I'm getting hammered on this mission for nightfall. The closest I've gotten to beating it was the portals, but I got wiped by titan abominations. Any ideas to get around these pests and good hero ideas you can give me will be greatly appreciated.

Use pvxwiki builds and an ST ritualist.

All ready using their hero builds as well as a st ritualist. My inner debate is whether or not to drop a monk for a blood magic necro to power my mesmers

hmmm, what i know bout the mission is that healing and taking time is better then speeding

by doing the portals, do you mean the ones with the spawns? or the altars inside with the two -spoiler bosses- ?

cause if your using good pvx-hero builds you should be doing fine with the portals with the spawns.... (as long as you take your time to pull and do one portal at a time)

If your heroes all fully runed up and have decent weapons and you still fail, you are most likely overaggroing (which isn't too hard to do in this mission). As Akelarumi has said, take the time to pull groups one at a time and refrain from trying to rush it. At the portals you might do good to pay some attention to the patrol paths as well.

good luck^^

You may want to use a heroway then if you are using wiki builds and still can't deal with groups.
