But raisu palace, now that seems hard. Tried it once, seems like the hardest mission in the game.
Did raisu palace with my melee assassin and henchies
It's much easier with a good pug though.

the guild wars players soon learned assassins suck ... well they can't take dmg at all... henches won't get you far in this mission. You can interupt kunnavang but I forgot how. Take a rit with ritual lord spamming shelter and you'll be fine.

I got lucky with both missions, I got them done the first tries with the ppl group there... I think good players are even harder to find as time passes, I mean... my first character had much better group experience than my second one... may be it's just me...

im an Assassin...and im dang good at it too...the problem is that most ppl think assassins are tanks...which they are NOT!

My strategy is the enter there agro and dash behind my groups line as the enemies and my party cash together...after the enimies have picked there target (hopefully not me) i move on to provide the most efficient kill/s posible..... ex....monk or boss...and i use recall to get me out of ther in a pinch

Henchmen aren't dumb. The people who use them and can't beat missions are. I've henched every mission in both games with almost every class and have been able to get both mission and bonus, and masters all of them with my necromancer (only exception being Raisu Palace).

I did the mission with a full team of hench on both my ele and my ranger and it turned out to be the quickest I've ever done the mission. Key is interrupts, and calling multiple times to get the henchie to follow you. Oh and always, always pick up the res orb.

Is the luxon side greatly more difficult than kurzick? I did it in about 10 minutes with a blood necro friend and henchies and we didn't even know what we were doing..

I got masters on this mission with 15 henchies + me. You clearly arent equipping properly for the mission. Use your secondary class more to your advantage or go with sin ranged skills. Honestly its not that hard, just set up for all range degen, slow, and interrupt skills.

p.s. if any of the hench on *either* team are dead, make sure they get res'd by team mates or with the res orb before moving on.

In unwaking Waters, you always start with the other group at the same place. Someone here said he/she didnt know how to interrupt Kuunavang. Kuunavang needs 2-3 interrupt skills to stop her make daze (Broad Head Arrow, Concussion Shot, Beguiling Haze, etc) to interrupt her corrupted scale/ spore spells. Wild Blow or Wild strike to remove Corrupted Breath (Stance) and for Dark Chain Lightning (which its a skill, not a spell), have a Ritualist with shelter or if you're lucky, have 2 interrupt working at the same time.

I dont want to do my show off but I activate the cutscene without going throught the 1st Gate... she was stuck... and got Master as always

QFT. After losing the fifth time with my Whammo here, I decided to try after hearing this "silly" rumor more than once.

<--Masters with henchies. Biggest tip I can give you is NEVER FIGHT AFFLICTED AND KUUAVANG AT THE SAME TIME. Easy to do with henchmen that follow so loyally, you can simply kite away from Kuuavang when Afflicted draw near. She will eventually stop while the Flood will continue to chase you down, all the way to the start if you run that far. Killing the spores is easy too; lvl 10 stationary targets die quickly to the mage henchies AoE spells and (since all 15 members will follow your target calls) you can clean house and get back to the main course. Outside, I just used a Flatbow to train henchies to her. Inside, I wailed and she fell with a quickness.

Interupts are nice, but they weren't even needed in my case. Kuuavang is much more tame than when I helped a friend through here with my monk; just one more person in the game made her grouchy exterior show.

Meh, contact two Minion Masters and get them to group with you. Then it isnt even a mission anymore, its a party.

HALO REFERENCE :P Although the Aflicted do resemble the Flood I admit.

This mission can be done with henchies seriously. Follow advice given in this thread, and also not to take the Interupt henchman on the luxon side. Brilliant he is.

Interupt Kuunavang...and the mission is the easiest mission in the campaign (minus Cho's Estate).
