of your build. If you haven't noticed, heroes and henchies tend to focus fire on the same target as you, unless you Ctrl call another one, which can be annoying at times. If you aren't calling targets, however, they tend to spread out there damage, and accomplish little. And since AI healers burn energy so quickly, your team is often dead before they do any real damage against tougher mobs. As they say, a good offense is the best defense.

I've found that my H/H are quite happy if I stay out of the fights - by dying preferably. That means they don't have to be concerned with me and my constantly changing priorities.

This is Mhenlo for me. Mhenlo seems to think my character doesn't matter. He seems to find it less effort to let her die and then rez her than to waste any actual heals on her.

Luckily the heroes don't seem to hold the same hostility.

What do you think they are doing when we sleep???? Lol

To the OP:

Alot of times Heros can manage themselves pretty well but, occasionally they do need your help. And Vise-versa.

I often use the mini map to point my h/h group at some red dots after i have , say, killed a z bounty boss off, if it is in an area where rep pts can be gained. 7 little ai friends usually crush most mobs. They could vq most areas without my help, if only they would move around on their own. But I am needed to tell them where to go next.
