Finishing with Elonian Guardian, tried Gates of Madness for the third time, H/H, all fail.

First, I didn't watched the patrols very well and aggroed a torment claw, a demon group and a margo group, plus a pop up that didn't knew existed. Owned.

Second time, over aggroed at the rifts part, owned there too.

So lastly third time, overaggroed there too but fortunately I could recover from the near wipe. Finished the rifts, went to kill Shiro/Lich. I tried the same as in NM, rushed to kill Lich, then would leave Shiro to follow us will capping the shrines, and was continuosly Ctrl + click on him (the Lich) so henchies would focus fire on him.

Surprisingly, Shiro is killing my party, and he is at full health. When he gets to me, he does an amazing 116, and then 115, damage. I doubt anyone in my party was actually doing that damage to Shiro so that he could steal that amount of hp.

So any tips on how to do this? I brought Koss with only Wild Blow, and Cripslash build, MoW with SV + Enfeebling blood, Olias MM from Sabway, Mhenlo, Kihm, Sogolon and Herta.

Now the thing that bothers me, is how am I going to survive to cap the shrines, Lich doing 200 damage with his wand (hit me once before Shiro) and shiro 100+? Don't have Ursan/Pain Inverter.

Thanks for any tips you can provide me

Aggro the Lich by slowly hugging the right wall if I remember correctly. You can get him alone. Patience is key.

If you do wish to render Shiro useless. Lock MoW onto him and micro his movements with respect to where the group is so he doesn't die. Disable all his skills except EB.

one extremely easy mish if you h/h it :P even easier if you play with another person. once you finish clearing the rifts stay there away from shiro and the shrines so that you can't see them, enlarge your mission map so that you can see the shrine flag all the h/h to one shrine to cap it alone, since your not anywhere near shiro or the shrine nothing will be activated and your h/h will cap the shrine without a sweat, once all the shrines are capped bring back your h/h and take out the 2 remaining boss :P lich is easy no need to worry and shiro is cake with pain inverter sv and wild blow.

Ok just did it, mods can close this if they want.

Used the shrine capping with the flagging of the heros trick, and Lich wouldn't be pulled alone, so I pulled Shiro, killed him at the door with Koss holding aggro (died a few times) and then the Lich, same tactic. Although some of the shrines were recapped.

That was just in case someone was wondering.

If you use MM - minions can cause Shiro health to go down, so he starts hitting harder. We nearly had party wipe because of minions (Shiro health droped to 1/4 while he was fighting minions).
