-2 tanks?

-2 rangers? interupts?
-1 ele, water or air
-1 MM? minion master?

is this good?

Hi there,

Personally i wouldnt run with 2 tanks and 2 rangers, The golems in there can be activated, and setting 2 to defense and 1 to mele will help you greatly.

1 heal 1 prot would be useful, as we all know a good prot monk is better than heal anyday

An interupt ranger, 1 High Al Character, 2 monks, 2 eles ( preferably air or earth, they are resistant to fire dmg and immune to burning, plus cracked armour and weakness works wonders.)

then I suppose you can take mm, Jagged Bones probably for this dungeon as the enemies arent so numerous, but are quite strong.

Last slot is up to you really, extra monk if you arent so confident, or a paragon maybe for party-wide buffs and a little help with healing and protection.

Also dont forget your delver title skills, some can be very useful.

Hope that helps.

Definately not Fire or earth ele, as destroyers are resistant to both.

If this is hero hench i would suggest:

1) Mhenlo
2) Lina
3) Herta (wards)
4) Zho
5) You
6) Livia SS
7) Hayda Paragon w/ party buffs
8) MM if you have another necro, otherwise b-surge ele.

Change this depending on what class you are.

If going with people I would suggest:

2x WoH/Lod Hybrid Monks
1x SS Necro
1x MM
1x Imbagon
3x Optional, suggested air ele, water ele, interupt ranger/mesmer

well what profession you are might help. I was a nec and i usually play SS and have minion bomber + n/rt healer, but this time, i used:

me: N/Mo with BiP + Masochism and Pain Inverter <- important), and a lot of prot spells, including Aegis, Prot Spirit, Convert Hexes

N/ SS hero
N/Mo Minion Bomber Hero
N/Rt Healer Necro

Zho
Herta
Lina
Mhenlo

Did it with this set up first time in hard mode.

I set 2 golems to Melee, and 1 to Defense so they could tank a bit. Too easy Imo

Interupts help, but there's alot of physical damage guys in DD, so interupting will pretty much only help with the final boss.

When we do this mission, we normally roll with a SY/TNtF para (or a warrior with SY-keep in mind this isn't neccessary as I've done it both NM and HM without either), couple of tanks and some eles. Keep in mind that if your eles don't have anything but fire spells, make sure none of the them rely on buring (i.e. No Searing Flames!) as Destroyers don't burn.

I normally have the golems set up as 2 defense and 1 melee.

Protting is always a good choice.

i will be a ranger, and interupt myself

however, sometimes the hero's do not use protection spells well enough!

and im tired of controlling my heroes spells...

Interupt the Enemies instead, will make it easier

But on a serious note, you shouldnt have to micro-manage heros, i never have, occasionally flag them away from agro, just take it slow, its not a time mission, so make sure everything is as u want it before u go in, and try to lure if its giving u problems

i hope that helps a bit, but without team builds im not sure what other changes to suggest

what is a good protection hero build?

sometimes they just go CRAZY on protective spirit or anything...

2 Prots (no healz for us)
1 BHA ranger
1 Vekk
